The Origin of the Alabaster Box

Jesus was in Bethany at the home of Simon, a man who had leprosy.  During supper, a woman came in with a beautiful jar of expensive perfume.  She broke the seal and poured the perfume over his head.  (Mark 14:3 NLT)

That jar of expensive perfume was once called an alabaster box.  It was a beautifully made box which held precious contents - ointment or perfume that was worth an entire year's salary.  The woman who poured the perfume on Jesus' head withheld none of it for herself; she gave Him all she had in a simple act of worship. 

We can all live lives of worship with the gifts and talents that God gives us.  Mary's alabaster box was full of expensive perfume.  What is in your alabaster box?  How will you worship Christ today?
