The Perfume Bottle
He told them, the ones who followed
risking it all, the shadows who call souls
He told them, the ones who saw her
offer Him a kindness beyond a heart’s words
He told them, as they criticized her giving
that this woman would be remembered
always and forever…
He told them, the ones who didn’t understand
the gentlest blessings often come
from hearts who bleed hope, souls who believe
in giving, without expectations
giving, with no thought of a blessing
He told them, she will be remembered eternally
always and forever, her gift went down in history
she’s living proof of God’s wisdom, God’s intimacy
the gentlest touch of light, unfading
proof that God, in all His glory, never forgets
when someone offers Him their finest treasure!
Matthew 26:13 King James Version (KJV)
Verily I say unto you, Wheresoever this gospel shall be preached in the whole world, there shall also this, that this woman hath done, be told for a memorial of her.
