Creativity and Love

John 12.1-11  Psalm 36.5-11
Jean 12.1-11   Psaume 36.5-11


 Isaiah 42.1-9  Esaie 42.1-9  Hebrews 9.11-15  Hébreux 9.11-15






The excerpt from John along with the words of Psalm 36.5-11 can speak directly into our lives as we near the end of Lent. Jesus approves of Mary’s actions of worship even as they seem to oppose the possibility of giving to those in need. Recognising the worthiness in sitting down and humbly serving through small acts of worship, we are able to feel God’s presence among us. May we use this final week of Lent to quietly remind ourselves of the God we know. When Easter arrives, Jesus may encourage us to turn our worship into serving the poor, but today we are called to see Christ in the room with us. Perhaps today you will be able to pour your eyes over the words of the psalm, allow them to wash over you and fill your mind with a great sense of God’s creativity and love.
