Who Do We Appreciate - Mama's Pearl

"Who Do We Appreciate?"

Read: Matthew 26: 6-13; Mark 14:3-9; Luke 7: 37-38; John 12: 1-8; I Corinthians 13: 1-3.

Cheer leaders say...two, four, six, eight...who do we appreciate?

How do we show that appreciation?

We say, "Thank you."

1. Do we give a compliment?
2. As parents, do we build up our children?
3. As children, do we help our parents?
4. As a husband, do we give our wives little gifts, maybe a note sweetly phrased or a rose?
5. As a wife, do we build up our husband's and speak well of him? Bring him a cup of coffee or his favorite drink, tell him how nice he looks.
6. Give compliments and tell each other daily that we love one another?

Mary, the woman, honored Jesus with all she had, her most valuable possession she gave to him. (John 12: 3-11)

What is your most valuable possession? Are you willing to give it all to Jesus? Will you risk ridicule and rejection to show your appreciation for Him. Do you love Him more than what others may say about you?

Be thankful, be bold, dare to be courageous and pour out your love for a King who was disguised as a man...let the odor of ointment from the broken alabaster box, fill the room, a sweet smelling savor...He was born a man, but returns a King!
