Fool For You

Matthew 26:10-13

Aware of this, Jesus said to them, “Why are you bothering this woman? She has done a beautiful thing to me. The poor you will always have with you, but you will not always have me. When she poured this perfume on my body, she did it to prepare me for burial. I tell you the truth, wherever this gospel is preached throughout the world, what she has done will also be told, in memory of her.”

Andy's part:

This woman showed Jesus her love and obedience by sacrificing her time, money, and dignity. Are you willing to do the same?

Catherine's part:

This passage makes me think of the Nichole Nordeman song 'Fool For You'. It's about losing our worldy dignity in order to show our love for God.

'Unaware of popularity,
And unconcerned with dignity
You made me free.
That's proof enough for me.

I would be a fool for You,
Only if You asked me to,
A simpleton who's only thinking of
The cause of love.'
