Outline:

1. The Choice Was for Him (Mark 14:3)

• The woman’s act of love was:
  • Not about others – She wasn’t seeking approval.
  • Not about options – She made an intentional choice.
  • Not about opportunity – She didn’t do it for gain.
• It was all about and all for Him (Jesus).

2. The Cost Was Worth It (Mark 14:3 – “Very Precious”)

• Sacrificial Giving:
  • The perfume was expensive—possibly a life’s savings.
  • Mary gave her best, not leftovers. (Malachi 1:6-14)
• Selfless Worship:
  • Jesus said, “She hath done a good work for me”
