297 中翻英(36) Mary of
今天二月十四日的曠野筵席有道美味, 但必須及時的品嚐, 否則就會失去宅的味道。
「她在我身上做的，是一件美事。她所做的是盡她所能的。」（可 14:6-8）
當主回來時，我們要面對面看見主，我相信我們必將一切珍寶，應有盡有的都放在祂腳前。但在今天——今天我們為主做了些什么？
「她所做的是盡她所能的。」 在這里，不是說為主用了多少，乃是問還剩下多少？ 主的稱贊是從「盡」字來的。沒有盡就沒有愛。愛神，是應當盡心、盡性、盡力、盡意地愛的，可是多少時候，我們待主竟還不如待一個普通的朋友！
當馬利亞打破了玉瓶，將香膏傾倒在主頭上的數日以后，另有一些婦女也于清早要去膏主的身體。她們在那七日的第一日清早，有沒有達成她們的目的呢？因主耶穌已經復活了！只有一個人成功的膏了主耶穌的身體，那就是伯大尼的馬利亞。她在主被釘十架以前，及時預先膏了祂。其他的婦女們都已經太遲了，因為祂已經复活了！所以我們現今迫在眉睫的問題乃是：「今天我應在主身上做些什么」！
"What she did to me was a beautiful thing. She did what she could." (Mark 14:6-8)
When the Lord returns, we will see Him face to face, and I believe we will lay all our treasures and everything we have at His feet. But today—what are we doing for the Lord today?
“She did what she could.”Here, it does not mean how much is used for the Lord, but how much is left? The Lord's praise comes from the word "to the end". There is no love without end. To love God, we should love with all our heart, soul, strength, and mind, but how often do we treat the Lord worse than we treat an ordinary friend!
A few days after Mary broke the
alabaster and poured the ointment on the Lord's head, some other women also
went to anoint the Lord's body early in the morning. Did they accomplish their
purpose early in the morning on the first day of the week? Because the Lord
Jesus has gone! Only one person succeeded in anointing the body of the Lord
Jesus, and that was Mary of
