Description
Holy Monday 2020 - As part of the Gospel reading tonight from the Gospel of St. Mark Chapter 14, we have the story of the woman who poured out her alabaster jar of ointment upon our Lord Jesus Christ as an act of love and worship. That ointment would have been worth a year's wages and to many it seemed impractical and unreasonable to waste it all on just one person and all in one moment. This homily reflects on the reality that love is never limited by reason and practicality, in fact these things can often limit love. Tonight we see this love on display toward Christ and are compelled to develop a love like this woman had in her heart for our Lord.
