CHAPTER 14 - WHY DID SHE DO THAT? – A RESPONSE OF GRATITUDE
Not only are believers recipients of great mercy but we also receive amazing grace. God’s grace is His extension of favor that we have not earned and do not deserve. It is difficult to acknowledge God’s unmerited favor without being overwhelmed with gratitude. The responses of Mary, the sister of Lazarus, and Zacchaeus, the tax collector, to the mercy of Jesus are examined to illustrate expressions of gratitude through giving.
Reference Scripture:
John 12:1 – 8 (Mary and the anointing perfume)
Supporting Scriptures:
Luke 10:41 – 42 (Mary chooses the better part, sitting at Jesus’ feet)
John 11:25 (I am the resurrection)
John11: 14 – 15 (I am glad I was not there)
Luke 19: 1 – 10 ( Zacchaeus)
