John 12:2-3 KJV
There they made him a supper; and Martha served: but Lazarus was one of them that sat at the table with him.
Then took Mary a pound of ointment of spikenard, very costly, and anointed the feet of Jesus, and wiped his feet with her hair: and the house was filled with the odour of the ointment.
Scofield's Bible in the center column says, "As Martha stands for service and Lazarus for communion, so Mary shows us the worship of a grateful heart. Others before her had come to his feet to have their needs met; she came to give Him His due."
Great thought! May we come the house of God to give Him His due.
