Gospel Reading: Jn 12:1-11
"Mary took a liter of costly perfumed oil made
from genuine aromatic nard and anointed the
feet of Jesus and dried them with her hair; the
house was filled with the fragrance of the
oil." (Jn 12:3)
Consider the way in which Mary humbled herself before Jesus
and ask God to inspire within you the virtue of true humility
