What is the significance of Mary’s gift during worship?

Answered in 1 source

Mary’s costly gift reflects her deep love for Christ and the value she placed on His grace.

Mary's offering of expensive spikenard to anoint Jesus serves as a powerful picture of worship. By pouring out her most valuable possession, she demonstrates that Christ is worth everything. This act represents an acknowledgment of His grace and mercy in her life, especially after raising her brother Lazarus from the dead. The significance lies not just in the material value of the gift, but in her expression of love and devotion. It challenges believers to consider what they are willing to offer to Christ in worship.
