In a room full of people, a woman stepped forwardโuninvited, unashamed, and completely surrendered. She carried an alabaster box, something valuable, something personal, something tied to her future. And in one moment, she broke it at the feet of Jesus.

We all carry our own โgloryโโour achievements, reputation, possessions, relationships, and even the things we take pride in. These are not always wrong, but when they take the place of God, they become a hindrance to His glory in our lives.
Jesus does not force His way into our lives. He waits to be invited.
โCome to meโฆโ (Matthew 11:28)
The invitation is open to all.

Like the woman, ๐ฐ๐ ๐๐ซ๐ ๐๐๐ฅ๐ฅ๐๐ ๐ญ๐จ ๐๐ข๐ฌ๐ฆ๐๐ง๐ญ๐ฅ๐ ๐จ๐ฎ๐ซ ๐ฉ๐๐ซ๐ฌ๐จ๐ง๐๐ฅ ๐ ๐ฅ๐จ๐ซ๐ฒ ๐๐ญ ๐ญ๐ก๐ ๐๐๐๐ญ ๐จ๐ ๐๐๐ฌ๐ฎ๐ฌ.
The world teaches us to build, to keep, to secure everything for ourselves. But Jesus teaches the opposite:
โWhoever wants to save their life will lose itโฆโ (Luke 9:24)
True life is found in surrender.
The woman broke generational value for something eternal. What she gave up became a testimony remembered across the world. What she lost in the natural, she gained in eternal significance.
So the question is not what you have.
The question is: ๐๐ซ๐ ๐ฒ๐จ๐ฎ ๐ฐ๐ข๐ฅ๐ฅ๐ข๐ง๐ ๐ญ๐จ ๐ฅ๐๐ฒ ๐ข๐ญ ๐๐จ๐ฐ๐ง?
Because when we release our glory, we make room for His.
And His glory is the only one that lasts.
