The Bridge pt. 6

The Bridge - To the other side

Some people miss what’s right in front of them. The disciples didn’t understand what was coming. The crowds that had followed Jesus were focused on the moment, not the mission. But Mary saw it; she knew things would never be the same.

In John 12:1-8, Mary anoints Jesus with expensive perfume, an act of worship that some call wasteful. But Jesus calls it preparation. She was doing something no one else had considered, acknowledging that Jesus was about to give everything for us.

This week in The Bridge, we reflect on what it means to step forward into what God has for us. Mary’s act of faith reminds us that following Jesus requires trust, sacrifice, and the courage to embrace what comes next. Are we ready to step to the other side of faith?
