What does John 12 1 to 11 mean?

She did not care for what other people may say. She did it out of her love for Jesus. The Gospel continues to call each one to love and serve our Lord Jesus even when other people ridicule us. May our “costly perfume” spread its fragrance to our needy brothers and sisters.

John 12:1-11

Let us all remember that we are in the Holy Presence of God. In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen.

Gospel: John 12:1-11

Six days before the Passover, Jesus came to Bethany, where Lazarus was, whom Jesus had raised from the dead. There they made him a supper; Martha served, and Lazarus was one of those at table with him. Mary took a pound of costly ointment of pure nard and anointed the feet of Jesus and wiped his feet with her hair; and the house was filled with the fragrance of the ointment. But Judas Iscariot, one of his disciples (he who was to betray him), said, “Why was this ointment not sold for three hundred denarii and given to the poor?” This he said, not that he cared for the poor but because he was a thief, and as he had the money box he used to take what was put into it. Jesus said, “Let her alone, let her keep it for the day of my burial. The poor you always have with you, but you do not always have me.” When the great crowd of the Jews learned that he was there, they came, not only on account of Jesus but also to see Lazarus, whom he had raised from the dead. So the chief priests planned to put Lazarus also to death, because on account of him many of the Jews were going away and believing in Jesus. The next day a great crowd who had come to the feast heard that Jesus was coming to Jerusalem.

Reflection

Jesus wants to dine with us today. He wishes to listen to our stories of joy and pain. With His loving presence everything will be alright. Now, what can we give back in return to His love and care for us? Can we be like Mary who offered her costly treasure? She did not care for what other people may say. She did it out of her love for Jesus. The Gospel continues to call each one to love and serve our Lord Jesus even when other people ridicule us. May our “costly perfume” spread its fragrance to our needy brothers and sisters.

LGP states that, zeal for service is a whole hearted giving of oneself to the service of others, in gratuity and generosity, in creativity and fortitude, in compassion and commitment. Lasallians follow the examples of St. John Baptist De La Salle who served the poor with zeal and fidelity. Clearly, our founder patterned his life to Jesus. He brought out his “costly perfume” so that the children of France may smell its fragrance. Its scent is still fresh after three hundred years. With this, we are called to continue spreading the same fragrance to all.

Prayer for the Tercentenary of the Founder’s passing to Eternal Life (adapted)

God, our Father and Mother, You love us with endless mercy. You call us to be your sons and daughters. Give us a generous heart. A heart of flesh that “burns within us.” A heart always willing to love. A compassionate heart for those who suffer. A heart where there is a place for all Lasallians around the world. Lord Jesus, You call us to follow you. Give us the courage to live our commitment. Teach us to go beyond our borders. Teach us to discover you in the lowliest. Teach us to look with the eyes of faith. Teach us to share our mission with all Lasallians of the whole world. Holy Spirit, You call us to live with joy. Fill us with your grace to live the values of the Gospel. Fill us with your grace to be active members in your Church. Fill us with your grace so that we may be credible witnesses, together with the entire Lasallian Family, in the midst of our world. Together and by association, we wish to renew our Lasallian commitment, and, in an attitude of thanksgiving, celebrate these 300 years of life. We ask this through Mary’s intercession, Queen and Mother of the Christian Schools. And through the intercession of Saint John Baptist de La Salle, Universal Patron of Christian Educators. Amen. Let us pray with one Lasallian Heart whose Commitment is to nurture Life. Now, in a very special way, we pray for the complete healing of our Brother Superior General, Br. Bob Schieler FSC.
