Anointing Herself by Raymond A. Foss
Joining herself with Him
in her act of love
for Him, her giving
in anointing his feet
joining as servant
washing His feet
as he would do, for them
on his last night
sharing love, servanthood
with the king, at his feet
always his disciple, his servant
anointing herself too,
in the washing of his feet
with her hair, caressing him
in a follicle towel, submitting herself
at his feet, in love
anointing, dead to the world
rising in victory
getting it right,
to serve him


March 28, 2007 9:38
Based on the sermon,
“Extravagant Love” by
the Reverend Lori Eldredge,
Wesley United Methodist Church,
Concord, NH on March 25, 2007
John 12:1-8, John 13:3-17
