On the day of Holy Wednesday, one of the last events before the saving sufferings for humanity of the Son of God is remembered. In her sincere repentance, a sinner managed to enter the house where Christ was staying and, wishing to testify to her reverence, poured myrrh on the Savior's head. It was very expensive, so some were indignant at her: "Why is this waste?", "the myrrh could have been sold and the money distributed to the poor." And Jesus answered them: "You always have the poor with you, but you do not always have me," "she did a good deed for me and anointed my body for burial."
This woman realized her mistakes, shed tears of repentance and wiped the feet of the Savior with her hair. With this diligence, she set an example of humility and sincere repentance for all who want to follow Christ.
