Jesus was eating in Bethany at the home of Simon, who once had leprosy, when a woman came in with a very expensive bottle of sweet-smelling perfume. After breaking it open, she poured the perfume on Jesus' head. This made some of the guests angry, and they complained, “Why such a waste? We could have sold this perfume for more than 300 silver coins and given the money to the poor!” So they started saying cruel things to the woman. But Jesus said: Leave her alone! Why are you bothering her? She has done a beautiful thing for me.

No one enjoys the pain of brokenness. But God doesn't break us to cause undue pain. He breaks us because he loves us. He breaks us to bless us. God chips away at anything in our lives that prevents us from finding our true purpose and love for him. If you are going through a season of brokenness, know that God is working things together for your good.
