: AN ACT OF LOVE: The Anointing of Jesus by an Unnamed Woman By Reverend Danny McKay Synopsis Late one evening, God literally shook me awake and made me write the details of what would become the story of the unnamed woman who anointed Jesus' head with her fragrant alabaster oil and wiped his feet with her tears. If you study the Holy Bible, you may recall the prayer of Jabez (1 Chronicles 4:9-10), where he asked for God's favor over his life. My story focuses on the fact that, since Jabez's mother had great pain and sorrow when birthing him, I created imaginary triplet daughters using versions of Jabez's name. They were Jabeziah, Jabezeoh, and Jabezeah, but it was Jabeziah who had a calling to anoint Jesus Christ before he was crucified and ascended into Heaven. I bring the reader from the birth of the sisters to their childhood and adult interactions with Jesus Christ. At first, their relationship is that of playmates, but the triplets soon realize that Jesus is not an ordinary boy next door. He is actually the Messiah, the one true God. Tensions escalate between Jesus and the high-ranking Jews and Pharisees, because they are jealous of his teachings and his growing following. They decide to call him an enemy of the people and of God's laws, according to Moses. The political leaders -- Romans -- fear that the people who are mesmerized by Jesus will revolt against the government. All factions join forces to crucify Jesus Christ. The triplets have visions throughout their growing up. But before they can marry their chosen mates, they have the tedious, yet inspirational task of finding Jesus, getting close to him, and anointing him. When this happens, Jesus says that throughout history, when the story of his anointing is told, this woman, Jabeziah, will be remembered for all time. This is a story of faith and love, of courage and obedience to God. I, too, was obedient to God because, when he gave me the vision to write this story, I immediately obeyed and gave the characters real names and real-life situations that paralleled the life of Jesus Christ. It's a compelling read, full of twists and turns that come, even after Jesus is dead and buried. pastordannymckay@gmail.com www.theforgivenesschallenge.org dannymckayj@gmail.com Danny McKay, P. O.
