Mary Magdalene
John 20:17
Jesus said, Go instead to my brothers and tell them, 'I am returning to my Father and your Father, to my God and your God.''
The Lord Jesus Christ introduced Mary Magdalene to His father and God. She represents a pardoned sinner, a woman and a church. What attracted this grace was her genuine love for Christ. She sacrificed her time and effort for Christ to the extent of looking for Christ at the graveyard. Hers was a burning passion for things of the Spirit, hence could not hold her tears. When a church begins to scramble for spiritual items, Jesus will appear with a warehouse of them. When servants of God offer their hearts and minds to Jesus Christ, He will grant access to his Father and God. Mary did.
Mary became a strong conduit of the good news gospel. She defied the odds, refused the narrative that women were not to be entrusted with matters of leadership. She became an agent of change. Remember Mary was an investor in Jesus' ministry . This Kingdom investment mentality attracted huge grace---access to God the father. There is no amount of return on investment greater than Jesus' invitation and introduction to God Almighty. Unozodei? Hallelujah
