Come to Christ as Mary Magdalene did!

(Jonathan Edwards, "Directions How to Conduct Yourself
 in Your Christian Course"--A Letter addressed to a young
 lady in the year 1741)

"There was a woman who was a notorious sinner in that city.
 When she learned that Jesus was eating at the Pharisee's
 home, she took an alabaster jar of perfume and knelt at His
 feet behind Him. She was crying and began to wash His feet
 with her tears and dry them with her hair. Then she kissed
 His feet over and over again, anointing them constantly
 with the perfume." (Luke 7:37-38)

When you engage in the duty of prayer, or come to the Lord's
supper, or attend any other duty of divine worship--come to
Christ as Mary Magdalene did! Come, and cast yourself at
His feet, and kiss them, and pour forth upon Him the sweet
perfumed ointment of divine love, out of a pure and broken
heart, as she poured the precious perfume out of her pure
broken alabaster jar!
