Penitential Rite
It was a bitter, cold evening in northern Virginia many years ago. The old man's beard was glazed by winter's frost while he waited for a ride across the river. The wait seemed endless. His body became numb and stiff from the frigid north wind. He heard the faint, steady rhythm of approaching hooves galloping along the frozen path. Anxiously, he watched as several horsemen rounded the bend.

Leave Her Alone
The first thing that Wesley's painting offers is the absolute assertion that this is an intimate act. Unlike other paintings where the female figure may be slightly bowing toward Jesus or gesturing toward a box or bowl, in this painting Mary's left cheek is touching Jesus' left foot. She is prostrate, gently cradling Jesus' foot in two hands. She is not indicating that Jesus should wash the dust from his own feet. Rather she is showing what ministry may in fact look like.
