In the Bible, the story of Mary Magdalene begins with a gift. Jesus gave her freedom, releasing her from nighmarish bondage . In those days, demon influence was prevalent, and those wicked spirits attacked many people. even entering into some and taking control of them. We do not know what effect the demons had on poor Mary Magdalen; we know only that she had been possessed by seven of those vicious, perverted bullies. And thanks to Jesus Chris, they were all evicted! - LUKE 8:2.
Free at last, and relieved beyond measure, Maru had a whole new life before her. How could she show her gratitude? She became a loyal follower of Jesus. She also responded to a need that she saw. Jesus and his apostles needed food, clothing, and a place to sleep at night. They were not men of wealth, and they were doing no secular work at the time. In order to focus on preaching and teachign, they needed material support.
