"Many Things And Me" Luke 10:38-42 "Now it happened as they went that He entered a certain village, and a certain woman named Martha welcomed Him into her house. And she had a sister called Mary, who also sat at Jesus' feet and heard His word. But Martha was distracted with much serving and she approached Him and said, 'Lord, do you not care that my sister has left me to serve alone? Therefore tell her to help me.' And Jesus answered and said to her, 'Martha, Martha, you are worried and troubled about many things. But one thing is needed, and Mary has chosen that good part, which will not be taken away from her." Oh my, need to hear this today. There is a time to serve and a time to be served. A time to just listen to His Word intently. A time not to complain. Not easy to order our priorities. Serving is sometimes a distraction from Him. Oh, l get it. I know there have been times when l was so distracted by "many things". Too many things. Oh Lord, help me with this. Help me not to miss the "good parts". Help me not to be a distraction from the "good parts" with my excessive serving. Help me serve you by not serving. Help me be more aware of what you are doing and not so aware of what I think I need to do. In His Service, Pastor Fred |
