I tend to be a Martha – always scurrying around trying to create the atmosphere rather than sitting at my Lord’s feet listening as Mary did. I am concerned about many things. Is my home in order? Is the laundry done? Have I a teaching plan for Sunday? Did I finish my writing assignment? When will I find time to weed the backyard? On and on and on goes the list.
“Karen, Karen, you are worried and upset about many things, but only one thing is needed.”
When I take time to listen, I hear that Mary chose the better thing. In those quiet moments, I understand that yes, she surely did! And when I finally put aside all my plans, my worries, my never-ending to-do list – Jesus is there, waiting patiently for me to take my place at his feet. I let the list go. I drink in His presence and in the peace that settles over me, I am refreshed…rested.
Funny, when I stop my scurrying and rest awhile with my Jesus, somehow what is necessary gets done.
Greatings, Thank you! I would now go on this blog every day!
Have a nice day
