A Message of Inspiration From the Author of Living Loved, November 17, 2024

Hey Friends!!!   Question:  What are you concerned with? 

Read with me!

“As Jesus and the disciples continued on their way to Jerusalem, they came to a certain village where a woman named Martha welcomed him into her home. Her sister, Mary, sat at the Lord’s feet, listening to what he taught. But Martha was distracted by the big dinner she was preparing. She came to Jesus and said, “Lord, doesn’t it seem unfair to you that my sister just sits here while I do all the work? Tell her to come and help me.” But the Lord said to her, “My dear Martha, you are worried and upset over all these details! There is only one thing worth being concerned about. Mary has discovered it, and it will not be taken away from her.””
Luke 10:38-42

We can all get so busy and concerned with all kinds of things. Ministry being one of them. Martha wasn’t necessarily wrong for wanting to prepare a meal for The Lord but she was missing out on the one thing worth being concerned about and that was sitting at the feet of Jesus. Most things we get so busy with are not necessarily wrong in themselves but if it is taking precedence over spending time with the Father then it has taken His place in our hearts!  We are loved by a Mighty God who wants our relationship more than He wants our service!  Service will naturally flow through a heart in deep relationship with the Lord!  Oh friends, seek that relationship first and let His love and His mercies flow through you!!  Choose the better thing, the thing worth being concerned with!  You are so loved by an amazing God who died to save you!!  Have a blessed day friends and remember to take some time to be a Mary and not always a Martha!  Live loved!!
