Reflection of the week

Posted Jul 20, 2016 in Faith

I confess that there is something of Martha within me. Sometimes I make the mistake of thinking that being busy is a virtue, and I worry about the outcome. 

I stand corrected, along with the words of Jesus to Martha: “there is need of only one thing. Mary has chosen the better part” (Luke 10:38-42).

Lord, teach me the value of listening to your direction before I act. Show me the “better part” and how to find the right balance between service and stillness. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
