"‘Martha,
Martha,’ the Lord answered, ‘you are worried and upset about many things, but
only one thing is needed. Mary has chosen what is better, and it will not be taken away
from her.’"
When I read this passage, I see how my own actions sometimes mirror
those of Martha. The unimportant aspects of my life take on too much importance and I lose
sight of what is really a priority in my life, our Lord and Savior.
I think in this day and age we all get caught up in our busy schedules,
and we forget to thank God for all he has given us. I hope that today and everyday each of
us will remember all the Lord has given us, and thank him daily for these blessings.
Let’s follow Mary’s lead and keep the Lord first in our lives before everything
else.
