—Luke 10:38-42
by: Andrea Pozo.
In our yearning to be good servants of the Lord, sometimes we find ourselves filling our lives with activities. These activities may even be good ones and what we are doing may seem necessary and urgent—even more so when no one else seems to be volunteering to help! But obeying the Lord´s will implies doing exactly what He wants us to do exactly when He wants us to do it. In today´s passage, that meant sitting down and just listening to what He had to say. It was not that Martha was doing something bad; however, by being able to put her chores aside for a while, Mary had “chosen the good part” (v.42).
