Good Morning!! For the most part, we move about in a spiritual sleep. Sure we've been reading the Bible and praying,...but it's become merely routine. Rarely do we feel any excitement, or eagerness for building a closer relationship with God. Our work, family, and hobbies take all our attention. That is until God allows something to happen that revives us.
"Martha, Martha, you are worried and distracted by many things; there is need of only one thing. Mary has chosen the better part, which will not be taken away from her."—Luke 10:41-42 (NRSV)
Like Martha, we are so busy, to the point, that we miss the point. Mary took the time to speak, and listen to Jesus. She sat at Jesus' feet,...even though there was work to do. Mary chosen the better part,...as should we all.
Having an intimate relationship with God, is more precious than anything.
Dear God, thank You for Your kindness, Your mercy,...and for caring for us, still loving us, and seeking us out,...even when we've allowed our focus to stray from You. In Jesus name, Amen.
"Make prayer your first response,...rather than a last resort."
