Women’s Night of Worship SAVE THE DATE - WOMEN’S RETREAT What Have You Chosen?
Luke 10:38–42 38 As Jesus and his disciples were on their way, he came to a village where a woman named Martha opened her home to him. 39 She had a sister called Mary, who sat at the Lord’s feetlistening to what he said. 40 But Martha was distracted by all the preparations that had to be made. She came to him and asked, “Lord, don’t you care that my sister has left me to do the work by myself? Tell her to help me!” 41 “Martha, Martha,” the Lord answered, “you are worried and upset about many things, 42 but few things are needed—or indeed only one. Mary has chosen what is better, and it will not be taken away from her.” As I read this passage this morning, two words caught my attention: distracted and chosen. Lately I have found myself distracted by everyday things: my cell phone, daily chores, and responsibilities outside my control. These distractions aren't just keeping me busy. They are leaving me frustrated and exhausted. If I'm honest, they are keeping me from making Jesus my number one priority. Martha wasn't doing anything wrong. She was serving Jesus in her own home. But even good things can pull us away from the best thing. Then there is the other word, just a few verses later: chosen. "Mary has chosen what is better." I think about all the times I pick up my Bible to read, and a few minutes later I'm scrolling on my phone or taking care of something around the house. Mary made a choice to sit still, focus her attention, and not let the distractions pull her away. So often my distractions are a choice I have allowed myself to make, one that keeps me from the "only one" thing that is needed: time with my Heavenly Father. What have you chosen today?
