How awesome would it be to hear our Lord say about us, "but one thing is necessary, (your name) has chosen the good portion, which will not be taken away from you"
Aww, to choose the good portion, which is sitting at the feet of Jesus. What an amazing invitation we have been given. Each one of us. Martha is not a bad person, in fact, stuff has to get done. We can't sit around all day, but when it comes down to it...sitting at Jesus' feet is the good portion. Even if Martha would have just paused and sat at the feet of Jesus for even 7 minutes, I think her heart would have been touched and her attitude would have be amazing as she served Jesus and the guest. It is critical for us all to just sit at the feet of Jesus which is where the good portion is. Do you want the good portion? I know I do! It's at His feet! Bow down before Him tonight and listen...whisper His name...Call out to Him...Honor Him...just spend time with Him.
The expert of the law asks, and who is my neighbor? And the answer isn't a person, it's an action. The answer is go and have mercy on the world. - Blaine
