Busyness

Psalm 31
Revelation 9:13-21
Luke 10: 38-42


Luke 10: 38-42

Following on from yesterday Martha was not still and patient in her service. She was banging down those pots and pans on the stove top and the dishes were fairly flying onto the talbe. Chop chop chopping the of the herbs, she nearly caught her fingers with the parsley. She was focusing on what she was doing and on what she wanted done yet Jesus was with her in the house. Yes she wanted to put on a spread fit for a king but he wanted her to concentrate on him rather than providing for him. Anxious thoughts fill up the space where he could be.
