Luke 10:41-42 "But the Lord answered and said to her, "Martha, Martha, you are worried and bothered about so many things; but only a few things are necessary, really only one, for Mary has chosen the good part, which shall not be taken away from her." (NASB) To keep this short, I only quoted Jesus' point, to read the entire passage, click on this Luke 10:38-42.
The good part which Jesus is referring to here is devotion to Jesus and His teaching.
How often in life do we let our worries in life distract us from Christ?
How often in life do we let our concerns in life distract us from Christ?
How often do we get caught up in preparations, but never actually get to the doing of the thing we're preparing for?
What are we doing that is keeping us fron the good part?
What are we worrying about that is stealing our devotion to Christ?
What is it in your life that is choking out your devotion to Christ?
What little thing can you surrender to God today that will release some of the worries and concern and help you get the good part?
May you have a blessed day!

This blog is designed to provoke thought about the simple things of being a Christian. Most of the posts will be short and to the point. I like to ask a lot of questions. (my background is in teaching and questioning is part of my style.) I enjoy discussions about my posts, so feel free to post your thoughts and questions if you like.
