Right now I'm studying Greek to take my first test. And listening to lectures. And reading...and reading some more.Plus I'm preparing a sermon for two services on Sunday.
And, I'm meeting my mentor tomorrow out of town.
Not to mention that my youngest kids were home today because of parent/teacher conferences.
Groceries need bought. Bills need paid.
Blogs need written.
Momma needs sleep.
We all recognize idleness as a danger, but we should also recognize that busyness can also be dangerous.
As Jesus and his disciples were on their way, he came to a village where a woman named Martha opened her home to him. She had a sister called Mary, who sat at the Lord’s feet listening to what he said. 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!”
“Martha, Martha,” the Lord answered, “you are worried and upset about many things, but few things are needed—or indeed only one. Mary has chosen what is better, and it will not be taken away from her.” --Luke 10:38-42
Take time to sit at Jesus' feet every single day. (Note to self: Even if that means getting up earlier.)
