    Sometimes we get so busy for the Lord that we lose what is most important: that quiet time before the Lord. Mary and Martha show us a contrast in devotion and distraction, and challenge us to keep Christ first.

    Luke 10:38-42 Devoted or Distracted? My internet went out Friday, so I went through all the troubleshooting. And then it asked me, “Do you want me to reboot the router?” And I hit the “yes” button. By all means, reboot the router, if that will reconnect me with the ...read more
