    We can get so busy in DAILY MENIAL CHORES that we forget the beauty of an intimate relationship with God. Mary is found 3 times at Jesus' feet. At Jesus' feet is more than a position. Choose the good part.

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Feb 8, 2024
     | 1,056 views

    Some churches run so many activities that some servants are just worn out. We need more exits and “coming aside to rest” for contentment. Remember activities in the Lord’s name could be a barrier that stops us knowing Jesus better! We look at hope in Israel.

    Martha was working in the kitchen to earn Jesus’ approval, while Mary was sitting in the living room listening to Him teach. But Jesus had no problem with Mary. Why? Because our love of Him must come before our service.

Busyness . . . breeds distraction. - Joanna Weaver(1) One time a counterfeit bill made it into circulation and no one knew it was fake for quite some time.
