The good part


Luke 10:41-42 KJV
And Jesus answered and said unto her, Martha, Martha, thou art careful and troubled about many things:
But one thing is needful: and Mary hath chosen that good part, which shall not be taken away from her.

One thing is needful.

We get so caught up in our busy-ness; even about the things of the Lord.
· So caught up in our ministries
· So caught up in our doing
· So caught up in our responsibilities
· So caught up in our friends family and other people
That we often excuse ourselves from not doing the one thing that is needful; to to sit at Jesus' feet and hear His Word.


I sometimes think that someone has to be cumbered about with serving so others can sit at the feet of Jesus. That might just be human logic. Maybe we have become Martha’s without knowing it. Maybe we have elevated the service of the Lord to such a height that fewer than should get to sit at His feet and hear His word.


That is the good part.
