PrayerBits
A bite sized devotional program
produced by the West Side Presbyterian Church
Sunday: Luke 10:38-42 Mary and Martha
Time to Reflect: Well known and well understood story – we can be so busy serving Christ that we don't stop to listen to Christ.
Moving through the day: Build in a few short periods of time each day for prayer and meditation. As Luther is reported as having said “I've got so much work to do today, I'd better spend two hours in prayer instead of one."
Scripture:
At the Home of Martha and Mary
38As Jesus and his disciples were on their way, he came to a village where a woman named Martha opened her home to him. 39She had a sister called Mary, who sat at the Lord's feet listening to what he said. 40But 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!"
41"Martha, Martha," the Lord answered, "you are worried and upset about many things, 42but only one thing is needed.[a] Mary has chosen what is better, and it will not be taken away from her."
