What Matters Most?
Now as they went on their
way, he entered a certain village, where a woman named Martha welcomed him into
her home. She had a sister named Mary, who sat at the Lord's feet and listened
to what he was saying. But Martha was distracted by her many tasks; so she came
to him and asked, "Lord, do you not care that my sister has left me to do
all the work by myself? Tell her then to help me." But the Lord answered
her, "Martha, Martha, you are worried and distracted by many things; there
is need of only one thing. Mary has chosen the better part, which will not be
taken away from her."
