Each day I pray for an ear that will hear above all the noise clearly His voice. For while sometimes it's best to be serving with zest, sometimes it's better to sit for a breather and wait in his presence and enjoy this true essence of sitting and being before going and doing. So while sometimes I'll Martha I know that I'd rather spend time being Mary, in less of a hurry, for there at his feet I'll be more complete and hear his clear voice above all the noise.

Martha-ing and Mary-ing
Each day I pray for an ear that will hear above all the noise clearly His voice. For while sometimes it's best to be serving with zest, sometimes it's better to sit for a breather and wait in his presence and enjoy this true essence of sitting and being before going and doing. So while sometimes I'll Martha I know that I'd rather spend time being Mary, in less of a hurry, for there at his feet I'll be more complete and hear his clear voice above all the noise.
Serving at New Day 2019. #newdaygeneration . Luke 10. 41 & 42 41 “Martha, Martha,” the Lord answered, “you are worried and upset about many things, 42 but few things are needed—or indeed only one. Mary has chosen what is better, and it will not be taken away from her.”
