"Mary sat at Jesus' feet listening to what he taught. But Martha was worrying over the big dinner she was preparing..." Luke 10:38
While Martha was stressing over all the details of the dinner and being upset that Mary wasn't helping, Mary was sitting at the feet of Jesus, listening to him. What Martha was doing was good, but Mary had found what was truly most important.
We could all learn something from Mary in this story. Instead of stressing and worrying so much about every little thing in our lives as we so often do, sometimes we need to STOP and just sit at the feet of Jesus.
Sometimes we just need to hit the pause button on life. We need to take a break from the "busyness" of our lives to listen to his voice, to hear what he is teaching us, to worship at his feet, and to just BE in his presence.
If you find yourself constantly worrying and stressing about things, come to Jesus. Sit at his feet. Listen to his voice. Spend time in the presence of your Savior. In His presence, there is peace, joy, and rest.
Be a worshipper, not a worrier!
