Choosing the Better Part
Manage episode 434806070 series 2687152
Martha invites Jesus into her home along with her sister Mary. Jesus's interaction with them is a great source of insight for us. "The better part" that Mary has chosen, sitting at the feet of Jesus, tells us of the importance of prayer. Jesus's correction of Martha, however, also has to do with her inner attitude of distraction, worry, and resentment. In this sense, Martha can choose the better part, keep working, and maintain her peace and joy.
