Man, could I ever relate to that article! I'm the Martha in that story! I think women are "naturally" prone to make a fuss about preparations and want everything to be perfect. Is the meal and the appearance of our home a huge reflection on who we are as women . . . or do we create that idea ourselves and make much ado about nothing?

This is a lovely devotional. I especially like the personal anecdote and how you relate it to your life. It is true, we tend to focus on the 'doing' and not the 'being' and it can be hard to just sit and relax in God. Thanks for the reminder to be more like Mary every day! Well done.

Thanks so much on the feedback on this devotion. I really apreciate it.
What great advice! I really like the Martha and Mary. Because of health problems, my house is is a mess andI tend to isolate myself which leaves . me feeling lonely and sad. Great message, one I do need to hear.
