Jesus and his disciples were walking along a dusty road, they were tired and their feet hurt. As they entered a village, Jesus remembered he had just told the parable of the Good Samaritan. Jesus was teaching and an expert in the law stood up to test him. " Teacher" the expert asked Jesus "what must I do to inherit eternal life?". The expert said " love the lord your God with all your heart and soul and strength and mind and love your neighbor as yourself". Jesus replied " you have answered correctly, do this and you will live". The expert asked Jesus " and who is my neighbor". Jesus told the expert the parable of the Good Samaritan with the question at the end of who the neighbor was. The expert replied correctly the answer and Jesus told the expert to do likewise.
Martha was very tired as she hurried to get everything ready for her surprise guests. Mary had run in earlier to tell her guests were coming to spend the evening. As Martha was tiredly running around getting a meal and other things ready, Mary was sitting at the feet of the one they called Jesus and was listening to every word Jesus said. Martha in her tiredness had had enough, wiped her hands off and walked out to the others. Martha walked over to Jesus and in a loud voice said " Jesus, don't you care that my sister has left me with all this work, please tell her to help me". Jesus smiled at martha and said " Martha, you are worried about many things, Mary has chosen what is better and will not be taken from her".
