The Presence of Jesus...
* Jesus was in the house and nothing else mattered!
The Busyness of Martha...
The Busyness of Martha...

* Martha was 'distracted' with good intentions, not bad ones...

* Don't let your busyness define you!
The Attentiveness of Mary...

* As you long for post-Covid normalcy, try to keep your calendar less cluttered.

* Embrace spiritual disciplines as doorways to Jesus, not duties to be checked off.

“The spiritual disciplines are, at their most basic, means by which we pay attention.”

* As you long for post-Covid normalcy, try to keep your calendar less cluttered.

* Embrace spiritual disciplines as doorways to Jesus, not duties to be checked off.

* Remember that you become what you pay attention to.

“Our affection, and ultimately our devotion, is shaped by what we give our deepest attention to.”

“I failed to realize that pushing and shoving and doing all the ‘right things’ does not bring life to your soul -- ever.”

“If we are honest it is easier to work for God than it is to walk with God.”

W. E. Adams (C. S. Lewis’ spiritual advisor)
“…to walk with Jesus is to walk with a slow, unhurried pace. Hurry is the death of prayer and only impedes and soils our work. It never advances it.”
Luke 10:42b
Jesus: “...Mary has chosen what is better."
