And I am sure that Jesus wants each of these from you in their own time. That needs to come first, before all these other things. That is where peace is found. That is the only place of spiritual rest. Martha, why don't you take off your apron and sit down for a few minutes.
Dinner can wait.
Prayer Father, when I look at my own life, I'm often too busy to just listen to you. I'm an activist. I'm always wanting to be doing something. I have trouble sitting still before you. Please forgive me for my restlessness.
