And Jesus answered and said to her, "Martha, Martha, you are worried and troubled about many things.
But ONE thing is needed, and Mary has chosen that good part, which will not be taken away from her."
Luke 10:41-42
"The service attendance is so low for the past few months or perhaps, years; more members please!!!"
"My cell group members didn't keen on attending cell group at all..."
"The musical instrument doesn't sound nice today, I can't concentrate worshiping God.."
"The temperature in church is too cold, let me adjust it..."
"I don't have time for quiet moment with God, I need to minister to people each night, they need me.."
Luke 10:39-40
...Mary, who also sat at Jesus' feet and heard His word.
But Martha was distracted with much serving, and she approached Him and said,
"Lord, do You not care that my sister has left me to serve alone?
Therefore tell her to help me."
Jesus' response was...
And Jesus answered and said to her, "Martha, Martha, you are worried and troubled about many things.
But ONE thing is needed, and Mary has chosen that good part, which will not be taken away from her."
Luke 10:41-42
Yes, only One thing is needed, that is a humble and pure heart for God.
An undivided heart for Him is what He desires from us.
Not the excessive serving, serving do not equal to our love for God.
Unknowingly, we might be...
Serving for the sake of serving;
Singing without worshiping Him;
Playing musical instrument without Him being the Audience;
Enjoy leading people for our own kingdom instead of His kingdom;
Loving the church as an organisation without loving Him.
Remember, one One thing is needed,
let's sit by His feet each day and listen what He actually wants.
Just fix our eyes on Him,
and everything else will take its place.
only One thing is needed... = )
