THOUGHT FOR THE DAY:

MAKE TIME FOR JESUS IN YOUR LIFE, TODAY…..

We can glean MUCH from the account of Jesus’ visit to Martha and Mary’s home. Martha was preoccupied with meal preparation, while Mary chose to sit and listen to Jesus’ TEACHINGS. Martha’s frustration led her to INTERRUPT Jesus, COMPLAINING about the UNFAIRNESS of her situation. Jesus’ response was ENLIGHTENING: “Martha, you are worried about many THINGS, but only ONE thing is NECESSARY, and Mary has CHOSEN it.” Essentially, Jesus advised Martha to PAUSE and cherish the time with HIM, a message that resonates with us even now.

The pandemic served as a global “time-out,” prompting reflection on what truly matters in life. It revealed that money is merely PAPER, rights are granted by OTHERS, and ultimately, JESUS is the custodian of LIFE, LIBERTY, and JOY. Above ALL, He is the gatekeeper to eternal LIFE. Don’t wait for another pandemic, make space for Jesus in YOUR life, TODAY!

Today’s Scripture:

“There is really only one thing worth being concerned about. Mary has discovered it—and I won’t take it away from her!”

Luke 10:42, TLB
