Scriptural Focus: Luke 10:38-42 Mary & Martha: The Tale of Two . “Martha was distracted by all the preparations that had to be made.” Luke 10:40 “She had a sister called Mary, who sat at the Lord’s feet listening to what he said.” Luke 10:39 **Jesus invites us to (know) Him, not just serve him: (John 6:35) (John 1:39) (John 10:27) (Mark 1:41) (John 12:3) (John 4:14) **The Ministry of “Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, the new creation has come: The old has gone, the new is here! All this is from God, who reconciled us to himself through Christ and gave us the ministry of reconciliation” 2 Corinthians 5:17-18 How will I create space and time in my life to sit at the feet of Jesus? When was the last time I simply sat in the presence of Jesus without an agenda, distraction, or to-do list? What helps me slow down and listen to His voice like Mary did? What keeps pulling me away like Martha? How have I personally experienced Jesus and which sense best describes it (seeing His light, hearing His voice, tasting His goodness, etc.)? What invitation from Jesus (taste, see, smell, hear, touch, drink) speaks to me most right now? Where might Jesus be calling me to carry His presence into someone else's life this week?
