2 | how were the sisters | Luke 10:42 | prayon | 72088 | ||
Greetings, Mary and Martha were different in that Marh was impassioned and imaginative while Martha was practical and unemotional. Martha was probably the older one and the home maker. In this passage Martha became upset that Mary sat at the Lord's feet listening to His teaching while she was doing all the work. Martha complained to Jesus about this. Jesus told her that Mary was doing the better thing because she was concentrating on that thing which could not be taken away from her. Jesus was more interested in food for the soul rather than food for the body. What Martha was concentrating on was something that could be done anytime. prayon |

The two sisters are different in their way of acknowledging God. Jesus said Mary did better because of the first commandment, "Love God above all". In rev 2:4 says :" Yet I hold this against you: You have forsaken your first love". The first love is Love of God. Not few of God's servants these days fall into this trap. They become too busy doing good things. Too occupied in working for the kingdom of God. Concentrating too much of their time in helping God do His job that they fall in love with the work itself thereby forgetting the first true love which is Love of God. |
