Jesus wants your attention, not your activity

Episode Summary

In the story of Mary and Martha from Luke 10, we see two different responses to Jesus. Martha is busy and overwhelmed while Mary is turning her attention towards Jesus and His teaching. You can live like Martha—be busy, distracted, doing lots of things that feel important. Or you can live like Mary—focused, present, sitting with Jesus. One leaves you feeling overwhelmed and “never enough.” While the other gives you something that Jesus says himself, “will not be taken away from you.”
