As Jesus and the disciples continued on their way to Jerusalem, they came to a certain village where a woman named Martha welcomed them into her home. Her sister, Mary, sat at the Lord's feet. But Martha was distracted by the big dinner she was preparing. She came to Jesus and said, "Lord, doesn't it seem unfair to you that my sister just sits here while I do all the work? Tell her to come and help me. But the Lord said to her, "My dear Martha, you are worried and upset over all these details! There is only one thing worth being concerned about. Mary has discovered it, and it will not be taken away from her." Luke 10:38-42 NLT
Have you ever been described as easily distracted, easily worried and easily upset? Well, God’s grace in Jesus Christ can change all of that. Grace will let you discover a love that expresses itself in delighting in the Lord, it is known as worship. Worship is that one thing that is needed to be discovered for a good and healthy attitude. Worship lives in praise, thanksgiving and joy, it therefore finds itself giving glory to God in whatever it does. Work can be accomplished in the attitude of Worship! Without grace we experience the emotions of stress in all its forms. You are worried and upset over all these details! Worshiping the Lord puts all the details of life in proper perspective. Today let his grace live through you and let it be expressed through your attitudes, thoughts and your actions. In a life of grace there is no grouchiness or stress. Here you will experience his joy in all the minutiae of your life and again that is called grace. Enjoy! |
