I hope that you all had a wonderful Christmas with friends and family. I love spending time with my family.
As we move into the New Year, what are you thinking about? Are you worried about 2020? I was listening to a podcast today by Priscilla Shirer and she was talking about seasons in our life. We spend our life rushing around and preparing for what’s to come not stopping to enjoy the season that we are in right now. We continue to look for the next thing.
I love the story about Mary and Martha. “As Jesus and his disciples were on their way, he came to a village where a woman names Martha opened her home to him. She had a sister called Mary who say at the Lord’s feet listening to what he said. But Martha was distracted by all of the preparations that had to be made. She came to him and asked, “Lord, don’t you care that my sister has left me to do the work by myself? Tell her to help me!” “Marth, Marth,” the Lord answered, “you are worried and upset about many things, but few things are needed-or indeed only one. Mary has chosen what is better, and it will be taken away from her.” Luke 10: 38-42
I don’t know about you, but I want to be more like Mary in 2020. I don’t want to be distracted by the things in life.
I believe that God wants us to enjoy the moment. Choose to be content and look to Jesus!
