Life is More Than Fair
Manage episode 392560968 series 2929394
We don't know what is good. Circumstances judged on an emotional level will throw us off track. Trust God the Father to know the circumstance we need to become a mature child of God. There is striving, endurance and overcoming to secure a relationship with God. We are admonished to "grow-up in Christ" by becoming a servant. "Know ye what I have done to you?" Jesus asked the disciples. He washed their feet. He served. He humbled himself. He led.
We minister to the LORD in physical ways, picking up garbage, cleaning, feeding the hungry; "Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye have done it unto one of the least of these my brethren, ye have done it unto me."
Present your body as a living sacrifice; holy and acceptable to the Lord.
John 4:23
“But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth: for the Father seeketh such to worship him.”

59: Jesus In The Home Of Mary And Martha
Luke 10:38-42
Jesus In The Home Of Mary And Martha
When he came to the village of Bethany, Jesus rested in the house of a woman named Martha. Martha had a sister, Mary, who sat at the feet of Jesus and listened to his words.
Martha, who was very busy taking care of the house and serving, went to Jesus and said:
“Lord, dost thou not care that my sister hath left me to serve alone? Bid her therefore that she help me.”
Jesus answered Martha, saying:
“Martha, Martha, thou art careful and troubled about many things. But one thing is needful; and Mary hath chosen that good part, which shall not be taken away from her.”
