Day 114 - April 24, 2013

Today was our last Wednesday Morning Bible Study for the season. We studied this book, "Having a Mary Heart in a Martha World". I have thoroughly enjoyed this study and how much it has 'forced' me to take a look at my life and relationship with God. I love how we are learning together as a group of women. 


From the back of the book...

"The life of a woman today isn’t really all that different from that of Mary and Martha in the New Testament. Like Mary, you long to sit at the Lord’s feet…but the daily demands of a busy world just won’t leave you alone. Like Martha, you love Jesus and really want to serve him… yet you struggle with weariness, resentment, and feelings of inadequacy.

Then comes Jesus, right into the midst of your busy life to extend the same invitation he issued long ago to the two sisters of Bethany. Tenderly, he invites you to choose "the better part"- a joyful life of intimacy with him that flows naturally into loving service.
