Sunday's sermon was on Mary and Martha. You can check them out in Luke 10:38-42. I have always known that I was a Martha, so I have had a hard time with knowing why people had a problem with her. It hit me that Martha forgot Him and just remembered the service. That's so me. My problem with work last year was the Bitter Bettyness of, "Does anyone see all that I am doing? Can you see where I have been and what I have done?" The pastor hit the nail in the head when he said that Martha became BOTHERED, DISTRACTED, and ANXIOUS with her to do list.
My friend sent me in the mail a wonderful gift. It's a journal that helps with making and keeping up with to do lists. Could that have been any more perfect of a gift for me?
I am so busy making lists and thinking about how I am going to fix my debt or making lists in my mind of how I am a good person even with this debt.
After the prayer/Benediction, a friend prayed that God would make it known to us if we need to go into a closet and sit at His feet. I so felt that need with the upcoming school year and me being a Martha and wanting to do everything and me not wanting to pay bills b/c I want to throw up thinking about how much money I really do have in the bank, I want to run/flee and not sit at the feet of Jesus. B.c I think that I can control the outcomes and I........
Lord,
I lift up my trying to be You. If I give up control than what is there for me to do? How am I to be/act? I want to what's right and I don't even know what that is. Please help me Lord.
Amen.
