On a daily basis we live busy with our thoughts and ideas in which we deal or believe that we deal with the things of the Lord when in reality we live busy with our own ideas.
It happened that on his way, he entered a village; and a woman named Marta received him in her house. She 39 she This she had a sister named Mary, who, sitting at the feet of Jesus, heard her word. 40 But Marta was preoccupied with many chores, and approaching, she said: Sir, don't you care that my sister lets me serve alone? So tell her to help me. 41 Answering Jesus, she said to him: Martha, Martha, you are anxious and troubled with many things. 42 But only one thing is necessary; and Mary has chosen the good part of her, which she will not take from her.
Luke 10.38-42
For you, which of the two sisters do you identify with? Are we worried about everything that may happen before the Lord or do we simply sit down to contemplate him? In the picture seen in the previous text, Marta stopped listening to him and was more concerned with serving the Lord since for her this was the most important thing. Although both sisters expressed their love for Jesus and Mary has chosen the best way.
Throughout our lives with everything we do, we lose sight of the importance of listening to the Lord, of just seeking his presence. God does NOT want us to neglect our activities, our work, family, etc. It is very important that we dedicate the necessary time to God, that we pray and read the word of God, that we meditate.
On many occasions we are taught to put the Lord first, but even more so, that the Lord be a pillar in our lives, that he be the foundation of our family, work, partner, etc. Our thoughts are renewed daily through the word of God, that our actions are the result of our spiritual growth
Our nature is selfish and does not desire the things of God, but our new man seeks and cries out for God, the world encourages us to seek only to satisfy our desires to please ourselves, while in a relationship healthy with God can be much better when we take the attitude that Mary had, of being attentive to God.

A diario vivimos ocupados en nuestros pensamientos e ideas en que nos ocupamos o creemos que nos ocupamos de las cosas del Señor cuando en realidad vivimos afanados par solo ideas nuestras.
Aconteció que yendo de camino, entró en una aldea; y una mujer llamada Marta le recibió en su casa. 39 Esta tenía una hermana que se llamaba María, la cual, sentándose a los pies de Jesús, oía su palabra. 40 Pero Marta se preocupaba con muchos quehaceres, y acercándose, dijo: Señor, ¿no te da cuidado que mi hermana me deje servir sola? Dile, pues, que me ayude. 41 Respondiendo Jesús, le dijo: Marta, Marta, afanada y turbada estás con muchas cosas. 42 Pero solo una cosa es necesaria; y María ha escogido la buena parte, la cual no le será quitada.
Lucas 10.38-42
Para usted, ¿Cual de las dos hermanas usted se identifica? ¿Estamos preocupados de todo lo que puede acontecer ante el Señor o simplemente nos sentamos a contemplarle?. En el cuadro visto en el texto anterior, Marta dejo de escucharle y se preocupaba mas en servirle al Señor ya que para ella era esto lo mas importante. Aunque ambas hermanas expresaban su amor por Jesus y María ha elegido la mejor forma.
A lo largo de nuestra vida con todo lo que hacemos, perdemos de vista la importancia de escuchar al Señor, de solamente buscar su presencia. Dios NO quiere que le descuidemos nuestras actividades, nuestro trabajo, familia, etc. Es muy importante que dediquemos el tiempo necesario a Dios, que oremos y leamos la palabra de Dios, que meditemos.
En muchas oportunidades nos enseñan a poner al Señor en primer lugar, pero mas aún, que el Señor sea un pilar en nuestras vidas, que sea la base de nuestra familia, trabajo, pareja, etc. Nuestros pensamientos sean renovados a diario mediante la palabra de Dios, que nuestras acciones sean el resultado de nuestro crecimiento espiritual
Nuestra naturaleza es egoísta y no desea de las cosas de Dios, pero nuestro nuevo hombre busca y clama por Dios, el mundo nos incita a que busquemos satisfacer solamente nuestros deseos para complacernos a nosotros mismos, mientras que con una relación sana con Dios puede ser mucho mejor cuando tomamos la actitud que tuvo maría, de estar atentos a Dios.
Muchas Gracias por compartir esta lectura, deseo que el Espíritu Santo de Dios traiga revelación de su palabra a nuestras vidas.
Just last night I was scrambling all over Google searching “words of Jesus .pdf,” for some reason I just had a deep yearning to skip directly to his words only, I’m still desperate to just read all of them. So seeing this post this morning was special for me, and the content itself was also very relevant to me. ❤️🙏
@deflatedscotsman I feel very moved to read these words, this is the desire of my heart, that the word of God spread and be glorified filling the lives of people and giving hope. God keep blessing you!
