RE: Martha

in Ladies of Hive โ€ข 2 months ago

Lmao. It is such a coincidence that we meet here ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚. Plus, I sincerely love your community. Hence, I tag your community. The ladies of hive and your community are kind of the same but have differences.

Actually, this is my first time posting in this community, so I just wanted it to give it a try.

Moving on~

I agreed that it is quite revelant in our Christian lives, and we live in a double standard lifestyle, but we cannot hide from Him for what we truly are. He knows if we were sincere in serving Him or not.

The story of Martha and Mary is about how to serve God.

With Martha and Mary, both of them truly loved God. Mary focused on God 100%, while Martha served Jesus 50%. I think that Martha wanted Jesus to praise her for her work or service, but her preparation occupied her.

When she complained to Him that she did all the work and Mary didn't lift a finger, Jesus gently disciplined Martha about her priorities, and He wants Martha to adapt Mary's attitude about how she should serve Him.

What God wants for us is to serve Him wholeheartedly like Mary did, and what He didn't look after is us serving two masters (Matthew 6:24) like Martha did.

That's why I love the chapter of John 15:5 as a reminder of serving Him.
