One Thing

I hope you are taking the B90X challenge. Yesterday, I read this classic passage of Scripture:

"As Jesus and his disciples were on their way, he came to a village where a woman named Martha opened her home to him. She had a sister called Mary, who sat at the Lord's feet listening to what he said. But Martha was distracted by all the preparations that had to be made. She came to him and asked, "Lord, don't you care that my sister has left me to do the work by myself? Tell her to help me!"

"Martha, Martha," the Lord answered, "you are worried and upset about many things, but only one thing is needed. Mary has chosen what is better, and it will not be taken away from her." Luke 10:38-42

Two questions for application:

1. What are the "many things" that you are worried and upset about? Write them down and turn then over to the Lord.

2. What is the one thing that you need to focus on today?
