One Thing
Martha did the right thing,
she brought her stress to Jesus,
and told him about it,
she didn’t hide it away.
She didn’t pretend she was fine,
instead she knew Jesus could take it,
he would understand and help her.
‘Tell my sister to help me,’ she said.
‘I’ve got a lot to do.’
And Jesus did understand,
and he took notice and heard her.
But when he answered it was not the reply she expected.
‘You do have a lot to do,’ Jesus said,
‘but one thing is important,
and Mary has spotted that.’
We all have plenty to do,
but in the midst of life’s demands
one thing is important.
Help us to begin with that Lord.
Luke 10 v 38-42
