Having a Mary Heart in a Martha World

When 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!"
- Luke 10 : 38- 40 (NIV).
