March 19th -- Luke 10 ONE THING IS NEEDFUL |
||||||||||||||
THOSE we deem most active were men of prayer, and those we associate with contemplation were men of action. Paul's supremely active service was preceded by three years in the desert at the feet of Jesus. John the beloved, a disciple almost mystical in his spiritual apprehension, was also a man of action.Many of us run energetically around, almost grimly determined to serve him, growing weary in our labour and perhaps a little angry with our brethren. Let us learn the lesson that Jesus taught Martha, that our service is not a self-inspired attempt to minister to him. It is for us to resort to him, allowing him to feed us, so that we can rise in quietness of spirit and deep humility of mind to minister to his needs. MELVA PURKIS, A Life of Jesus, page 263 |
