Mow

Reading: Luke 10:38-42
NATS: But only one thing is needful: and Mary has chosen the best part will not be taken from him (Luke 10:42)

Mayor of a small town in Kentucky decided to stop cutting the grass in his yard in 2005. Then, he put up a board in his house that read: "There are things more important in life than tall grass."

The mayor said that he had some reason for not cutting the high grass. One is the death of his wife from cancer. That loss makes it reflect the priorities in life. Now he is happy to enjoy the relaxed atmosphere in the afternoon and watch the wildflowers, as well as the squirrels and the birds are now coming into her yard. A member of the city council said: "If he wants that, so be it. I even began to feel that he might be right. There are other things more important than mowing the lawn."

The mayor gave us an insight into the priorities. What we do with the time we have to show what we think is important in life. Bible Reading today tells how Martha attention taken up as "busy about much serving" (Luke 10:40). Instead, she took the time to "sit at Jesus' feet" and listened to his teaching (verse 39). Maybe Maria realized that he would not have much chance to learn from Jesus.

Sometimes the responsibilities like washing the dishes, mowing the lawn, or working overtime for a project should be postponed so that we can make time with God, family, or friends. These things can be much more important - AMC

HELP SOMEONE IN THE NAME OF JESUS
