Buy the truth, and sell it not; also wisdom, and instruction, and understanding. (Proverbs 23)

Mary and Martha

Do you see how Luke places the story of Mary and Martha after all this activity? This episode isn’t here by accident. I believe God wants us to see that if we heal the sick and cast out demons and preach the gospel and show mercy and do justice and don’t sit at the feet of Jesus, we’ve missed the one thing we truly need.
