Hunger For God (Part 1)
In a world consumed by busyness and distractions, it's easy to overlook the value of spending time with Jesus. Just like Martha in the biblical story, we often find ourselves caught up in the demands of life, missing out on the best part. But there's a lesson to be learned from Mary, who recognized the power that comes from sitting at Jesus' feet and feasting on His words.
One particular visit by Jesus to Mary and Martha's house is recorded in Luke 10. While Martha busied herself with preparations, Mary chose to prioritize her time with Jesus. Despite Martha's frustration, Mary understood the importance of her spiritual health and the power that came from being in the presence of the Lord.
We all have our "Martha moments" when we get caught up in work and responsibilities, neglecting our relationship with Jesus. We can become dried up like a once-flowing creek bed, longing for the days when we were full of life. But the truth is, power and satisfaction come from spending time with Jesus, not from our own human efforts.
While hard work is valuable, we shouldn't neglect the precious moments spent with Jesus. Being in the midst of life's challenges doesn't mean we put our lives on hold. Instead, we can lean into this season, growing closer to God and allowing His living water to flow through us, refreshing and restoring not only ourselves but those around us. So, let us prioritize the best part, spending time with Jesus, and experiencing the power and satisfaction that come from knowing Him deeply.
