This Morning...

We will take a look at Christ’s relationship with two very different sisters, Mary and Martha. One values service and doing while the other seems more content to just be with people. One seems more concerned with fairness and justice while the other is quicker to surrender herself. Yet Jesus loved them both. Many scholars believe that he was very close to the two sisters and their brother Lazarus, that he visited there often and found, so to speak, a second home there. Some have suggested that that is why he raised Lazarus from the dead but I think that is why he allowed Lazarus to die. Though it did not change the sister’s personalities it did change them from the inside out which is the one hallmark of all real relationships with Jesus.
