Tuesday within the 27th week year C. Luke 10:38-42
Are we like Martha, anxious with many things yet missing the most important one? Jesus, in this episode of his visitation of Mary and Martha, teaches us that, beyond doing all kinds of service for the Lord, it would even be better to be with him. Deepening our connection with God makes us more effective in our service of him. True discipleship, therefore, begins not in daily service but in daily communion with God. We must allow God's grace to overtake our actions. Let's examine our heart this week and see how often we become "Martha" so preoccupied by business even in our ministry. Our Communion with Christ, through daily mass, daily prayers, adoration, and meditation, are the source of our strength for God's service.
Jesus, I trust in you
