Thank you for this @iansimkins - I can easily fall into the “Martha” persona instead of sitting at Jesus’s feet like Mary. I’m a doer. I’m known as someone who gets things done - and, this is one of the gifts God has given me. I just have to be careful not to take it too far.
My primary purpose, and yours too, is to be and do what God created me to be and do. First thing, He created us to bear His image and love to everyone we come into contact with - whether it’s passively by our demeanor and attitude, or actively with our purposeful words and actions. ”So we have been sent to speak for Christ. It is as if God is calling to you through us. We speak for Christ when we beg you to be at peace with God.“ 2 Corinthians 5:20
