Scripture: Luke 10:38-42
Title: The One Thing
Meditation:
“The “one thing” that Martha needed was a calm, devotional spirit, a deeper anxiety for knowledge concerning the future, immortal life, and the graces necessary for spiritual advancement. She needed less anxiety for the things which pass away, and more for those things which endure forever. Jesus would teach His children to seize every opportunity of gaining that knowledge which will make them wise unto salvation. The cause of Christ needs careful, energetic workers. There is a wide field for the Marthas, with their zeal in active religious work. But let them first sit with Mary at the feet of Jesus… Let diligence, promptness, and energy be sanctified by the grace of Christ; then the life will be an unconquerable power for good." The Desire of Ages, p. 525
