It's All About Worship
Preparing dinner for The Lord and his party, Martha complained that her sister Mary left the kitchen to sit at the feet of Jesus and worship. Martha was too busy.
Luke 10:41,42 And Jesus answered and said unto her, Martha, Martha, thou art careful and troubled about many things: But one thing is needful: and Mary hath chosen that good part which shall not be taken away from her.
Unless we meet with Christ personally and privately each day, we will soon be like Martha: busy but not blessed.
Before we can represent Christ in ministry, we must spend time with Him and learn from Him. We must "take time to be holy". The most important part of the Christian life is the part that only God sees.
How is your devotional life? Are you reading God's Word and praying each day?
We are ambassadors, neighbors, and worshipers, these three: and the greatest of these is worshipers.
