Luke 10:38-42
Jesus entered a village
where a woman whose name was Martha welcomed him.
She had a sister named Mary
who sat beside the Lord at his feet listening to him speak.
Martha, burdened with much serving, came to him and said,
“Lord, do you not care
that my sister has left me by myself to do the serving?
Tell her to help me.”
The Lord said to her in reply,
“Martha, Martha, you are anxious and worried about many things.
There is need of only one thing.
Mary has chosen the better part
and it will not be taken from her.

When we want to serve God, we must serve Him fully. Forget about our worries, problems, concerns, deadlines, other priorities. Instead, drop all the other things were doing and concentrate fully to His instructions, commandments and messages.
Martha in the story is an example of a person who wishes to serve the master but she's so busy attending to other things, thus forgetting that the Lord is the most important of all.
Our goal should be to serve our God with all our heart, with all our mind and with all our strength.
God bless you all!
