Moments and Musings
Ah, Martha. You're one of us, you know? When we slow down long enough to look, we catch our reflection in your spotless mirror. We see ourselves, then quickly rush on, our to-do lists calling.
We stand, our hand reaching for the potholder, glancing over our shoulders at Mary, straining to hear a word of encouragement or praise, and, like you, we're conflicted.

I've felt this connection to the Bethany sisters for many years. I've dreamed of a devotional book based on meditations inspired by their lives and others in the pages of our Bible.
I long to invite other Marthas to join me for deeper study and conversation around His Word, but my Martha spirit churns and threatens to strangle my dream.
So, sisters, would you be interested in sharing some M-and-M's ......Moments and Musings for our Martha/Mary hearts? If so, chime in and feel free to share the invitation with other kindred spirits.

So I now want to become your Mary. One of the many many Mary's that you have loved.
But for now I am a combination of the two. I know you will never let go of me and I will never let go of you. So I battle on. I thank you for this new friend. A kindred spirit.
