we are wrong if we praise Martha

we are wrong if we praise Martha
if we seek balance
we have missed the lesson
what Christ spoke
Christ didn’t say do less
to be a little Mary
Christ said to sit, to come,
to follow her example

we are wrong if we praise Martha
if we seek balance
there is always work to do
but there is only one Jesus
we are to be like the fishermen
leaving their nets, their fathers,
all they have ever known
to rest at the feet of Jesus
