Christ preached Mary – v2

Christ preached Mary
trusting God for everything;
To stop, to listen,
to sit at the feet
of the living God.

The world preaches Martha
striving forward;
Always busy
never time
for Jesus-rest.

The world preaches Martha
that we are to be working;
Out in the world
no time to stop
for Jesus-rest.

Christ preached Mary
that God provides for us;
If we just let Him
all that we need is given
and more besides.
