First Things First

from PATHWAY CITY CHURCH · host Pathway City Church

Jesus addresses an important issue in the 10th chapter of the Gospel of Luke: confusion of worship with service. In Martha's frustration with having to serve alone, Jesus redirects her heart toward worship by pointing to Mary who was listening at His feet. We learn that though toiling for the kingdom is a noble necessity, we must not confuse it with worship and devotion; these two are meant to exist in harmony at the core of our being in Him. Jesus wishes us not to neglect dwelling at his feet for our engrossing works. We are also reminded that we were made for Him and by Him, therefore, our fellowship with Him should be first and foremost.
