When It’s Good To Be Unapologetic

Send us Fan MailWhen It’s Good To Be Unapologetic “She had a sister named Mary, who sat at Jesus's feet and listened to what he was saying.” - Luke 10:39Jesus had many disciples or students, not just twelve. Many of them were women. Of all the disciples named in the New Testament, Mary is one of my favorites. Women in that society were not as free to drop everything and travel around with Jesus as frequently as his male disciples. So, the opportunity to study with Jesus was precious and rare. Mary decided that there no one and nothing was going to rob her of the opportunity to sit at the teacher’s feet with some of the other disciples. Mary refused to yield to the societal pressure to be what was considered a good host, or the likely exceptions of the men that the women would serve them, or even her own sister’s expectation that she would help out.Mary was unapologetic in her identity as a disciple or student of Jesus. She was completely unapologetic about getting the training and experience she needed to grow when it was available. Sometimes to be and become who we are meant to be or capable of becoming, we have to be completely unapologetic about defying externally imposed expectations when those expectations are hindering us. I’m Horace McMillon.
