...but one thing is necessary

You know the story of Mary and Martha in the Gospels? Mary sitting listening to Jesus? Martha consumed with her tasks? And then Martha angry at Mary? And appealing to Jesus? Who will surely side with her?

Isn't this verse stunningly timeless to your life:
But the Lord answered her, "Martha, Martha, you are anxious and troubled about many things, but one thing is necessary. Mary has chosen the good portion, which will not be taken away from her."
It ain't rocket science...
