It easy to forget why we are here and begin to lose focus upon our goal. The most trivial of things seem to be blown up hundred percent, but in reality our attitude is making things out to be worse then they really are.
I believe that both Martha and Mary had full knowledge of all the work that had to be done on that day. It therefore would seem like Mary was being lazy, but in reality she never lost focus of Christ and His wisdom. Martha on the other hand quickly got caught up in the work of the world and lost the focus of Christ in her life. Martha was indeed frustrated, but the voice of Christ called out to her to keep her focus upon Him.
We will leave this Church today and for each of us there will be a lot of work to be done. Some events that we encounter will come easy and without struggle while others will make us angry beyond belief. No matter what we encounter we must do "all things through Christ." By letting Christ into our daily work we will indeed have all that we need.
