Mary & Martha: Friends of Jesus
As we enter Holy Week, what can we learn from Mary and Martha to deepen our relationship with God?
Week 5: The Never-Too-Busy-For-You God (MD & APK)
We live in busy, chaotic times and hurry from one thing to the next. When Jesus came to Earth, the demands on Him were extraordinary, and yet, even in his busyness, he was never too busy to reach the one person that needed Him. May you reach to Jesus today, knowing that He’s here for you. And may we never get too busy that we forget the power of reaching the one in need.
Do It Heartily as to the Lord
This is a message on diligence, however it is tempered with divine direction. All of us are busy, and it does little good to get us to go faster in the wrong direction, or make us busier doing the wrong things. Diligence needs to be selective. We need to do what the Spirit of God directs us to do and then do it heartily, without delay, distraction and regardless of the difficulty it may incur.

Perhaps you most identify with the religious leaders? You’re familiar with Jesus. but your heart is covered with calluses. You've heard the story so many times that you don't hear it anymore and you just don't care. Does the procrastinator group resonate with you? You know the need and you realize the peril, but you’d rather wait. Are you whispering to yourself? There's no hurry, I'll make time for Jesus…later. If God made time for us, can't we make time for Him this Christmas? Let's get ready for Christmas and make time for Jesus, beginning now.
Wisdom for Life: The Plans We Make (Proverbs 16:1-3)
We all have plans for our lives. Maybe they are intentional, or maybe they have been given to us by someone else. But how should we think about our plans for life when considering God? What part does He play in this?
