Hi Everyone!

This is just a short blog – something for you to ponder on your journey with YAHSHUAH our Messiah.

II Timothy 2:15 states, “Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the Word of Truth.”

When we look at Luke 10:38-42:

Now it came to pass, as they went, that He entered into a certain village: and a certain woman named Martha received Him into her house.  And she had a sister called Mary, which also sat at Jesus’ feet, and heard His Word.  But Martha was cumbered about much serving, and came to Him, and said, Lord, dost thou not care that my sister hath left me to serve alone?  Bid her therefore that she help me.  And Jesus answered and said unto her, “Martha, Martha, thou art careful and troubled about many things: but one thing is needful: and Mary hath chosen that good part, which shall NOT be taken away from her.”

Mary “studied to show herself approved unto God” by sitting at Jesus’ feet; while Martha was “careful and troubled about many things;” by carrying out works.

The moral of the story is that IF you are too tired, worn out, physically exhausted, stretched too far to the max, THEN just say NO Thank You!  There are many other ways for you to serve Father YAHWEH – everyone has a few God given talents/gifts – share what you can do within your group that you are comfortable with doing, and don’t let anyone hinder you in your walk with YAHSHUAH our Messiah!

Just food for thought…

YAHWEH Bless!
