Martha vs Mary

I love my church – it is fairly small which means that everyone knows everyone else which makes it feel much more like you are part of a church family. The disadvantage of being quite small is that once you start volunteering to take on things, sometimes Sundays can feel a little hectic. This morning felt like I was rushing about trying to do too many tasks and being Martha when what I really wanted to do was to be Mary instead, to sit down and just enjoy spending time with God. Sometimes serving the church can distract from worshipping God.
