We need to be aware all the time as soon as we start leaning too much one way and restore the balance as soon as we can. Life long learning I believe. Thanks for stopping by the blog.

I have felt called this past year to sit at his feet and keep wondering when he plans to move me. I am learning the answer is probably never! LOL

I could relate to a lot of what you said here. I love being Mary but I know I need to be Martha too sometimes!
I wrote reflection on this gospel too. Go figure.

Yes…balance is key…isn’t it, my friend! Not sure any of us really “master” that…but by grace all of us can pursue the growth of our hearts, while being busy producing with our hands!

I long to sit at His feet, if only I could stop long enough. Thank you for sharing this post at The Weekend Brew!

Great post, as I heard the same Gospel today. I was reading a reflection on this passage, and it was very much like your idea.

i like the idea of being so much more at ease with my guests! It really is respectful.

I LOVE Henri Nouwen. I just got back from a trip that included a visit to the Hermitage in Russia. Stop by my blog to see a photo of The Return of the Prodigal Son. (Its not that great a picture, but I so enjoyed being there!)

Great to stop by today 🙂

Peace in Christ,
Ceil

This is the prayer of my heart too!
