Gospel Reflection

As they continued their journey
he entered a village
where a woman whose name was Martha
welcomed him.
She had a sister named Mary
[who] sat beside the Lord
at his feet listening to him speak.
Martha, burdened with much serving,
came to him and said,
“Lord, do you not care that my sister
has left me by myself to do the serving?
Tell her to help me.”
The Lord said to her in reply,
“Martha, Martha,
you are anxious and worried
about many things.
There is need of only one thing.
Mary has chosen the better part
and it will not be taken from her.”

Luke 10:38-42

Point for Reflection
Have you chosen the better part?
