FOCUS ON YOUR PRIORITIES

MEMORY VERSE: “And Jesus answered and said unto her, Martha, Martha, thou art careful and troubled about many things” (Luke 10:41).

TEXT: LUKE 10: 38-42

The case of Martha is very common to many youths. Another way to describe this kind of situation is majoring on minor things. Martha thought that she was being hospitable by being busy trying to prepare something for Christ to eat and drink. However, Christ told her to stop majoring on minor things. In other words, studying God’s Word is more important than food. Matthew Henry said, “The laying up of God’s oracles in our hearts will be of excellent use to us in all our conduct.”

A young man once told his parents that he would not go to the university until he got married. In as much as marriage is good, it should not come before education and career. The wise king Solomon said, “To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven” (Ecclesiastes 3:1). Jesus in this story is telling youths to stop focusing on what may be important but not urgent and begin to focus on what is both important and urgent. As for Martha’s matter, the Word comes before food.

QUOTE: The Word comes before food.

PRAYER: Help me, Lord, to do the needful, in Jesus’ name. Amen!

CHALLENGE: Tackle first the important and urgent.
