Martha was too concerned with day-to-day matters to find time to simply sit down and absorb Jesus' teachings. Jesus gently chides her for letting her worries blind her to her spiritual need. http://biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Luke.10.38-39&version=NIV 2009-07-16T16:44:37-05:00 Mary and Martha were sisters who opened their home to Jesus. When he went to visit them, Mary sat at his feet and listened to all he had to say.
