Two sisters, Mary and Martha, were having a dinner party and invited Jesus. Martha was distracted with many things that day - the house had to look right, food had to be perfect, and people needed to be impressed. Mary on the other hand, could only be found in one place - at the feet of Jesus. Jesus told Martha, “Only one thing is necessary.” It was exactly what Mary was doing, spending time with Jesus. The realities of every day life are important and must be done, but, one thing truly does rise above all others, relationship with Jesus. From this one relationship flows everything else in life, and is truly “What a Soul Needs.”
