MARY AND MARTHA
Mary seeks light, sits at His feet
Head held high, hoping eyes to meet
Steadies her gaze upon His face
Enthralled by His love, His peace, His grace
Martha seeks light, stands at His side
Captures each word, as through the room glides
Hopes her devotion He still can see
Seeking to serve, though not at His knee
Both seek His light…at His feet, by His side
One sees, one hears… their souls to Him tied…
Poem by Karen Nelson
Mary and Martha
approach the Lord in very different ways, as do we, with evidence that we have
honored the gifts He has given us to work with on earth to beautify, bless and “Come
Unto Him.” Each unique offering is
graciously and gratefully accepted.
