The Closet

This one hits a little closer to home for me (and I know a few of you as well) than I would like.

If you go into the closet to pray- don't clean the closet while you're in there....just pray. If you must clean something, take the time to clean out your heart.

It's so easy to see all the things that need to be done, getting distracted from what is really important. May we find a way to focus more fully on Him, leaving distraction (and clutter )behind.

Luke 10:38-42
Now it happened as they went that He entered a certain village; and a certain woman named Martha welcomed Him into her house.
And she had a sister called Mary, who also sat at Jesus' feet and heard His word.
But Martha was distracted with much serving, and she approached Him and said, "Lord, do You not care that my sister has left me to serve alone? Therefore tell her to help me."
And Jesus answered and said to her, "Martha, Martha, you are worried and troubled about many things.
"But one thing is needed, and Mary has chosen that good part, which will not be taken away from her."
