Do you take notes? I admit I am a note-taker. I took notes in school and still take them in Bible Study, and during the sermon, and sometimes during a phone call. A stenopad might be seen on my counter so that it is always handy.
As I prepare for vacation, I began to realize I even keep lists at times. It’s not a “to-do” list but more of a “don’t forget” list.
In the midst of jotting down some vacation notes, I paused to think about two women in the Bible. They were sisters who displayed different qualities. Qualities worth taking note of, and yes, the pun was intended.
I imagine Martha would have been a note-taker and a list-maker. Her home was the place to which Jesus came to eat. She obviously had the gift of hospitality and exercised it well.
There was just one problem. Scripture tells us she was a woman who became distracted by her list.
Won’t you join me at Woman to Woman Ministries HERE as we look at the problem our lists can create.
