There’s Something About Mary

There’s Something About Mary

Reach Out – I met a lady today at Metropolitan Ministries who volunteers 48 hours a week! Her name is Ms. Mary.  The hours she spends sorting clothes, stocking shelves, cleaning floors, etc. can be measured.  But her spirit of dedication and compassion for those in need can’t be measured in hours.  It is her interaction (a smile, a hug, an encouraging word) with those that are hurting that means the most.  She serves the Lord with all she has and demonstrates her love for Him through service to others. 

Reach Up – This reminds me of the story of Mary and Martha in Hebrews 10:38–41

Reach In –  Are you a Martha running around doing tasks to please the Lord?  Or are you a Mary who takes the time to sit at Jesus feet and spend time with Him?   We all are a little of both.  How can we be more like Mary in this hectic world?
