Luke 10:38-42 – My Paraphrase

Now as they went on their way, Jesus entered a certain village, where a woman named Martha welcomed him as a guest into her home. She had a sister named Mary, who sat down beside Jesus’ feet and listened to what he was saying.  But Martha was driven to distraction by much serving; so she came to him and asked, “Lord, don’t you care that my sister has left me to do all the work by myself? Tell her to help me.” But the Lord answered her, “Martha, Martha, you are anxious and disturbed by many things, but only one thing is necessary.  Mary has chosen what is best, and it will not be taken away from her.”
