Who Is the Servant?
The Son of Man came to find lost people and save them.
Luke 19:10 (NCV)
Martha is worried about something good. She's having Jesus over for dinner. She's literally serving God. Her aim was to please Jesus. But she made a common, yet dangerous mistake. As she began to work for him, her work became more important than her Lord. What began as a way to serve Jesus, slowly and subtly became a way to serve self....She has forgotten that the meal is to honor Jesus, not Martha....
It's easy to forget who is the servant and who is to be served.
