Most of us, in listening to
the Gospel, wish that Jesus had given Martha more credit. After all, he landed
in on her with his apostles to be fed.
She must have been a real stalwart woman.
Of course, we must agree with
Jesus in his saying that Mary had chosen the better part. He was telling us
that there is nothing we can do that would be better than giving him our full attention.
But it is a hard thing for us
to do. After all, we don't have Jesus physically present to us the way Mary had
him. The best we can do is to clear our
minds of all other thoughts, while we concentrate on his presence to us, hoping
he will break the silence.
