There is only one necessity in life and that is to hold Jesus Christ close. There are many things in this life that are out of reach, but here is a woman or man’s greatest need within the reach of it all. Sitting at Jesus’s feet, day by day, so that the Holy Spirit be refreshed and the soul rejuvenated.

It reads in Luke 10:38-42 EASY English Bible> Jesus and his disciples continued their journey. They arrived at a certain village. There, a woman called Martha asked Jesus to come into her home. Martha had a sister called Mary. Mary sat down near Jesus. She was listening to the things that he was teaching. But Martha was thinking to herself, ‘I cannot do all this work alone.’ So she went to Jesus. She said, ‘Master, my sister is not helping me with the work. She has left me to do it alone. You surely do not think that this is right! Tell her that she should help me!’ The Lord Jesus replied, ‘Martha, Martha, you have troubles in your mind about many things. But only one thing is really important. That is what Mary has chosen to do. Nobody will take it away from her.’
