Staying positive by simplifying.
Spending time with God is more important than getting many things done or doing all things well.
Don't Just Do Something, Sit There
Introduction
I also suppose there were other times he enjoyed the company of friends in a home.
There was probably no home in all of Israel more valuable than the the home of Miriam and Martha the sisters of Lazarus.
When other doors were shut to him.
This door was open.
This home in Bethany was always open to him.

In this passage that we read.
This would be the last time he visits there.
You had to go through Bethany to get to Jerusalem.
When she hears that Yeshua is going to be coming through town, she wants to extend hospitality to him.
She wants to show him a gesture of appreciation.
Have you ever wondered how Yeshua spent his evenings and his nights?
Some of his disciples came to him early on to ask about the fringe benefits of discipleship.
Yeshua told them the foxes had holes and the birds had nests, but the Son of Man had no permanent place to put his head.
So I gather that there were times in Yeshua' life when he slept out in the field, with the sky for a blanket and a stone for a pillow.

But there were other times when Yeshua enjoyed the warmth and hospitality of good friends.
There was probably no home in all of Israel more valuable to him than the home of Martha, Miriam, and their brother Lazarus in the village of Bethany.
During the closing hours of his life, when other hearts and homes were shut to him, the door of this house in Bethany was open.
There is always a bit of a threat for a any woman to have guests in her house let alone that guest be Yeshua, let alone add 12 disciples.
That is pretty enormous challenge

In , Yeshua and his disciples are on their way to the capital city for the last time.
To get there, they have to go through the village of Bethany, a suburb about two miles east of Jerusalem.
When Martha hears that the disciples and Yeshua have hit town, she insists they come to her home for dinner.
She wants to show them through her hospitality how much she loves them.

It's always a bit of a threat, I think, for a woman to have a preacher in her home for dinner.
So to have 13 of them sitting in the living room is like an Olympic challenge!
I'm still in awe of what skilled cooks are able to do.
A good cook can take cold food from the refrigerator at one time, put hot food on the stove at another time, and make it all come out at the same time—and everybody has a good time!
From where I sit out there in the living room, the whole thing seems like a kind of minor miracle to me.
Introduction
Have you ever wondered how Yeshua spent his evenings and his nights?
Some of his disciples came to him early on to ask about the fringe benefits of discipleship.
Yeshua told them the foxes had holes and the birds had nests, but the Son of Man had no permanent place to put his head.
So I gather that there were times in Jesus' life when he slept out in the field, with the sky for a blanket and a stone for a pillow.
But as Martha was trying to pull off the miracle, it wasn't going very well.
The stove was giving off more smoke than heat.
The bread refused to rise.
Pretty soon the whole thing smelled more like a burnt offering than a dinner.
Finally, she looked around for her sister to help her.
She glanced into the living room, and there was Miriam, sitting at Yeshua's feet.
Perturbed, Martha came back into the kitchen, and she was as burned up as the dinner.
Then the volcano inside her exploded.
But there were other times when Yeshua enjoyed the warmth and hospitality of good friends.
There was probably no home in all of Israel more valuable to him than the home of Martha, Miriam, and their brother Lazarus in the village of Bethany.
During the closing hours of his life, when other hearts and homes were shut to him, the door of this house in Bethany was open.
She stormed into the living room, went up to Yeshua, and said: Lord, don't you care that I have to get this meal by myself?
Bid my sister come and help me!
