Jesus is the good portion. Our initial reaction to this text is not to find rest in Jesus, but to compare ourselves to Mary and Martha. And from that, we try to be like Mary. This passage of scripture doesn’t call you to be like Mary. That’s not the point. Yes, there are things you can learn both Mary and Martha, but Luke is more concerned with you seeing the value and worth of Jesus.
