Choose the Good Part

Wisdom to Change

But one thing is needed, and Mary has chosen that good part, which will not be taken away from her. Luke 10:42


In life many choose the path of obtaining money, cars, clothes, jewelry, looking for love and many other things. The enemy does everything he can to keep the focus on what we see and not what we should be focusing on-Jesus. He lies by asking us how we can pray for someone else when we ourselves are going through. We need more money, clothing, a car, I need, I need, boy do I need. We even focus on what people think about us, will he or she ever change, will I get the job I desire, will I ever find true love, will this relationship ever work out or will I ever see the light of day. We all have many questions that need an answer. But did you know the answer is right inside of you? You may ask what I mean. The answer has always been with you but the focus was wrong. You see, Jesus is the answer, has all the answers and He lives inside of you with the answer. Jesus is the good part.


In the Word of God, Martha was distracted, worried and troubled. Now that’s a triple whammy. Distracted, worried and troubled. Jesus told Martha one thing is needed, and Mary has chosen that good part. You see that, Jesus said one thing is needed. We are created to enjoy a deep and intimate relationship with Him and yes things that we need to take care of is important, but they must never overshadow the fellowship He desires to have with each of us.


The good part is seeking Him; spending time in His Word; listening, and then obeying; praying for others and watching God take care of your needs. The good part is seeking first the Kingdom of God and His righteousness and seeing all things be added to us. The good part is keeping our eyes on the prize which is the high calling of Jesus Christ. In all that we do, we should do it as unto the Lord and not to men, for this is the good part. Choosing the good part will always lead us to a path that’s everlasting and whenever we choose the good part answers will come, trust will grow, confidence will increase and peace will flow like a river.

Let’s choose the good part and watch God move on over behalf.


Have a Beautiful Day
