Busywork stinks

Jesus encounters people who are too busy.

Luke 10:38-42

Busyness distracts us

Martha welcomed Jesus “Distracted by much serving”

You might be too busy if you have no time to listen to Jesus.

Busyness leads to whining

“Do you not care?” “Tell her to help me!”

You might be too busy if you whine about life not being fair.

Busyness misplaces priority

“You are anxious and troubled by many things” “Mary has chosen the good portion.”

You might be too busy if you have too many good things going on in your life.

Jesus encounters busy people: Distracted Frustrated Priorities
