Luke 10: 38-42 (NIV)
As Jesus and his disciples were on their way, he came to a
village where a woman named Martha opened her home to him.
She had a sister called Mary, who sat at the Lord’s feet listening
to what he said. But Martha was distracted by all the preparations
that had to be made. She came to him and asked,
“Lord, don’t you care that my sister has left me
to do the work by myself? Tell her to help me!”
“Martha, Martha,” the Lord answered, “you are worried and upset
about many things, but few things are needed – or indeed only one.
Mary has chosen what is better, and it will not be taken away from her.”

Revelation 3:20 (NIV)
Here I am! I stand at the door and knock.
If anyone hears my voice and opens the door,
I will come in and eat with that person, and they with me.
