Cross Fit: Part 2
Luke 10:38–42 NIV
38 As Jesus and his disciples were on their way, he came to a village where a woman named Martha opened her home to him. 39 She had a sister called Mary,
who sat at the Lord’s feet listening to what he said. 40 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!”
41 “Martha, Martha,” the Lord answered, “you are worried and upset about many things, 42 but few things are needed—or indeed only one. Mary has chosen what is better, and it will not be taken away from her.”
Distraction diverts our attention and affection away from God.
Mark 1:35 NIV
35 Very early in the morning, while it was still dark, Jesus got up, left the house and went off to a solitary place, where he prayed.
Solitude is how your soul detoxes.
NEXT STEPS

- I will remove one source of distraction this week.
- I will schedule one block of solitude – Write down what surfaces.
- I will sign up for Compassion Experience.
- I will memorize Luke 10:42.
42 but few things are needed—or indeed only one. Mary has chosen what is better, and it will not be taken away from her.”
