Jesus Visits Mary and Martha Luke 10:38-42
“There is only one thing worth being concerned about. Mary has discovered it, and it will not be taken away from her” (Luke 10:42).
Jesus visits his friends Mary and Martha. Martha gets upset because she’s doing all the cooking while Mary just sits and talks to Jesus. Jesus says it’s most important to spend time with him. That’s because Jesus wants to be our friend.
Through the Week
Have some fun with friends to remember that Jesus wants to be our friend, too.
- Plan something to do with one or two of your kids’ friends—like going to the park or having them over for dinner.
- Before you see the friends, think about what you could do to make them feel special—like decorating their chairs at the table or asking them to share about an interest or hobby.
- Plan some games or activities—and enjoy being together!
Talk About This…
- Tell about how you met one of your friends and why you like being friends with that person.
