Seeing Your Life
Through The Lens Of The Gospels:
Luke 10: 38-42.
1.
The two sisters, Martha and Mary, symbolise the contemplative
and active dimensions of life, at times difficult to
balance. What wisdom have you learned through life experiences
on how to strike a balance between prayer and action?
2.
Many people misunderstand hospitality. They worry and
fret about decorating the house and preparing abundant
food. Yet sometimes it is something else that is needed
to make people feel at home, namely, to sit with guests
and to listen to them speaking. What has been your experience
of being a cherished guest and when have you been able
to make others feel welcome and at home?
3. We
can make the same mistake in relation to people who
are important to us in life: children, friends, parents
or others. We can worry and fret about doing things
for them when perhaps the important thing is to give
them time and to listen to them. What does your experience
tell you?
