My husband was working as an usher for the Time Out For Women seminar once. There were tables set up of the books they were selling from the Authors who were speaking at the Seminar. So he got me that book Mary, Martha & Me. I started it back in September but did not get very far before school picked up and I had to put the book down.
Recently I have decided to give it another try. Every night for about 20 minutes I take some time to myself and pull it out. I do not know how many of you out there have ever caught yourself looking at what you have done and comparing it to another or if you have noticed someone always trying to compare their works to yours. The thing I have noticed about gospel literature is that even though we have read the scriptures over and over again and tried to apply them to our lives, sometimes it just makes more sense when we someone else spells it out for us. This has been a great book to remind me that I need to choose the better part and do those things that the Lord has set for me to do.
