Hook: Looking back, what were some of the best and worst priority choices you made in life?

Book: The conflict between Mary and Martha illustrates the priorities people bring to life choices. Jesus wanted Martha to know that some things can be more critical in life at certain times. Mary could do housework anytime, but hearing Jesus was the chance of a lifetime. Daily routines can consume you at the expense of the spiritual. Even spiritual activities can become a substitute for genuine faith and life change.
