Embracing the Spirit of Mary: Finding Peace Amidst Life's Chaos
In this homily, we reflect on a memorable saying from a former bishop about 'pretending to be busy' and draw insights from the Gospel story of Martha and Mary. The speaker emphasizes the importance of prioritizing prayer, family, and true community over the often self-imposed busyness of modern life. Reflecting on the burdens of feeling constantly overwhelmed, the script encourages embracing a 'Mary-like' approach by focusing on what truly matters, spending time with loved ones, and not being afraid to 'waste time' with God. The message underscores letting go of less important tasks to live a more fulfilling, spiritually rich life.
