It is so easy to be consumed with a multitude of good things in ministry that can divert us from the one thing—a passionate pursuit of Christ. Spurgeon reminds us to seek Him. When we do, everything else will fall into its proper place. I thought of how easy it is to be a Martha scurrying about serving—and developing a cranky spirit. Then, there was Mary, seeking—and developing her love for Jesus. What does the Lord say, “But one thing is needed, and Mary has chosen that good part, which will not be taken away from her.” (Luke 10:42 NKJV). Men—preach good sermons, perform good service, but pursue the Savior above all! As you lead in worship today, be the lead worshipper, whose public exaltation of Christ on the Lord’s Day is rooted in the daily devotion of time spent at Jesus’ feet!
