Sixteenth Sunday in Ordinary Time

The demands of hospitality require us not only the look after the physical needs of the guests, but also to spend time with them. Martha forgets that, and accuses Mary of not caring, while Mary has remembered to take time to spend with the Lord, their guest.

OUr lives can be filled with much anxiety, and we can be like Martha and tell the Lord what we are doing, but His invitation remains - we are to spend time with Him!
