Living with a Split Personality
I have discovered that I have a split personality. No really! One minute, I am this person, the very next, I am someone else! Really if you think about it, we all have split personalities. Now I haven't went totally off the deep end. I'm sure everyone has heard or read the book on How to be a Mary in a Martha World. Sometimes we have no choice to be Martha. If things are going to get done, whether in everyday life or in the kingdom, you have to get busy. Yet at the same time, if you don't take the time to be Mary for a little while, all those things will be for naught. I will admit, I feel like I have given in to my Martha side more than Mary here lately. We are starting up this outreach program, and I want it to be the best that it can be. That takes work and time and energy. Please don't get me wrong. I'm not complaining in the least little bit. I am so excited! God has already opened up doors and done marvelous things! But how absolutely sweet it was Sunday night to be able to sit at the feet of Jesus and let him minister to and through me! That's where we gather our strength to step into the role of Martha again. So in all honesty, I don't mind having a split personality. I wouldn't want it any other way. I am so thankful that God has called me for the work of His kingdom. And I will give Him my all until He comes again. But I will cherish the time spent alone in His presence, letting Him speak to the core of my being. I love Him so very much. Isn't He an amazing God to create something as complex as I certainly seem to be?!
