Martha complains of her sister
to Christ.
Luke 10:40
Now it came to pass, as they went, that he
entered into a certain village: and a certain woman named Martha received
him into her house. And she had a sister called Mary, which also sat at
Jesus' feet, and heard his word. But Martha was cumbered about much serving,
and came to him, and said, Lord, dost thou not care that my sister hath
left me to serve alone? bid her therefore that she help me. And Jesus answered
and said unto her, Martha, Martha, thou art careful and troubled about
many things: but one thing is needful: and Mary hath chosen that good part,
which shall not be taken away from her. (KJV)
