“These days we need to know the secret that’s been occupied only with Him and not with “things.” Martha got into trouble worried about “things.” Mary got into blessing by being occupied with Him. As a faithful Shepherd our Lord must lead us into the shadows as well as into the sunshine. It is how we react that makes the difference between defeat and victory. If we become preoccupied with the shadows, we will become cynical, bitter, discouraged, and defeated. If we become preoccupied with the sunshine, we will become self-satisfied, self-centered, thoughtless the other, and worse still, forgetful of Him. But if we remain preoccupied with the Shepherd, regardless of shadow or sunshine, we will survive the peril of both with Victory!” page 46
