MARTHA AND MARY TODAY
She’s a Mary woman
Living in a Martha world
She’s loving
She’s praying
She’s going
To Mass every day
She knows
That it is love
That is important
In every way
She forgot to clean
She forgot to cook
She’ll get to it
When she gets to it
That’s just her way
She’s a Mary woman
Living in a Martha world
She’s loving
She’s praying
She’s going
To Mass every day
She knows
That it’s love
That is important
In every way
She’s a Mary woman
Living in a Martha world
She’s driving
Her children to soccer practice
To school to and from
Between that and
Cleaning and cooking
She’s all out of time
All the above
Is important
We know that too
But don’t forget to be
A Mary woman
In today’s world too
Be a little Mary too
Be loving
Be praying
Go to
The Church ( Temple ,
Mosque ) of your choice too
Be a Mary woman
In our world too

Ps For the
women of TODAY
July 29th-is
the feast day of Saint Martha
“As Jesus
and his disciples were on their way
He came
to a village where a woman named Martha
Opened
her home to him
She had a
sister called Mary-who sat at the Lord’s feed
Listening
to what he said
But
Martha was distracted by all the preparations
That had
to be made
She came
to him and asked,
“Lord-don’t you care that my sister has left me
To do
the work by herself
TELL HER
to help me!”
“MARTHA-MARTHA”-the Lord answered
You are
worried and upset about many things
But
only ONE THING is needed
Mary
has chosen what is BETTER
And it
will NOT be taken away from her” Luke 38-42
