I am a Martha and have struggled with this for a long time. Somehow, trying to be more like “Mary” is another kind of striving and doing…just like the Martha that I am. I am still learning how to be still, how to really hear, how to just BE and most of all to allow Jesus to remind me in so many ways that He is all I really need.
I hope I am not being forward Bonnie but I’m going to suggest you read Sean of the South’s Dispatch from the Camino. Reading it as they walked the 500 mile French road, gave me hope for community and for each and all of us as we entrust our lives to the risen Lord. Sometimes alone and sometimes with others. Whether you read it not and whether you are encouraged or not, may you be blessed this day. I am encouraged by your writing. Thank you.
Cynthia your comment is timely! I have been following his journey and it is inspiring. I am a big fan of his and have seen him here locally. Also, my sister is making the very same pilgrimage this June. 🙏🏼🧡 I hope you'll join me in praying for her protection and many blessings on his journey. Thank you for reading and for sharing!
I just discovered your Pointed Arrow, Bonnie after listening to a Seedbed episode you narrated. And subscribed, listened to this Student Of Roses.
It’s touched me and I’m going back to listen to it a few more times. Going to be finding some Roses or other flowers today to just observe and meditate on your words here. 🌹

Thanks Bonnie!
It might be necessary but it is secondary. I love that. 🧡💙

Praying this morning and your sister’s Camino came to my mind. When does she leave or has she already started?
She leaves June 16th! Thank you for remembering her in your prayers. 🧡💙
Just let me know dates and more if possible.
Absolutely!

Everyday we have a new opportunity to get it right. I needed to hear that.
Oh Bonnie - that was so lovely. You open my eyes to so much. Thank you.
Thank you for seeing & encouraging us Martha's. 🤍
Beautiful! Thank you for sharing! ❤️
Thanks be to God!
