Martha asks, “Am I doing the right thing?” The Corinthians asked, “Is this allowed?” Paul asks a different question entirely, “What kind of person and community are we becoming?” He wants us to use a new filter: Does it build up? Does it give life? Does it deepen love in Christ?
We live in a world that is constantly competing for our attention, but the deepest question is not what captures our attention—it is what deserves it. Increasingly, what keeps us from the life of Christ himself – that resurrected, powerful life filled with the Spirit – isn’t the BAD stuff. It’s filters. Distractions. The world is eager to tell us where fullness can be found. More achievement. More consumption. More visibility. More urgency. More power. More of whatever keeps us moving fast enough that we never stop long enough to ask whether we're becoming wise.
When all the while, the call of Jesus is simply to sit and be. The work will come in due time.
