GOD I NEED TIME

GOD I NEED TIME to connect!
I don't suppose you've got some?
Else my life is crashed, & wrecked,
disappointment reigns in glum

contra-distinction to your
bright joy, which gives strength and light
(nothing of me will "adore",
"sur-viv-al" - is ALL in sight!)

GOD I NEED TIME to connect!
with you, and those you've given.
Where it went I can't suspect.
I've worked so hard and striven.

Did YOU take it all away
(to leave time for the next job)?
What was that I heard you say?
Did Martha, or Mary, sob?


As Jesus and his disciples went on their way, he came to a village where a woman named Martha welcomed him in her home. She had a sister named Mary, who sat down at the feet of the Lord and listened to his teaching. Martha was upset over all the work she had to do, so she came and said, “Lord, don't you care that my sister has left me to do all the work by myself? Tell her to come and help me!”  The Lord answered her, “Martha, Martha! You are worried and troubled over so many things, but just one is needed. Mary has chosen the right thing, and it will not be taken away from her.”
