1 i WOMAN'S CHOICE (A sermon -by the Rev. Joel B. J Slocum, pastor of 'he Greenwood B«P- ( tlst Church, Brooklyn. , "One thing js needful: for Mary ( hath chosen the good psrt, which shall , not be taken away from her." — Luke 10y»2 Mr. Slocum said in the course of nis 1 Mrmon: This incident occurs between the Story of the Good Samaritan on the one hand and on th^other the teaching ' of Jesus concerning prayer. Those two ' discussions disclose, respectivelv, how ' to give to one's fe'.lowmen and how to get from God. The. narrative- from which our text is taken seems almost ] like an intentional illustration of these { two ideas. Let me live in a house by the side of the road, And be a friend to man. So sings one of our poets. But alas! Some of life's roads are infested with 1 robbers. Such was the case of the road that led from Jerusalem to Jericho. It was a frequent thing, < here to "fall among thieves." But on that : same road, as a beautiful offset <o its : dangers, stood the hospitable home of Mary and Martha and Lasarus. It Was a home of comfort and of Chris- 1 thui culture. Its d' on were ever oper: to the poor and unfortunate as well as to the wealthy and wise. J^sus HimSelf was a frequent guest, and to Him It was home indeed, Summoned from , beyond Jordan with the message of the sickness of Lararus whom Hd strongly lov- d. He performed there yie of ths greatest of all His miracles. During the closing days of His career He

- h found in that home a sympathetic ref- {j uge from the storm that was breaking | about Him. It was there that He re- , ceived, at the hands of Mary, the most '' conspicuous of the few honors that fell to His earthlv lot. The aroma of the precious nard has penetrate the cen- ® turies. On the occasion indicated 'by the t Martha, who was evidently Che , older sister, was animated by "a con- c trolling desire to pleas- her most dis- j. tinguished Guest. It was she who took t charge ot the preparations for the din- c ner. Serving appears to have been one „ of her congenial oc-upa. ions, not only r at home but also, at times among 0 her neighbors. She was one of those B women whom everybody sends for c in bouts of emergency. Sbe took pride c in her ability ani her benevolent ■ spirit deli. hied itself in domestic enterpris s that brought satisfaction to many friends. I But today something has gone wrong ; | i undoubtedly many I bines have miscar- ■ ried. Possibly some of the provisions y ere not delivered in time. The butcher < or the baker or the grocer may have . ; failed at tbe.critical momeut. At any , rate, Martha, for once, has lost her ( i poise ; and along with her poise goes . her patience. Disappointed, petulant, disti acted, she suddenly rushes into the ( i guest oom. , i The Master and ths oth -r guests are ■ reclining upon their dining couches at i i the table. Mary, in the posture of a ^ i pupil, aits behind Jesus at His feet. . : Her position there in the shadow is en- I ' > tirely modest »nd humble. She does no | i wish to be seen ■ r even to be beard, t She onl desires to catch the golden ' ■ words that drop f qpi < he lips of Him , • wbo^spake as never man spate. That she had been a sisting Ma tha is ev - 1 denced by th«* latter's owu declaration: ( and there is no good reason for supposing that Mjiry did not finish whatever 1 task had been allotted to her in the kitchen. Having completed her work, : it was only natural that she should re- ' spo'nd to a twofold impulse ; to be in ' His'presence for His own sake, as an 1 honor to the Guest ; and to be there for | her sake, that she might satisfy her | hungering after righteousness. She had already learned that life does not r depend on bread alone, but upon the | words of God ; and she n.ust have comprehendfd the declaration of Jesus c when He said : "My meat is to do the will of Him that sent me." There are some things more important than the ■ importance of a good dinner, however j essential that may happen to be. ) With impatience in her manner and l« irritability in her tone, Martha, in the * hearing of all the company, complains : " "Lord, dost thou not care th»' my sis- ® ter did leave me to serve alone? Bid j her therefore that she help me." It is an embarrassing moment * Martha has precipitated an unpleasant J scene. Everybody looks at Jesus, e What will he say? As usual. He is Master. Sympathising with her .dis J tress and yet gently rebuking her ex- * oesaive anxiety, Jesus shows Martha that there is such a thing as too much m entertainment that among many im- « porta nt considerations, there is one Is thing of supreme value, compared with which the preparation mod partaking n of dinners is the merest trifle. By a * repetition of hen name, evidently tola tended to recall her better self. Be a exclaims : Martha. Martha, thou art t

anxious and troubled ahout wary thing's but one thing is- needful, for Mary hath choeen the good part, w hich shall not be taken away from her." b It was aa though He bad paid: "These s things you are ao concerted about are , of some importance in theit place, but j theirs is not the chief place. Tbey y are not worthy the time and the energy g you are today expending on them. 0" the other band, there is one abeolutdy ^ indispensable requisite for life, mamt g ly, ao implicit investment in the kingdom of heaven. That is the good part, "the choice bit,' to use a phra-e of the , kitchen, which your sister has taken j and nothing can rob her of the possession. Work not for the food that per- ( iahes but for the fon^ which abides un- j to eternal life." , Had Martha been content to prepare an ordinary meal, plain, amvle and , wnolesome, she, too. would hava had 1 time to enjoy the bread of life. t Alas. J that in her anxiety to do something for , the comfort of her Lord, sbe should « have forgotten v bo# much more He : could do for her. The cares of this J life,- like weeds rank and dense, chrked. ] fat a time at least, the fair flower of i her faith. The camels thai crorf* the desert carrying precious' mefchandis- to distant people are often compelled to eat the ; bitter, stunted heiba of the, desert. : Thus there are people of good intention but oi poor judgment who in their anxiety to supply the material needs of others starve tbeir owu immortal souls. Mary's was a fine balance between tbe life of receptivity on the one hand and aAivity on the other. 8be was already undertaking what Jesus later enjoined upon the disciples wbeu He requested them to remain in Jerusalem until they should secure the enduemert of tbe Holy Spirit. At the feet oi

her Lord sbe tarried long enongb to catch His spirit and learn His will. {Then she went forth to bresk the alabaster box of ber devotion to her Lord { service Jfor* her fellowmen. While' the coming of Jesus to Bctha- y ! brought, that day, only distraction and worry to Martha, it hrought a i heavenly peace to Mary. Martha be- • came a victro while Mary became vicof circumstances. Martha's life compelled by a series of worldly . while Mary's was propelled by the power of an inward devotion to the things of God. Mary's was the better choice, because, while she did not igthe claim of worldly duties, she rose above them 'o the contemplation of spiritual ideals, without which the soul must die. She controlled her circumstances, while Martha's drcums'anc s controlled her.
