Jesus Loved Mary and Martha Bible Phrase: Jesus loved people. Matthew 14:14 Scripture Reference: Luke 10:38-42 Bible Story: Jesus and His helpers were traveling. They came
to the town where two sisters lived. The sisters were named Mary and Martha. Jesus and His helpers walked to Mary and Martha’s house. The sisters were so happy to see Jesus. Mary sat on the floor near Jesus. She listened carefully as Jesus talked. Mary wanted to hear everything Jesus said. While Mary was listening, Martha was getting a meal ready for Jesus. Then Martha walked over to Jesus and said, “Jesus, I’m doing all of the work by myself. Don’t You think Mary should be helping me? Tell Mary to help me.” In a kind voice, Jesus said, “Martha, do not worry about what needs to be done. Mary is listening to Me, and that is very important.” Jesus loved His friends Martha and Mary. They loved Jesus, too.
Parents:
• This week, when it is appropriate, remind your child that Jesus was kind and loving to people. • Find Matthew 14:14 in your Bible. Point to it as you say the Bible phrase “Jesus loved people” to your child.
