Women of the Scriptures - Martha
Favorite place to eat: My own home, where I can make my guests feel comfortable.
Favorite food: I like simple foods like warm bread and
homemade soup.
Education: My sister and I were both educated by our
parents and elders in the village.
Favorite thing about
where I live: I share a home with my
sister Mary and brother Lazarus.
Favorite thing to do
with my family: I love serving my
family, keeping the house clean and preparing meals for us to all sit down and
eat together.
Children: I am not married and have no children,
but sometimes I feel like the mother of my sister and brother. Perhaps Heavenly Father is just giving me
practice for later in my life when I am blessed with a family.
Where did you grow
up: Bethany, just a few miles
outside of Jerusalem.
Hobbies: Since Jesus’ first visit I have been trying to
relax a little more and listen to his wonderful stories when he comes through
Bethany. I love that he stays in our
home while he is here. (Luke 10:38-42)
Anything else
interesting about you: My brother,
Lazarus, died of a terrible sickness recently.
He lay in the grave for four days before Jesus came and raised him from
the dead and brought him back to us.
(John 11)
