Though they have wisdom and ability to understand and consider earthly things, yet they will bestow none of it upon the things of heaven. Christ rebuked Martha when he saw her so busy about worldly business, (Luke 10.41.) Martha, Martha, thou art careful and troubled about many things, one thing is needful; Martha had some care about the one thing needful, but because not so much as she should, Christ gave her a gracious check and reproof for it: How much more may Christ come and rebuke the men of the world, ye are careful about many things, ye are wife considering men about your profits and preferments, those ye can think of all night long; but there is one thing needful, my ways, my word, my commandments are to be considered, what account can ye give of or concerning them?
