“But Martha was cumbered about [overly occupied…]”. Luke 10:40 KJV/AMP I don’t commonly use the word “cumbered” in my daily vocabulary. Honestly, I had to look a little deeper into this word.

Finding my way at FORTY (two)
Does your soul ever feel unraveled? My soul came undone this week like a skien of yarn. One pick of thread led to a full blown come apart.
