Luke 10:38-42 'Now it came to pass, as they went, that he entered into a certain village: and a certain woman named Martha received him into her house. And she had a sister called Mary, which also sat at Jesus' feet, and heard his word. But Martha was cumbered about much serving, and came to him, and said, Lord, dost thou not care that my sister hath left me to serve alone? bid her therefore that she help me. And Jesus answered and said unto her, Martha, Martha, thou art careful and troubled about many things: But one thing is needful: and Mary hath chosen that good part, which shall not be taken away from her
Although being a busy body is discouraged in church, at the same time you should not limit your potential for to whom much is given, much is expected. When you have been given much, you should do much. Simply know what the Lord has called you to do and do it.
You surely need other people's help in accomplishing that vision only it shouldn't be by complaining. Complainers always tend to say they are doing much but they don't know the damage they are doing to others, to order and affairs of the churches they belong to. That's exactly what happened here, Martha tried disrupting the sharing Jesus was doing!
Child of God, order is disrupted by complaints. Desist from complaints and focus on Jesus.

1 Peter 5:7 says casting all your care on Him [the Lord] for He cares for you. Do not complain about other people, give them to Jesus for He cares for you.
