Sitting at His Feet

Mary...seated herself at the feet of Jesus...
She sat there at His feet, content
Whispering, "Yes, Lord, I want You,
I want to breathe You in...
I love Your words...they comfort me, encourage me, lift my spirit.
They give me a new way to think, a new way to look at life.
Your words speak hope into me
They bring peace to my spirit.
Your words are different than any other,
They are words of life
Words of love
Words of acceptance....."

Mary stayed at Jesus feet.
She wasn't interested in a quick fix, a mend job,
Or a pat on the back of a duty done for the day...
No, she wanted more
More of His presence, His light, His truth.

And so she stayed and listened
Becoming acquainted with His voice
Allowing His words to change her, transform her, beautify herr
She stayed there...falling in love again and again.

Jesus replied, "One thing is necessary, what Mary has chosen is best,
And it cannot be taken from her."
