Sitting At The Feet of Jesus

"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" (Luke 10:38-39).

What a wonderful place to be; sitting at the feet of Jesus, hearing His word. Looking at this scene we first note what this posture reveals. It displays a humble spirit and a desire to learn. Next we observe the benefits received. At the feet of Jesus, His disciples learn to be more like Him and to live to His glory. Finally, we observe the importance of the experience.
