She sits and listens
Intent on every word
Not once does she visit the kitchen
Where I need her help, her assistance
There is so much to do, so many tasks
And she simply won’t help me
She sits at His feet
Listening and heeding
His every word brings a peace
To her expression…
What could He be saying?
She looks so content there at His feet
Smiling her love, so attentive
She should be helping me, shouldn’t she?
I think I’ll go in and tell Him…
Mary isn’t helping me with the meal…
He’ll surely make her come in and help me
When I told Him I needed her help with these things…
Jesus told me…
**“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.”
Yes, she sits at His feet, breathless with pleasure
She sees that this is what she needs…
His light poured out over her soul, shining in hope
Whispering love, coloring her thoughts
In brilliant rays of faith that comes to life with His words.
Just being with the Lord. This is our greatest need!
** Luke 10:41-42 (KJV)
