In the midst of our hectic lives, let's draw inspiration from Mary's intentional choice to sit at Jesus' feet, soaking in His teachings with a heart hungry for wisdom. In Luke 10:38-42 (ESV), Jesus commends Mary's decision, emphasizing that her choice of the "good portion" won't be taken away. 


Consider your daily routine as a classroom where valuable lessons are taught. Like Mary, position yourself at the feet of the ultimate Teacher, Jesus Christ. This isn't just about a physical posture; it's an active engagement of your heart and mind. It’s also a show of honor, humility, and submission to the Lord Jesus Christ. As you face the demands of the day, be intentional about carving out moments to sit at Jesus' feet, whether through prayer, Scripture reading, or quiet reflection.


By actively sitting at His feet, you open yourself to the transformative power of His teachings, and become more powerful in the process.

Prayer


Lord, guide me in adopting the posture of Mary, choosing the good portion in the midst of life's busyness. Help me create intentional moments to sit at Your feet, ready to apply the wisdom You generously offer. Amen.

Reflection


1. How can you practically integrate moments of sitting at Jesus' feet into your daily routine?


2. Consider the areas of your life where you seek wisdom and guidance. How might actively learning from Jesus impact these areas?


3. Reflect on the potential changes in your perspective and actions as you intentionally position yourself at the feet of Jesus each day
