At the Feet of Jesus

 � �Martha, you are so upset. . . . There is really only one thing worth
being concerned about.  Mary has discovered it. . . . � �
Luke 10:41�42

I once read about a life-sized granite sculpture of Jesus by a Danish
artist named Thors Walden.  Walden sculpted the body of Christ in such a
way that you can�t see His face from a standing position.  Next to the
statute, however, is a sign that reads, �If you want to see the face of
Jesus, you must sit at His feet.�  Sure enough, if you get down at the
foot of the statue, you can look up and clearly see the face of Jesus.

There is a great spiritual truth here.  If you want to see the face of
Jesus, you must sit at His feet.  Mary of Bethany illustrated this when
the Lord visited Mary and her sister, Martha.  While Martha was in the
kitchen busily preparing a meal for Jesus, Mary wisely recognized that
this was a unique opportunity.  Instead of helping her sister in the
kitchen, she sat at Jesus� feet to drink in His every word.  Meanwhile,
Martha grew increasingly frustrated, because there was so much work to
accomplish.  She finally stormed out and said, �Lord, doesn�t it seem
unfair. . . . Tell her to come and help me . . .� (Luke 10:40).  Jesus
simply replied, �Martha, you are so upset. . . . There is really only
one thing worth being concerned about.  Mary has discovered it . . . �
(verses 41�42).

The moral of the story is that we need to recognize there is a time to
work and there is a time to worship.  There is a time to be active for
the Lord and there is a time to sit at His feet.  Have you become so
enamored with the tasks of daily life that you have forgotten to make
time to sit at Jesus� feet?  Take the time, because if you want to see
the face of Jesus, then you must sit at His feet.
