The feet of Jesus

Something a bit different today .... let's start with a worship song ....

Find me at the feet of Jesus - Christy Nockels

What a beautiful way to start the day, at the feet of Jesus, not running around trying to get a head start on the day. 

But rather, choosing to lay aside all our plans for the day and 
sit with Jesus. Worshiping Him. Listening to what He has to say. Choosing to go and be with Him. He will always meet us.

And as they went, behold, Jesus met them, and said, Hail (greetings)! And they went up to Him and clasped His feet and worshipped Him. Matthew 28:9 AMP

In the scripture we read about people who went to the feet of Jesus for different reasons.

The man with the unclean spirits, after Jesus had commanded them to depart. He just wanted to be close to Jesus, his Saviour.

And [people] went out to see what had occurred, and they came to Jesus and found the man from who the demons had gone out, sitting at the feet of Jesus, clothed and in his right (sound) mind; and they were seized with alarm and fear. Luke 8:35 AMP
 
Jairus, desperate for Jesus to come to his house and heal his daughter, ... knowing that Jesus had the power and authority to heal.

And there came a man named Jairus, who had [for a long time] been a director of the synagogue; and falling at the feet of Jesus, he begged Him to come to his house, Luke 8:41

The Leper who was healed and returned to thank Jesus, ... so grateful for all Jesus had done for him.

Then one of them, upon seeing that he was cured, turned back, recognizing and thanking and praising God with a loud voice; And he fell prostrate at  Jesus' feet, thanking Him [over and over]. And he was a Samaritan. Luke 17:15-16 AMP

Mary, in grief, not afraid to express her thoughts, coming to Jesus for comfort ....

When Mary came to the place where Jesus was and saw Him, she dropped down at His feet, saying to Him, Lord, if You had been here, my brother would not have died. John 11:32 AMP

Mary, full of love for Jesus and all He had done, anointed the feet of Jesus ...

So they made Him a supper; and Martha served, but Lazarus was one of those at the table with Him. Mary took a pound of ointment of pure liquid nard [a rare perfume] that was very expensive, and she poured it on Jesus' feet and wiped them with her hair. And the whole house was filled with the fragrance of the perfume. John 12:2-3 AMP


Today, we have access to come and sit at the feet of Jesus. There are no barriers except the ones we erect. Whatever we feel - gratitude, desperation, grief or love, we are welcome at the feet of Jesus. Let's choose to go there today.
