it's been a while

I want to sit at your feet

drink from the cup in your hand

lay back against you and breathe

feel your heart beat

this love is so deep

it's more than I can stand

I melt in your peace

"As Jesus and his disciples were on their way, he came to a village where a woman named Martha opened her home to him. She had a sister called Mary, who sat at the Lord' feet listening to what he said. But Martha was distracted by all the preparations that had to be made. She came to him and asked, 'Lord, don't you care that my sister has left me to do the work by myself? Tell her to help me!'

'Martha, Martha,' the Lord answered, 'you are worried and upset about many things, but only one thing is needed. Mary has chosen what is better, and it will not be taken away from her.'"

- Luke 10:38-42

I often find myself being like Martha. There are always things to be done, but today was a day to be like Mary.
