Sitting at His Feet

 
Reclining there among His friends
The master waits and rests…
In the cool of the day, when quietness surrounds them,
They hear someone say…
In a low and humble voice as she stands with an alabaster box
She kneels, breaks the seal, and instantly reveals,
The fragrance Of costly perfume…
This is my gift to you my Lord…it is all I have…but there is more,
My heart is spent on thee.
Fragrance fills the room…
Tears combined with sweet oil, poured upon His head
As others watch from their seat…
A heart with love and purity seen, in one moment, their eyes meet…
No words now spoken, but emotions of spirit and life restored, for there is no more defeat…
Gentle tear drops fall; Jesus also weeps…
Silence while she sits there…until all is complete…
Her soul is free, with sweet release, sitting at Jesus feet.

Matthew 26:7 Tree of Life Version (TLV) a woman came up to Him with an alabaster jar of very expensive oil. And she poured it on His head as He was reclining at the table.

I love the Lord Jesus Christ and am passionate about writing. I hope you enjoy the blog and come to visit often. Then the Lord answered me and said: “Write the vision And make it plain on tablets, That he may run who reads it. For the vision is yet for an appointed time; But at the end it will speak, and it will not lie. Though it tarries, wait for it; Because it will surely come, It will not tarry. “Behold the proud, His soul is not upright in him; But the just shall live by his faith. Habakkuk 2: 2-4
