At Jesus Knee

Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness: for they shall be filled. ~ Matthew 5:6

During Christ’s earthly ministry, multitudes would gather to sit at Jesus’ feet to learn of him, to be healed, to be clean, and to know that God personally knows and loves them. With their faith and innocence,children are unrestrained in their ability to “sit” at Jesus’ knee and understand these eternal truths. I see in this example of a little girl praying, the qualities that we need as we approach the Lord for whatever reason. As we “become as little children” in our sincerest of prayers and desires, we will be able to better see His hand outstretched to us in love. ~ Jay Bryant Ward
