I’ve heard over and over while on the race to “sit at the Fathers feet” or to just give it up to God. But as much as I had heard that these past few months, I hadn’t taken time to actually dig into what that could look like for me and my relationship with the Lord. In Asia I sat a lot with what that could look like for me, and here’s what the Lord has revealed to me about it!!
When I think of sitting at the Father’s feet, I’m sitting with my legs crossed. I’m sitting like a child. I’m sitting with my eyes open to see and ears open to hear. I’m not anxious or bored; I’m eager to learn. I’m ready to hear and ready to share. I feel warmth and I know I am safe. I know that I can lay it all out; I can give it all up. There’s no judgement, pity, or anger from the Father. I always will receive the same thing- love. Love unlike anything I’ll ever receive on the Earth. Love that no human can give. I receive a selfish love from the Father. He knows it all; every flaw and intimate detail, yet he still loves me. I lay everything down at the Fathers feet. I lay down my triumphs and losses. I know his deep love for me, so why would I keep it to myself? When I lay it down at his feet, when I fully depend and trust in Him, I gain so much. I get the perfect answer, one full with heavenly wisdom and no doubt. My father in Heaven truly cares about me and loves me! Me! Not only do I want to lay it down at his feet, but he wants me too as-well. He desires to know it all. All I need to do is invite him in and allow him to see. He will always receive my invitation!!
Matthew 7 : 7-8 “Ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened for you. For everyone who asks receives, and the one who seeks finds, and to the one who knocks it will be opened.”
