“But one thing is needful.” Luke 10:42 KJV

In your busy life, remember that only one thing is needful: to sit at the feet of Jesus and listen to His voice. If we listen to God, we cannot go wrong.

When you pray, remember ‘one thing is needful’ and let everything else fade away for those moments when you are alone with Him.

I have a busy week ahead. Today, Monday, I have been asked to take a naming service for one of our lovely Nigerian families. The baby has 21 names, several of which I cannot pronounce! But what is essential is to be in Jesus’ presence and go forth empowered for His service.

On Tuesday, we are attending a funeral in memory of a young man who tragically lost his life. There will be many people we don’t know, and many will be heartbroken. But what is vital is to remember to sit at the feet of Jesus. Only He can bring peace that passes all understanding.

We will all have different things that need to be done this week. Whatever you do and however you do them, do it with Jesus.

Come, sit at His feet for a little while before you begin your day, and choose to find the ‘good part’, the spiritual blessing. This won’t be taken away from you.

“But one thing is needful: and Mary hath chosen that good part, which shall not be taken away from her.” Luke 10:42 KJV

Whatever you face, be like Mary and you will find: “My presence shall go with thee, and I will give thee rest.” Exodus 33:14 KJV
