A season at HIS feet

So lately I have learned that this season of my life is a season in which I am supposed to sit at HIS feet. This is something that I have struggled in learning. It's hard for me to just be still. I keep thinking that I have to be doing something. I have to be doing something that is advancing His Kingdom. Don't get me wrong we are supposed to be advancing His kingdom daily by living by His example but there are times when He just wants to take us in and be with us. He wants us to forget about what's happening in the world and focus on Him so that we can come to know Him more and grow deeper in the knowledge of His love for us. He wants to remind us that we are His beloved. That he is listening. He knows what's going on in our lives. He sees our struggles and our weaknesses. That he hasn't left us. That he is real and that he is completely in love with us and every one of our imperfections.
I think that sometimes we walk around with the spirit of condemnation and guilt hanging over heads. It's like when your driving and you see a police car and you tense up and make sure that you drive perfectly and you make sure you're not doing anything wrong, scared that you may be doing something wrong. Sometimes I think that's how we are with God. We want to try and live our lives perfectly and when we don't we feel guilty and condemn ourselves telling ourselves what we could of done better. Jesus came and saved us because God knew that we couldn't live a perfect life. We were never meant to be perfect. God loves us just for who we are no matter what we've done or what we will do He will still love us because that's just who He is. He's not mad at you don't let the enemy or anyone else convince you otherwise.
Right now He wants me at His feet because he wants to talk to me and hang out. He wants to teach me new things and He wants to heal my heart of things that have hindered me from being who He wants me to be. He wants to remind me of my identity. That I am a daughter of the most High King! Maybe that's where you are right now. Maybe He's not taking you to the next place you want to go because first He wants you to go and be at His feet or maybe you've already been to that place and He wants you to go out into the world and use what He has taught you to advance His Kingdom! Whether you're in a season of action or in a season of just sitting at His feet they are both great places to be because you are being used, loved and cherished by the King of Heaven and Earth!
May you be blessed and know that He loves you! That He is in love with YOU!
