Intentional Sitting

Sometimes I wonder how I got here. There's those moments of elation when I'm certain all the pain is worth every ounce of victory, and then there's all the other time. During the 'all the other time' I'm blessed to learn from some of God's favorites. I'm convinced they're His favorites. When I get to sit by them, preferably at their feet, I feel like the most blessed human in the world. Even though it mustn't come close, I liken it to how it must have felt to sit at Jesus' feet and learn from HIm. You see, these beloveds I'm surrounded by are INCREDIBLE. Though life's worst hardships are commonplace in their lives, and though their options are lacking, thanksgiving and praise pours out of their hearts to The King. I've always said I want to surround myself with people who I want to be like.  Well, I think I've done a good job at that, and I wish I could take credit...The King has seen fit to bless me so, and I'm so very grateful.  I'd love to hear who those people are in your lives that make you feel like you're sitting at His Feet.
