WITH THE RIGHT ATTITUDE

John 15:4-5 Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit by itself, unless it abides in the vine, neither can you, unless you abide in me. I am the vine; you are the branches. Whoever abides in me and I in him, he it is that bears much fruit, for apart from me you can do nothing.

Mary's attitude marked her as a woman mighty in spirit, and you too can have this trait, when you commit yourself to Christ. Ask Him to make you aware of anything that keeps you from sitting at His feet, in heart devotion. Pray for the Holy Spirit, to give you a deep love for God's Word. This is what Mary cherished the Word of God spoken to her. And it is our greatest source of comfort and hope.

Father, we confess that our attitude sometimes needs an adjustment. So we humbly come before You, asking You, to search our hearts and minds and remove all that is not of You. Thank You, Lord, for all You do, please give us a heart of appreciation. Thank You, Lord, for Your sacrifice, that restored us to the Father; and set us free from the bondage of our sins. Thank You, for the suffering, You endured for our sake, please give us that same strength, to endure suffering for Your sake. Father, let us be silent, so we can hear, slow to speak and slow to anger; because anger does not produce the righteousness of our Father. Lord, give us eyes that see the obstacles, that keeps us from sitting at Your feet and the wisdom and knowledge of how to remove them. So, we can cherished the Word of God spoken to us, with the right attitude. So, the Word will be, our greatest source of comfort and hope. In Jesus name Amen
