Feast

Fortunately for me,
I just completed a set of Book of Mormon
Scripture Mastery visuals and cards
for my SPIRITUALLY STRONG SEMINARY teacher SISTER.
One of them just so happens to be the focus for today...
Picture Collage using Images from the Internet
One nurtures the body with nutritious food.
What about our spiritual self?
Is it starving?
Is it being fed wholesome words, thoughts, and deeds?
Is it being filled with the things of this world?
or 
Is it entirely being neglected period?

How long has it been since I have immersed myself in the Scriptures?
Too long.
Again, MARY and MARTHA came to the foreground of my thoughts...
two sisters that receive a visit from the Savior
choose differently
one to SERVE the Master
one at His feet to obSERVE the Master.

I have often thought of myself as a "Mary" type...
learning at the feet of Jesus. 
I love my Savior and would not dream of missing out on such an event
especially to be in the kitchen doing the very things
I am not so very good at...
(preparing a feast)

YET
today's focus has made me realize
that I may not be in the kitchen...
but I am everywhere else.
The Savior may not be at my table physically,
but He is in word.
If I really believe the Scriptures are the word of God
and I do...
and if I really believe myself to be a "Mary" type;
why am I encumbered about with my "to do list"...
 forsaking the opportunity to learn of the Master,
my guest through
FEASTING onHIS words?
The Scriptures contain HIS solutions
to MY situations.

Today is the day to begin anew...
open the scriptures and learn of my Savior.
FEAST upon HIS WORD(S)
