Sit thou at my right hand... (Psalm CX)

I like that - "sit". Sitting is downright easy, if I do say so myself, and it is one of the things we see done in the Scriptures. For example, consider Mary. Whereas Martha thought Mary negligent for sitting, Jesus actually said she had chosen the better part, which would not be taken from her. It is by no means always time to be sitting, but there is a time and place for it. As we read in Isaiah 30 (if I remember correctly), "Their strength is to sit still." And, really, think about it! What are the precious moments we can have with a beloved child. Is it not when they sit with us? Let us remember that the Lord Jesus Christ desires the same from us, and - go ahead - sit down!
