Sitting at Jesus' feet symbolizes a desire to learn and be close to Him, as shown by Mary in Luke 10:38-42.

In Luke 10:38-42, we find the story of Mary and Martha. Mary chose to sit at Jesus' feet to hear His teachings, demonstrating her deep desire for spiritual nourishment and relationship with Christ. This position at Jesus' feet represents humility, dependence, and the prioritization of communion with Him over worldly distractions. Mary exemplifies the believer's need to recognize Christ's supremacy in their lives and to seek His wisdom above all else.
