Blessed To Be A Blessing.

Many are the afflictions of the righteous, but the Lord delivers him out of them all. Psalm 34:19. We fall down and God picks us up. We are blessed to be a blessing and to be a funnel with the blessings he has blessed us with. Our oil will not run dry. Reach out to those who have fallen and lift them up with the abundance God has given you. His word says we will always have the poor with us and it is our privilege, out of a grateful heart, to help those that are weaker around us. All that we have and all that we are is his. Help us to show his love in all we think, say and do. Deuteronomy 15:10

On the radio one day I heard a saying that is fitting. "Whatever is in the well will come up in the pot". What we are filled up with, will surface in the pot for good or bad. Scripture says, out of the heart the mouth speaks.

Matthew 12:34 "You brood of vipers, how can you who are evil say anything good? For out of the overflow of the heart the mouth speaks".

Luke 6:45"The good man brings good things out of the good stored up in his heart, and the evil man brings evil things out of the evil stored up in his heart. For out of the overflow of his heart his mouth speaks.

Help us to be filled with God's spirit and love, allowing him to fill our pots to overflowing, that we might be a blessing to those around us.
