Overflow...

I read a great poem this morning:

God fills
our cup full
and running over,
not so
we can boast
or measure,
but so
we can spill over
into the lives of
others. S. Dyer (devozine)

The imagery struck me. Have your ever filled a bucket full of water? Full to overflowing? The water rushes over the sides not in precise measured amounts and you cannot control where it goes. It splashes wherever it wants. If we allow God to fill our cup to overflowing, think of the lives we will touch, lives beyond our control. How many others can we reach and refresh with God's life giving love?

Amanda- Just wanted to let you know that we appreciate everything that you do with and for the youth. If it wasn't for you and the Love for the youth Don and I would not still be there. It make it very interesting and fun. I wish that more parents would come and see what you do with them.

Keep up the great work.

Don and Janet
