Full

I read an excellent poem printed in Devozine:

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.



The imagery struck me...have you ever filled a bucket full to overflowing? The water rushes over the sides...not in precise measured amounts. 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?
