Proverbs 11:25
Don’t you just love it when you have only a bit of time, & you pick up a devotional, thinking, “Finally!!!! A bit of time to myself! Now, I can spend a tiny little bit of time in the Word,”
& what you read stops you up short:
The generous soul will be made rich,
And he who waters will also be watered himself.
This is so backwards of what we are taught today.
We are taught that by spending time to ourselves, we will feel refreshed.
Not according to this verse.
It seems to be saying to me that when I spend time on others, with my heart in the right place……I’ll be refreshed.
I have already had the Lord working on me in this area,
but this verse for today was no mistake, I don’t think.
What do you think, bloggging friends?

Can you think of other verses that go along w/ that idea?

What an interesting bunch of smileys in the Smiley Central ad this time around. {snicker}
Yeah, isn't it though!?!?!
Hi Kim,
What a great verse from Proverbs. To be outward, not inward looking and putting off our selfishness. It's the heart attitude that God wants for us so we can reach out to others and show them His love.
Thanks for sharing that verse.
Happy Easter to all of your family and especially with one gorgeous little man (aka Natty!!) How wonderful that he is home with you for Easter.
God Bless,
Anna
Thank-you, Anna!
Happy Easter to you & yours, too!
