Broken Vessels Leak

Broken Vessels Leak

Ever wonder why things happen to you the way they do? Remember that age old question, "Why ME God!?” Well I have a better question, why not you? You see everything God does or allows in our lives is an effort to increase our capacity to live for WITH, FOR, and IN Him. 

When we live with Him, we are surrounded with Him like oxygen in the atmosphere. When we live FOR Him, we are empowered to represent or RE-PRESENT, make his presence known again through us. And finally, when we are in Him we are immersed in His Presence and filled like a vessel under a faucet!

Here is the beauty of that progression, the things that happen to us in life will often break, crack, and sometimes even crush us. When they do, when life cracks, breaks and crushes us, We LEAK!

WE BEGIN TO LEAK WHATEVER WE ARE FULL OF. 

THERE ON THE SURFACE OF OUR BROKEN LIVES, WE HAVE THE POWER TO SPILL OUT THE PRESENCE OF GOD OVER ALL WE TOUCH AND DO!

So broken vessel, I have a question for you...

What are you filled with?...

Are you full of hurt? If you are, remember hurting people -- hurt people. They spill hurt over the surface of everything they touch. 

Are you filled with disappointment, or doubt, or fear?

Keep in mind that whatever you are full of will spill out onto the lives of others. And like TOXIC chemicals on the soil, we can bring harm to the ones we love and touch. 

Here is the great news... you can choose what you fill your heart with... 

Let’s explore that question, “What are you filled with?” on the next episode of Better Life With Stella!
