If your cup is low

Have you heard the saying about your cup being full or empty? Its full when you feel loved and encouraged and then if you are not quite full, its hard to give of yourself at times because you think you don't have anything else to give....no more energy and emotionally drained.

The other day I came home from a long, long day from work to find myself surrounded with encouragement, with God filling my cup when it was low.  It was such a wonderful, renewing feeling.

I had received a note from someone that I had sent a note of encouragement to about a year ago.  It was such a sweet and thoughtful note.

I also had received something that I had ordered two days earlier than expected and that was a great surprise.  It something from a coming that is just a simple powdered drink that will help naturally with losing some weight, feeling good and helping with my Fibro.  I did a two week trial and was excited with the results.

Then there was a box that was sent to me that I didn't expect at all.  It was from a friend with Thirty One.  It was a box full of goodies and a nice card inside.  I loved the fact that it was totally unexpected and it spoke of thankfulness, encouragement, fun and support.  She was telling me how much I had "rocked" (we are the Encouraging Rockstars) the summer with sales, and parties.  The box was like a little reward for it all.  Instead of texting her a simple thank you, I picked up my  phone and called.  She was happy I called.

All these little examples are simply to say that God is there and he knows.  God knows how to use things and people in ours to express his timing and love for us by caring for us through the little things that we can find in this life.  My cup was low but now its full again.

Thank you God for always looking out for me.  Thank you for keeping me full when I feel so drained and tired, now I can turn around give back with you helping me.  Thank you.
