God give gifts to His children. All of us have them. Not one is left out. I used to view my gift as a sin, until I learned how to use it. My gift? I love searching through what most people see as trash to find treasure. It gives me great joy to see beauty in what most people overlook. The bonus comes when I get to do that for others. This week I...
*blessed a friend with a whole heap of thrifted treasures
*served married couples that are in a ton of pain
*prayed for all I know that are hurting or in the midst of challenges
*put others before myself
In a world full of selfishness and consumption, I am experiencing great joy in the giving of myself to others. The irony is that I find I am most fulfilled, even in the midst of pain, when I pour myself into others. To give others joy and hope, using the gifts God gave me, is why I am here.
Happy Weekend friends. May you find deep joy in emptying yourself out. xo
