Ephesians 2:30 “For we are God’s workmanship, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do.”
Have you ever felt lonesome? Sometimes I do even though I know Jesus is with me always. My mother used to say, “Busy people are happy people”. Sometimes when I am lonesome, I am tempted to fill the emptiness with a television show, movie, pod cast or music. I just try to fill my mind in order to fill my heart. At the end of it, I may have filled the space but I didn’t solve the emptiness. I have found that when I intentionally invest in others, even when I feel empty, it fills me up. When I invest in someone they too invest me. This can be as simple as calling an old friend to catch up. The trick is to be a light in others lives not an energy suck. I am a light, when I let the love of Jesus flow through me. When I intentionally see the goodness of God and spread that. Anyone can commiserate and effectively bring others down. We are God’s workmanship. Let’s bring each other up today! Speak life, even if we feel empty. It’s amazing how God can take our empty and fill it to the full as we do the good works He has prepared for us to do!!
