Open the Floodgates

I remember often thinking how can any one person be so blessed with such a multitude of talents, gifts and abilities ! Did the Lord somehow miss someone on blessing day and the extra spilled over on my aunt Janet? Well, of course not!!! God never makes mistakes and He never runs out...

We never have to worry that if He blesses our neighbor that He won't have enough for us!! He is a God of abundant love, mercy, grace and blessings.. Just as the Lord often does - He blew me away when I finally came to realize that all this talent in one person most likely was not all poured out at once...

As the Bible says in Matthew 25, Well done, thou good and FAITHFUL servant: thou hast been FAITHFUL over a few things, I will make thee ruler over many things:" Wow! so when a follower of Christ is faithful in the little things, the small gifts, the seemingly insignificant opportunities -- He will enlarge our abilities, He will open up new funnels of talent.. Soooo, that's Janet's secret .........

Let us be challenged to open up the floodgates of His wonderful love - Cheryl
