A heart that is open to Love overflows with Love

Morning: Psalm 78:1-39; Jeremiah 7:21-34; Romans 4:13-25

Evening: Psalm 78:40-72; John 7:37-52

Sometimes you are so concerned about what you have to offer, so convinced about your gifts, that it is all about your needs. Ironically, your need to be useful renders you unhelpful to others ... you offer unwanted advice, or shallow ‘words of wisdom’ and assurance, or unsolicited hugs and gifts. Instead, a simple trust in God shapes your heart so that what flows from you to others refreshes their souls. When you are open to Love, your heart is shaped by Love and overflows with Love. Then, what you have to offer is no longer any of your concern.
