a full cup

this month my pastor has been talking on a series called "The Door: A Journey to Reclaim Your Destiny". its been a really good sermon series. i encourage you to give it a listen here if you have time. anyway, his sermon yesterday dealt with your destiny at work. he refrenced another speaker he had heard talk about having a full cup which can make all the difference in how you treat your work.

the simple point is this=make a list of 5 things that you enjoy doing when you are not working. then next to that list the last time you had participated in those things. chances are most people will have difficulty remembering the last time they did stuff they enjoyed outside of work. but for those who do take the time to enjoy life, their cup is full. and not only full of what, but of Who. and once your cup is full it will run over, even into your job, making that place a little easier to be.

makes sense,doesnt it?! i dont know about you, but it hit me hard. gave me lots of things to think about. my cup definatly is not full....i need to make more of an effort to fill it.
