Refreshed

Whoever brings blessing will be enriched, and one who waters will himself be watered.
Proverbs 11:25, ESV

The mountains are filled with beautiful streams. I think I could sit for many hours beside a cool mountain stream to watch the water spill over the rocks and listen to the sound of the water. Often when I face a hard time I picture myself by a mountain stream doing just that. This proverb tells me another way to be refreshed - to refresh others. When I take the time to actually see the needs of others and do even the smallest thing to show that I notice their difficult time it refocuses my vision away from myself and I am refreshed.

Prayer
Loving Father
Thank you for cool mountain streams and for all the people who have taken the time to water my life. Open my eyes to those around me who could use a drink and make me a  little blessing to them this day.
Amen
