Pouring Into Others When You Feel Emptyનમૂનો

You Will Be Refreshed

Isaiah 58:10-11 is one of my favorite verses when it comes to serving others, because it’s like a tall glass of cold ice water on a hot day. It’s refreshing...encouraging...hopeful.

This passage is your final boost in this reading plan. It describes the power of serving others--in your own life. Sometimes it’s in your darkness and in your tiredness that you are called to pour into others more than ever before. It’s an offering that goes beyond your humanness and displays the infinite power of God.

If you can pour yourself out for others and satisfy the desires of those in need, even as you find yourself in the desert, God will make you strong and satisfy your own desires. In fact, He promises to make you like a spring whose waters never fail.

If you can pour into others even as you feel empty, God will start a miraculous work in you. He will fill you with an everlasting abundance of water to keep you going. You will always have something to give, no matter what form or size it comes in.

I pray this reading plan encourages you to find ways to pour out for others when you feel empty. It won’t always be easy, but it will always have eternal value. Take care of yourself but find small ways to serve and love others when you feel depleted. Know it’s important to your identity as a believer and it’s something God cares deeply about. So much so that he will honor you and take care of you for loving those He loves as well.

Understand these biblical principles and find practical ways to serve others, and you’ll find the abundance to pour out for others!
