In emptying ourselves, we make room to be filled again.
This mindset kept manifesting itself through the speakers and table conversations I had the opportunity to be a part of today during a training for the Ministry of Care program I recently joined.
We delved so quickly into very personal and deep topics, but it did not feel strange or uncomfortable - I felt like I could share straight from my heart with these complete strangers. (And, obviously, we weren't complete strangers at the end of the day.)
It was a grace-filled day - and one that will be repeated (but with different topics) next weekend. I felt so blessed to be surrounded by so many others who are simply looking for a way to serve and/or give back because of what has been given to them. What a beautiful ministry!
Empty me, O Lord. And fill me with your grace. Amen.
