What size is your bucket?
Three men came to a well to get water.
One man brought a pint jar.
One man brought a five-gallon bucket.
One man brought a five-gallon bucket but it was filled with trash he had picked up on the way.
Which man got the greatest benefit from the well?
“Jesus stood and shouted to the crowds, “Anyone who is thirsty may come to me! Anyone who believes in me may come and drink! For the Scriptures declare, ‘Rivers of living water will flow from his heart.’”
John 7:37-38 NLT
I sometimes wonder why I don’t have more to share. Maybe my expectations are too low and I don’t bring a big enough bucket. Maybe I bring a big one but it is already full of myself? Trash? rubbish?
