Thirsty hearts are those whose longings have been awakened
by the touch of God within them

Remember, every time you say yes to something outside yr normal job description,
you’re saying no to someone you love.
Serving Jesus is obviously a wonderful thing to do,unless it takes us away from Jesus.
Then I consider sitting at His feet a better choice.I learned years ago to say no to the great majority of things I’m asked to do,
so I’m available to say yes to those few God wants me to do.

“Has a nation ever changed its gods? (Yet they are are not gods at all.) But my people have exchanged their Glory for worthless idols. Be appalled at this, O heavens, and shudder with great horror,” declares the Lord. “My people have committed two sins: They have forsaken me, the spring of living water, and have dug their own cisterns, broken cisterns that cannot hold water.”
Jeremiah 2:11-13
Jeremiah 2:11-13
For true love is inexhaustible;
the more you give, the more you have.
And if you go to draw at the true fountainhead,
the more water you will draw,
the more abundant is its flow.

As I read this, especially the 2nd paragraph, I begin to ponder if I've been saying too many "yes" that might have drained me at some point in time, not because I didn't feel happy after doing the things I said yes to, but because I had to handle quite a number of negative responses from people closer to me.
I'm thankful to have read this, and I hope I can remember this whenever I'm asked to do something more than what I have to do.
Thank you Rudy David! =)
