My Basket

Imagine a beautiful basket full of fresh delicious fruit. Every kind you can think of...apples, oranges, grapes, pineapple, kiwi, strawberries and bananas. The basket is set out for people to enjoy as they pass by. No one can refuse the beautiful fruit. Some stop and taste as they pass. Some are greedy and grab hand fulls of the fruit. Then there are some who keep coming back for more and more and more. The basket loves sharing her fruit and enjoys seeing the people smile as they taste her sweet fruit. Before long the fruit is gone and the basket is empty. Sometimes I feel like that basket. I give and give and give until I'm empty. I love giving and I love sharing with my family, friends, church and even strangers. But who will refill my basket? Who will give me fruit? As women we often give all we have until there is nothing left. I'm so greatful that my Heavenly Father will restore me. All I have to do is call on Him. Don't wait until you are empty...get restored today. We should teach our children and mates to replenish our baskets. Don't be afraid to say NO...I can't help you. We have to take care of ourselves too. Ladies, be encouraged and I hope this put fruit in your beautiful basket.
