Ecclesiological Etchings

Scripture: Proverbs 13:4
The lazy have strong desires but receive nothing; the appetite of the diligent is satisfied.

Thought for the Day: As I sat at my desk yesterday, I reached for my cup of  tea and lifted it to my lips – not once or twice or even three times, but four times – these all occurred after the cup had been emptied. Each time I thought to myself, I need to get up and make myself another cup. Each time, I went back to what I was doing instead of getting more tea. It may not have been procrastination, but it felt a little like a window through which I glimpsed many aspects of my life. Though another cup of tea was not some high priority, it clearly was something my body (or mind) was craving. Not that all cravings should receive our full and immediate attention, but too often we lift the empty cup of faith numerous times and think to ourselves, I should do something about it. We think it, but we do not do what is necessary to fill our cup.

Prayer: Fill my cup, Lord! This is my request, yet I pray for the spiritual energy to get up and do what is necessary to see my cup filled. Amen.
