Let It Overflow: Won’t You Be My Neighbor?

July 19, 2012 by Guest Author 5 Comments

Recently my husband made a comment to me that inspired this challenge. I was chatting away with “strangers” on an online home school group. My husband walked by and said, “I don’t understand how you can spend so much time talking to people you don’t know on the internet, when we don’t even know all of the people that live on our street.”

Ouch.

But he’s right. Our lives have become so filled with screens and busyness that we forget there are real people out there. So over the next two weeks your challenge is to meet someone. Take a walk down your street and knock on a door. Strike up a conversation with someone at the doctor’s office or the grocery store. Talk to another mom at the park. Who knows you might just make a new friend?

Even better, make it a habit to meet one new person each week for the rest of the year. Step out of that comfort zone and win some souls!

Being neighborly,

Chelli

Welcome to Come Fill Your Cup!

CFYC About Image Welcome! We are so glad you stopped by. Come Fill Your Cup is a group of Christian ladies dedicated to equipping women for study and service. We know you are busy and that life’s hectic pace pulls you in so many directions, but you can’t truly be the woman God desires unless you take time to fill your own cup…not with spa days (though we love a good spa!) or the latest novel…but with God’s Holy Word. We want to help you with that! Our goal is to reach you in the midst of your busy day and give you encouragement, education, and fellowship as you strive to live the life God has laid before you. Our prayer is that we can help fill your cup so that you, in turn, can overflow to all those around you. So, as we like to say…come fill your cup, and let it overflow!
