Pay attention to what you have on the inside

Pay attention to what you have on the inside

I started writing about one thing, but kept coming back to this

I’ve written about it before and it is flowing again…a little deeper

Whatever we have on the inside…that’s what we give each other

It’s kind of hard to give someone something we don’t have

We can try, but my observation is…it doesn’t last…it doesn’t come from a genuine place

We are living in a time where the spirit of anger seems to be roaming the land

It’s one thing to feel the undercurrent…but to see the overflow…is quite another

I believe that what is really on the inside of us can be a beautiful thing…

Or something that’s masked…squashed down…or ignored

But the day comes when it starts seeping out…eventually followed by the flow

The flow can be clear, calm, refreshing and a joy to dwell in…

Or it can be toxic, murky and muddy…you can’t see through it…

So you can’t be sure what’s in it or it’s affect on your system

Pay attention to what you have on the inside

Be honest with yourself about it…work on it, if you need to…

Because that’s what you gift to anyone who crosses your path

And what you’ve gifted to them…may be what they pass on to another

I have faith and am hopeful, that what’s murky…can become clear

And that toxins can be flushed out of our system with clear Living Water

When we have the Living Water flowing on the inside…that’s what we gift to others

I pray that that…becomes the overflow roaming the land…

With It, comes genuine Love…Joy…and Peace

That works for our good and that of anyone whose lives we touch

Pay attention to what you have on the inside…

Because that’s what we give to each other
