Have a Good Day

One of the last things I say to Mr. Bill each morning as he leaves the house is, “have a good day.”  What really makes for a good day?  Scripture says, “He that watereth shall be watered also himself.”  This is not only the secret to a good day but an eternally prosperous day.  The Godly principle is only as we’re poured out for Christ unto others are we genuinely enriched. “To get, we must give … to accumulate, we must scatter … to make ourselves happy, we must make others happy … in order to become spiritually vigorous, we must seek the spiritual good of others … in watering others, we are ourselves watered.” (Spurgeon).  How absolutely dry and stagnant our lives are when we live unto ourselves –  when we have forsaken “the Fountain of Living Waters” and carved for ourselves “broken cisterns that can hold no water.” (Jeremiah 2:13).  Do you want to have a good day?  Pray then for grace to lay your pipe closest to The Fountain and allow Him to water others through you.  Yes, then, have a good day!
