Empty My Basket

How many times have you walked through the grocery store picking up things you don't need only to get in the check out line and start removing items. In essence we take inventory of what we've picked and decide certain things aren't worth purchasing or we simply don't need them. It's crazy but we use this same method as we walk through life. Putting things in our "life" basket that aren't good for us. Paying more for things than we should. That man/woman you picked because they looked good but their "good" date expired long before they ever met you. That friend who is the life of the party but when the party is over they can't be found. That co-worker who does a great job but is only out for self, never gives you the heads up when their made aware of an opportunity because they don't want you as competition. Even a relative that talks a good game about family support but disappears during a family crisis. We load our baskets up praying we'll get our "money's worth" and that we've selecting the right people. It's not always pretty and not always easy to return what we've purchased after leaving the check out line but we must remember that with God change is possible. When we go to Him with a sincere heart He will fix those things/choices that are not good for us. Our job is to pray about our choices even when we feel like we've made the best choice. Let God be your first choice and ask Him to guide all that follows. TeamEmptyMyBasket. Bblessedloveyou
