🌿 Devotional #1: The Big Cup and the Grace to Keep Pouring

đź“– Scripture
Galatians 6:9 (NIV) "Let us not become weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up."

đź’­ Thought
Some days, it feels like you’ve given everything you have—and still, the people you poured into are nowhere to be found. You’re left holding an empty cup, wondering if your kindness was wasted. I’ve been there. I’ve felt used, discarded, and invisible.

But then came the wisdom: “You’re the big cup.” That truth shifted everything. The people I was trying to draw strength from were never meant to fill me—they were meant to be filled by me. And that’s okay. It doesn’t mean I’m weak. It means I need to be intentional about where I get refilled.

God is the ultimate source. His grace is the overflow. His Spirit is the well that never runs dry. When I started seeking bigger cups—mentors, scripture, quiet time, rest—I found the strength to keep pouring. Not from burnout, but from abundance.

If you’re reading this, you’re probably a big cup too. You’ve poured into others, cheered them on, and maybe felt forgotten. But you’re not. You’re chosen. You’re called. And you’re being refilled right now.

Let this be your reminder: You don’t have to give up. You just have to plug into the right source. The harvest is coming. Keep pouring—with grace.
