I was sitting here thinking about an old story I just love. Do you remember the story about Button Soup? A man comes to a town famished and asks if there is food to eat. Everyone basically says no. They state that they all are hungry and have nothing to share. He says that is ok. He says he has all he needs. He has a button but he does need a big soup pot, water and wood. The townspeople are able to get him those items and they just stand back. He drops the button into the pot and talks about how wonderful it is going to be. As the story unfolds, a wonderful pot of soup has emerged. What happened? They got excited about the wonderful soup.  As the anticipation started to build, they all were wanting to be a part of it. Everyone had something to give. Some gave vegetables they found. Some found spices. Some found some meat. Everyone made the difference. They did so without even realizing how they had given of themselves. Luke 6:38 Give, and it will be given to you. A good measure, pressed down, shaken together and running over, will be poured into your lap. For with the measure you use, it will be measured to you. When we give, blessings just start pouring out. That’s how love is. When it is shared, the ones you share it with are filled. You are filled and it just keeps spilling over. Other people are touched. God is like that. He just loves to love. When you meet Him and others at the table, you have so much fun. Laughter, joy, stories, hearts are full and it is all around the table -together with no other distractions except just Him, you and anyone else that came along. The Table always has plenty of room. There is always plenty of mashed potatoes. My question to you is this. Who are you going to share some mashed potatoes with? I wonder if mashed potatoes go with button soup??? 🍲🍚
