说明

说：

你们都熟悉我手里拿着的这个东西。这是一个普通的日常碗。你可能会想，我怎么能从一个普通的日常碗中学到关于神的事呢？信不信由你，碗和人确实有一些相似之处。

碗里能倒出的东西是先前放进去的东西。如果我把糖果放进碗里，我就能从碗里拿出糖果。如果我把酸泡菜倒进碗里，我就能从碗里拿出酸泡菜。

我们的思想就像这个碗的例子，我们放进大脑的东西就是我们后来使用的东西。我们放进大脑的内容将塑造我们的行为方式和与他人互动的方式。明智的人会花时间将神的原则放进他们的大脑，并避免将大脑填满垃圾。

（一只手拿一个精美的瓷碗，另一只手拿一个普通的日常碗。）

我们从碗中还可以学到另一个功课：一些碗，比如这个瓷碗，只在特殊场合使用。我另一只手里是一个几乎每天都用的普通碗。有些人，像瓷碗一样，只在特殊场合，如复活节或圣诞节，才会想到神。持这种心态的人错过了神给他们的许多祝福。经常经历神的人就像几乎每天都用的普通碗一样。神充满我们，我们将自己的生活倾注在让祂喜悦的事情上。成为全能的神手中的器皿是一件奇妙的事。

我们都有选择，选择决定我们将把什么放进我们的大脑，这直接影响着我们是谁，还有选择决定我们与神互动的频率。不要让你的生活像一个只用一两次的碗一样放在架子上积满灰尘。敞开你的心扉，接受神给你的祝福，每天都经历祂！

POUR ME OUT

A life used by God, is a life worth living.

TOPICS:

Choices, Holiness, Honor God, Knowing God

MATERIALS:

Common every-day bowlFine china bowl

DURATION:

Approximately 5 minutes

WHAT YOU WILL SAY:

All of you are familiar with the item that I am holding. This is a common every day bowl. You may be thinking to yourself, how can I learn anything about God from a common every day bowl? Believe it or not, bowls and people do have some similarities.

The only thing that you can pour out of a bowl is what was first placed into it. If I pour candy into a bowl, I will be able to take candy out of the bowl. If I pour sour pickles into a bowl, I will be able to take sour pickles out of the bowl.

Our minds are much like the example of the bowl above, what we put into our minds is what we later use. The contents of what we place in our mind will shape the way we behave and the way we interact with others. Wise people will spend time putting Godly principles into their minds and avoid filling their minds with garbage.

(Hold a fine china bowl in one hand and a common every day bowl in your other hand.)

Another lesson that we can learn from bowls is this: some bowls, like this china bowl, are only used on special occasions. In my other hand is a common bowl which is used almost every day. Some people, like the china bowl, only think about God on special occasions such as Easter or Christmas. People with this mind set miss out on the many blessings that God has for them. People that experience God on a regular basis are like the common bowl that gets used almost every day. God fills us up and we pour our lives out doing things that please Him. It is a wondrous thing to be a vessel in the hands of a mighty God.”

We all have choices, the choice to decide what we will put into our minds, which directly effects who we are and a choice to decide how often we interact with God. Don’t let your life sit on a shelf collecting dust, like a bowl that is used only once or twice a year. Open your heart to the blessings God has for you and experience Him on a daily basis!
