We had the privilege of having a friend of ours for dinner last night. Jennifer always brings lots of fun and laughter, and this visit was no different. After supper, we gathered around the table for a rousing time of playing with… empty cups???
We enjoyed this game particularly because it included all ages, encouraged attentiveness between players, and required teamwork to run smoothly. Thank you, Jennifer, for “filling our cups” with your joy and love once again!
😀 Too much fun going on in the Neely headquarters! What can you all do with a full cup?
What an AWESOME Biblical lesson on the usefulness of an empty cup!! All you need is a NEW PERSPECTIVE on the empty cup that you once thought to be of no use!!!!
Sometimes we THINK we need to be “full” in order to “pour out”, but truly the Lord asks us to die to ourselves so that He might live in us. THEN, our cup overflows!!!
Here’s to daily being “empty” so that we can be “full” and very “useful”!
With Love,
The Martin Family
. . . And we all know how many empty cups the Neely Team has! I also like Sharon’s question about what y’all could do with full cups! Spiritually speaking, y’all have always filled our cups with your love for Christ, and friendship. Thanks for sharing this fun post!
Oh, and by the way, was Mom actually CONCENTRATING behind you?!?
Creativity: “Approaching an empty cup from an entirely new perspective!” 🙂 You guys are too much fun.
I will have to try this with my cousins at a family gathering sometime. If I ever have something that I don’t know what to do with it I’ll ask the Neely Team for suggestions.
We just learned the “empty cup” game from your video and spent about an hour playing it around our kitchen table! It was so much fun! Thank you for posting it 🙂
Your family has been such an encouragement to us as we have been following your blog for the past few weeks now! Thank you for being a bright testimony of a large family in godly fellowship with each other! You’re a blessing!
