Filled Every Time You Loved
The house is quiet now, and the fear creeps in that your life was too small, that you gave them everything and kept nothing for yourself. You worry they will look back one day and see only your sacrifice, feeling the heavy weight of being your entire world.
But the light that lived in Jesus was never diminished by giving; it shone brighter the more it poured out. There is a love that does not run out, a generosity that does not leave the giver empty.
You did not lose yourself in them; you found the truest part of yourself in the giving. The fear says you emptied your cup, but the truth says you were filled every time you loved.
What looks like a life lost to them will one day look like a life fully lived for love.
