Are You A Fountain Or A Drain?

  1. I really hope I am a fountain and not a drain.

  2. Seasons maybe... Now more like a drain than a fountain. But even now I can bubble like a fountain. Always something to praise.

  3. Ooooh, that's a convicting question. I can be both. I try to be a fountain, but sometimes I just need someone to vent to, and then I'm probably more of a drain.

    1. I think we can all be both and have all been drains at some point. But venting isn't necessarily a drain, I don't think. Maybe it's just purging the water so you can bubble again. And someone willing to listen to your venting (as long as it's legitimate) will fill you back up if you need it. :)

  4. Well I'm a fountain first
    Until I'm about to burst
    Then I grab my zipper
    And drain so all stays chipper

    What? Wasn't that what you meant?
    Hey, it's sort of a vent.

    1. I think most of us do try, don't we? But we all have our moments...

    1. Are you saying those around you are draining? haha....I've been there before...

    2. You got it. I have had to stop up the drains and that's not as easy as it sounds. Sometimes when you stop up one; another one opens up. Yikes!

    3. Well, pass along the quote/question. haha. Just keep being a fountain, Carol! Hopefully they'll get some plugs. :)

  11. Well Betsy, that is something to think on this Monday Morning. I am reading Laura Story's book, When God Doesn't Fix It and it has been very convicting, then I see your blog title and I wonder if God is telling me something!

    1. It should speak to all of us, really. Food for thought...a great reminder. Hopefully if we have become drains we'll see the light and change. It's always good to reflect and take note...myself included!

  12. A fountain I am but sometimes a very tired fountain.

  13. Mostly a fountain, I hope. But occasionally a drain. I would be suspect of someone who was always a fountain!
