The one Without the Nettle and Grass Smoothie

Honest about my faith

Overflowing?

Chocolate fountains are great with all that none stop chocolate being pumped out. The only thing sad about chocolate fountains is that often you are given fruit to dip into them and that leaves me wondering why anyone would want to spoil good chocolate with fruit? Chocolate fondues are okay where you can dip something (hopefully something that isn’t fruit!) into a pot of chocolate, but there is something better about the flowing chocolate.

Although it may feel too obvious to point out it is still worth reminding ourselves that the essential ingredient in a chocolate fountain is the chocolate.

Chocolate is at the source and so chocolate is what comes out.

Jesus said, ‘The mouth speaks what the heart is full of ‘ (Luke 6 v45).

This is the principle of overflow, that what is at the source is what will come out.

Stop and think about what comes out of your mouth…

About honestaboutmyfaith

Hi, my name is Graeme and I’m married to a very patient wife. We have 4 children, 2 rabbits, a terrapin (and not a lot of peace and quiet!). I’m a Regional Minister for the Eastern Baptist Association in the UK (the views expressed in this blog are my own) and I am especially interested in making Church accessible to people who have no church background and also in how we disciple people in order to equip them to live out their faith in the 21st Century.
