Pastor's Blog - “When God’s Love Overflows”

Do you see what I did there Star Trek fans???

Sometimes life feels like a dry riverbed—empty, dusty, and waiting for rain. But God is not a cautious giver. Scripture reminds us a gain and again that God is like a river that overflows its banks, bringing life to the most barren places. 

Think of the boy with five loaves and two fish. He didn’t have much, but Jesus took his small offering and turned it into an overflowing feast. Or consider recent disaster relief efforts, where churches and volunteers poured out resources and compassion, proving that love grows when it’s shared. 

Challenge

Find one small way to let your love overflow—write an encouraging note, share a meal, or volunteer. Let’s be the river God uses to bring life. 

Summary 

God’s love is a river that overflows its banks—filling our lives with grace and spilling into the world through us. From modern generosity stories to Jesus feeding the five thousand, we see that when we offer what little we have, God multiplies it. God is enough, and His goodness is meant to overflow. 

Sendoff 

Friends, remember this: God’s grace is not a measured sip—it’s an overflowing cup. Let Him fill you today, and then go spill His love everywhere you go.  Blessings to you!  

Reflection Questions

1. Where in your life do you feel like dry ground? How might God’s overflowing grace bring life there? 

2. What “loaves and fish” do you have—however small—that you could offer to God?
