Turning the sprinklers on

I was walking this morning and passed one of my neighbor's homes with their sprinkler system on. Their yard was beautiful when all around them all of the rest of the homes grass was brown. But there was one other neighbor that had just as nice a yard. It was the neighbor right next to the one with the sprinkler system on. While the next door neighbor didn't have a sprinkler system, their grass was being watered from the run off from of the neighbor's. What a cool picture of the by product of spiritual maturity. If we are feeding ourselves; doing those things we need to do to grow in Christlikeness, others are blessed by the run off. The 23rd Psalm says, "surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life." Ain't it great when our growth in Christ blesses others with goodness and mercy?
