Last week we began a two part message: Thank God for the Overflow. Today we finish that message. We must realize that we can never produce what is not in us. James says a good well can not give bad water and the opposite is also true. The amazing thing is that we can be quite productive by being so full of God's fruits that everyone around us can be ministered too--all from the overflow.

While looking at the bird feeders in my yard, I was amazed at all the sunflowers that had sprung up. They all came from the overflow. We know that Jesus speaks of himself as a kernel of wheat, a seed, that had to be planted in order for salvation to be possible. Before you can have a Pentecost you must have a Passover. Jesus was our Passover Lamb. He was willing to be planted to die so we could come to life.
