A Blessing for When Your Battery is Low

Blessed are you
who have nothing to give,
yet you do anyway.

Give of your time,
your money,
your energy,
your last piece of chocolate
when your loved one
says how good that
must taste.

Your heart
is a vending machine,
distributing according
to each need:
 

A1 – help with homework
B12 – a listening ear
C6 – reassurance
D3 – missions team

God,
we love
to help and care,
but sometimes,
it drains our batteries.

Recharge us,
reset us,
remind us
that You are
the home base
we come back to
when the day
and all its demands
is done.

Blessed are you
who have nothing to give,
for the Lord
will fill and find you
a place to rest,
even for just
a few minutes.
