Full of it

Full of it

I am sure that you have heard this statement…"is the cup half full or half empty?“  We live in a world where I would venture to say that most of the time, we live life halfway filled up, but not brimming over by any means.  Whether it be cares that we take on, the people we do life with, the current circumstances we are facing, sometimes this world throws us some pretty hefty curve balls.

I am encouraged by a prayer that Paul prayed in Colossians 1:9-10:

9 So we have not stopped praying for you since we first heard about you. We ask God to give you complete knowledge of his will and to give you spiritual wisdom and understanding. 10 Then the way you live will always honor and please the Lord, and your lives will produce every kind of good fruit. All the while, you will grow as you learn to know God better and better.

As you can see by the image above, the cup is completely full.  This is how God wants me and you.  Completely full of the knowledge of His will, spiritual wisdom, and understanding. 

One thing I see with God is that He doesn’t partially do anything.  He goes all in on everything that He does concerning you and I.  Thats awesome!!  In other words, when you are feeling empty or like you are running low on fuel to keep going, you can remind yourself of this prayer and say "God! I thank you that I am completely FULL of your knowledge, spiritual wisdom and understanding!” 

The knowledge of Gods will…WOW! The spiritual wisdom of Gods will…WOW!! Complete understanding of Gods will…WOW!! God doesn’t want us wondering what His will is!  He wants you knowing it in complete fullness!!  How do you know someones will or intentions?? YA HANG OUT WITH THEM!!  God wants us full.  Not just nibbling but so loaded up that you could feed an army!  Spend some time today meditating what the fullness of His will in your life looks like!  According to His word, you will begin to live very fruitful!
