Fill My Cup



I stood on the ocean shore, the waves breaking right before my feet, the brisk wind kissing my face as it passed by. My eyes and thoughts searched for miles, it seemed that I had reached the end of soil and water went on for eternity. I imagined myself as a cup and God as the all the waters of the earth. Someone once asked me, “If you were a cup, and God was all of the bodies of water on the Earth, who are you to think that you can fit everything about God in your simple little cup?” Truth is, He is all-powerful, He has power beyond our imagination, and compassion beyond our vision. Truth is, He is bigger than all of the waters on the Earth, He created the water. Truth is, we can live our whole entire life getting to know Him better, and we will always have something to learn about Him, He is beyond us in everyway. Isaiah 55:9 says, “For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are My ways higher than your was, and My thoughts than your thoughts.” God could drown us with His power, but He gently fills our cup when the time is right. A friend of mine has been praying for something for twelve years. This past week, she was struggling with God’s plan, and why He hadn’t answered her request. At her lowest time, God filled her cup and answered her prayer request. His thoughts are far beyond our thoughts, and His ways are far beyond our ways. Trust in Him, and He will guide and direct your path.
