I love the 23rd Psalm. It was probably one the first sets of scriptures I memorized when I was growing up and attending Girls’ Auxiliary (G.A.’s) at church.
“The Lord is my Shepherd...(vs. 5)-my cup runneth over.”
Do you ever fill like your “cup runneth over”?
At times I dwell on the problems I have that runneth over my cup, but I prefer to center my life around the blessings I have that runneth my cup over; like, joy, everyday delights, good neighbors, great church friends, even things like, “hey, my car runs, I have good health, I have a roof over my head, I have friends I can call when I need to talk, and things like that. Most of all though is that I have Jesus in my heart and I have salvation through belief in Him, and that gives me security, hope, and joy. This last one is what makes my cup runneth over.
Following along with that is a saying which I have framed on my wall- (author unknown)
“I am drinking from my saucer
‘cause my cup has overflowed.
I’ve got a friend in Jesus,
and that makes me rich enough.”
