i couldn’t decide if i wanted this moment, this vision for myself or to share it, but here we are;;;
a few days ago the Lord gave me a vision of this cup. it was completely full.
my first thought was that the Lord was making my cup full in this season and it was empty before, but i wasn’t fully understanding the picture at that moment in time. i didn’t think much more about it until i was praying and he made the meaning clear.
he showed me a dark liquid filling the cup. revealing to me that it was full of many, many things. occupying that space was;; insecurity, doubt, hate, anger, selfishness, anxiety, resentment, lies, pride, and at the bottom of it all sat fear. what he told me about this image was that he wanted to empty the fear, but since it sat on the bottom, the whole cup had to be emptied. the dark liquid was then poured out. but for some reason my cup still wasn’t empty.
full. somehow my cup sat full. after it had just been poured out, this new translucent liquid sat in its place. i was reminded that he makes my cup full. the contents that were once in my cup, that once ruled over me, were poured down the drain just like that. my cup now sits full of how the father sees me. full of;; joy. purpose. freedom. strength. worth. acceptance. he tells me i am beloved. mighty. righteous. chosen. he calls me wonderfully made. a new creation. his child. his daughter.
trying more and more to see myself how he sees me & dwelling on who he calls me. and he calls me his child, his daughter! his love for me is bigger and deeper than i will ever understand. when what used to fill my cup tries to find its place once more, i am able to look to this new cup and remind myself of who i am in him.
