“My cup overflows.”
How do I view my life? Is the “cup” of my life half full or half empty? Is it broken? Chipped? In need of a good washing?
Looking back at my life, it’s been a very unique one, with a wide array of experiences I would have never imagined. Most of it I would have never believed would be part of my story. But when I see the Path my Good Shepherd has led me along, His Hand holding mine, I am grateful . . . most of all that His Hand has been holding mine. My cup has held many experiences, from incredible times of blessing to devastating times of loss. But it’s been a life that has been very full. Over-full. Overflowing. And it’s not over yet.
The one Constant in my life has been God’s Presence through all of it. And the single most significant passage from Scripture, woven in and out of the years of my life, has been Psalm 23. I’ve studied it, taught about it, memorized it as a child, and returned to it often.
But I never imagined that I would be able to literally step into this life-long favorite passage in a real-life sort of way. And yet I find that I am experiencing the real-life day-to-day of the stars of Psalm 23 . . . Sheep, lambs, and the Shepherd.
Frosting on the cake!
