Time is a ticking
as it never stops.
Now is the time
when we all get
introspective
and look back at the past year~
the good times
&
the not so good times,
the I wish I did this or that
&
the I wish didn't do this or that.
Why is it so much easier to make a list
of what isn't
&
instead of what is?
Take some time today to make a list
of all that is
right
as there is so much more
than you could ever imagine.
What if the first sip you take out of the glass of
2018
is a sip of
Thankfulness
a sip of
Forgiveness
a sip of
Peace
a sip of
Patience
a sip of
Love
a sip of
Him~
who fills your cup
to the brim
of all that is
beyond what is
"Merry and Bright".
As my youngest, when she was very young
would ask us for a
Piece of Sip~
of what was in our glass.
She had no clue what was in the cup
yet she craved it
yet she desired it.
So what if
the glass
I raise
&
you raise
to welcome in
2018
is so overflowing with
Thanksgiving
for
the
Birth of the Baby
in our hearts
that other's around us just want
a
Piece of Sip~
just a piece
is all it takes
for
Him
to do the possible in the impossible
and that is
to fill us
what truly satisfies.
Cheers to you
Cheers to yours
Cheers with
the
First Revelation
that
God has placed on my heart
as I prepare to change this year
and
that is to
Make me
&
Shape me
Lord
into one whose
every
Piece of Sip
of You
is beyond filling
so that our prayer is
"that out of His glorious riches He may strengthen you with power through His Spirit in your inner being,
so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith.
And I pray that you, being rooted and established in love,
may have power, together with all the Lord’s holy people,
to grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ,
and to know this love that surpasses knowledge—
that you may be filled to the measure of all the fullness of God.
Now to Him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine,
according to His power that is at work within us,
to Him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus
throughout all generations, for ever and ever!
Amen". Ephesians 6:16-21
So great ready
for
the best year of your life
when you
take a
Piece of Sip
of the
One
who fills you
beyond your wildest dreams.
