For the past week in Class our goal has been to focus on keeping our cup full. God’s love is there for us daily to remind us that He is the one who fills our cup. ?
We often wake up and feel the need to fill our cups by others words or actions. We find ourselves seeking compliments, posting on social media to get more likes etc…& if we don’t get those things or the attention we would like, we feel sad and unhappy…We forget to disconnect from it all to remind ourselves that the the joy is already within us!!! ? That there’s no need to depend on others or to seek to fill ourselves by looking for joy in outside sources. Those things are only temporary! They’re never enough or fully satisfying. So, we just keep searching for more and end up in a constant cycle of just NEEDING from others. ???♀️
Our lives are meant to be better than that! We’re meant to find the fullness and Joy from what God can provide Daily! He is the ONLY CONSTANT in our lives. He is the one we will see when we leave this earth! ? He is the ONLY ONE WHO BRINGS TRUE PEACE, LOVE & JOY ❤️ Enough to overflow our cup and to help us to give more to others. His love is always here and available to those of us who SEEK IT! FIND IT & Allow ourselves to enjoy His love, fullness & strength that it brings to our lives. ???
When we’re able to see that the only true acceptance and love that we need in this life is the love and acceptance of God. We’re better able to fill ourselves with His light and love. We’re able to love ourselves for who God sees we can become! We don’t become dependent on others to fill us or to make us feel good and happy each day. Instead, we make it a priority Daily to spend some time alone with God. To try to listen to Him, to connect to Him and to allow ourselves to be open to His wisdom and guidance for our lives. We allow Him to show us the path of true happiness for our lives and we ask Him to help us focus and place our heart and priorities on the right things each day. We ask Him to help us keep our cups full and overflowing each day with His love and peace so that we may be able to be GIVERS from our overflow and not constantly wanting to be takers from others because God Provides more than enough to fill us! ??????
I hope that you’re able to find this joy and peace for your life. That your cup may be full and overflowing in God & that through Him you will accomplish what will be truly joyful and fulfilling for your life. ❤️Not ever depending or putting your trust on anyone else…not even on yourself! But to instead turn it ALL to God who knows what’s best for you and for your life. I hope that this message touches your heart according to what God wants you to gain from it. I pray that you will strengthen yourself and grow from this! That you will no longer depend on anyone else’s acceptance or anything else other than God to fill you!…The more that we’re able to do this the more strength we will get and the more that God will give us! ??❤️? Trust Him!! & Do your best! ????
Love,

Dear Lili
i have thru my life have depended on others to fulfill my life, until I realized that only God can do that. Marriages dissolve, and children grow up and move away. Then you are left alone not knowing how your life will be filled. It took me some time to realize that all that was temporary, but God’s love, grace is always with you and he never leaves you. I some times feel I am not worthy of his love, but know he has not left me and will always be by my side. I truly can say my cup has been full from the day I came into this world. Have learned lessons hopefully, and have been led to where I am now which is where God wants me putting my faith and my love for him first.
Happy Mother’s Day may God bless you and yours.
Love ya Margie
