You're full of it

Often I would hear my parents tell me I was full of it. As a youngster, I really didn't understand what they meant but as time went on I began to realize that they meant that I was full of bull. I was a mischievous child, that was full of it.

The truth of the matter, though, is that we are all full of something. So many folks are full of doubts and fears, what "ifs" and "I never will". Others are full of "I am the greatest," "Nothing can stop me," and "Girl, you sure hit the jackpot with me." Yeah, right.

Today's word is from Romans 15:13, which reads, "May the GOD of hope fill you with joy and peace."

We are all full of something. That which is in us will eventually make its way out. If we are full of negativity, negative things will spring forth. If we are full of ourselves, all that will be coming forth from us is us. If we allow GOD to fill us with His hope and His peace, we will be able to share that with others.

Yeah, we are all full of something, and that something changes regularly. I want to concentrate on being full of JESUS and sharing His hope and peace with others. Now, that would be something to be full of.

Be Blessed,
Mickey T
