VESSELS OF GOD!

 

Do you know=that you

ARE an EMPTY CONTAINER==to be

FULLY FILLED=with God’s=love?

To give and receive=to others=

You are a container=of GOD’S

FILLED with HIS DIVINE LOVE

 

“……..whoever SOWS BOUNTIFULLY=will

Also reap bountifully”                                                                                                        2 Corinthians 9:6

 

We are=VESSELS OF GOD=to be

FILLED with his love=HIS MERCY=his joy

And his grace

 

We are=to GIVE and receive

ALL of these qualities=with other people

IN this world=BOTH

Believers and nonbelievers

SHOW them God’s love

BE A VESSEL=OF GOD

 

“But will God=really dwell

On earth?=The heavens=even

The highest heaven=Cannot contain you”                                                                         1 Kings 8:27

 

“He writes the same way=in all

His letters=speaking in them=Of these matters

 

His letters=CONTAIN SOME THINGS

That are hard to understand=which

Ignorant and unstable people distort

 

As they do the OTHER SCRIPTURES=

To their own destruction”                                                                                                    2 Peter 3:16

 

As containers=OR VESSELS=as you will

We CANNOT=stay empty for long

 

UNFORTUNATELY=many of us

Are filled with=THE WRONG THINGS=things like

Hatred=jealousy=GREED=anger=and gossip

 

But if=we are=TRUE VESSELS=of God

We fill ourselves with LOVE=and

THE FRUITS of the Spirit=FILL yourselves up

WITH=the good things of God

 

“You make known to me=the

Path of life=you will FILL ME

 

With joy=in your presence=with eternal pleasures

At your right hand”                                                                                                              Psalm 16:11

 

“All of them=WERE FILLED

With the Holy Spirit=and began to speak

In other tongues=as the Spirit=enabled them”                                                         Acts 2:4

 

WHEN we are containers of God=VESSELS

Of God ‘s love=filled with his love

 

We are CALLED TO POUR out

Our gifts from God=to others=and RECEIVE

Gifts from others in return=to make

A DIFFERENCE=in this life

 

And WHEN we do this=God GIVES US

Even more gifts=to pass along

 

OUR CULTURE=tells us there is

A SCARCITY of goods in this world=and

In our country

 

But when we are FILLED WITH GOD’S LOVE=

There are GOODS AND SERVICES available=for

Those in need

 

So BE a=VESSEL OF GOD’S LOVE=in this world

And do what you can to

MAKE a difference for someone else=in this world

We are=VESSELS OF GOD!

 

In Jesus’ name= and in the name=OF our ever GIVING=ever loving=Holy Father God!
