LORD, you alone are my inheritance, my cup of blessing.
You guard all that is mine. Psalms 16: 5 NLT
Just sharing a verse that stuck out in my reading today. Are you enjoying your cup of blessing? If God is guard all that belongs to us why are we fretting?
Joanne Sher says
My cup overflows ๐ Great verse, Wanda!
Emmah says
Awesome awesome. That is such a fresh verse. Struck me a new. It is very easy to trust in our own efforts. I love that He is sovereign and that recognition drives me to humility. He truly is Jehovah…
Angel @ Finding The Inspiring says
Good question…”why are we fretting”. God is sovereign. The Almighty One is able to protect us. Great verse!!!
Pam says

Well, Wanda, that is a loaded question. Why, indeed? Praying that we cast all that we care about on Him.

Like a strong cup of coffee this post was a jolt of reality! How I struggle with all that fretting. How I know that God guards my heart in spite of it…

Though I know with the Divine my Cup is alway full sometimes in my humanness I don’t see the cup or when i do I see it as half empty, nearly empty or simply empty.

Wanda, it is such a blessing, when a hidden nugget of the Word of God is revealed.
I cannot remember coming across this scripture before.
it’s one of those beautiful scriptures, that I can slowly meditate on, whilst I drink a nice soothing
cup of (english) tea!
Thank you so much for sharing it with us today.
