Do I consider my lot in life as an opportunity or a burden?
Is it half empty (pessimist) or half full (Optimist)?
Then I wondered why I need be satisfied with half of anything. Why can't I have an overflowing cup?
Fill My Cup, Lord
Words and Music by Richard Blanshard
Words and Music by Richard Blanshard
John 4:14
"But whosoever drinketh of the water that I shall give him shall never thirst;
- Like the woman at the well
I was seeking For things that could not satisfy:
And then I heard my Savior speaking:
"Draw from my well that never shall run dry".
- Chorus
Fill my cup Lord,
I lift it up, Lord!
Come and quench this thirsting of my soul;
Bread of heaven, Feed me till I want no more
Fill my cup, fill it up and make me whole!
There are millions in this world who are craving
The pleasures earthly things afford;
But none can match the wondrous treasure
That I find in Jesus Christ my Lord.
- Chorus
Fill my cup Lord,
I lift it up, Lord!
Come and quench this thirsting of my soul;
Bread of heaven, Feed me till I want no more
Fill my cup, fill it up
and make me whole!

Good morning, Mary! Is it even morning where you are? I'm not sure. I told you I'd be dropping by and I'm glad I did.
Your post is one that I can really relate to and I'm sure others can, too. Trying to keep our eyes on the big picture, seeing God's providence in all of our circumstances (not just the good) is a challenge we all face. I think the best we can do is what you propose here: ask the Lord to fill our cup.
Thanks for stopping by my blog and I hope to hear from you again soon.
