Fullness

Thou wilt shew me the path of life: in thy presence is fullness of joy; at thy right hand there are pleasures for evermore.     

Ps. 16:11

Fullness of Joy...

Why fullness?

Because those who 

hunger and thirst 

for God Himself

will only be satisfied

 with HIS PRESENCE 

and when 

HE is our passion, 

we will take in every part of

 WHO He Is...

It's what David talks about in Ps. 37:3

“Trust (lean on, rely on, and be confident) in the Lord and do good; so shall you dwell in the land and feed on His faithfulness.”

Fullness of joy is God's reward for those who diligently seek HIM by faith!

It's a fullness that gives a satisfaction much deeper than anything this world can give. The person satiated with God has need of nothing else upon the earth.

This fullness shows itself in 
a contentment with Godliness,
 which is great gain. 

It need not look around or 

wait for the right 

conditions or circumstances

 to COME,

faith has found 

its satisfaction, 

IN HIM.

This is the fruit of a yielded life, and one that roots itself deep in the fertile soil of Knowing HIM, not for what He gives, but for Who He is.

Elijah found this contentment.

While others were famishing in the drought unable to get their gods to answer, he was feasting himself upon the Lord, shutting up the heaven through his communion in prayer.

"God loves with a great love the man whose heart is bursting with a passion for the impossible."
~William Booth

Prayer is a shield to the soul, a sacrifice to God, and a scourge for Satan. ~John Bunyan
