Overflowing Cup: The Promise of Heaven's Rest

Most of what we read in The Psalm if David is about the journey and how God (our Shepherd) protects us and leads us along the way. We are His sheep after all...Anyhow, for me it’s the promise that I love so much;“You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies; you anoint my head with oil; my cup overflows. Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life, and I shall dwell in the house of the Lord forever.”Psalm 23:5-6 You see, in Heaven, there will be no more enemies. Satan can’t touch us anymore...he’s out of luck. Because after a life journey marked by hardship and troubles, our new life will be abundant, symbolized by an overflowing cup. Our earthly lives are always marked and driven by our fearful realization that time is short. Lately, I’ve been looking around asking myself, “where did the time go?” We feel the pressure to get it now, get it fast before the game is over. When we enter Heaven though, we can exhale once and for all and relax and chill, since we will be in the Lord’s presence forever. The Lord’s goodness and mercy that we have sensed and tasted on earth will surround us completely in heaven. Sin, guilt, fear, and death will trouble us no more. Sounds amazing...Be Nice, Grace Wins
