kip posted this question in his blog & answered it quite astutely:
Glass half empty?...Half full?...I always wanted to know what people thought about that...My answer is...There is twice as much in the glass than everyone else expected there to be...and it's still filling...
janice's response:
janlyn26: what glass?
janlyn26: =)
janlyn26: i just hope it aint water
MchLLGLen: hahaha
janlyn26: how about coolaid
as for my response, i believe my cup to be completely empty.. hmm, why? u might ask.. please allow me to explain the spiritual side of this question.. a person who accepts Christ's invitation to "belong to him" must empty herself of sin, jealousy, greed, & other obstacles that would prevent the individual from attaining complete freedom.. in addition, the person must empty herself of kind works & selflessness.. for when she gives all that she can to those in need, those she loves, those she hates, she is empty and needs more to fill her up.. that's where God comes in.. He is Jehovah Jireh, the Lord our provider (Gen. 22:13-14).. He replenishes the cup & gives blessings abundantly.. sometimes the cup overflows..
for a more visual aspect.. which can be easily lifted.. the half empty/full? or the completely empty?.. and if u measure the amount of fluid added to each cup, wouldn't the empty one receive more?.. hmm.. think about it..
