No matter what container came to mind, God is both
willing, able and eager to get it up to running over!
Want to rethink your answer to my question? Have at
it. Go bigger still. You won't even begin to even approach exhausting God's
willingness, ability and eagerness to fill it to over flowing.
By now, you know very, very
well,
The one condition He has applied.
It's ringing in your mind like a bell,
The one condition He has applied.
It's ringing in your mind like a bell,
"That in Me you faithfully abide."
Here is my answer to the above question: My
imagination! Yep, that is the biggest container, not only in my house …
in my LIFE! Why not?? After all, Paul affirms:
God
is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think, according
to His power at work in us, to Him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus to
all generations, forever and ever. Amen! (Ephesians
3:20-21)
Ergo, in Christ:
I’m as healed and healthy as I am saved! (Isaiah 53:4-5)
Both wise and wealthy as I am engraved,(1 Cor. 2:16; 2 Cor. 8:9)
In palms of this very great God of mine. (Isaiah 49:16)
With whom I’ll spend eternity…without time! (Daniel 12:3)
I let God’s Word change what I was thinkin’; (Romans 12:2)
Change actualities at which my eyes were blinkin’. (Psalm 34:17)
Now my new life to Him is no longer stinkin', (Colossians 1:10)
Since to His ways and plans, I’m better syncin’. (Proverbs 3:6)
My thoughts are my powerful set of brushes, (Proverbs 4:23)
With which I paint on my imagination so vast. (Proverbs 16:3)
As I paint, one-by-one my fears He hushes, (Psalm 34:4)
As over me His comforting shadow is cast. (Psalm 91:1)
My past was the paint in which my brushes dipped, (1 Peter 4:3)
Rehearsing mistakes; facing satan’s plaints. (Revelation 12:10)
But now as a painter, I’m much better equipped, (Ephesians 6:13)
With brand new brushes, and God’s fresh, bright paints. (Phil. 4:7)
I’m as healed and healthy as I am saved! (Isaiah 53:4-5)
Both wise and wealthy as I am engraved,(1 Cor. 2:16; 2 Cor. 8:9)
In palms of this very great God of mine. (Isaiah 49:16)
With whom I’ll spend eternity…without time! (Daniel 12:3)

So…
Consider lingering thoughts as a draft final
report,
Of things into your life you’ll soon likely import.
Activating DNA of things hidden in your heart,
Opening gateways to the river your life will chart.
Lingering, dwelling thoughts become beliefs,
Seeding words, then actions that shape life’s
motifs!
~~~
My imagination -- the ‘gateway to and from my heart’.
My heart -- the ‘nuclear core’ of my life.
My tongue -- the ‘release valve’ of my heart.
