64. The Overflowing Cup

clean-clear-cold-water- glass

Previously, I taught you to wash the inside of your cup. That is, cleanse your heart through repentance. You do not purify your heart so that it remains empty, but so that it may be filled. Through repentance, you make your heart hospitable to the Presence of God. By living the Way, may the Divine Grace, and everything good the Grace brings, overflow within you. 

Read: Psalm 23; John 4.4-14; Romans 15.13; 1 Peter 1.8
