“ …up the brim!”

“ They filled them up to the brim”  Jn 2.7

 

When God gives, he gives not just full, but up to the brim.

You give water, he gives you wine.

You give bread, he gives you his body.

 You give your boat for a pulpit, he returns it full of fish.

You give five loaves, he feeds five thousand and twelve baskets more  left over.

You give a bucket of water, he gives you a perennial spring.

You hope for a piece of bread and a linen to cover your body and  a place among the servants …but he kills the fattened calf, gives the best robe and a place at the banqueting table.
