I talk alot about cups and how they are filled with both water AND dirt. When we mix this altogether, it’s difficult to serve the three (3) kinds of people that exist. People we know (we’ll filter our cups and give them our best – i.e. forgiveness, patience, kindness, etc.), people we don’t know (we’ll dig deep down to the muck at the bottom and give them our worst), and people we don’t know (they don’t get any because we’ve only got so much to go around). But when we wash our cups out under a waterfall of grace, kindness, mercy, forgiveness, etc. (see the waterfall image), our cups are filled with ONLY water… and now, we no longer have to judge others as either deserving of our best, our worst, or nothing at all.
