My Portion and My Cup
My Portion and My Cup
"The LORD is my chosen portion and my cup; you hold my lot." Psalm 16:5
When you feel cheated, unlucky, thinking that others get the promotion, the deals, the blessings, while you get all the disappointments, heartbreak, and trauma, there is a facet of God's name that is just for you.
Portion and cup represent the size of your daily serving. To call the Lord your Portion and Cup indicates the he determines the size and amount of your daily serving. More than that, the Lord IS your Portion and Cup.
Don't waste energy comparing yourself to how much others have. Stop complaining about the amount of your portion and the size of your cup. Christ is your Portion and Cup.
Jesus loves you and you can trust him to provide. He will always give you the appropriate amount to your portions and the size of your cup.
Lord Jesus, I repent of grumbling and complaining. Forgive me for my unfair comparisons. Today I gratefully choose you as my Portion and my Cup. From this day forward I will be grateful for the amount of my portion and the size of my cup.
