Since the Lord is our shepherd, our cup overflows with blessings. Goodness and mercy follow us every day of our lives.

The Psalmist had no idea what blessings would come to us through the overflowing cup of blessings that we share whenever we drink from the chalice of salvation. He couldn’t even imagine what it would be like, not only to dwell in the house of the Lord, but to become the very dwelling place of the Lord. The cup that overflows for us makes us vessels of Christ’s Blood, vessels of divinity itself. The cup that overflows for us not only enables us to dwell in the house of the Lord, but it enables the Lord to dwell is us, and we are indeed richly blessed.
