{dot}.full

I bet you're wondering what in the world the title of this blog means.
...at least I'm kind of hoping you are.

To be honest, I'm not entirely sure yet. I'm still trying to figure it out exactly what it means to be {full}. 

And apparently I thought a blog would be the best way to do that.

I keep finding myself wishing my life were more {hope}.full, {faith}.full, {thank}.full and {grace}.full. Seems like way more often my life looks a little too [fear].full, [doubt].full, and [sin].full.

Which really isn't {full} at all.

It's [empty]. And it's there that life starts becoming [thought].less, [meaning].less, and [purpose].less.

But Jesus said that we're supposed to be {life}.full.

Life isn't supposed to be [stress].full, [regret].full, [shame].full, [doubt].full, [fear].full, [sin].full.

So why am I, why are we, always ending up there?
And how do we live as {full}y as Jesus meant for us to?
Praying that the Lord will show me, and trusting that in the process I'll become a little more {Christ}.full. 

"I have come that they might have life, and have it to the {full}."
John 10:10
