Let's consider some definitions of the word "full" (v.) to elaborate on trying to understand FULLNESS(n.). Ponder/imagine these definitions in regards to your body, soul and spirit. BTW - do you know you are a spirit, you have a soul, and you live in a body? In addition, our soul consists of our mind, will, and emotions. Our spirit man is the most important part of us and is meant to positively influence the rest of us via the Life of God when we receive Jesus (my what a wonder He is!). However, guess who's usually in charge? ;o) But there's hope because of FULLNESS.
Back to definitions (The American Heritage College Dictionary)
"full" (v.)
- containing all that is normal or possible
- complete in every particular
- being at the peak of development or maturity
- having a great deal
- totally qualified, accepted, or empowered
- having depth of body
- rich
- What is normal or possible in the spiritual realm of fullness?
- Whoa! To be complete in every particular? Sounds like He is into detail and wholeness?
- Do you think He already sees us at the peak of development and maturity? If He is the beginning and the end seems He already sees the peak of fullness!
- Is 'having a great deal' about quantity? Maybe. Or do we get great deal (a real bargain) in FULLNESS!?
- Ever felt totally qualified, accepted, or empowered? Wouldn't that be something? It's available in fullness and it's free.That's part of the great deal. Really!
- Hmm - having depth of body. Is this for tall people? Maybe this is depth of substance? Kind of like Ps 42:7 "Deep calls unto deep..." Since we are made in His image I'd say we all have a lot of depth. Oh to see that in each other!
- Rich? Are we talkin' dollars here? Nope. I would equate this to Rom 10:12 "...abounding in riches for all who call on Him."
