A Godly Teacup...What would that look like?

I had such a wonderful time at the 15th annual Victorian Tea at First Baptist Church in Fort Meade on Sunday. This Church's women's ministry has got it together. Thank You Lesha, Carolyn, Vivian and all the others who had there hands in it. God is truly using you to minister in your Church and it is overflowing onto others.
Since this topic is on my heart right now, I thought I would share a couple of thoughts with you from the message I presented to these ladies this weekend.

Teacups symbolize daintiness, elegance, socializing, and good times. The perfect representation of a Women's event. The Bible refers to our lives in several places as empty vessels or can I say empty teacups. Just like our teacups, we choose what we fill our lives with. Things that do not satisfy or the real thing Jesus. I began to think about what a Godly Teacup would look like if it were a living, breathing Christian women. I believe the life would be authentic. She would be the real thing, the only one like it, which would draw people to her. Her cup or life would be clean inside and out. Her life would be spirit filled and powerful. Not perfect. The cup would get cracked or broken on life's journey but she would let her designer bear the burden of repairing her back to a useful state. Which He would do and she would then be even more beautiful and valuable after the restoration. This is the kind of teacup I want to be. As II Timothy 2:21 states, a vessel unto honour,
clean inside and out, and it would be prepared for and useful in every good work the owner has planned for it. What kind of teacup are you? Over the next few weeks we will look at four different cups we can be that keep us from being the teacup God wants us to be, so stay tuned.......
2 Timothy 2:21- "If a man therefore purge himself from these, he shall be a vessel unto honour, sanctified, and meet for the master's use, and prepared unto every good work."
