06/14/22 GOD DESIRES TO FILL US WITH GOOD THINGS

Here is a list of some verses I compiled which refers to FUL(L)NESS. Of course, this word has to do with the state of being filled with or being full. Think on these things.

 

The word FULLNESS is used in conjunction with various ideas and is sometimes joined with other words, such as, joy-fullness, faith-fullness, fear-fullness, skill-fullness, forget-fullness, sloth-fulness, care-fulness, deceit-fulness, thank-fulness, cheer-fulness, bounti-fulness, pain-fulness. Pay attention to that which FILLS YOU.

 

Do not be filled with fearfulness, forgetfulness, slothfulness, deceitfulness, painfulness.

Be filled with Joyfulness, faithfulness, skillfulness, carefulness, thankfulness, bountifulness.

 

Sometimes the passage must be read to understand what it is that fills the person. It may be used in conjunction with that which is positive or negative. I am focusing on the more positive usage.
