The Shut and Open Case

The Shut and Open Case

I’m bursting at the seams.

The buckles break on the suitcase. It is designed for expansion. It’s packed with my goodness. My goodness!!!!

It bursts open spontaneously. Not because of what you put in it but because of what I’ve put in it. I’ve placed it on the inside. Although it’s closed I’m bursting it open.

I’ve given you too much. I’ve packed too much goodness in this case. In THIS case. This case matters to me. It cannot remain closed. It must burst open.

This is a shut and open case. An open and shut case. This is a foregone conclusion!! Beyond reasonable doubt. This is beyond unreasonable faith!!!

Church Pastor. “What you have got for me is pressed down. Shaken together.”

Luke 6:38 Give, and [gifts] will be given to you; good measure, pressed down, shaken together, and running over, will they pour into [the pouch formed by] the bosom [of your robe and used as a bag]. For with the measure you deal out [with the measure you use when you confer benefits on others], it will be measured back to you.
