WWoW stands for Wednesday Word of the Week. I try to feature a word each Wednesday that I have come across in my reading that week. A word that I can guess the meaning to, but I'm really not sure. My goal is to increase my vocabulary. I try to define the word and then give examples on where to use it. Hope you have fun learning with me.=)
WWoW
Vacuous (vac-u-ous) adjective: Void of expression. Devoid of matter, significance, point or intelligence.
Vacuous would be the intellectual way to describe my "fluff and stuff" reads.=) Though using intellectual and vacuous in the same sentence is kind of an oxymoron.=) I think this is going to be one of my favorite WWoWs. Imagine the possibilities....
Origin: 1648 from Latin vacuous "empty, void, free" (i.e.-vacuum). Figurative sense of "empty of ideas" is from 1848.
How about these usages?
1. Though my summer days are schedule free, I don't want them to be vacuous.

3. It is rather depressing to watch my vacuous vacuum canister weekly fill with dirt, dust, food, and hair from our lives.=)
How about the opposite? Full.
...that you may be filled to the measure of all the fullness of God. Ephesians 4:19
These things have I spoken unto you, that My joy might remain in you, and that your joy might be full. John 15:11
...we pray for you and desire that you might be filled with the knowledge of His will in all wisdom and spiritual understanding. Colossians 1:9
God doesn't just desire us to be empty, to be vacuous. He wants us to be emptied of ourselves and filled with Him. The cracked pot (2 Corinthians 4:7) that His glory can shine out of.
Emptied that Thou shouldst fill me, a clean vessel in Thy hand.
With no power but as Thou givest graciously with each command.
