nothing is enough until God is

Nothing is enough until God is. Until God Is Enough nothing is. This is a tough message to understand in our material and self-reliant world. Often we need to come to our end to say that God is enough. And then it's a discipline to keep saying, God is enough. It's so easy for me to take my eyes off Jesus. When I look down, it's when I am in control but when I look up with my hands open to the heavens, that's when Jesus is. He wants that to be my attitude every day, a surrender to him of all that I am, all that I dream of and all that I have. Funny that all that we have is from him anyway but we hold it so tightly. As I go through another tough spot in my life, I am reminded to look up, he is enough.

Hear my cry

Father in heaven I thank you that you give us permission to ask why questions and how questions. I thank you that you give us permission to complain, to lament. I know I can have deep confidence in a big God. Your power and might are established over and over again in your word and in my life. So I cry out to you and lay the heavy burdens I carry at your feet, and surrender them to you for your purpose to be worked out. Amen
