MORE THAN ENOUGH

God is MORE THAN ENOUGH. We all say "Yes, He is" , but do we truly accept and allow this truth to permeate our daily lives? Finances - God is MORE THAN ENOUGH, Relationships - God is MORE THAN ENOUGH, Health - God is MORE THAN ENOUGH. We all say it and to an extent I think we believe it. But - we always add a "but". But I have sinned, but I have screwed up, but I got myself into this mess, but I did this to myself. I think these things all the time. These thoughts of doubt cause us to ponder more on ourselves than to ponder the truth - God is MORE THAN ENOUGH. These are the big things. As I have been soaking up this lesson this past week - my feelings got hurt by someone I really love and I wish this someone would treat me better and treat others better. I didn't want to overlook this, in fact I pondered the possibility of just ending this relationship as this person really tends to be negative OFTEN. This is just a little thing I faced - I was prompted to remember - God is MORE THAN ENOUGH. I had to argue a bit with God - was this relationship needed, especially when I was not getting much benefit from it. God is MORE THAN ENOUGH. Perhaps what I expect in this relationship is something I should be expecting from God and not a mere human. Hmmm. There is a thought for you.

Work has been crazy - it our busiest time of year and this, by far, has been our busiest year since I have been here. To say the least - I was getting grouchy as day after day after day, I could not complete my days to-do list. I am a HUGE list person and being able to complete one daily is very important to me. At my peak of frustration I was reminded - God is MORE THAN ENOUGH. There's another odd thought - God and my work - together. It makes perfect sense as we should allow God in where ever and every where but yet - it just seems odd. But I started praying over my list, over the incoming flow of work, over my attitude and level of stress and peace. Today there is light at the end of the tunnel!

I continue the journey of weight loss and achieving optimal health. God has really been knocking on my door to let Him in and to let him help. I realized I had just cracked the door and hadn't totally let him in. This is an area I am ashamed of and have difficulty letting God see how bad I let this get - LIKE HE DOESN'T ALREADY KNOW!!! Any way - thoughts of giving up and just being happy at this size have been trying to get into my regular thinking this week. But thank God the reminder that God is MORE THAN ENOUGH is popping in more. I have had a couple of deep revelations about God and my health this week.

I am challenged to see what other areas I just crack the door for God's help rather than letting him all the way in and letting Him be MORE THAN ENOUGH. I hope after reading this that you will be too.

Lots of love to all!
