Enough
(A note to my readers: Beginning
today I’ll be posting twice per week in UP-Words Morning Notes. I’ll continue my Thursday night post and am
now adding a Monday post. Thank you for
following, for reading, for sharing, and for sending me your notes of
encouragement from time to time. You
bless me when you do.)
Tonight for dinner I had enough.
I had my fill, and it was good.
I have seven dress shirts in my closet and they are enough.
I have more than enough pairs of shoes.
I have over twenty neck ties, and that is enough.
Do you have enough?
Are you enough?
Are you loved enough?
Do you have food enough?
Do you have enough?
Sometimes people go through life believing they are not enough.
They are not pretty enough.
They are not skinny enough.
They don’t belong to the right social group.
Have no fear. You are
enough. Your existence on this planet
does not pass without notice. You were
in the mind of God from the beginning.
Your life has a purpose and a plan.
And you have enough stuff inside of you to fulfill your destiny.
You have a future with hope. And
the God of enough says you are enough.
You are enough.
Don’t block your own blessings.
Discover your goodness.
You are valid. You are
worthwhile.
Have no fear.
You are created in God’s image.
You have a speck of God inside of you.
That is an immense thought. God
cared enough to put inside each of us a particle of his nature, his
likeness. The Bible says “we are created in the image of God.”
(Genesis 1:27)
You think you are not enough?
My friend. You are enough. You are more than enough.
Whatever your challenges, whatever your dreams, whatever you want to
pursue, step out, and take the first step.
You have enough.
You are enough.
