Enough

Tonight I was listening to the words to this song by Chris Tomlin and was struck by how completely true it is. What a comfort and peace to know He truely is enough. No more. No less. He is everything I need, exactly when I need it. Through the good times, through the hard times He is steadfast, a rock, my true anchor when everything is going crazy. A constant Friend who loves me unconditionally and a place where I find peace in this uncertain life. He truely is enough. Tonight I find myself being reminded just how awesome it is to know Him and be loved by Him.

All of You is more than enough for all of me
For every thirst and every need
You satisfy me with Your love
And all I have in You is more than enough

You are my supply
My breath of life
And still more awesome than I know
You are my reward
worth living for
And still more awesome than I know

All of You is more than enough for all of me
For every thirst and every need
You satisfy me with Your love
And all I have in You is more than enough

You’re my sacrifice
Of greatest price
And still more awesome than I know
You’re the coming King
You are everything
And still more awesome than I know

More than all I want
More than all I need
You are more than enough for me
More than all I know
More than all I can say
You are more than enough for me

Love is...

I read this today during my quiet time and was reminded again of how we are called to love.

" Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. it is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. Love never fails.
I Corinthians 13: 4-8a


The word "always" really stuck out to me today. Sure, sometimes I love like this, but I am no where close to always showing this kind of love. But it is my desire! I want to love not only my husband and kids like that, but my neighbors, people I like, people I don't like, everyone! I want to love like Jesus loves me! Another thought I had was how the Father loves me like that and how I can rest so securely in His love because He ALWAYS loves like this...good news for me! I love these verses and was challenged and encouraged from them today. I hope they encourage you too.
