A word often heard in our home is enough... Is there enough bread for sandwiches tomorrow? Enough leftovers to feed six? Enough clean socks for school in the morning? Enough money to pay that big bill at the end of the month? Somehow we always do have enough - enough food on the table, enough rooms for everyone to have their own space, enough clothes in the closet (or in the dryer, at least!) Enough is good, it is right and peaceful. It is contented and satisfied.
A prevalent message from Madison Avenue is that less is NOT more, and sometimes even more isn't more. And yet when I slip into this vortex of want, a song that soothes my heart and feeds my soul is Enough, by Jeremy Camp:
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.
Thank you Jesus, that your grace is enough, and you give us all that we need. Fill us with contentment and let us rest in the abundance of the moment in every way.
