Enough

When we are not enough-- for our families, for our friends, for our ministries, for what the day-to-day requires of us-- God is. There's no way to learn it except by coming to the end of yourself, but know that God is there. And, in coming to the end of all your resources, you find the Source of all you've ever needed. He is the fount of the true version of everything you've ever counterfeited with your best efforts at love and grace and strength. He is love. He is grace. He is strength. Why look for it elsewhere? Why settle for the world's version? The end of yourself is the end of the rainbow.

"My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness." 2 Corinthians 12:9
