"When we have nothing left but God, we discover that God is enough."
Have you ever come to that place, hit rock-bottom, lost everything and everyone, if not physically, at least emotionally? Well, I have.
And yes, I bet most of you have too at some point in your lives. This moment for me was several years ago, after I had pushed God out of my life for literally YEARS and I had pushed my friends and even my husband away to the point that I was willing to walk out on everyone I cared about. I wanted to quit. Quit everything. I felt completely alone.
But then a beautiful thing happened. In that deepest, darkest hole I had created for myself, I found God. I found Him in the most real, genuine, “I’m all in forever” kind of way. Because having been stripped of everything I had ever used as an excuse to sideline my Heavenly Father, I was finally able to face my issues with Him, have a heart-to-heart, and then, finally let them go. I was finally faced with the fact that even if I lost everything, He was enough. He would always be enough.
Are you looking to those around you to fulfill those deepest spiritual needs? Are you expecting too much from your family, your husband, your friends, because you aren’t first and foremost seeking that fulfillment in Christ? Trust me, I’ve been there and I get it. Put it all aside and meet with your Savior. Not tomorrow, or next week. Today. He is all you need right now. He is all you need forever
