More than Enough

Have you ever had too much of anything? I have. I have eaten way more than I should have on numerous occasions. It's a bad feeling. You feel bloated and uncomfortable, and you feel that way for a while. It also makes me sleepy and lethargic and less than productive.

I've also had those moments when I didn't get enough to eat. Maybe we were busy and wanting to finish a project. Maybe I had gone to one of those restaurants that was doing their part to control my portions because they know my propensity to overeat. Having too little can also cause you to feel slow and lethargic because you have no energy. Having too little can also cause you to want MORE.

Today's word is Proverbs 30:9, NLT, which reads, "For if I grow rich, I may deny You and say, 'Who is the LORD?' And if I am too poor, I may steal and thus insult GOD'S holy name."

I've shared with many folks that GOD knows me. Now, I don't think I would ever get too high falutin if GOD gave me a lot of money. However, He knows the real me and maybe I will, so He doesn't. BUT, He has NEVER allowed me to need anything. We have always had enough to pay our bills and to accomplish all that we needed to. It really comes down to being grateful for ALL that HE has given you because it is ALL His to begin with.

So, do you have enough? Are you enjoying that which GOD has given you? Are you thankful for the abundance that you enjoy? Or, do you sit and complain about how little you have? Or, do you find yourself comparing what you don't have with what others do have? Maybe it is time to refocus. Maybe it is time to see how generous GOD is and how He has blessed each of us with more than we truly deserve. There is never a shortfall with GOD. He is always more than enough!

Be Blessed,
