But God.
Two small yet powerful words. Everything hinges on those two words. Think about it. We wouldn't be here, But God created us. We didn't make this, But God did. We can't do this, But God can. You intended this for evil, But God used it for good.
That is it right there. It doesn't matter how badly we mess up, how stupid we act, how wrong we are... He can change it. He makes our crooked paths straight. Think about it. How many times have you done something that you immediately knew was a very bad idea? How many times were you able to get out of it on your own? How many times have you been so certain you were right, only to find out later, you were very, very wrong? I mean it. Seriously take a few moments and think about the screw-ups in your life.
Who rescued you?
But God.
I wouldn't be here...... But God rescued me. But God used people to help me see. But God was there. But God loves me. But God. It all hinges on that one tiny little phrase, that is so very big. It all comes back to Him. He loves us enough to do the things we cannot do. He loves us enough to rescue us time and time again and straighten our paths back out when we've made them all crooked and crazy.
If only we could remember, instead of going into panic mode each time something new happens. We always seem to forget when it comes down to the wire. We definitely forget when things are going our way. We think that we are in control and that we can do what we want, when we want, and not have any consequences, because it's all about me, right? Then we finally, finally hit our knees.... crying out to Papa, "PLEASE!!!!!!!! HELP ME! I CAN"T DO THIS! PLEASE LORD I NEED YOU!!!!!!"
And we realize.....
He Is Enough.
In every situation, He is enough. In everything, He is enough. Try it out... Lost your job? He is enough. Divorced? He is enough. Childless? He is enough. Hungry? He is enough. Thirsty? He is enough.
Each and every time, we come to understand two things:
But God.
He Is Enough.
Put them together and you have the most powerful thing you could ever carve into your heart and mind:
But God, He is Enough.
No matter what I face. No matter where I go. No matter what I do. No matter what anyone else says.
But God, He is Enough.
Always and forever, amen.
