Pause for a moment and think of the list of things you want.

Now think of the list of things you wanted and now have.

What happened when you got your want?

Did it shrink the list or did you just replace it with something else?

I’ve been thinking about enough. The concept and timing of it.

What is having enough? When do I have enough?

There are things that I wept and fought and begged for that I now have.

And I only vaguely remember the deep desire I once had for it. I barely even remember it as once a want.

But when will my current station, as is, no additions or subtractions, be enough?

What will it take to be able to say I have enough?

Based on the way I’ve been living, I realized nothing would get me there.

Nothing can get me to enough when there’s an insatiable desire for more, when the list of wants never shrinks.

So I’m changing the game.

First, I don’t want to make casual what was once my extravagant. I want to appreciate the blessings and people and situations I am privileged to experience. Those things I bawled my eyes out for and now have. I want to re-appreciate them.

Second, I don’t want to put the pressure of savior on my dreams and desires. Hopes and aspirations for better and more are cool. But they can’t be my definition of enough. Because they’ll come and I’ll still feel lack.

Third, I want to live a life of enough daily. If all I have is what I have, that’s enough.

And lastly, I’m realizing I have enough. Enough has come. It came when I met Jesus. He’s my more than enough, my all in all.

Hope this helps!
