My name is Not Enough

I am a witness to my own inadequacy every day. 

That's a scary thought.

But it's the truth. Countless times during the span of 24 hours I give in. I give in to negative thoughts, disbelief, and human need. 

I feel tired, I feel hungry, I feel useless, I feel unsatisified. 

And so I give in.

I witness my lack of use. I witness my being not enough. 

I am not enough. I will never be enough. 

I've heard this quote, "God doesn't call the qualified, he qualifies the called" 

But the thing is, only One was qualified.

One was enough for us never being enough. 

And because of that One, we have a chance.

"He heard my voice" (psalm 116:1) he heard my moans, he listened as I wept, he felt the heaviness of my empty life. "And he answered by setting me free" (psalm 118:5) he answered by breaking the chains of my humanness, he answered by loving me perfectly.

There is nothing remotely good within me but Christ.
