    God is Enough

    Monday, December 15, 2014

    I want to share a devotional out of the “Jesus Calling” devotional from back in November that I felt was worth repeating and us taking another look.

    WORSHIP ME in the beauty of holiness. All true beauty reflects some of who I am. I am working My ways in you: the divine Artist creating loveliness within your being. My main work is to clear out debris and clutter, making room for My Spirit to take full possession. Collaborate with Me in this effort by being willing to let go of anything I choose to take away. I know what you need, and I have promised to provide all of that—abundantly!

    Your sense of security must not rest in your possessions or in things going your way. I am training you to depend on Me alone, finding fulfillment in My Presence. This entails being satisfied with much or with little, accepting either as My will for the moment. Instead of grasping and controlling, you are learning to release and receive. Cultivate this receptive stance by trusting Me in every situation.

    I know this is hard for us to do, especially as women when we need security. But our security needs to remain in Him!

    Help us continue providing resources of care for pastors and their families.
