Always enough

“I needed a bar of soap.  God gave me a bottle of body wash.” – Jack Lee

I don’t like this feeling.  Feeling of lacking money, feeling of not being able to pay my bills, feeling of poverty.  My God is good; He is always wealthy; He has always had more than enough.  I covered myself with a blanket, not wanting to get up from my bed because I have to deal with my own weak feeling of lacking.  El Shaddai, my Lord, You have always provided my family and me with plenty, but I am tired (or sick) of being lacking.  I need a bottle of body wash again!  You’ve provided us; please do it again.  Two days, we are running on empty, actually negative.  You told us to give; we gave till we ran out.  This is not an easy lesson.

As I told You, I am going back to the marketplace; I am looking for a job now, whether You agree or not.  C’mon, You know everything.  I am not gonna hide my feelings, but I am running dry now, God.  I will look for a “better pay” job.  If You want me to stay in the full-time ministry, You grow this church!  We are NOT growing, and I hate it!  Stop wasting my time!!!  Maybe You will close all the doors, but I will still do it… I will knock on the doors!

You always provided enough… but this time, I need more than enough.

More enough… always enough… El Shaddai.
