"You're Enough"

Yesterday as I was organizing a binder filled with things I have written, I came across a poem that I wrote a year and a half ago. It was a poem among many from the last year or so still waiting to be filed away, but the title of this particular one caught my eye: "You're Enough". In the last couple of weeks, circumstances both around and within me have brought me to a place of needing to be reminded of the truth that no matter what I am facing, Jesus is enough. His love is enough. His grace is enough. HE is enough. It was true over a year ago when I wrote the poem. It's true today. And it will always be true because He never changes! How thankful I am that God so graciously reminds me of His faithfulness to be all that I need!

"You're Enough"

You're enough when I am hurting
Enough when I'm afraid
You're enough when I'm regretting
Choices that I've made
In every situation
No matter what life brings
Jesus, You're enough in everything

You're enough when I am lonely
Enough when I am weak
You're enough when I'm not able
To find all that I seek
Today and each tomorrow
In the days still yet to be
Jesus, You're enough for all of me

You're enough when I am empty
Enough when I'm alone
You're enough when I'm discouraged
By the troubles that I've known
Every step of this journey
Wherever You may lead
Jesus, You're enough for what I need

J.A.P. (2008)
