More than enough

Today my goal is to view everything I have as "more than enough". In the wake of the Haiti disaster, I do not want to feel guilty about being a privileged American, but instead view my blessing as a gift, be thankful for them all, and know I have more than enough (material things).

The only thing I want more of is God. I pray that He will shake me up and reveal what is not of Him in me and replace it with a desire to know Him more. I am reading Lisa TerKeurst's book, "Becoming More Than a Good Bible Study Girl", and have been challenged with seeking God more than I do. It sounds easy enough, but life gets in the way...kids get in the way...laundry gets in the way...you know the feeling???

So, today, I have more than enough of everything...but The Lord.

"Then you will call upon Me and come and pray to Me, and I will listen to you. You will seek Me and find Me when you seek Me with all your heart. I will be found by you, declares the Lord and will bring you back from captivity." Jeremiah 29:12-14

The with all my heart is the key here. This is my struggle. I will be working on it.
