So, it turns out I can’t do enough.  I am a doer.  I have been accused of being a workaholic, but I have strived to improve the balance between work, play, family, and rest.

Even still, no matter how many hours I work or how much effort I put into something, it never seems to be enough.

And, you know what?  It never will be.  God designed it that way.

I can’t work enough to earn my salvation.  I can’t be enough to please everyone.  I can’t do enough to deserve anything.

Did you notice the subject of those sentences?  “I.”  I am never enough.  Thankfully, however, God IS enough.  And he always will be.

For Transformational Tuesday, my encouragement is that we remember that God is enough.  I don’t have to strive to be enough.  I can rely on his all-sufficiency – especially at times when I feel less than enough.

“For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith—and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God— not by works, so that no one can boast.” Ephesians 2:8-9
