Five Minute Friday: Enough


Every Friday hundreds of women around the globe, look forward to "THE WORD".
1. Write for 5 minutes flat – no editing, no over thinking, no backtracking.
2. Link back here and invite others to join in.
3. And then absolutely, no ifs, ands or buts about it, you need to visit the person who linked up before you & encourage them in their comments. Seriously. That is, like, the rule. And the fun. And the heart of this community..
So, set your timer, clear your head, for five minutes of free writing without worrying about getting it right.
What's the buzz word?


ENOUGH


Go....
I had the gift of waking up this morning, sun in my face and even better, two boys on either side, snuggled in. Isn't that enough?


The gift of family, friends, a comfortable home and the overflowing love from her heavenly Father. What more does a girl need?


But....
There is always wants and needs. The two getting blurred more times than one can count.
A bigger house, A Pinterest perfect house.
More money.
Better image of oneself.
More time.
Orderly obedient kids.
A husband who brings flowers everyday.
A magic machine  to whizz up our daily dinner.


What I wouldn't mind more of is the constant burning desire to be in His presence, the dedication to meet up with Him first thing in the morning. Wisdom to me on my tongue. Christ like love to show and share to another.
Now that would be enough .


Stop.

  1. Our human nature can be a beast can't it? I SO identify with you. When I get too far into this cycle I pray for God to increase my desire for Him and He always does.

    Enjoyed your post!
