YOU ARE ENOUGH

“You don’t have to see the whole staircase, just take the first step.” Martin Luther King, Jr. 

A lot of times we think we are not enough. We think to ourselves we do not have the right education, talents, resources, or money. Who am I to think big? Who am I to dream big? But I say to you,  Who are you not to?

God has already given each of us exactly what we need. The key is to start with what you have, right where you are, take the first step and watch God multiply and guide you step by step. As you take one step, God will show you the next, and the next, and the next. He will guide you to the place that He has for you. You must believe that you are enough and that you deserve the blessings that He has for you.                 

Past/Present                             Doesn’t matter

Education/No Education         Doesn’t matter

Kids/No Kids                            Doesn’t matter

Married/Single/Divorced          Doesn’t matter

None of these things matter in God’s eyes. The only thing that matters is your ability to walk into what He has for you.

I grew up in a trailer in a very small town with a population of less than 1,000 people. As I write this message, I ask myself who am I to write this? Who am I to tell anyone what to do? Trust me, I have tried to hide from this for over 10 years and God will not let me rest. I tried to run, skip, hide, turn away but here I am. I finally understand that this is the assignment that God has on my life and that my life nor His Will for my life will be complete if I’m not obedient to what He has called me to do.

Am I scared? Absolutely. But each day I ask myself what is on the other side of my obedience? God must have something great on the other side and I want to see what it is. When my day comes, I want Him to say, “My good and faithful servant, Well done!”

It doesn't matter how many degrees or work experience I have I have never felt prepared enough to do what He has asked me to do. Yet here I am trusting Him every step of the way and I am asking you to do the same.

Is there something that God is asking you to do that you are scared to do?

Is there something deep inside that you just cannot shake?

Do you feel like you are not qualified?

Do you feel like it will not work? Or Are you afraid that it will work?

Remember this, God has given you everything you need to succeed. Take the first step.

You are enough.
