He is Enough


Life has a way of bringing us through the most interesting and powerful experiences that serve to teach us the most invaluable lessons that perhaps we didn't know we needed to learn; at the end of it all though we know that experiencing such a time sharpens our faith and awareness of the darkness devouring this world and its inhabitants. A recent season of my own journey awakened such a realization as this in my soul.

A soul is a highly impressionable; humans these days seem to latch onto whatever is acceptable in the world and I've noticed this especially among the youth of today.We pay mind to Satan's carefully crafted lie that who we are or what we are doing for Christ is not enough. We always want to do whatever we think will make us happy; not realizing that the life God gave us is priceless and precious; that He is enough for us; that the smallest of a life is a blessing. We forget to have appreciation for what we do have. We start to feel as if nothing is enough for us. We desire more. We question Him. We endlessly search in  the darkness for satisfaction that will never serve to permanently soothe.

We look for purpose. We look for meaning.

What do those two words really signify in this life anyway?

First of all, we need Christ to guide our lives and we must lean on Him and trust in Him for all things; including the teaching of lessons that sometimes are really tough. Tough lessons create wisdom. I like to think of God as a parent; sometimes we don't make the best decisions and He knows what will happen, but He lets us find out on our own; He allows us to experience growing pains; the seeds of deeper faith & trust in Him.

The same is true for every soul. If you don't know Christ as your personal Savior, I encourage you to trust in Him today. The walk of faith is not easy, but you too can experience having a friend like no other. One that will guide you and love you every step of the way. One that will give you joy abundantly. 

 Don't fall for Satan's convincing deceit. He cannot give you the everlasting peace in which God can. His only intention is to steal your joy and to kill your spirit. There's no purpose to be found in the darkness of this world. No real meaning. 

 Remember, He is enough. 

 "The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly." 

 John 10:10 King James Version

The Source of Everlasting Strength

"Life may try to weigh you down, but never let it wear you out." I love that the Lord placed that particular phrase on my heart while thinking about how certain circumstances in our lives can become truly overwhelming. I never enjoy shining a light on all that I face physically, but I will today because it fits well within the message.  Many of you may remember that I experienced COVID last September; as a result, I have dealt with lasting fatigue that carries no reasonable medical explanation, although I am absolutely certain that  living with both cerebral palsy and PCOS may play a significant role. It's now difficult to exert any amount of energy at all. Completing even the tiniest of tasks often feels the same as climbing Mount Everest. Some of those days it seems as if everything weighs me down and wears me out. (writing honestly) I know many who struggle with SO much more than I do. I know I'm never alone in that battle. Maybe you're experiencing one of thos...

Molly's Morning Thoughts: Are You Inviting Jesus In Or Shutting Him Out?

  A Word From Molly : I'm a little late on sharing a thought from yesterday morning but I couldn't go without giving it a place on the blog. I love that the Lord put this on my heart to write because it is SO true. I may turn this into a new blog segment, we shall see, but I hope this speaks to your heart as much as it did mine. Molly's Zone will celebrate its 10th birthday on Monday and I still feel so blessed to have the opportunity to write for Jesus. Molly's Zone has been a little quiet (life has been quite interesting lately) but I cannot wait to share more all throughout the month of September.  I woke up early this morning thinking about something that the Lord placed on my heart I LOVE podcasts & decided to try something new on Spotify the other day & listened to an episode about God's power in the midst of impossible situations and it got me wondering: How often are we guilty of attempting to take on a situation that is too much for us to handl...

Things To Remember When You Feel Like Quitting On God

Having the opportunity to serve the Lord through writing faith-based short stories and devotionals will forever be my greatest joy.  I have traveled along on the writing journey for about ten years now, yet it would be untruthful to tell you that I've never felt like quitting.  I know I have.  Have you ever felt that way? Are you in a season of distraction or discouragement?  The Lord placed this thought and those questions on my heart because I know that many others who remain faithful in serving the Lord in their own respective way are met with same opposition from Satan.  Sometimes it's difficult for you not to feel distracted and discouraged---as if the joy that you once held in your heart is somehow nowhere to be found. The good news is that while opposition will never go away on this side of Heaven, there are things to remember and tools that we can use to fight off those fiery darts and keep on keepin' on! (One of my all time favorite phrases) Today, I wa...
