One of the very popular questions a Christian will ask themself is, "am I enough for God?" And not just for God, but enough for their spouse or friends or family members. Am I doing enough? Do I show enough gratitude? See, I can't help but assume that most of my relationships are conditional. Scratch my back and I'll scratch yours.
The only source of unconditional love I've experienced up until being saved was from my mother. Sure, that makes sense. Though, it's so difficult to accept ANYONE else loving me like my own mother loves me, nevermind loving me infinitely more which blows my freaking mind!
Day after day, but especially today, God has shown me that He loves me NO MATTER WHAT. He is in constant pursuit of me and my heart. God pursues me like a sinless man pursues his harlot bride who has lied, stolen and cheated. A harlot who's ashamed and broken. I'm that sinful, broken harlot. And God, THE GOD of the universe, wants me! He knows me so intimately and loves me unconditionally. He doesn't care what I've done because I'm forgiven by the blood of Christ. In His eyes, I'm pure. I'm His beloved. And I can't explain how amazingly refreshing and soothing that feels. The God of the universe is madly in love with me and pursues me. Trying to understand that leaves me speechless.
I am enough for God. I don't have to scratch His back for His love. I am His son, and He would go to the ends of the universe to have me. I am enough. 🙂
