God, I hear You calling.
You whisper, “It is enough—for now, and always.”
Why then do I keep striving for more from a world that offers only limits?
Why do I chase things that promise fulfillment but fade the moment they arrive—
money, attention, approval, the longing to be anywhere but here?
Why do I want more of the more that never satisfies?
Is it the voice of the enemy that tells me I am not enough?
That completion is always just beyond my reach—
a better life, a better version of myself, more money, more recognition,
some future existence that never actually comes?
Like a donkey chasing a carrot tied to a stick,
I run toward an illusion—
a cruel promise that one day will be enough,
yet one day never arrives.
But then I pause, O Lord.
And I see Your work.
Everything is already here.
Complete.
Held together by Your Word.
Existence itself is the miracle.
Peace has already been promised.
Your glory surrounds me in ways my mind cannot comprehend.
Even the sun—
giving warmth, light, and life—
stands in its place simply because You said so.
So slow me down, God.
Draw me back to my soul—the part of me that never rushes, never lacks, never moves.
Psalm 23:1–3 —
“The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want. He makes me lie down in green pastures. He leads me beside still waters. He restores my soul.”
Let my eternal spirit rest in what is already true:
That You love me.
That Your presence is enough.
That being with You is more than I could ever imagine.
God, let it be enough.
