I am enough

 For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.

—Romans 8:38-39

 

Today there is a lot of focus on our mental health.

Some of us have gone through rough patches that leave us believing that we are not worthy of love, much less the love of an almighty Father.

You are enough. 
A few years back I was attending a Bible study where the leader had us find verse that show us how much God loves us, if this verse doesn’t show us we are loved, well, I am not sure what else to say.

Nothing could keep Jesus from coming to save me.

No distance between heaven and earth, not a maniacal king who sought to snuff out His life, not jeering mobs crying “crucify him”, not disciples that abandoned Him, not soldiers that mocked Him, not a whip that raked His flesh, and not a cross that claimed His physical life.

Not one thing stopped Jesus from saving us.

Not one thing.

You are enough.

We will never be in control of our life circumstances, but if we fully trust in Him we will find that we are more relaxed, more at peace.

Oddly enough, this verse says nothing about trust.

Read it again: 
For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.

Nothing, absolutely nothing can separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus.

Trust that He will keep you safe.

Because of Jesus' sacrifice, we can know we won't have to ever be separated from God's love.

You ARE enough.
