Pursue Joy.

This morning I woke up and looked at my phone and continued on to social media.

It's a normal thing for people to do now days but by the time  I got out of bed and sat down with my Bible and journal, my mind was so full of political memes and comments, adorable puppies, wipe out videos, and friends thoughts that I was struggling to focus on what I was writing to God.

What do we put first in our lives?
Who do we place value on?
How do we show it?

Just some questions I started pondering as I made breakfast.

Go be intentional.

.Response.

My sister read my last blog and emailed me a response.

It helped to hear truth but it's also hard to receive it. 

Anyway. 

Here it is.

I feel like that, too

Sometimes.

Truth is,

we are all

Too Much

for ourselves,

for one another,

but not for Love.

We are not too much for Love.

Love bears all things.

I wish I could be

Too Much Love

but I will just keep trying 

my best

to give

what I have

to Love

and let that be enough.

Because God never says,

"You are too much." 

Instead, God says,

"My child,

you are enough."

Enough to love.

Enough to enjoy.

Enough to appreciate.

Enough to celebrate.

Enough to sing over.

Enough to pray for.

Enough to hold on with.

Enough to stay for.
