Jesus is more than enough and yet we can never get enough of Him. At least we can never come to the place where we think we have enough. Funny isn’t it, how we never really have enough things, but we can somehow decide we have enough Jesus.
Think about it. How many times do we acknowledge that we have enough stuff or even too much stuff; do we stop getting stuff? Storage units are everywhere. We have filled up everything and then still rent storage places. I have an enclosed trailer that is mostly a storage unit on wheels! I have nothing against stuff; I am just saying that within us is a desire to accumulate. Every one accumulates something because we have a desire for more. Even if we say we don’t, we do!
This morning as I spent time with God, as usual there was clutter in my mind that distracted me until I attacked the clutter. Then I found myself talking to God and asking the same things that I asked way back when I first came to know Him. Here 32 years later my deepest need is the same as it was then. I just need more of Him. I thought about the hours I spent sprawled on the long shag carpet in the original living room and how the laminated wood is just not the same for curling up and sticking your face in. The shag was gone, but God was not. The shag was gone but my longing was not. I was so glad about that!
There is no such thing as enough of Jesus. There is no such thing and knowing God well enough. There is no such thing as too much Holy Spirit. There is no limit to how much He has provided. And understand this, it is not the provision that is the big deal; it is the provider. It is only in never having enough of Him that we can be content with what He provides.
In Christ, He has given us access to everything; only everything is nothing without the main thing. That is why even if we accumulate everything we still feel like we have nothing if we don’t have the main thing.
There is something special about realizing that you are lonely for Jesus. Once early on, I was so busy doing the Jesus work that just felt strange and having never been in that place before I could not figure it out. As I sought the Lord I realized I was just lonely for Him, so I stopped everything else for a bit to sit at His feet and learn from Him what was going on. Since then, I have done my best to not get in that same predicament.
Truly, nothing satisfies like Jesus. There is always more Jesus than we know. If we allow knowing Him more to be the thing we want most, we will find that He is more than enough and has more than enough and then we will have more than enough to show people that Jesus is more than enough and we will be able to say enough, to all those things that try to keep us from Him.
