He is Enough - Dayenu
Weary, worn, dirty...grieving from sin - my sin. I am not the victim, the offended. I am the offender the perpetrator.I didn't die to self, not today. I dug in my heels. I want to be more like Him, I really do. It's so easy to want to do what comes easy. Give into self. Trust myself, give into the flesh, the mind. Say those words ...those easy words. I did, Lord. I said them. That tone, you know the one Lord. The tone of pride, the voice of self. "I will concede this... but not this. I cannot trust. I really think it would be wise if we did....but not this...." The still small voice said, "Ellen, that's not submission, that's not yielding." The strife began, set in motion, my tongue seared...the ones I love. I chose Lord - I chose me. Forgive me Lord. It is grace, mercy... His relentless grace I need. He is enough. Exceeding, abundant, lavish...the grace poured upon me, upon you...simply because we are His. It is enough...He is enough Ephesians 2:4-7...
