Never Enough

How many times have you said, “If I could just make more money” or “If I could just get that new [whatever]” – then – then I will be happy? I have said this my entire life. And it has driven me to accomplish quite a bit. I would even say it has consumed me for most of my life. But I am probably not alone in realizing that – getting that next best thing – or making that money… none of it is ever enough. There is always another goal right around the corner. I am beginning to realize that no matter how much I earn or obtain – it will never be enough. Earthly abundance will never be enough. Let me say it this way – earthly abundance will never be enough on its own. Without spiritual connection and growth, no amount of earthly hard work will ever produce a sustainable satisfaction or contentment. Even if your cup runneth over, without God it will soon feel empty. You can be rich by the world’s standards and will feel poor without a relationship with God.

And here is the even greater truth: Even the emptiest of cup feels full when God is in the center. A strong and real relationship with God will fill every gap. You can be poor by the world’s standards and feel rich with just a healthy relationship with God. Because you have His promise of a great inheritance.
