AWESOMENESS

"For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also."
- Matthew 6:21

how could anyone ever put anything before God? that's the way i always thought, but then now i understand that it's really not as "crazy" as it sounds. in many ways, i am guilty of doing just that: occasionally placing friendships, school, and other "stuff" before God on my priority list. while all these things are important, God should always have the best of my time.

yesterday at cbs, we had a concert of prayer. it was definitely amazing to be able to praise and worship God as one body in Christ. everything just reminded me of summer and camp challenge. i know it shouldn't have anything to do with it, but lately ive been searching and longing for some sort of spark in my spiritual life. i've been in a sort of slump lately, and even while praying more and asking people to pray for me, it seems like there was still this hole in my heart that could only be filled by a feeling of God's presence in my life. the monotony seemed to last months, separated only by an occasional sign of life.

then we sang this song.

Enough
- Chris Tomlin

All of You is more than enough for
All of me
For every thirst and every need
You satisfy me with Your love
And all I have in You is more than enough

You are my supply
My breath of life
And still more awesome than I know
You are my reward
Worth living for
And still more awesome than I know

You’re my sacrifice
Of greatest price
And still more awesome than I know
You’re the coming King
You are everything
And still more awesome than I know
More than all I want
More than all I need
You are more than enough for me
More than all I know
More than all I can see
You are more than enough


my faith is so much more than a few sporadic spiritual highs. when it all comes down to it, God is truly "more than all i want, more than all i need." and the most AWESOME part is just realizing that even after 11 or so years of being a Christian and learning more and more and growing closer and closer to God, He is STILL MORE AWESOME THAN I KNOW. isn't that just mind-boggling?!

He is more than enough.
