You are enough! Tell yourself that daily. Look in the mirror and say that 3 times.
Too often we get lost on what the world wants for us and lose sight of what God wants for us.
We try to find outlets in food, sex, money or even alcohol. Those things are truly only temporary and bring you false hope or give you a moment of satisfaction.
God wants the best for you and he wants you to know him and know how much he loves you.
I dreaded sharing my story for fear of what others thought. I know my life decisions have not been the best, I use to use the excuse of well God will forgive me so why not? Yeah I know, pretty crazy right??
The truth is, your past does not define you as the person you are today. NO decision you have made before this moment matters. You have the choice to change everything you were used to doing. You can say right now, my past is over and I choose to live life with a different outlook.
I have learned a few things along the way of making my mistakes:
- there will never be another you
- you are different; thats perfectly fine
- only you can offer what you have
- you do matter no matter what someone else thinks of you
- time heals only if you decide not to dwell in your past
- WE ALL MAKE MISTAKES
- learn from what you’ve done
- never allow your emotions to cloud your judgement
Tell yourself today that you are no longer the person you were and you will step into today with a positive mind set, focusing on your blessings and giving no attention to the negativity. Tell yourself you are more than enough and can conquer anything with God right there with you.
I encourage everyone to share their story, someone needs to hear it.
Blessings.
Sometimes you need to hear “You Are Enough” because we feel like failures sometimes. As long as I’m doing the best that I can, “I am enough.” Nothing on this Earth can fill our voids the way God can!

Amen to that! I like to think of mistakes this way: No one thinks twice about a child that gives you a horrible scribble of a picture. If a child offers you a picture the drew, you smile and say thank you with enthusiasm because you know and understand, the time and effort it took for them to make it. It isn’t the outcome you care about. The same happens with Jesus. We offer him our poor attempts and He smiles and thanks us with enthusiasm.
