All Because of Him
Encountering Jesus in the past year has built this new way for me, this new path to knowing Him better and living in His strength and abundant grace and letting the Spirit work through me instead of striving.
But this new way actually is coming back to old things. We come back to the simple, common graces of what it means to walk with Jesus.
I have found this pattern in Jesus’s life, one I had never fully seen before.
He says, I am the Bread of Life.He is the Bread of Life. We are not.
He says, I am the Light of the World.
He is the Light. We are not.
He says, I am the Way, the Truth.
We are not.
He is enough. We are not.
I’ve lived so thirsty because I thought I knew where the water was. I believed it was on the other side of that ever-moving thick black line of expectations that begged me to cross it, and to get there I’d have to muster up the necessary resources from within me. I was trying to be bread and light and life and enough, and I couldn’t ever seem to do it.
But what I thought was a great disappointment was actually the greatest mercy God has ever shown me. See, we rarely go to drink unless we are thirsty. To feel our thirst is one of God’s greatest gifts to us. To recognize our need for God is the beginning of our finding Him.
All we crave in abundance is in Jesus…Because Jesus is enough, we can experience true fulfillment.
Because Jesus is enough, we can live connected with Him and others.
Because Jesus is enough, we can rest.
Because Jesus is enough, we can risk for His glory.
Because Jesus is enough, we can trade fear for hope.
Because Jesus is enough, we can embrace grace.
Because Jesus is enough, we can live out our true calling.
You can choose to live in these overflowing streams of His enoughness. Will you choose Him instead of living pulled along, missing your life, unable to take a deep breath?
We cannot save ourselves. But this story has a hero.
Will you let Him save you?Rugwaro
