Is it really enough???

I found this on one of my teenager's myspace blog. WOW! Kelly rocks my face off! Inspiring! I wish I would have thought even half this mature as a High School Freshman!

Is it really enough?
Current mood: inspired

How many times have we told God that he is all that we need? To think about it, we say it quite often. And to be honest, our actions and words don't back up this statement. We say your grace is enough, but we also say that we can't live a week without our ipods, mp3s, cable, and internet services. If he is all we really need, why isn't he number one in our priorities? I remember when we were little that TV didn't matter, and there wasn't a CD player in our house. Internet services were only Dial-up, no bluetooth to be found. We survived without all the technology, and made it just fine. I'm not saying that technology is a bad thing, nor am I saying that it is the only thing that gets in the way of our relationship with Jesus Christ. Other things we can't seem to live without is Drama, Sports, Friends, etc. These things get into our way and we love them so much, we make them our top priorities.

School work is what gets in my way sometimes, It makes it to my number two sometimes, and it is always in my top ten. I stay up till ten o'clock doing homework, but I don't think you'll ever see me stay up that latae talking to God. Now what's up with that?

And it's not just me. I'm sure you do to, and if you think you don't, you're probably not being that honest with yourself. What if our situations is worse than jsut being bored? Say that your food is limited to one or two meals a week, and when you do have food, it tastes like garbabge. Also, your water comes from a well that you don't know if it tainted or not, and your bed is made of lice infested hay. Would you still thank God for the many blessings you have, or would you hold self-pity against yourself? Could you say that his grace is enough for you then? Oh, it is so easy to do it now, you hypocrite. You claim that you still would and then go against what you say when life hits a dry spell.

Has the Lord your God, who led the Isrealites out of the desert safety, not been good to you? Has he not blessed you beyond what any man could ever ask for? And why do you bring forth a wounded unworthy sacrifice before the Lord, when you have a strong acceptable male in your flock? Now you tell me, is his love not enough for you? Is it really enough....
