Enough?

When is it, my friends, that you know you have had enough? What is enough? Connie made some great Fajita’s today for dinner and I devoured two of them puppies, like now. It was enough…. Or was it? A couple of hours later I needed two, ok make that four, cookies. I thought the fajitas from the hand of an angel were enough? Why is “enough” so based on condition? Enough is rarely ENOUGH when it come to us humans. There always seems to be room for more dissatisfaction. We have enormous capacity for discontent.

Throw God into the mix. He is supposed to be the end of desire, the answer, the only piece that fills the empty hole in our lives, in short, enough. God is supposed to be enough! Where my, and perhaps our, struggle lies is that we are so absolutely dependant. Everyday we need to find our fill in him. Every breath we draw is because of him. I play at this following Jesus thing way too much. Some days I am frustrated with all of my shortsightedness and simple desertion. Other days I am eying up the big screen HD/LCD TV’s at Sam’s Club. (Now I don’t want you to think that I am picking on you for having one, I am not, but my 32” old tube TV works just fine, so why the discontent?)

“The heart is deceitful above all things and beyond cure. Who can understand it?” _{Jeremiah 17:9} and that deceit runs very deep. Enough Already!

Well That Was Fun

Mexico, as a honeymoon 25 years after the initial fact, (instead of a mission trip) was a great experience. The weather was 80-85 everyday and sunny all of the time. The sun came up over the mountains and set over the ocean. Puerto Villarta was beautiful. We did a lot of sitting by the pool and swimming and eating and eating and eating some more. It was a great time together. There is so much to tell you all. We went snorkeling, saw hump backed whales, dolphins, man-o-rays, kayaked, watched sunsets and a sunrise, read, but our main goal was to relax. We did that with great success. Thanks for everyone’s kindness and prayers that made this trip possible for Connie and I, we appreciate it so much!
