Christ is Enough for Me



Christ is enough for me.

Indeed He is.

But in saying that He is enough for me, do I know what He is giving to me?

Do I know Him fully? 

Who is He who can fill our life?  

Who is He who can fill our emptiness?

Who is He who brings love to us?  

Who is He who lights our path?

Who is He who gave His life for me? 

Christ is calling us to spend time with Him. Listen to His words. Read His words.  And more importantly to live His words.

His love, His grace, His light is available to us. The action needed from us is to take it.  Let us receive Christ in our life.

Just like the food that nourishes our physical body, we have to take and chew. We set aside time to eat. Otherwise, we may get malnourished or worst we die.

We may have known Christ for some time, but we have to be continuously nourished by His love and His presence. Otherwise, we get strayed. Our light dims. 

His grace is overflowing. Let us take what Christ is giving to us. 

Let us fill ourselves with Christ - so much that everything we receive from Him we can share with others who may be filled by Him too. Then they too can say, "Christ is enough for me."

Allow God to Fill Your Cup

I have just attended a retreat entitled "GOD WILL MAKE ALL THINGS NEW" by Bo Sanchez.

I would like to share some thoughts with you.

As the image says, the usefulness of a cup is in its emptiness...

This Lenten Season, empty yourself out to God and let Him fill you with His greatness.

Let go of your past sins and guilt, your addiction, your selfishness, your being a mediocre... empty yourself from whatever burdens you are carrying... from whatever is stopping you from growing... from whatever is blinding you from seeing that God is here... God has always been with you...

Let God fill you... do not be afraid to be empty... to have nothing... because in the end, God is all you need.
