Plate Full

It baffles me how i can have so much that i am doing and still think it is not enough.

is it overachieving or just not fulfilling?

not being aware that my plate is full

way more than full.

it is overflowing with God’s grace , goodness, kindness and mercy

yet i am searching for more.

why is this?

why is it that our hearts can have everything and feel like we have nothing?

how can a woman look at her closet full of clothes and still go on a shopping spree and say she has nothing to wear?

oh i get it.

we want to control.

we want to control every aspect of every outcome.

we want everything at our finger tips, at our beck and call.

has society made us this way?

always throwing something new in our faces and telling us we have to have it.

is anyone content?

is anyone ok with just living with what they have or do they think they need more?

why would a man cheat when he has a beautiful wife and three kids at home?

losing everything to gain what we don’t need is a high price to pay.

we are so full we can’t tell ourselves when to stop even though we know we are about to explode.

reality has to slap us in the face.

we wake up and realize we’ve gone to far and have to begin again.

begin again.

this time with Jesus.

his cup runnneth over and you are full of peace and grace.

Let him be the one who keeps you full.

if you are gonna overflow with anything, let it be God’s grace.
