He Is Enough

Yesterday, I traveled across the country to beautiful North Carolina to attend my first-ever writer’s/speaker’s conference: She Speaks. From everything I’ve been hearing, it is a wonderful conference imparting a wealth of information, love and encouragement.

The conference hasn’t even started yet, and I’ve met some beautiful new friends who love the Lord and feel His calling on their lives. In fact, I met my first new friend in Chicago while waiting to catch my final flight–how fun!

There is a theme a noticed with all these ladies: they all have stories (of course, or why would they be here), and they’ve found God sufficient in those times of pain and hardship.

Today, we will have suffering, but tomorrow a new day is dawning where our tears will be wiped away. But even in the today. Even in the suffering, we are promised, and these sweet women I’m meeting are attesting to the fact, that there is hope.

No matter what we experience (including meeting publishers at a conference where we feel unsure of God’s direction), we will find Him enough.

If I take away nothing else from this conference but that reminder: it is enough for He is exceedingly enough!

“My grace is sufficient for you, for power is perfected in weakness.” (2 Corinthians 12:9 HCSB).
