You are enough

You are enough

There is a phrase I have been sitting with in my quiet moments this Christmas:

You are enough. 

The words are from writer Tosha Silver who recently shared on her Facebook page:
“The innermost heart says, ‘You are enough. Nowhere to go, nothing to get, nothing to change. No need to grow more deserving. You, yes You, are Love.’”

You are love and you are enough. (Notice that the word is “love,” not “loved.”)

Imagine for a moment that right here, right now, exactly as you are, you are love and light in our tumultuous world. In your brokenness, in your tiredness, in your mourning, in your joy, in your delight, and in the messiness of presents and wrapping paper and leftover Christmas dinner strewn around your house, you are love and you are enough.

This Christmas season and in these concluding days of the year, I invite you to rest with me in the light of the Word made flesh (John 1:14) and to feel love, to be love, and to know that you are enough.
