Some days, this world can leave us running on empty.
In fact, most days, I reach the end of the day feeling like I have absolutely nothing left to offer, can you relate?
Or perhaps you are in a season of life where you wake up, and before your feet even hit the floor, you already feel empty?
Take a listen as Sarah explains why it is STILL valuable to bring your empty hands before the Lord and offer your seemingly insignificant to a BIG God.
OUTLINE:
#1 God asks us to offer our "not enough" so that He can Multiply.
20 Now to him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to his power that is at work within us, 21 to him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations, forever and ever! Amen. Ephesians 3:20-21
#2 God asks us to offer our "not enough" so that our FAITH can grow.
5 When Jesus looked up and saw a great crowd coming toward him, he said to Philip, “Where shall we buy bread for these people to eat?” 6 He asked this only to test him, for he already had in mind what he was going to do.
John 6:5-6
#3 God asks us to bring our "not enough" so that He can fill our empty places.
8 Let them give thanks to the Lord for his unfailing love and his wonderful deeds for mankind, 9 for he satisfies the thirsty and fills the hungry with good things. Psalm 107:8-9

I love your perspective on being not enough. The world tells us we are enough on our own, but in Christ, we are able to embrace not being enough and God welcomes us, uplifts us, and works in us. When I admit im not enough, I seek God first!
Honestly, I think I see God more often when I sense how empty I really am! Thank you for such great thoughts!
