The Beautiful Life

Making Room

As we’ve been cutting back and learning to live on less, I’ve been expecting it to be hard. And sometimes it is. I can’t just go out and buy anything I want anymore. I have to say “no.” I was prepared for that. What I wasn’t prepared for were the ways that God would continually surprise me by stepping in and giving me whatever I had thought I was going to have to do without. I thought I was just putting our family on a budget, but what I was really doing was making room for God to move in my life and for me to be humble enough to see it happen. In this living without, I am learning that God is more than enough. In the big, scary, life-changing moments, He is more than enough. In the day to day struggles, He is more than enough. In good times and bad, in sickness and in health, until He returns or calls me home. How He loves me.
