Just Enough

Last Thursday God led me to go to McDonald's to chill, relax, and get some writing done. This was not an easy choice for me. The Lord knows I haven't ate there for awhile for a purpose. They're like one of the WORST fast food places in my book. Not because of service and cleanliness, but the process of the food. "God are you sure? I mean,

I'm not really hungry. But I tell you what I will get. I'll get that good ol' one dollar sweet tea! Come on! Let's go!" lol.

Question: why do we always ask God is He sure, when we know it is us who aren't sure? Lol. 

Don't Judge Me

I end up getting a burger and fry and yes! That good ol' sweet tea! Now, don't judge me. I know I was just complaining about their food. I don't know what it is, but it's just something when you step in and you're taste buds go down memory lane. I talked myself into it lol. 

Caught By Attention 

As I sat down and fininshed my food, the writing began. Then it ended. Filled with His peace and contemplating if I should get another large cup of sweet tea, a stranger caught my eye. Didn't think anything of it. Until I realized he had handful of store bags with things. I immediately knew he was walking or waiting for the bus, or so I thought. But I did feel to ask if he needed a ride. Before I asked, I doubted that God was even leading me and went to the bathroom asking God to confirm. That He did. The guy kept starring at me and looking away. This is odd. Ok God, I got it. Thanks! Lol 

The Meeting

I asked him if he needed a ride and he said he had nowhere to go. God was really hitting my heart for him. And to my amazement I didn't have much to say. 1, because I couldn't relate to what He was going through, and 2 maybe he just needed someone to listen. God was giving me words to speak to the young man, but deeply rooted was hurt and lost, though he believed God, his view was off. Lord led me to pray with him He rejected the ride 2x of course lol, but our conversation ended.

Just Enough

As I went outside into my car I just cried for him to the Lord. At the same time beating myself up! "God what happened in there?! Normally it just flows! Did I not do what I was suppose to? Was me? Was it his disbelief? Godddd?!" He reminded me of the verse: some plant, some water, BUT GOD GIVES THE INCREASE! He simply stated,  "Jennifer, you've done just enough. You planted a seed into ---'s life today. A seed of hope and a seed of faith. A seed of love and a seed of perserverance. You've done just enough. But, you can STILL help him by STILL praying for him." I began to pray for him of all the words that I wantes to say but couldn't come out at that time. I began to pray on his behalf. I began to pray for God's people in his path. Not only did I prayed, but I worshiped and praised God for his behalf. For we know our praise and worship can shift things around in our atmospheres. 

The Take Away

Sometimes we may find ourselves doubting the very thing the Lord has done through our lives. Our worth or someone being touched by God is not valued by how well we did something, but that we were an open willing vessel to be used by God in any shape or form. The enemy will lie to you saying you didn't do enough and the blood is on your hands. We have to remember the devil is a lie! And that we are only to do what God lead us to do leaving ALL the results up to God! Even if we ourselves don't see the results with our own eyes, we have to trust that God is able and just to do what only HE can do! Salvation! However, we can always go the extra step if we choose to! I just want to encourage you guys that whatever God leads you to do, know that you have done a good thing and it was just enough!
