“And may you have the power to understand, as all God’s people should, how wide, how long, how high, and how deep His love is.” (Ephesians 3:18)
We must be careful of what and who we place our trust in. Misplaced affections can so easily be turned into the sin of idol worship and pride, causing us to long after things that are imperfect. Oh how the enemy longs to turn our affections away from God and place our hope in people or things that cannot satisfy, or love us in return, let alone save us. If the enemy ever tries to convince us that God’s love is not enough, let us remember that no human being, not nothing, not nobody, can fill that void. Only the flesh craves the imperfect after the heart and soul has come to know that: “Love is patient and kind. Love is not jealous or boastful or proud or rude. It does not demand its own way. It is not irritable, and it keeps no record of being wronged. It does not rejoice about injustice but rejoices whenever the truth wins out. Love never gives up, never loses faith, is always hopeful, and endures through every circumstance. (1 Corinthians 13:4-7) “Can you imagine being loved like this? It would change your life. You would want for nothing.” When will we learn that God Is Enough? Once we accept this truth we can stop looking for people and things to fill that void, or give us what God has already provided.

Great devotional Gigi! I need to start the day off instead of in the evening. Throughout the day is when it would profit me the most at work😊
