When enough isn't

Mark 10:17-21

When is good, good enough? We are never satisfied it seems.

The this guy approaches Jesus with a great question. He seems to look for validation in his life that he was good enough. His life was driven by deeds and he looked for more deeds to validate himself.

More is better, better is more. Is that true?

Jesus tells him to go sell everything you have. Remove the things that are holding you back. Jesus was trying to free this man from the burden of his lifestyle. Jesus wanted him to free up space to truly serve God.

What do you need to subtract from your life to allow you grow closer to God?!

What does enough look like? For most of us we have an abundance of enough!

Jesus asking us to give up what we have here for something better up there!
