Enough

Discovering a God Who is Enough When You're Not

by Tamyra Horst

Most people, especially women, know firsthand the battle of feeling not enough. Or too much. And sometimes both at the same time. The battle to feel good enough is real and constant. There are days when the “not enoughness” threatens to rip out your heart, discourage you, and cause you to lose hope. Give up. Surrender.

And it’s true. You are not enough. You can’t ever be enough on your own no matter how hard you try.

The real lie is that you have to be enough, that you have to make yourself be enough.

The truth is that God is enough. Join author Tamyra Horst as she leads you on a journey to discover God in your not enoughness. Find out

who defines what “enough” is,
why the enemy wants to keep us feeling inadequate,
how accepting the lie affects our relationships,
what to do when you mess up,
where to find peace with yourself, and
how to speak the truth to other women.

Experience the joy and peace and hope Jesus brings, and learn to accept that you are chosen, wanted, and accepted. Find your purpose and passion, and embrace the role God designed just for you. Because through Him, you are enough.

Enough leads the reader into a better understanding of what it means to feel like you are “not enough” and how to change this mindset. Author Tamyra Horst explains that, for many years, she understood that it was the enemy placing the feelings of being not enough into her mind. But, until she realised that in God’s eyes we are always enough, she was not able to accept a new way of looking at herself. To relax with the knowledge that God thought she was great all the time and to be able to move forward feeling like she actually was enough gave her the power and security to do great things for Him. Horst has served as a Women’s Ministries leader for more than 30 years and is an experienced speaker and author. Yet she knows firsthand the battle of not feeling good enough, growing up feeling that she was not pretty enough, not smart enough, not talented enough while at the same time feeling like she was too shy, to quiet or too sensitive. These messages bombard us even more today with the advent of social media informing us of our inadequacies. Little wonder that this is becoming more of a problem with not only adults but younger people as well. Enough looks at women in the Bible, such as Martha, and unpacks their insecurities, explaining their stories from a different angle. These women went on to do great things once they realised that they were enough in God’s eyes. There are many degrees of feeling “not enough” but these chapters guide you through the everyday issues that can arise and how, through trust in our heavenly Father, we will feel empowered enough to do things we never thought we were good enough to do. Each chapter has a promise, a prayer and thoughtful questions to help you through, which could be used for individual study or a small group—so get your friends together and see how the lessons of Enough can change your lives. —Sonia Knight, Resources Manager, Advent Media
