You Are Complete In Jesus

There are way too many women that look to the men in their lives to complete them. Colossians 2:10 says, "and you are complete in Him, who is the head of all principality and power." When God created you, He gave you everything that you need to succeed in having a relationship with Him. Throughout the entire Bible we are taught that we have the fullness of God within each of us.

His grace is sufficient and God does not give us more than what we can handle as long as we continue to obey his word at all times, regardless of the situation or circumstance. When we believe that we need a man to complete us as women, it is telling God that he made a mistake. Isaiah 55:11 says, So shall my word be that goes forth from My mouth; it shall not return to me void. But it shall prosper in the thing for which I sent it."

Often times, the same words that are used to describe the Holy Spirit are also used to describe who God created us to be. We are to have the likeness and image of Jesus shining through us.

When we were created, we were complete in Jesus. Never rely on any man to complete who you are in the eyes of Christ Jesus. In 2 Corinthians 12:2 says, "My grace is sufficient for you, for My strength is made perfect in weakness." When you are feeling weak, run to God because He will give you the grace and the strength that you need. When that happens you can give God the glory and know that He is. Let God be your strength and know that you are complete in Jesus.
