If you have been following the movie fanatics you have most likely seen the movie, "The Greatest Showman."If you haven't seen it, you need to! There is an iconic opera song (personally my favorite) in the movie titled "Never Enough." You probably won't appreciate it unless you go see it in the movies, but go ahead and take a listen. At one point the song goes,

These hands could hold the world but it'll
Never be enough
Never be enough, for me.

You leave this song broken because deep down a lot of the people in this world are longing for this world to be enough, for them to be enough, for this life to be fulfilling, to find peace and happiness.

And I am here to tell you, it will never be enough.

My friend once told me they just wanted to get to the point where they woke up with a genuine satisfaction, a satisfaction that you don't have to search for. I couldn't help but think, what an impossible task. I'm not sure it's possible to ever wake up like that because we are not of this world. This world is too ugly to find that in. This world will never be enough.

So I went searching, searching for why this world is not enough, why we will never feel enough, why satisfaction is so hard to find in this life. Although I knew it was because of my faith in God, I needed to find the evidence.

I came across a passage in John 17 where Jesus prays for his disciples saying,

"I am coming to you now, but I say these things while I am still in the world, so that they may have the full measure of joy within them. I have given them your word and the world has hated them, for they are not of the world any more than I am of the world. My prayer is not that you take them out of the world, but that you protect them from the evil one. They are not of the world, even as I am not of it."

I was floored. To think of Jesus talking to his dad about the disciples as his dearest friends is so sweet.

Twice he mentions that they are not of this world, no more than he is. I think that is so important to take with us. If you believe in God, it's important to know that this world will never be enough for you because you are not of this world. You will not find your fit, or have immense satisfaction on earth. Maybe it sounds negative, but I find it neat.

Also, look at how Jesus asks God to protect his friends. I do this so often with my friends, and it warms my heart to see that Jesus did this too.

I want you to remember this, that when you are wrestling with problems in this life, you aren't even of this world. So stop trying to wake up and feel satisfied, stop thinking that doing enough of this or that will fill your heart because you will fail.

Once you have heard and seen the power of Jesus, everything else will simply never be enough.
