The most important thing to remember is that God loves you, and nothing can change that. This love is the foundation for everything else. From this place of security, consider these questions:

1. What is God asking of you right now? Be honest with yourself about whether you're being fully obedient - not giving a penny more (trying to make things happen in your own power) or a penny less (not trusting God fully).
2. Are you presenting yourself as more committed than you actually are? Remember, this isn't about impressing others but about your heart position before God.
3. Are you missing the joy of participation? Like the Ephraimites who flooded down to help, or like Succoth who refused, your response determines your experience of God's work.
4. What would it look like to be "all in" with what God is doing? Not out of obligation, but out of love and trust in a God who has proven faithful.

This week, commit to being honest with God about where you are. If you've been holding back, remember that His grace is sufficient. If you've been trying to do too much in your own strength, rest in His power. The goal isn't perfection but participation - joining God in what He's already doing, with a heart fully surrendered to Him.
