Living In His Sufficiency

We all like to be self-sufficient;

able to take care of ourselves fully.

The truth is we all need help.

The kind of help which is only available from God.

Psalm 121:2 NIV

My help comes from the Lord,

the Maker of heaven and earth.

All the riches of this earth are not enough.

They cannot help to gain complete financial independence,

emotional stability, or physical health.

No matter how may self help books we read

or seminars we attend,

we can never quite reach the point of being

completely sufficient.

God is bigger than our needs

and greater than our attempts at meeting them.

2 Corinthians AMP

Not that we are fit (qualified and sufficient in ability)

personal judgments or to claim or count anything

as coming from us, but our power and ability

and sufficiency are from God.

Trusting in God we become self-sufficient in His sufficiency.

Psalm 65:5-6 GNT

I depend on God alone; I put my hope in Him;

He alone protects and saves me....
