How much do you really need?
And of what?
Loving arms wrapped around you?
A listening ear.
A reflective tone.
Understanding. Wisdom.
Rest. Sleep. Prayers. Tears?
Support and healing from the heart.
Oh, fear the Lord, you his saints,
for those who fear him have no lack!
The young lions suffer want and hunger;
but those who seek the Lord lack no good thing. Psalm 34:9-10
Life’s about more than cares and worries.
A few deep breaths can calm the mind.
Delight yourself in the Lord,
and he will give you
the desires of your heart. Psalm 37:4
For by grace you have been saved through faith.
And this is not your own doing;
it is the gift of God,
not a result of works,
so that no one may boast. Ephesians 2:8-9
And my God will supply
every need of yours
according to his riches
in glory in Christ Jesus. Philippians 4:19
And what did Paul teach us?
In all things I have shown you
that by working hard in this way
we must help the weak
and remember the words of the Lord Jesus,
how he himself said,
‘It is more blessed to give than to receive.’” Acts 20:35
Take that in for a moment.
