Jesus has the power of God, by which He has given us everything we need to live and to serve God. We have these things because we know Him. Jesus called us by His glory and goodness.
- 2 Peter 1:3 (NCV)
Everything.
That is pretty open-ended, isn't it? He has given us everything we need. Sometimes, it's hard to understand because we think we "need" a new car, the latest fashion trend, or the most recent iPhone.
God knows what we truly need, and He gives us everything essential. It may feel like we are not getting what we need, especially when we think of children going to bed hungry. Are they getting what they need? Is God providing for them?
Believe it or not, the answer is yes. People need to listen. God will provide a way to feed families, but sometimes, families need to meet Him halfway.
I have had my “everything” completely ripped away from me, and in those moments, I thought there was no hope. Yet, God knows what we need and provides it. With His help, I am working my way past the hardships, knowing that God will give me what I need, and my hope is restored.
We just need to listen.
