This month we remember how Jesus is more than enough for us, regardless of our circumstances.
Key Points
God’s love is sufficient. We don’t need anything else.
Our dependence on God is not weakness — it’s absolutely necessary.
God wants us to live an abundant life. When we are good stewards of what He has given us, we will walk in abundance.
We can be generous with others because we’ve received all we need in Christ.
We are equipped to do God’s good work because of the gifts He’s given us, not because of anything we’ve done.
Being content in a world obsessed with the newest, shiniest trends may seem nearly impossible. Let’s go against the grain and have a heart posture of contentment and gratitude.
People may let us down, but we are always safe and secure with God. We can trust Him with all we have.
Scripture
“But he said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.” Therefore I will boast all the more gladly of my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ may rest upon me.” 2 Corinthians 12:9
“Not that we are sufficient in ourselves to claim anything as coming from us, but our sufficiency is from God…” 2 Corinthians 3:5
“But God shows his love for us in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us.” Romans 5:8
“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
“A generous person will prosper; whoever refreshes others will be refreshed.” Proverbs 11:25
“Give generously to them and do so without a grudging heart; then because of this the Lord your God will bless you in all your work and in everything you put your hand to.” Deuteronomy 15:10
“They had a few small fish as well; he gave thanks for them also and told the disciples to distribute them. The people ate and were satisfied.” Mark 8:7-8
Quotes
“The good life isn’t the absence of heartache; it’s the presence of God, by grace, in the midst of it. Our hope in the midst of hardship is that Jesus doesn’t just work things out for our good—he is our good.” Ruth Chou Simons, When Strivings Cease: Replacing the Gospel of Self-Improvement with the Gospel of Life-Transforming Grace
“There is nothing you can do that could cause God to love you less. And there is nothing you can do to make God love you more. God loves you not because love is what He does. Love is who He is.” Craig Groeschel
“Jesus didn’t wait until we got better to die for us. He died when we were in our most unlovely state. The person who doesn’t deserve love actually needs love more, not less. If you know someone unworthy of love, that’s great! You now have a chance to emulate Christ, because the essence of His love is unconditional.” Tony Evans, Our God is Awesome: Encountering the Greatness of Our God
“God is not more in love with a future more holy version of you. He loves you now, fully.” Ashley Morgan Jackson, Tired of Trying: How to Hold On to God When You’re Frustrated, Fed Up, and Feeling Forgotten
“Each day I start with the things I’m certain about and try to land my weight on those things. It always starts with a loving, caring God who is tremendously interested in me and the world I live in. I’m picky about what else I add after that.” Bob Goff, Everybody Always: Becoming Love in a World Full of Setbacks and Difficult People
