When I entertained a large group in my home, I feared that the menu I
planned wouldn’t be enough to serve all the guests. I shouldn’t have worried
though. Several friends unexpectedly brought additional items and all of us were
able to enjoy the surprise surplus. We had more than enough and were able to
share out of the abundance.
We serve a God of abundance who is consistently “more than enough.” We
can see God’s generous nature in the way He loves His children.
In Psalm 103, David lists the many benefits our Father bestows on us.
Verse 4 says that He redeems our life from destruction and crowns us with
lovingkindness and tender mercies.
The apostle Paul reminds us that God “has blessed us with every
spiritual blessing” and “is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we
ask or think” (Eph. 1:3; 3:20).
Because of His great love, we are called children of God (1 John
3:1), and His grace gives us “sufficiency in all things” that we “may have an
abundance for every good work” (2 Cor. 9:8).
God’s love and grace, spilled over into our lives, enables us to share
them with others. The God of power and provision is always the God of “more
than enough”!
