Here is a quote from “Men of the Bible.” by Ann Spangler.
The first study is on Adam.
“Our longing for more when we have enough. Our sin of discontent in the midst of plenty.”
Enough is a good word!
The Greek word is “arketos” and it is close to “sufficient.”
”Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own.” Matthew 6:34
Philip said, “Lord, show us the Father and that will be enough for us.”
John 14:8
I think one lesson from this week’s reading is to know, that you know, that you know —- God is enough. One of my favorite verses are 2 Corinthians 12:8-10 —-
“Three times I pleaded with the Lord to take it away from me. 9 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 about my weaknesses, so that Christ’s power may rest on me. 10 That is why, for Christ’s sake, I delight in weaknesses, in insults, in hardships, in persecutions, in difficulties. For when I am weak, then I am strong.”
God is enough!
Jesus is enough!
The Holy Spirit is enough!
His GRACE is enough!
