Paul gives us a concise picture of the relationship between sufficiency and abundance.
"And God is able to make all grace (every favor and earthly blessing) come to you in abundance, so that you may always and under all circumstances and whatever the need be self-sufficient [possessing enough to require no aid or support and furnished in abundance for every good work and charitable donation]." 2 Corinthians 9:8 (AMP)
Do you think that scriptural ‘sufficiency’ means simply having enough to manage by God’s grace? Paul makes it clear that this sufficiency is God’s favour and blessing. Sufficiency becomes an overflow of abundance for every good work. That’s how the two themes – contentment and abundance – work beautifully together. It is the difference between posture and position; how I sit and where I sit. How do I sit? Content. Where do I sit? Blessed.
God has saved you for purpose, called you for purpose, graced you for your purpose!
Rest in it !
