Through God’s Eyes
But you are a chosen people, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, God’s special possession, that you may declare the praises of him who called you out of darkness into his wonderful light.—1 Peter 2:9 (NIV)
“How many loaves do you have?” Jesus asked. “Seven,” they replied, “and a few small fish.”—Matthew 15:34 (NIV)
Jesus is at His best when the odds are at their worst. In the above verse Jesus faced a crowd of a thousand hungry people with seven loaves of bread, and a few fish, but amazingly it was more than enough. Instead of worrying about what you don’t have, focus on abundance and trust in Jesus’ provision.
Heavenly Father, because of You I know I will always have enough.

I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full.—John 10:10 (NIV)
