What Do We Need?
I was very poor when I was in college. I lived in a college dormitory with five other girls. I had to wash my clothes in our bathroom sink and hang them to dry in our tiny bathroom. Of course, this did not go over very well with the others. As I walked to class one day, I found a quarter. A whole quarter. Fifty years ago, that was enough to wash and dry my clothes at the college's laundromat. I still remember the joy I felt, knowing that God saw my need. Most of us need things--lots of things. More than we know. God knows our greatest need. He has already supplied us with a way to get it. Find out what it is in the devotional "A Sense of Need".
Book Excerpt
God's Blessings Devotionals
“And my God sill supply every need of yours according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus” (Philippians 4:19).
What do you need? A bigger house? A new car? Wellness and health of body and mind? Perhaps it is in everyone’s nature to desire material things that he thinks he needs. Many covet things that will make life easier or give them a longer and more comfortable life. But what do we really need?
Philippians 4:19 promises that God will supply our every need. We have to remember that this is God talking, not man. God does not view things as we do. He did not send His Son to give us things. Jesus did not come to make man rich, or healthy, or sane, although He did lots of healing of people’s bodies and minds while He was on Earth.
Jesus came to give our soul everything it needs. If we were hungry, we would need food. If we had no house, we would need a place to live. If we were so poor we could not pay for the comforts of life, we would desire money.
