SUFFICIENT

 “He has said to me, ‘My grace is sufficient for you, for power is perfected in weakness.’” 

 2 Corinthians 12:9

An AT&T commercial recently asked a group of children, “Who thinks more is better than less?” A little girl quickly responded, “We want more. We want more.” We can identify with her when we are weak. What do we want? We want more of God’s grace. We want more of His power. God hears and answers, “My grace is sufficient for you, for power is perfected in weakness.” What does sufficient mean? Does it mean barely enough to get by? No. Rather, the Hebrew word means, “to be possessed of unfailing strength, to be strong, to suffice, to be enough.”* God Himself is the answer to our cry for more. 

Heavenly Father, Thank You that in our weakness, You respond to our cry for more with the assurance that Your grace is SUFFICIENT (unfailing strength) and power is perfected in weakness.
