God got my attention the other night by showing me the word Lack.
The Definition of Lack
' The state of being without or not having enough of something'
I looked up a verse with the word lack in it.
James ch 1:5 If anyone lacks wisdom you should ask God who gives generously to all without finding fault and it will be given to you.
Then all these other verses came to mind when I went through the list of things we could say we are lacking.
I'm lacking sleep... Matt ch 11:28 "I will give you rest"
I'm lacking courage....Dueteronomy 31:8 "I will never leave you or forsake you."
I'm lacking peace ....John ch 14:27 "My peace I leave with you my peace I give you".
I'm lacking finance ....Phil ch 4:19 "My God shall supply all your need according to his riches in glory,
Im lacking direction...Prov 3:5&6 Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge Him and he will make your paths straight.
Whatever you are lacking, Jesus can provide.
Whatever the question,God is the answer.
The well known Psalm 23 puts it so beautifull
'The Lord is my shepherd I lack nothing.'
instead of worrying or trying to sort your own or other peoples problems out.
Go to Jesus our good shepherd lay it all out before him.He is bigger than anything we are going through and He will make a way where there seems to be no other way.
Trust HIm.
