“With the goodness of God to desire our highest welfare, the wisdom of God to plan it, and the power of God to achieve it, what do we lack?”
― A.W. Tozer, “The Knowledge of the Holy”
I have the ability to sometimes see what I don’t see. What I don’t see are things that I feel I need.
I don’t live in a house. I live in an RV. But one of my favorite things is hospitality, and an RV is not a great place to host people. I need a house, but I am lacking one.
It is easy to see what I don’t have. It is harder to truly see what I do have. So, I change my perspective.
What do I have?
I have a God who is good and watches over me. He blesses me with family and friends who walk through life with me.
I have a God who has given me a purpose. He has placed in my heart eternal plans and placed people in my life to partner with me.
I have a God who has given me the ability to carry out his plans. He has given me gifts to help me in doing the work to which he has called me.
So what do I have?
Everything.
What do I lack?
Nothing.
It’s all about perspective.
