As has been noted so many times that it's cliché, it often takes difficult circumstances to show us what's really true. For example, how easy it is for us to say, "God is sufficient." But do we honestly believe it? We get distracted thinking we need other things (or people). Then we lose them and find out that God truly is able to supply all we need.
Have you lost family? or have they let you down? He is the Father Who never fails us. He loves us more than anyone else ever could.
Are you single or has your spouse failed you? Ephesians tells us that Christ loves the church as a husband should love his wife. God cares for us as His beloved.
Are you without a church? If you are saved, you are in the Body of Christ--the one church. Are you without a pastor? He is the Good Shepherd and will lead you to green pastures and protect you from the enemy.
Are you without a friend? Then you have a Friend Who does indeed stick closer than a brother.
And when you lose everything, you finally discover the truth. God is, in the end, enough.
