Our Sufficiency
Another good little adage is:
"You will never know that Christ is all you need,
until he's all you've got".
To which a friend added:
"All that we are, and have, get's seriously in the way".
Spoken about Elijah's experience at the brook in the Kerith Ravine when he went there obeying God's request, only to have the brook dry up.
Seems unfair, doing what God asks and suddenly it's all going wrong. Why? Perhaps to give us opportunity to learn that Christ is all we need!
Anyway, what did the prophet Elijah expect, the brook to flood? - after all, he's the guy who asked God to stop the rain in the first place.
