He Is...

This morning I was reading Rachel Anne's thoughts over at Home Sanctuary about what it means for God to be "enough" for us. Normally, this would be the day that I would post my 10 Things for which I am thankful. I think that today I will combine the small thing with Ten Things Tuesday, and make a list of verses that speak to me about how God is "enough" for me.
  1. He is my provider. "So Abraham called that place The LORD Will Provide. And to this day it is said, "On the mountain of the LORD it will be provided." Genesis 22:14
  2. He is my peace. "And He will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace" Isaiah 9:6b
  3. He carries my burdens. "Praise be to the Lord, to God our Savior, who daily bears our burdens." Psalm 68:19
  4. He is my salvation. "The LORD is my light and my salvation-- whom shall I fear? The LORD is the stronghold of my life-- of whom shall I be afraid?" Psalm 27:1
  5. He is my strength. "The Sovereign LORD is my strength; he makes my feet like the feet of a deer, he enables me to go on the heights." Habakkuk 3:19
  6. He is my rock. "But the LORD has become my fortress, and my God the rock in whom I take refuge." Psalm 94:22
  7. He is the one who sees me when I feel invisible. "She gave this name to the LORD who spoke to her: 'You are the God who sees me," for she said, "I have now seen the One who sees me.'" Genesis 16:13
  8. He is my hiding place and my deliverer. "You are my hiding place; you will protect me from trouble and surround me with songs of deliverance." Psalm 32:7
  9. He is my father. "Because you are sons, God sent the Spirit of his Son into our hearts, the Spirit who calls out, 'Abba, Father.' So you are no longer a slave, but a son; and since you are a son, God has made you also an heir." Galatians 4:6-7
  10. He is my guide. "The LORD will guide you always; he will satisfy your needs in a sun-scorched land and will strengthen your frame. You will be like a well-watered garden, like a spring whose waters never fail." Isaiah 58:11

God is all of these things to me and many more. He is more than enough for me!

Blessings,

Melissa

Very nice list Melissa. I couldn't agree more. I wrote a short story on my blog about me and about how God has been more than enough for me.

What a great list and what a wonderful thing you did on Black Friday. I think spending time making footprints in someones life is a lot more important than shopping any day.
