apparently a primary verb (but probably akin to 142 through the idea of raising a barrier); properly, to ward off, i.e. (by implication) to avail (figuratively, be satisfactory):--be content, be enough, suffice, be sufficient.

Your conversation is your “manner of life”.

So often I think we are focused on what we do not have, because of this outlook we think, and then believe … we can’t do this or that.

We really need to learn to focus on what we DO have. What things have been given to you by the Lord? What has been promised to you in His Word?

Even if you just look at the scripture of the day, we find we have HIM. If we have Him, really what more do we need? Whatever needs to change or happen He will lead us in the RIGHT path, to the RIGHT place, at the RIGHT time so that we come through the valleys into the place He has prepared for us. Phil 1:6 tells us, He has begun a good work in us and will complete it … He will not give up on us so don’t give up on yourself, or the dream He has put in you. He will never leave us, nor forsake us. As one song says, “Jesus and Me are a majority”. Say that a few times today, it feels good and it will do you good.
