Why should I doubt my Master's love
When He has saved me through His blood;
The riches of salvation given,
Withholding nothing, even heaven?
""Come take of my forgiveness now,""
The Kind One said and humbly bowed
Beneath the cross that brought Him shame
So I could know His matchless Name.
And then, He came to live within,
Erasing and forgiving sin;
And making me His wealthy heir
So all He has I now can share.
Forgive me, Lord, for senseless thoughts
That question you, when you have brought
Me every kindness I have known;
I worship now here before Your throne!

We have our golden calves. Power, pleasure, materialism are three big ones. We bow before them, doing anything to get them. They become idols that we worship. Stone gods that we bow before. And God has the same reaction.
When will we learn? There is ONE GOD! There is only one who can deliver us. Only one from whom every good and perfect gift originates. One Creator of all that is, including the very cells of our bodies. One God we should look to and one God we should worship and serve.
Does God have a task for you to do? Most assuredly He does. Then He will put the calling, empowering, and skill necessary to accomplish His work in and through you. This sufficiency is true for the smallest, daily tasks and the greatest endeavors. You need not fear. Look to Him and all the sufficiency you need will be provided. You will be able to say with Paul, “I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me” (Philippians 4:13).
In this way, God’s miraculous work gets done and all the glory goes entirely to the One who equipped you for the task.
