I’d like to get your feedback on this.  What comes to mind when you read this statement – “God is sufficient”?  Meaning that God is totally and absolutely complete within Himself.  He needs nothing.  In Paul’s sermon to the men of Athens in the Areopagus.

The God who made the world and everything in it, being Lord of heaven and earth, does not live in temples made by man, nor is he served by human hands, as though he needed anything, since he himself gives to all mankind life and breath and everything, (Acts 17:24-25, ESV).

Does that give you peace?  Does it make you feel let down?  Do you believe that or not?

Anyway I’d love to hear your thoughts.
