My Portion

I say to myself, ‘The Lord is my portion; therefore I will wait for Him.’
— LAMENTATIONS 3:24 (NIV)

God is referred to as many things throughout the bible. He’s been a rock, our refuge and our strength among many other things. But one word we don’t kick around much - unless we’re talking about The Daniel Plan Diet - is God being our portion.

When you hear portion, you immediately think about a piece of something or part of a larger amount, but with God it’s on the contrary. When you talk about God being your portion, it means He is all you need and more than enough. This year, don’t compare your portion to someone else’s. Don’t worry about how often someone else vacations, the car they drive, or the house they live in. Start this year by focusing on the plans and thoughts God has for you. What He has for you is for you.

More than enough

Heavenly Father, I will wait for You because You are my portion. You are all I need. Strengthen me as I focus on the plans and thoughts You have for me. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
