Father, I know you are sufficient!

That has been a theological concept I have adhered to for a long time. To do otherwise would be un-Christian. That much I have learned.

But I have lived otherwise, and that is certainly not indicative of you or your grace. I know you are sufficient for the big things, like heaven, making everything right at the end of time, and ensuring that the Earth keeps spinning. But it is the little things that the devil uses to entice me to live as though you are insufficient for each day's problems.

Father, I give you the big things, and the little things. The things I can see, and the things I can't see. The things I can predict and the surprises. I give you others around me, and I give you me. I give you my hopes and dreams, and I give you this moment, and I ask that you enable me to trust you now.

If this happens, and I can trust you now, then when tomorrow arrives--regardless of what it holds--I will be prepared for whatever action your sufficiency will manifest to bolster my trust in you and lead me in the triumph of your grace in ungracious places.

Thanks, Papa.
