Having enough to share

Be careful what you pray for— you're likely to get more!

Enough time. Enough intelligence. Enough strength. Enough money. Concern with having enough is often a recurring theme. But how much is enough? When do we know our quest for enough is complete?

The word complete contains a clue. Each of us, as the children of God, is always complete, because we coexist with our Father-Mother, who continuously and reliably meets our needs. Not just some of them. Not just some of the time. This arresting statement has taught me a lot about how and when God meets our needs: "Divine Love always has met and always will meet every human need" (Mary Baker Eddy, Science and Health, p. 494). That doesn't refer to future needs alone, urging trust in God with no precedent. Rather, it relates also to the past; whenever any human need has been met, it has always been evidence of divine Love's provision, regardless of how the help has come.
