The Soul's All-Sufficient Portion
Lamentations 3:24-26
The LORD is my portion, said my soul; therefore will I hope in him.…


If God is all-sufficient in Himself, He must be all-sufficient for us. That which fills an ocean will fill a bucket; that which will fill a gallon will fill a pint; those revenues that will defray an emperor's expenses are enough for a beggar or a poor man; so, when the Lord Himself is satisfied with Himself, and it is His happiness to enjoy Himself, there needs no more, there is enough in God to satisfy.

( T. Manton.)
