Looking at those pile of bills
I shake my head in despair
Wondering, the money will come from where?
Just can’t seem to get ahead
Soon as income increase
Expenses increase too
For my labor, I want to enjoy more fruit

Yet, no bill has gone unpaid
When money wasn’t enough
Miraculously You sent some my way
Sometimes I have to struggle
But You always make it enough
You’re such a wonderful One.

Scripture Reference: Matthew 14:13-21
In Matthew 14:13-21, When Jesus had to feed the five thousand people; there was no food save the two fish and five loaves which is practically nothing for five people let along five thousand. But Jesus took the little food and not only made it enough; He made it more than enough.

 

Who am I that Thou art mindful of me?
As I ponder these many years
Whatever I asked for You did give
And for the times You didn’t honor my request
It turned out to be for the best
And for that You didn’t at all give
Happily without it I learned to live
So, who am I that Thou art mindful of me?

We are as unequal as could be
I’m a working person depending on a job to live
You don’t need to work
You own the earth and cattle on a thousand hills Ps. 50
If I spoke who would gather to hear?
Yet, when you spoke the mountains shook, people trembled in fear Ex. 20
So, who am I that Thou art mindful of me?

Maybe I should ask who art You?
You are the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob
The Lord Jesus is Your Son
And You’re mindful because You’re merciful and gracious
You’re such a wonderful One.
