God is Enough.
If you know me well enough, you know how frustrated I get when I hear a particular pastor (ahem…) talking about health, wealth, and prosperity. The following video is based off of a segment of one of John Piper’s sermons.
Not only does it have a passionate hatred against the false gospel, but it talks about our utter fulfillment in Christ–not in the riches of what we see to be his blessing, but in the riches of what He gives in accordance to his plan. And this may mean that we feel joy, but mostly, in the depth of our sorrow, God’s glory is found. Not to say that his glory is not seen through our joy in God-given prosperity, but that our satisfaction in him is easier seen in our losses.
Enjoy!
