We lack nothing, because we are called by God to be saints together. Our holiness is received not achieved.
As a natural result of sin, there will come times of difficulty. We must be patient and endure, but we also need to understand that all sin is equal. We all start from the same place. Be sure we are not viewing the Bible through a distorted lens, rather using it as a lamp, lighting our way through the darkness and making us wise for salvation.
God is faithful, even to the faithless. God's love for us is not contingent upon us. No matter how bad it gets, we can have permanent and eternal rest from our enemies. Yet our worst enemy is not other people, but our own enmity. Jesus conquered enmity on our behalf, so reconcile with one another as Christ reconciled us. Return evil not with more evil, but the violence of grace and unmerited favor.
God's faithfulness is not dependent upon us measuring up. But when we rise to the occasion for such a time as this, be sure to seek divine intervention before human intervention.
Where is God in all of this? God is to be trusted, even when His providences seem to run contrary to His promises.
