You have My provision

Face each day with faith.  For I, having planned ahead of you, shall provide.  Set your heart to praise Me.  My infinite resources shall provide for your sustenance, and they will never run out.  Yes, My beloved, I shall take care of you; you have My promise--but only if you submit to My leading.  If you run off to do your own thing and fall into a trial because of your sin, I will allow you to suffer this for your repentance.  My special provision is not for the wicked but for the faithful in heart.

Yet I trust that you will not do this to Me.  I know your heart is set on pleasing Me.  If you desire to honor Me, then follow Me--not just the words I've written but the words I speak to you daily through My Spirit.  Sensitize yourself to My voice, and I will lead you in the way.  I shall provide for your needs in My timing.  While your present may hold suffering and a trial, I have prepared your future with peace.

Whenever i save you from a trial, remember to worship Me for it.  Take note of it, and exhort others.  If any are weary and lacking faith, share how I've been faithful to you in your life and so encourage them.  Show them My love through encouragement, and provide for them as I lead you.

Yes, I shall supply their needs through you and still give you more that you shall be taken care of.  I always call you to take care of your brethren and to love them perfectly.  But how I shall provide for them is up to me, not you.  So be sensitive to My leading, and I will show you a greater way that you may feed the hungry, clothe the naked, give homes to the homeless, and drink to the thirsty.  Yes, you can do all these things through Me, and I shall sustain you.  Only have faith in Me and stick to My plan.
