"God is our Provider." It's easy to say, but hard to believe. Add the pressures of economic downturn, high cost of living, and social pressures to impress to this disconnect between our heads and our hearts and the results can be devastating. We might put our hope in finances. We might draw our identity from our careers or incomes or our roles as breadwinners in the family. Or inversely, we might draw identity as the "have nots", regardless of our position globally. All of this turns our attention away from a loving Father who not only cares for us, but desires to teach us to abound in wealth and in scarcity. He wants to teach us to- and aid us in overcoming scarcity for the good.
