Today’s Gospel makes it very clear how Jesus expects his followers live and act while on their missions for him - with full dependence on God’s mercy and provident generosity. Placing their trust in God’s provident generosity does two things at least: it specifies where their strength and commitment comes from and explains who is adding the increase bringing the fruit from these events in God’s service. It is the Spirit that adds the increase and it is God’s service that Jesus’ followers are performing. There is no other source or center of their lives and work.
