I’m
often asked, with all my pantry building, if I feel like God wants us to just
back off and depend on Him to take care of us and provide what we need.
Does
all my pantry building fly in the face of God? Is it sending the message
that I’m not dependent upon Him?
Does
the fact that the Bible assures us that God ‘takes care of His children’ mean
we can sit back and do nothing and expect God to provide our needs?
That’s
quite an inquiry and one that needs closer scrutiny.
In
my opinion, God does make a way for His children but I firmly believe that God
expects us to do what we can … notice I said, what we can … not what we can’t.
