Many are in great need in these difficult times and are concerned about what they require to get by, to live, and provide for their needs and family. You may also be worried about things you desire or need. Your desires may be completely innocent, not looking for anything in a selfish way. But just the basic needs of life. Just enough to get you by, or you may be longing for much more. It’s common to desire more; this is perfectly normal. But remember that God knows the true motivation behind your desires. He knows the heart. Even when it is hard to understand why God gives, why He takes away, or why He makes you wait for what your heart desires.
Keep in mind, God says to wait upon Him, and He will give everyone what He has planned for them at the right time. It might be hard to endure while you wait. When life is difficult, the trials can wear you down. But the Lord works every situation out for your good if your faith remains in Him. He is teaching, strengthening, and making you grow in patience and His wisdom. The real purpose of waiting upon Him is to make you more like Him.
Don’t worry or be anxious about any of those things. God knows what you need. “But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things will be added to you.”
Look forward to what is most important and do God’s will, learn, grow, and allow Him to transform you. According to His will, He will always provide everything you need for your progress along the way.
Walk in His ways, and seek those things in your day-to-day life that will bring pleasure to Him. A humble, honest, and patient servant is what makes Him smile. In the end, if you continue by faith and do His will, He will call you a good and faithful servant.
Therefore, I tell you, do not be anxious about your life, what you will eat or what you will drink, nor about your body, what you will put on. Is not life more than food and the body more than clothing? Look at the birds of the air: they neither sow nor reap nor gather into barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not of more value than they? And which of you, by being anxious, can add a single hour to his span of life?
And why are you anxious about clothing? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow: they neither toil nor spin, yet I tell you, even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these. But if God so clothes the grass of the field, which today is alive and tomorrow is thrown into the oven, will He not much more clothe you, O you of little faith?
Therefore, do not be anxious, saying, ‘What shall we eat?’ or ‘What shall we drink?’ or ‘What shall we wear?’ For the Gentiles seek after all these things, and your heavenly Father knows that you need them all. But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things will be added to you. Matthew 6:25-33
The Soul Sower 
Amen!
