What I learnt from these verses in my devotional guide talks about the fact that we should remember God will always lookout for us. But it went on further, to argue that we should not ignore the people and resources He brings our way. Some people fail to recognise this and they may end up ignoring God. So next time we trust the Lord for His providence we should keep our Trust in GOD and look out for the people and resources He brings our way.
