Amen!
I can truly say, beyond my wildest imagination, that God has faithfully supplied all my needs. I am amazed and grateful!

“Over there” being things like…
Initiating a new relationship or walking away from a current relationship,

Bottom line, I have learned that God’s promise to supply our needs usually involves movement and change from us.
Passivity is seldom a virtue in God’s universe. He rewards and honors faith and works.
Sitting in our easy chair and waiting on God to fill our cup is usually a recipe for disappointment. Most often I have found that our Shepherd leads us to still waters and we have to fill my own cup.
