"The Lord will provide..."

O my God, how happy should we be if we could accustom ourselves to make this reply to our hearts when they are anxious and troubled about anything:  "The Lord will provide," and after saying that, to have no more care, anxiety, or disturbance....  Great indeed is the confidence which God requires us to have in His paternal care and in His divine Providence; but why should we not have it, seeing that no one has ever been deceived in it?  No one ever trusts in God without reaping the fruits of his confidence. 

~from The Spiritual Conferences of St. Francis de Sales

Has anyone hoped in the Lord and been disappointed?
Has anyone persevered in his fear and been forsaken?
Has anyone called upon him and been rebuffed?
Compassionate and merciful is the Lord;

he forgives sins, he saves in time of trouble.
~Sirach 2:10-11

 

And my God will supply every need of yours
according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus.
To our God and Father be glory
for ever and ever.  Amen.
~Philippians 4:19-20
