How has God provided for You?

How to Live It as a Christian

It means we look to God for our needs.
It means we are dependent on God, not on things to make us happy.
Do you?
When we do, we are living by faith which pleases God.
When we get more, it is to give more.

What Has Been Left Out and What We Must Add

We should also ask God that His Face also be with us.
Face = God's presence, God Himself
See: Exo. 33:11, Psalm 24:3-6, 27:8, 119:58, Num. 6:24-26
