Ever-present Supply

ELIZABETH SIEGLER

The Psalmist sang: "Trust in the Lord, and do good; so shalt thou dwell in the land, and verily thou shalt be fed.... Commit thy way unto the Lord; trust also in him; and he shall bring it to pass." When our friends are sad and cast down with affliction, and we ask, "Do you believe in God?" they usually answer, "Oh, surely I believe in God!" It is indeed good to believe, but that is not sufficient; we must also put our trust in Him. The verb "trust" is defined in part as "to place confidence in; to rely on; confide or repose faith in." These words indicate plainly that we should depend upon God alone to supply our every need.

Mrs. Eddy says (No and Yes, p. 42): "God is not unable or unwilling to heal, and mortals are not compelled to have other gods before Him, and employ material forms to meet a mental want. The divine Spirit supplies all human needs."
