“But my God shall supply all your need according to His riches in glory by Christ Jesus." Notice the verse doesn' say some, it says "all." Now this is not a license to be lazy. John Wesley, the founder of the Methodist Church in which I was raised, would say after he finished praying, he would get off his knees and try to make happen what he just asked God to do. Pray as if it was all on God and work as if it is all on you. You both give 100%, it's not 50/50. However, in the end, we have confidence that even if our best efforts are not great, God will still meet our needs. That is a comfort that has guided me for years.
