“The Eternal One will never leave you; He will lead you in the way that you should go. When you feel dried up and worthless, God will nourish you and give you strength. And you will grow like a garden lovingly tended; you will be like a spring whose water never runs out.” (The Voice, Isa. 58:11)
Contemplate the idea that when we feel dried up and worthless, it’s because we’re focused self-ward. But, when we turn to God, The Eternal One, there is an infinite supply of nourishment, strength, and inspiration, among other great qualities, available to us, and, which in turn appear to us, as needs being met.
Awareness Exercise: Become aware of Life’s unfolding divine abundance and opportunity all around you. If this seems an impossible task, notice the proliferation of nature – trees, flowers, insects, birds, etc. Think about how those beings don’t have to struggle to get what they need to growth and flourish. “Consider the lilies how they grow: they toil not, they spin not; and yet I say unto you, that Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these.” (KJV, Luke 12:27) King Solomon, by the way, was the wisest and richest King who ever lived.

“… in proportion as we apprehend the divine nature and love Him understandingly, … [we shall] rejoic[e] in the affluence of our God.” (SH 140:8-12)
