Confidence in God
Luke 12:29
And seek not you what you shall eat, or what you shall drink, neither be you of doubtful mind.


"Never did man die of hunger who served God faithfully," Cuthbert would say, when nightfall found them supperless in the waste. "Look at that eagle overhead! God can feed us through him if He will" — and once, at least, he owed his meal to a fish that the scared bird let fall. A snowstorm drove his boat on the coast of Fife. "The snow closes the road along the shore," moaned his comrades; "the storm bars our way over sea." "There is still the way of heaven that lies open," said Cuthbert.

(J. R. Green, "Short History. ")
