The LORD provides food

Who provides food for the ravens when their young cry out to God and wander about in hunger? 1 Give thanks to the LORD, for he is good! He gives food to every living thing. 2

He covers the heavens with clouds, provides rain for the earth, and makes the grass grow in mountain pastures. He gives food to the wild animals and feeds the young ravens when they cry. 3 Look at the ravens. They don’t plant or harvest or store food in barns, for God feeds them. And you are far more valuable to him than any birds! 4

So don’t worry about these things, saying, “What will we eat? What will we drink? What will we wear?” These things dominate the thoughts of unbelievers, but your heavenly Father already knows all your needs. Seek the Kingdom of God above all else, and live righteously, and he will give you everything you need. 5

How gracious and merciful is our LORD! He gives food to those who fear him; he always remembers his covenant. 6 Give thanks to the LORD, for he is good! For he satisfies the thirsty and fills the hungry with good things. 7
