If God is the provider why is it that I am suffering?
Only to make sure you will not trust the ego but trust goodness. Mahatma Gandhi said, "there is sufficiency in the world for man's need and not for man's greed".
Existence is always providing us but we are constantly worrying for we live in the self and die for the self. We need to trust existence as a loving mother. We doubt existence and trust the ego and hence suffer.
Learning to trust existence is to relax. And once you are relaxed you will see how you are provided. Even if you are not provided with food the God has provided us the strength to tolerate and survive. Once you understand that a great strength will arise in you.
Once a generous king in ancient India while performing a yagna gave away everything. The disappointed minister told him that by doing so he would be left with nothing behind.
"No, I still have hope which is my greatest asset", replied the king.
