We certainly should not wait passively for what he sends us, but cooperate with him in bringing to completion the work he has begun in us. We must be eager to seek first the things of heaven. We are therefore called to cooperate with God in an attitude of great trust. The certainty that God loves us makes us trust in his fatherly providence even in life's most difficult moments. God never changes.
Patience obtains all.
Whoever has God wants for nothing. Scripture offers us an eloquent example of total trust in God when it tells how Abraham reached the decision to sacrifice his son Isaac. In reality, God did not want the death of the son, but the faith of the father. And then he immediately experiences the benevolent Providence of God, who saves the young boy and rewards his faith, filling him with blessings. Such texts must be interpreted, then, in the light of Revelation as a whole, which reaches its fullness in Jesus Christ.
