“We have all things and abound; not because I have a good store of money in the bank, not because I have skill and wit with which to win my bread, but because "The Lord is my shepherd.”

Charles Spurgeon

Simplified Meaning:

This quote is about finding everything you need in life through faith, not through money or personal abilities. It means that having a lot isn't about bank accounts or being really smart and talented. Instead, true abundance comes from trusting in God, who takes care of us like a shepherd takes care of his sheep. Imagine a farmer who looks after his sheep. The sheep don’t worry about where their next meal will come from because they trust the farmer to feed them and keep them safe. In the same way, people who have faith feel secure and fulfilled, knowing that God will provide for them. They feel rich and content, not because of their job or savings, but because they believe that God will give them what they need. So, people can apply this by focusing on their faith and trust in God, rather than stressing over money or their own abilities.
