Dependent on God

But we beseech and earnestly exhort you brethren, that you excel to make it your ambition and endeavor to live quietly and peacefully, to mind your own affairs, and to work with your hands, being dependent on nobody [self-supporting] and having need of nothing!  Adapted from 1 Thessalonians 4:10-12

First off, work hard to take care of you and yours, and count on no one in this world to take care of your responsibilities for you.  Secondly, pursue peacefulness in all your endeavors, and let no mortal man rule your heart.  And most importantly, be completely dependent on God, because with Him no middleman is necessary - He will provide your every need.
