I think the main point of the story comes from trust. Trust that God will provide everything that we need to be within the center of His will. Trust that He will protect us each day until He is ready to call us. Trust is easier said than done. I think that for me that I need to supplement what God gives me what I need because my wants are greater. The things that God wants me to have, He will allow for me to have. Many times I cross the bounds of wants versus needs and that is due to coveting and pride. I have witnessed those who can't even get their needs met and rarely even have a hope for a want to be met.
If God ever dealt with me according to my desires perhaps I would be penniless and destitute. The other point is holiness and obediance. Still a choice between needs versus wants.
As I enter the seasons of Thanksgiving and New Life, I want to be that vessel for others. Lord remind me of that each day.
