Make God your source. The Bible records in Psalm 23 that God is your faithful Shepherd. As your faithful Shepherd, He will always provide for you; in point of fact meet all your needs according to His riches in glory by Christ Jesus as stated in Philippians Chapter 4 verse 19. Additionally, if God is your source, you will always ask Him for what you need and desire; as well as trust Him to make them available to you through His chosen channels and not who you think should meet the needs. For all you care, the person you are looking up to; putting your trust in may not have the resources you require to either give to you or share with you. But God Who always uses unlikely channels so that His name is always glorified will always send the resources you require.
The widow of Zarephath accommodated and fed Elijah throughout the period of the famine. Please read 1st Kings Chapter 17. Lydia the seller of purple in Thyatira provide for the Apostle Paul and his team. Some notable women in the Bible made ample provision for Jesus’ ministry. Please read John Chapter 8. The priest of Midian accommodated and fed Moses until Moses took on the job of shepherding the family flock.
A good number of biblical characters made God their source and they did not lack whatever resources were required for their sustenance and advancement in life. You can do same and you will never be put to shame because God does not fail and those who trust in God are never put to shame.
