Divine blessing: The blessing of the LORD brings wealth, without painful toil for it. But the blessing of the LORD is sufficient without addition of toil or anxiety. The person who seeks first the blessing of God finds wealth arriving without the exhaustion that accompanies striving apart from God. This offers the paradoxical principle: seek God's blessing, and provision follows. The person who trusts God avoids the frenetic striving that characterizes the self-reliant.
