English term or phrase: out of its alms basket
God's providence reaches to all persons, especially the persons of the godly, who in a special manner are taken notice of. God takes care of every saint in particular, as if he had none else to care for. He careth for you,' I Pet 5:5, i.e., the elect in a special manner. The eye of the Lord is upon them that fear him; to preserve them from death, and to keep them alive in famine.' Psa 33:18, I9. God by his providential care shields off dangers from his people, and sets a life-guard of angels about them. Psa 34:4. God's providence keeps the very bones of the saints. Psa 34:40. It bottles their tears. Psa 56:6. It strengthens the saints in their weakness. Heb 11:14. It supplies all their wants ***out of its alms basket***. Psa 23:3. Thus Providence wonderfully supplies the wants of the elect.
