Because you forgot who you are, Ego has you convinced things of the world (money, houses, cars, yachts, private planes, fame, etc.,) is what should be used to determine how "blessed" you are. This explains the term "the less fortunate," those without.
Because you are created by God, you are created perfect, for God does not make mistakes, we do! Allow the Holy Spirit to remind you of what you must remember in order to get the answer to your question(s.) Because you are created perfect, it is imperative that you invite the Holy Spirit to remind of what you forgot. Then you will know and understand you already have everything you need in this world, for you are not of this world.
Material possessions are of this world, Ego's world, which explains the need to acquire as much as possible and at all costs, hence term "keeping up with the Jones'" sadly believing your treasure will be found there. Ever wonder how a homeless person can end up back on the streets shortly after winning the lotto?
Because you've lost your way, Ego convinced you what man made holds more weight in value than what God created. To add insult to injury, Ego convinced you if you pray hard enough, God will be the One to "bless" you with material possessions. What does that even mean? How does one pray "hard?" You're either sincere in your relationship with God or you're not and please know you're not fooling anyone, certainly not Him for God is sincere!
Know this, the mere fact that you're searching (for anything/one) lends itself to the idea that you're lost. When you remember who you are and Who's you are, all searching ceases. The Holy Spirit will show you all of what is man made is of value to you now but is worthless in the end and so is worthless now for no one knows when their end is!
Stop asking God for what won't matter in the end and is worthless now. Most aren't convinced until their mortality is questioned (ex. terminal illness, traumatic accident, etc.) Because you are created perfect, Peace (beyond your understanding) is found no where but within for God placed His Peace there. It comes in the form of Forgiveness which brings along Trust, so stop with the questions. You are not in control so questions like "where will the money for that come from?", "how will that happen?', "what about me?", "will there be enough?", etc., are tricks Ego uses to throw you off track!
Stop asking for what may bring you happiness for because happiness is only a temporary state, it will bring you pain and suffering at some point for Ego demands payment of everything thing it gives you. Being constant, God offers Joy as His gift to you through the Holy Spirit. Because it's a gift of God, Joy is an eternal state of being. Remember where it came from and you'll keep it rather than give it away for no one can rob you of it!
Of all these, Love is all one ever needs because Love is all it takes! Stop asking and start sharing what you remember now! Peace
