It is God's

Do not say to yourself, "My power and the might of my own hand have gotten me this wealth."
-Deuteronomy 8:17 (NRSV)

We labor day after day so that we have money to purchase what we need to survive and to give us pleasure. We could easily say, "I worked for this. I earned it. It's mine."

Yes, we work to earn money for food, but God gives us the ability to work to earn a living. God also causes the seeds to grow so food is available. God is indeed the source of all good things.
