Bitachon in HaShem: HaShem Makes Poor and Makes Rich

Rabbi Yaron Reuven gives a critical lesson in Bitachon in HaShem from the Beit HaLevi, who brings a verse from I Samuel 2:7 "HaShem makes poor and makes rich; He brings low, and raises up." We need to keep this in mind whenever we make an effort to earn Parnasa (to make a living), and not think our effort or wisdom has any bearing on how rich or poor we may be.
