Jehovah-Jireh and $4.00 gas

With gas prices at $4.00 and Bush’s depression/recession in full swing, I am wondering about the spiritual and emotional health of the people around me.  It must be stressful for some folk to make ends meet.  I pray that people trust in Jehovah-jireh (which means The Lord who provides) for their needs.  By the way, David Brooks  in the New York Times wrote an interesting article on America and its culture of debt.  Eye-opening!
