I think many of the answers here are sufficient, but I want to put a thought down: God fed Elijah by the Ravens (an unclean animal). It asks the question: do we trust God as the ultimate provider so much so that even if provision comes in the most unexpected, or even unacceptable way, that we still see God in it? If God says He will provide for us, that He will be the one to give us our daily bread, then we need to live each day with eyes of faith that He will feed us. Things that normally bring us a sense of shame or that we have a hard time accepting, for me -- it was food stamps during the pandemic-- could easily have been God's provision in a way that I just needed to accept and be greatful for.
