God will take care of you
Psalm 33:18-19(NIV) But the eyes of the LORD are on those who fear him, on those whose hope is in his unfailing love, to deliver them from death and keep them alive in famine.
The phrase the eyes of the LORD signifies the omniscience, omnipresence, and ever-caring nature of God towards His children. At all times, God watches over those who faithfully worship, serve, and follow Him.
Those who fear the Lord are His children, and God will indeed take care of them.
2 Chronicles 16:9a(NLT) The eyes of the LORD search the whole earth in order to strengthen those whose hearts are fully committed to him.
Psalms 34:15(NLT) The eyes of the LORD watch over those who do right; his ears are open to their cries for help.

1 Peter 3:12(ESV) For the eyes of the Lord are on the righteous, and his ears are open to their prayer. But the face of the Lord is against those who do evil.”
Not only does God watch over and protect His children, but He also delights in those who fear Him and who put their hope in His unfailing love.
Psalms 147:11(ESV) but the LORD takes pleasure in those who fear him, in those who hope in his steadfast love.
Psalms 149:4(NLT) For the LORD delights in his people; he crowns the humble with victory.

Psalms 33:13-14(ESV) The LORD looks down from heaven; he sees all the children of man; from where he sits enthroned he looks out on all the inhabitants of the earth,
The fact that the eyes of the Lord are on those who fear Him assures us, as believers, of unwavering security in our lives. God will unquestionably take care of us, even during times of famine.
