Well right, exactly. God wants you to direct your own life.

So what's this "we must rely on God for all our needs" folderol, then?

We always have free will, whether we put our trust in God or not. God will take of our needs, but our dreams, aspirations, and desires, are our own to work with.

People need food, people are starving to death in many countries, example Africa. They worship god. Did god decide those people don't deserve to live?
