Lots of Scriptures on wealth in Proverbs, but it seems that being wise, living righteously and having wealth all go hand in hand according to Solomon.  However the Word also says God makes the rich and the poor. I believe God provides my needs. Why? B/c if we seek first His kingdom and righteousness ALL these things (what things? Needs: clothes, food, like Jesus was speaking of) will be given to us.  And delight ourselves in the Lord and He WILL give us our heart's desires.  However if we delight in the Lord, our heart won't be full of covetousness.  If someone only has one Scripture to back up their "doctrine", then that isn't enough. You def need more than one, eh? I'm not talking about your blog. I mean generally speaking.  I know you were just making a point about taking one single verse and not putting it into the context of the rest of it.
