There is a difference between a source and a resource. A source supplies something we can’t produce on our own. A resource is something you acquire from a source that use you use accomplish an objective. God is our source and everything He gives us is a resource to accomplish His will in our lives. We’re to be good stewards of all the resources He places in our lives. We often refer to God as our source in terms of money, but He is the source of everything we need. Sometimes the resources He gives are raw and need to be refined. Other things He gives are complete. Take a look at all the resources He has placed in your life, then give Him thanks and honor as your source. He will not withhold any good resource from those who walk uprightly.
Here are some Bible verses on God as your source.
