Even Gifts From Other Men are From Hashem

The obligation to have bitachon goes so far that even if one is forced to stick out his hand and accept charity from others, he must believe that this is Hashem’s will and He is the one who is really giving him the money.

This is as the Kotzker Rebbe zy”a explains the words we recite in Birchas Hamazon: “And do not make us be needy for the gifts of the hands of human beings and not for their loans, but only for Your full and open hand.” He explains this to mean that even if one needs to accept gifts from others, it is really coming from Hashem’s hand.
