The Lord created you. Before you were born, he was already taking care of you. He will continue to help you. He says to you,

‘Do not be afraid, my servant, Jacob.
    I call you “Jeshurun”,
    and I have chosen you to belong to me.
I will pour water onto land that is thirsty.
    I will pour streams of water on the dry ground.
I will pour out my Spirit on your descendants,
    and I will bless them.
They will grow up like fresh grass in a field.
    They will grow like willow trees beside a river.

For I will pour water(G) on the thirsty land,
    and streams on the dry ground;(H)
I will pour out my Spirit(I) on your offspring,
    and my blessing(J) on your descendants.(K)
They will spring up like grass(L) in a meadow,
    like poplar trees(M) by flowing streams.(N)
