You are a minority, as most people do not do their part. Also, that you are seeking God. Am curious as to what state you live in. I lived 15 years total, and the few people I know there now struggle greatly wit expenses because all so expensive. I am retired and would be struggling also.
For over 10 years, I have lived in Costa Rica. Fruits and veggies here are amazing. Yes, it is more expensive than years past, but I am able to live happily without a car, which frees up my finances. I have enough to spend, give and save.
God hears you whether it feels like He is not. I understand hard times. When Jesus was tempted, He told satan to be quiet. You are not alone or helpless.
