If your husband is working and not making enough money to support you, stop being mad at your husband and recognize that money comes through people but from Hashem. It is not because of your husband, it is because of Hashem's decision. If you do not have the money that you need, then you have misjudged your needs. You have to accept that this is what you are meant to have.
This is the hardest test we have. This is the first punishment given to man in the garden of Eden. We think that we see cause and effect but this is an illusion. We do our histadlus, and Hashem decides what we are meant to get. If our husbands are not doing as much Histadlus as we think they should we should still not blame them. We work to grow, to withstand nisyonot, and to gain satifaction, not because it is the only way that Hashem can send us money.
Rambam says that when you want to buy something ask yourself two questions:
1) Why do you want it? Is it going to get you closer to Hahsem?
2) What do I have to sacrifice to get this? What is it going to cost in material and spiritual terms.
If you ask yourself these 2 questions you will find that you need less.

Thank you so much for the excellent post! While we all know this in theory, it is so important to keep learning this over and over until it becomes a part of us. It is not enough to just know this we have to actually live it. Thank you again for the amazing chizuk you gave me!
