How did we come to think that poor is better than abundance? Greed and abundance are polar opposites. Greed implies there is not enough for everyone so I need to grab what I can and hold on to it. Abundance causes us to relax because there is plenty for all of us and none need to suffer. Look at creation for examples of this abundance - stars, galaxies, grains of sand, oxygen molecules, blades of grass, flowers, animals, plants, ova, sperm, hair, water molecules, and even people.
I am 52 years old and there are twice as many people alive today as were alive when I was 10! Amazing, isn't it? So why do we think we need to hoard things and fear that we won't have enough of something? Satan tells us this lie so we won't be effective Christian witnesses. Instead of having the peace that passes understanding and freely sharing our blessings with others, we believe the lie and spend our lives working hard and never feeling fulfilled because we don't think we deserve to be fulfilled. Think about it. Now relax, drink a glass of water, count the stars, and be thankful for the abundance in your life.
To Your Abundance,
Sandra
