Alive: The abundance
What sort of universe is this? Is it a place of scarcity or a place of abundance? The way you answer that question will, whether you realize it or not, govern the way you live.
In a universe of scarcity, there isn’t enough to go around. In this universe, people hold tightly to their possessions. If someone else is blessed, that might be taking away from your blessing.
But that isn’t the universe we live in, because our God is a God of abundance. A God who is infinite, generous, full of grace. There is more than enough to go around. We can hold things lightly, give things freely.
However, due to the unjust systems governing our world, not all have access to this abundance. Our job – as Christians, as the church – is to ensure that all people do.
Prayer:
Dear God,
Thank You for the abundance of the universe You have created. Thank You for the provision of the Earth. Help us to create a more just world, so that not one person has to go without.
Amen.

These Lent devotionals will take you on a journey to discover the abundant life that Jesus offers. The world is full of noise and distraction – bright lights that lead us away from the depth of life, keeping us in the shallows. The kingdom of heaven – the kingdom of life and love and joy – is closer than we think. Let us grasp it with both hands.
