Fear Trusts Scarcity. Love Trusts Abundance.
During a time when I was confronted with a lot of fear, I created a series of hand motion prayers (for my own use) to move from fear to Love.
Beloved,
Fear wants you to believe this is all you’ll ever get.
And it’s not intentionally being malicious. You’ve come a long way from where you’ve started, and that is something to celebrate. But fear is wary of the risk it takes to keep dreaming, and it would like you to settle for what you’ve already obtained.
Scarcity is rooted in the past. It says up until now you’ve had everything you needed... but that ends today! And it’ll say this day after day after day after day if you let it.
Scarcity wants you to close your fists and hold on tightly to what you have obtained because it is convinced that today was the last day of any kind of generosity in the world.
Scarcity survives on the premise that there are no free lunches in the world. And yet with just a pause of remembrance, you know this is not the case.
Your early developing years consisted of quite a few free lunches from momma. You can recall the time when someone split their homemade PB&J with you in the school cafeteria. You can remember the time when you were the stranger in a foreign land and were unexpectedly welcomed to the family dinner table.
Love in the flesh once invited a woman at a well to know that there can be a never ending spring that flows from inside you.
Love once invited his friends to make for themselves money belts that never wear out.
Love once told of a father that said to his son, “Everything I have is yours”....
and that simple phrase is the key to unlocking the Universe.
You don’t need to hold so tight if “everything I have is yours.”
