Abundant Life

10/26/2015

What does it mean to live in abundance? Does it mean to live in prosperity when God blesses our pocketbook? Maybe… No doubt money or wealth can be used for good but is that really what the Apostle Paul is addressing in 2 Cor. 9:6-9? Verse 8 states; “God is able to provide you with every blessing in abundance, SO THAT by always having enough of everything, you may share abundantly in every good work.”

Last week I heard a song that states that God knows and controls all of the lightning bolts on earth. Really? Is God directing every single lightning bolt in the sky?

After the shooting in June at Emanuel African Methodist Episcopal Church in Charleston, South Carolina I started writing this blog, but never finished it because the world had moved on.

I mourn for the families of the 9 lives lost in the tragic shooting in Charleston. There have been too many lives destroyed by such violence. There have been discussions in homes, businesses, churches, schools, and the network news programs all over the United States expressing hurt, anger, shock, frustration and even prayers asking for peace. I support any discussion that seeks to stop racism, racist behavior and violence on the street, in the schools, businesses and churches. I too am frustrated with the hatred and loss of human life.

As a white woman, I will not presume to understand racial discrimination and the ongoing treatment of people of color in America. I am truly sorry that everyone is not treated with respect and love just because of the color of their skin.
