We are loaded down with too many good things, more than we could ever need, while others are desperate for a small loaf. The good things we cling to are more than money we hoard our resources, our gifts, our time, our families, out friends....how ludicrous it is to hold on to the abundance God has given us and merely repeat the words 'thank you'.
