“Yes, a person is a fool to store up earthly wealth but not have a rich relationship with God” (Luke 12:21, NLT). 

It felt like the wind had just been knocked out of my lungs but in a good way. Maybe that’s how everyone’s experience with conviction goes. You feel like you can’t breathe and are running out of air. But then, your head pops through the water. Fresh wind soars through your nose as you exhale out of your mouth. This time, you’re ready to embrace the change.

I’ve never considered myself wealthy. I grew up in a home that struggled financially and often had a scarcity mindset. As an adult, I noticed I still have those fears. I can’t tell you what amount of money or work is enough. Not because I’m obsessed with work, but because I fear poverty. I fear having enough money for basic needs. Perhaps this is why I struggle so badly with an addition to productivity.
