In this series, we have reframed the four pillars of economics: earning, spending, saving, and investing.
We have been reminded that our yearn to earn can become misplaced as fear of scarcity ravages our energy and keeps us only mindful of caring for “our own.” We have been reminded that when we spend the true commodities of hope, purpose, healing, meaning, and grace at the center of God’s vision of the future, we will never run out.
Savings becomes salvific when are offering gratitude and storing up the will for generosity spurred by the gifts we are given by God every day. And investing our interest in the wellbeing of all is the way of freedom from fear.
Today we hear that the measure of goodness will overflow into our laps when we dip from the stone jars of God’s love.
Weekly scripture – Psalm 37:1-11, 39-40 & Luke 6:27-38
