John’s words recorded here, remind us that we can never settle for being content with too much, while others are still struggling with too little.
I appreciate we’re all feeling the pinch of rapidly rising living costs, but some of us will still have much more than we need, while others have too little.
Donating to charity and food banks are helpful ways to channel our excess to those without, but it also challenges us to pause and consider what we’re intending to buy, before we buy it.
Do we really need it? And if not, can we share the money saved to support specific needs elsewhere?
If you’re in a position to share, what one thing might you feel led to do in response to these words this month,
or each week of this month,
or even each day of this month?
