Quick recap: On Tuesday we sat with Mary’s revolutionary song and Luke’s blunt “blessed are you who are poor” — how the good news was announced first to the poor and hungry, and how comfortable religion spiritualized that away or flipped it upside down. Today we bring it into the body, where scarcity actually lives.
Scarcity isn’t only a belief. It’s a physical state. If you grew up without enough — or grew up being told that needing anything was a spiritual weakness — your body learned it. It shows up as the clench in the stomach around money. The inability to rest until everything’s done. The quiet sense that you have to keep producing to justify the space you take up. Prosperity theology didn’t just teach your mind that worth equals output. It trained your nervous system to never feel like enough.
So today we practice the thing that faith kept telling you to earn: rest, receiving, and enough.
