god of scarcity

8/22/2019

Screenshot of a self video I made talking about the god of scarcity
"No matter how hard you try to shake him, the god of scarcity is a sticky deity."
— Alia Joy, Glorious Weakness. 
​
I struggle with how much I feed the god of scarcity when I greedily hoard my time. 

What do you hoard? What areas of your life is the god of scarcity an idol?  And
who is the God of Abundance? Can we trust him with everything?
​
"Son, life is about sharing. Don't give what you have left over, rather share what you have now." — María Romero as quoted in Separated by the Border (out Oct. 29)
