Abundance
 
 
11Then Jesus took the loaves, and when he had given thanks, he distributed them to those who were seated; so also the fish, as much as they wanted. 12When they were satisfied, he told his disciples, "Gather up the fragments left over, so that nothing may be lost." 13So they gathered them up, and from the fragments of the five barley loaves, left by those who had eaten, they filled twelve baskets. 14When the people saw the sign that he had done, they began to say, "This is indeed the prophet who is to come into the world."

Abundance is not something we acquire.
It is something we tune into.

There cannot be a sense of abundance or the experience of prosperity without appreciation.  You cannot find beauty unless you appreciate beauty.  You cannot find friendship unless you appreciate others.  You cannot love unless you appreciate loving and being loved.  If you wish abundance, appreciate life.

Golfers had a little trouble playing for a while!
There were almost 80 elk who did not want to leave!!!

An abundance mentality springs from internal security,
not from external rankings, comparisons,
opinions, possessions, or associations.

15When Jesus realized that they were about to come and take him by force to make him king,
he withdrew again to the mountain by himself.
