What is this thing that is going on? I wait to hear the stock market report each day as though I can change something by listening. It has been so erratic and usually disappointing. I am trying not to fret about the future of retirement accounts but also to act responsibly. Is this a time to evaluate my lifestyle and live more simply? Is it a time when I should not expect comfort and privilege? I want to be mindful of those who have lost jobs and income. I want to cut back on my consumption of the resources of the earth. I want to be aware of those who will come after me and their needs so that I do not use up what they will need.
I hope I can trust that God will provide, perhaps not what I want but what I really need. God will provide an abundance of grace and courage.
