I did some personal reflection a few days ago on much that you talk about here. It often feels like I am a round hole and God's provision is a square peg. My approach (by default, it seems) is to complain about the square peg; I want the peg to morph into a round shape. But it seems that my desires are what need to be softened and made to be moldable, to be shaped around God and His good provision...
Thank you for your insightful and thought-provoking post.
I did review it! It takes the Brüggemann approach that there is plenty to go around and what we need is to stop structuring the world as if we didn’t have enough.

Very thought provoking. Have you read Abundance by Ezra Klein? Did I miss a review? Is it worth the $$ and time? Just curious. Keep provoking!
