The certainty of having what we need

GEOFFREY J. BARRATT

We can be certain of having what we need. This isn't a lightly made promise.

"Fear not, little flock," Christ Jesus said to his disciples (and the Christ is always saying to each of us); "for it is your Father's good pleasure to give you the kingdom." Luke 12:32;

Facing and mastering fear is an element of opening the door to what we need. Greed, and fretful ambitions for "more," arise in fears—fears for tomorrow or even for this hour. Fear that if we don't have a mountain, or even a hillock, of material things, then maybe we'll feel unhappy and incomplete.
