Superb essay, Jake. And convicting! What you wrote also affirmed what I've been praying over recently: I spend too much time and too many resources trying to build "security" with stuff. And I'm never satisfied with what I've got. Yet my accumulated possessions make me feel empty! But getting rid of them is hard. I'm still working on my relationship of trust in God. Say a prayer for me, please.
Yes, I love security too! Trusting in God is honestly terrifying. Severing our relationship with our stuff if extraordinarily hard. I’m still working on it, so I’ll pray for you and you can pray for me!
