The problem is the obesity of hording rather than the fullness of sharing.

Tuesday November 14th, 1 Kings 17: 13 Elijah said, "Everything will be fine. Do what you said. Go home and fix something for you and your son. But first, please make a small piece of bread and bring it to me. 14 The LORD God of Israel has promised that your jar of flour won't run out and your bottle of oil won't dry up before he sends rain for the crops." 15 The widow went home and did exactly what Elijah had told her. She and Elijah and her family had enough food for a long time. 16The LORD kept the promise that his prophet Elijah had made, and she did not run out of flour or oil. What would happen if we also learned to share? Most of us are not facing starvation in our lives, and we avoid looking at it in the lives of others. The problem in America is the obesity of hording rather than the fullness of sharing. Perhaps the problems facing so many in the world of not having enough to survive, and the problems facing so few in the world, of having too much to survive, have a common solution. Perhaps we can develop stronger faith and fuller bellies at the same time, just not in the same person.
