Abundance-thinking Leads to Eternal Happiness

December 1, 2010
Wednesday of the 1st week in Advent

Alleluia, alleluia.  Behold, the Lord comes to save his people; blessed are those prepared to meet him.  Alleluia, alleluia.

Think Abundance, rather than scarcity.

In today's Gospel, we learn that Jesus taught great crowds, cured many and then feed everyone with a few loaves of bread and a few fish.  Jesus demonstrated His love for His people.

Transcending Mediocrity is about a shift in our attitudes and motivations to love others as Jesus loved.  We can begin by thinking abundance or other-centeredness, and transcend scarcity-thinking or self-centeredness.
