Take It and Break It
God has always, and will always, provide us with enough. We don’t need to read today’s text to know that truth. But today’s text reminds us that it’s not Caesar who originates nor facilitates the resources to meet our needs. It’s God. And God alone. That means the world we must strive for, the world we can live into, is steeped in cooperation: the acknowledgement that ours is a world where God’s people and God’s lands operate in accordance with God’s good nature and God’s good character. God empowers us to feed one another; God invites us to be full rather than stuffed; God transforms the ordinary and the meager into the extraordinary and the abundant.
