Hurry, Worry and the Life Abundantly Unlived

Time and again, someone will lament the lack of time.
There is too much going on, too many bells to answer, too many balls to juggle, too many people to see, too much work to be done, too many things left undone or unsaid ....
Then there are those who are concerned about how much they worry.
Will there be enough money, enough equity, enough savings, a steady income.  Will the neighborhood stay safe, the school district maintain excellence, the children make it into the right school to get the right education to land the right job so they can buy the right house in the right neighborhood to raise the grandkids to repeat the cycle.
Is that all there is?
What if the abundant life Christ came to bring us has nothing to do with our stuff, our status, our comfort, our security?   What if He really meant that in order to find our lives, we have to lose them?  To walk away from the "rat race" and pursue God with everything in us.  What if He literally meant Luke 6:20-25?
Just sayin'.
