financial anxiety — the weight of not having enough

The morning asks you to perform a life that looks stable, even while your hands tremble from the weight of bills and the fear of not having enough. You put the mask on before the coffee cools, smiling at the world while carrying a quiet terror that today will be the day everything breaks.

But look closely at the birds in the sky; they do not sow or reap, and yet your Father feeds them, so tell me, are you not much more valuable than they? The worry is a heavy yoke, but the light inside you is gentle, and it does not demand you fix the future before you are allowed to breathe.

You do not have to earn your worth with a paycheck, because the light in your bones is already full and already yours.
