Where my wife grew up you had to lock your car when going into town otherwise you may find a basket of zucchini on the seat when you return to the car.

Cameron just want to say that I love your daily reflections. Thank you for sharing your wisdom and faith with us all. They help us to fight the temptations to despair right now. Let us keep praying for our country and for people with integrity, such as yourself, who continue to inspire us to keep hope alive and continue running the good race.

And how much can we take in with us through the eye of a needle anyway? The most sensible thing to do with all that we have is share it. It lightens the load, shares the wealth, and blesses. It can’t be any simpler. May it be so. Thank you, Cameron, for your fresh and generous sharing of Truth. Peace in your gardening…

"The purpose of abundance is participation." Thank you, Rev. Cameron!

I loved the inclusion of opportunities and resources as forms of abundance. I am sometimes overwhelmed by the abundance of possible ways I can be of service because I may have a gift/skill set that is useful, or the multitude of inspiring resources such as this Substack! Even the abundance of responsibilities that seem to have a demanding urgency can feel like compressive forces vs opportunities and the elements of my life’s curriculum. Today I felt myself shift a bit from a sense of too muchness and overwhelm triggering exhaustion, to a break through of gratitude that just now in my life I have so many choices and also have capacity for the self leadership needed to choose. I’m blessed.

Oh dear sister! Growing up on a farm how I know the vegetables don’t care about too much. How even after sharing and sharing and sharing some more, there was always plenty (even with seven hungry people).

But I will say that zucchini (of all my favourite breads and muffins to bake and share) are my all time favourite. If I lived in close proximity, I would bake these for days, freeze them, and generously gift them!

Your bounty is endless Cameron. Thanks 🙏

Thank you for your wisdom, it was refreshing to read about sharing abundance. We have a tiny farm (in the UK) and know all about abundance especially of squash, courgettes (zucchini), and for us apples, the pigs are big fans of abundance!
