Scarcity or Abundance Mindset
When it comes to giving, we can develop a scarcity mindset and forget that God provides for all our needs. Sometimes co-parents do the same thing. They have a scarcity mindset about time with their kids and fear they'll lose their affections. No, have an abundance mindset. Be flexible with schedules and know that a child has more than enough love and loyalty for you and every new member of their blended family. Scarcity means you're scared. An abundance mindset brings an abundance of blessing.
