It has become popular today to talk about abundance, a term which implies that the universe has plenty of everything to go around. Fair enough.

Reserve is a stronger word because, if you have reserves, it means you have received some of that abundance and actually put it in the “bank” for your future use. Reserves takes the pressure off you having to rely on the abundance. Without reserves you can feel a sense of lack or scarcity.

Interestingly, having reserves can free you up enough to allow you to get in sync with the flow of the universe and then truly experience abundance.
