I was told a joke the other day. It goes like this.....
"Did you hear about the twenty-dollar bill and the one-dollar bill talking to one another? They were telling each other where they had been.
The twenty said he had just been on a whirlwind trip. He had been to the casinos and to the movies. He had been to a baseball game and purchased hotdogs and sodas. He had been passed on to the lottery and then to a drug dealer. His life was full of extravagant travel.
The one-dollar bill responded saying his life was boring. All he had done was travel from one church to another and another."
What a sad story!
I am amazed at how much we spend on luxury items, travel, clothing, etc. Then I think how much have we given God? If we truly love God and believe He is in control of our life, shouldn't our giving be something we want to do? Shouldn't it be more important than vacations? Our purpose on earth is to win the lost. If we do not support our church and missionaires we are not doing our part. My prayer today is "Lord, give me a giving heart."
