I wandered over to this site tonight to discover my place in the world economic spectrum. The results are stagering:
I am in the top 2.8% richest people in the world.
There are 5,831,739,130 people poorer than me.
I am the 168,260,870 richest person in the world.
It blows me away to think I am in the top 3% of the worlds wealth! Now remember, I work in a ministry so I am certainly not blingin it! But this coupled with my experience in Romania has given me a renewed committment to my World Visin kids and focus on global poverty.
Go here, enter your income, and then try and convince yourself you do not have enough to give away to worlds poor. Just try and convince yourself you need another pair of shoes or another shirt while the rest of the world can’t even sip a cup of water, much less a handful of water. Go ahead, I dare you…
be His,
