I enjoy stats, so here are a few for you to digest.
Americans use 10% of their income to buy food. Most other countries use 80% of their income to buy food.
Does your household make more than $45K a year? Then you are in the top 4% of wealthiest households IN THE WORLD.
Does your household make more than $75K a year? Then you are in the top 1% of wealthiest households IN THE WORLD.
I know the Lord has blessed us as Americans. The real question is what are YOU doing with that blessing? What am I doing with that blessing? Are we being a blessing to others?
I have had this on my heart a lot lately. My prayer is that the Lord will help me be a blessing to others and glorify His name with each action.
Hebrews 13 1-2 “Keep on loving each other as brothers. Do not forget to entertain strangers, for by so doing some people have entertained angels without knowing it.”
James 1:27 “Religion that God our Father accepts as pure and faultless is this; to look after orphans and widows in their distress and to keep oneself from being polluted by the world.”
