    Double Dog Dare Ya ;)

    At a church meeting a very wealthy man rose to tell the rest of those present about his Christian faith. "I'm a millionaire," he said, "and I attribute it all to the rich blessings of God in my life. I remember that turning point in my faith. I had just earned my first dollar and I went to a church meeting that night. The speaker was a missionary who told about his work. I knew that I only had a dollar bill and had to either give it all to God's work or nothing at all. So at that moment I decided to give my whole dollar to God. I believe that God blessed that decision, and that is why I am a rich man today."

    He finished and there was an awed silence at his testimony as he moved toward his seat. As he sat down a little old lady sitting in the same pew leaned over and said to him: "I dare you to do it again."

    Wow....a challenge indeed.
    Jesus said "I am the WAY the TRUTH and the LIFE"......Without the WAY there is no GOING, without the TRUTH there is no KNOWING without the LIFE there is no LIVING....Thats what Jesus said.

    I knew that I ... had to either give it all to God's work or nothing at all.
    With every dollar after that it would seem his knowledge decreased...LOL

    I dont know about ya`ll...but I can`t afford to lose that much gray matter...

    What a great dare. How many will give their last "million" to our Heavenly Father?

    If I were ever at that point, I hope to GOD I could do so if He asked me to challenge my faith. I'm not faithless that He will not bless the giving or restore what I need again. But who can predict themselves when they are mere sinners now and will be tomorrow?
