Donde Esta la Support Cards?

Dear family, friends, and anyone else who is reading....... WHERE IN THE WORLD ARE YOU SUPPORT CARDS???? It has been almost 4 weeks and the TIME IS NOW to send them in!!!! Unfortunately, I said on your cards that you did not need to send payment until June 1st (which is true........ BUT WE NEED YOUR PLEDGE CARDS TODAY!!!!!!! The pledge cards indicate to us how to make our budget for the next year...

Many of you have assured me "O its coming, its coming," but let me ask you politely to get off of your procrastination horse and SEND IT IN!!!!! This blog is meant to be funny on this Thursday afternoon, but to make you think as well... I know lots of you are praying about what to do...But GGGGG's it took me less time to decide to give up everything I had to move around the world.... Surely you can decide to let go of some of your money each month so we can spread the gospel......

Let me help you with this....... the average person eats fast food 2 times a week according to a online statistics poll.... The average cost of that meal is 5 bucks...... multiply that times 2 and you get 10 ( i know I confused some of you there, I cant help I am such a math major)

Anyway.... multiply 10 times 52 and TADA you got 520 dollars a year..... I'm not asking you to give up fast food, Lord knows I love it.... If you have seen my recent video blogs of late you can honestly testify under a court of law that you agree!!!!!! but just cut it in half..... That's 260 a year....... Let me tell you what 260 a year would do for us in the Philippines!!!

That would be approximately
75 meals or....
1300 jeepney rides to work or.....
half a months rent or.....
encourage the heck out of 2 missionaries who are leaving every bit of comfort they know to go do what the Lord is calling them to do.......

Okay... Maybe fast food is not your thing..... Lets take golf as an example..... An average round costs 30 dollars..... Lets say you are the privileged man and you get to play 2 times a month... That is 60 dollars a month and 720 a year..... okay so don't give up golf, just cut it in half..... that's 360 a year....

Maybe you hate fast food and golf, but you smoke like a freight train..... Cigarettes are about 3 dollars a pack.... at a pack a day that is 1,095 dollars.... Talk about helping us out!!!!

I can hear the critics, skeptics, and doubting family members even now... If God wants you to go He will make a way..... Here is something to think about...... MAYBE YOU AND YOUR MONEY ARE THE WAY HE WILL MAKE A WAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Don't miss what God is doing here folks.... This is big... for us and for you...........

In closing I will say this.... The other day I hear the famed pastor, Rick Warren, of Saddleback Church in California and the author or The Purpose Driven Life say this......."It is not a sin to be rich, but a sin to die rich.." God gives you "stuff" so you can use it for His glory...... not to save for a rainy day or fatten your retirement checks.......

Just so you know I will lose retirement every year I serve there....but you know what..... I will reap the rewards eternally... WILL YOU?
