Every now and then we hear something or see something that just puts everything into perspective. I came across a story the other day of a homeless person that was begging for change not for himself but for a single mom who came upon some hard times. Fox News aired an interview about this story and in the interview the person interviewing the homeless man quipped “but you have nothing yourself.” To which the homeless man replied without hesitation, “Oh but I have God, I am one of the richest men on this earth because I have God.” Now I don’t know this man personally but what a profound statement. We overlook people like this man every day in our high paced world but his testimony puts many of us to shame. To see the interview click on the following link:
