It’s No Trick;
and It’s More Than Just a Treat!
and It’s More Than Just a Treat!
Of the more than $5,000,000,000,000 in debt into which this country’s sunk in the past four years, what hurts me the most, is that a mere $100,000,000,000, just 2 % of that total, could have eradicated famine in Africa.
Even the $95,000,000,000 which went to fund the failed projects of those who supported the President could have done the job as well.
Money wasted on a few could have saved the lives of millions!
What frustrates me about not being rich is that I can’t donate as much I want to help World Vision not only eradicate famine and help others in crises, but to help them become capable of growing their own crops to prevent the famine from happening again.
You know, the old Teach A Man To Fish, or in this case farm, scenario.
With World Vision, less than 15 % of the money they receive goes to fundraising, management, and general costs, which means over 85 % goes to help those in need.
Unlike other organizations where the people line their pockets with 90 % or more, so that less than 10 %, if that much, helps anyone.
Give where your money will do the most good.
This Halloween, and all year long, donate to feed the hungry, to heal the sick, to clothe the naked, to do good unto Christ as we do good unto His brothers in need*.
You don’t have to shoot webs or wear Spandex to be a superhero. Just say no to seconds. Skip the jumbo latte. Missing a treat or two won’t mean that much to you, but it’ll mean life to someone else.
You don’t even have to skip treats this Halloween, just remember to help those in need too. So have fun! Have lots of fun! And share with those who need your help to survive. Knowing you’ve helped others will enhance your fun in ways you can’t imagine.

Matthew 25:31-46
(New King James Version)
31 “When the Son of Man comes in His glory, and all the holy[a]angels with Him, then He will sit on the throne of His glory.32 All the nations will be gathered before Him, and He will separate them one from another, as a shepherd divides hissheep from the goats. 33 And He will set the sheep on His right hand, but the goats on the left. 34 Then the King will say to those on His right hand, ‘Come, you blessed of My Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world: 35 for I was hungry and you gave Me food; I was thirsty and you gave Me drink; I was a stranger and you took Me in;36 I was naked and you clothed Me; I was sick and you visited Me; I was in prison and you came to Me.’
37 “Then the righteous will answer Him, saying, ‘Lord, when did we see You hungry and feed You, or thirsty and give You drink?38 When did we see You a stranger and take You in, or naked and clothe You? 39 Or when did we see You sick, or in prison, and come to You?’ 40 And the King will answer and say to them, ‘Assuredly, I say to you, inasmuch as you did it to one of the least of these My brethren, you did it to Me.’
41 “Then He will also say to those on the left hand, ‘Depart from Me, you cursed, into the everlasting fire prepared for the devil and his angels: 42 for I was hungry and you gave Me no food; I was thirsty and you gave Me no drink; 43 I was a stranger and you did not take Me in, naked and you did not clothe Me, sick and in prison and you did not visit Me.’
44 “Then they also will answer Him,[b] saying, ‘Lord, when did we see You hungry or thirsty or a stranger or naked or sick or in prison, and did not minister to You?’ 45 Then He will answer them, saying, ‘Assuredly, I say to you, inasmuch as you did not do it to one of the least of these, you did not do it to Me.’46 And these will go away into everlasting punishment, but the righteous into eternal life.”
