Humbling
 
 
For 2 weeks in December, I took my wife and two kids (6 and 10 years old) to India to work among the lowest caste. On a Sunday, we visited a church where we had been instrumental in paying for the construction of the church building and pastor’s home. The pastor and his family had been ministering in this village for 20 years as they lived in a mud hut and gathered to worship outside. After I gave the Sunday message, they gave me the entire offering...amounting to a little over $10. One word...humbling.
