How do You Rate Among the Rich in the World?
Are you feeling a little stretched financially?
Here’s an interesting web site that puts Western affluence in perspective. Go to this web site, enter your annual income, and see where you stack up against the rest of the world.

If your income is $50,000 or more, you are in the top 1% of the world’s richest.
What a reminder of why God gives wealth. As Paul tells us “You will be made rich in every way so that you can be generous on every occasion, and through us your generosity will result in thanksgiving to God.” 2 Corinthians 9:11
As Randy Alcorn has said, “God prospers me not to raise my standard of living, but to raise my standard of giving.”
