I just watched my first episode of the Secret Millionare the other night.  Another one of those reality shows.  The millionare moved into a dilapidated section  of Gary Indiana and began his search for who he could give some of his money away to. He was looking for people who were genuinely trying to make a difference in their community.  He came upon four different organizations who were limping along trying to help others.  The organizations were obviously Christian.  People swatting at the elaphant- sized  disaster of their home with a fly- sized swatter.  No matter, they kept at it, because if they didn't at least try, one thing was certain....nothing would get done.  It was into this atmosphere the millionare came.   He was so touched by these people that he was stressing over the possibility of them rejecting him for his lack of complete honesty about who he was.  I think he originally wanted to bless one organization but could not choose.  He split the money and blessed them all.  The people weren't mad; they were pretty thrilled to receive the checks and resources he handed to them.  You can probably see where I'm going with this.....Yeah, it's so like God.  He is ready and willing to strengthen and support a heart that is fully committed to him. If he were to come to Canton tomorrow and roam the streets looking for a person to support would he find you limping along trying to get the job done?
