So, how rich are you? Compared to the world I mean. Go to http://www.globalrichlist.com/ to find out. Simply type in your annual income and then come back to this blog. No really, go do it before you read any further.
Notice the percentage and the spot on the graph line. Pretty amazing, no?
Now just for kicks do it again and type in your dream salary. No really, go do it before you read any further.
The results don't move you up much in either percentage or on the graph, compared to the world, does it?
So when the world talks about rich, affluent North Americans........they are talking about me. And if you live in the United States and are currently employed........they are talking about you. Based on the numbers you just ran this is not my opinion. This is fact.
So what does a Jesus follower do with these words of his:
"It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of God." - Mark 10: 25
Bad news: You and I are rich.
Worse news: I have been unable to find any teeny, tiny REAL camels.
Feeling uncomfortable? Check back for more info on this in the coming days.

OK. So I wasn't the only one listening to the message on Sunday morning. The "narrow path" really makes one think about their personal relationship with Jesus Christ.
Thanks for the message.
