The Rabbi priest wondered how much of the collection he should give to God and how much he should keep himself. He put all the money in an open basket and threw it up to Heaven....God, he said you keep what you want, and I’ll take the rest. Money is a blessing, but its misuse...over loved .. can bring unhappiness. Money and Tax are always news . A little boy begged on the street .... give s a copper sir, and God bless you. A pompous person stopped, looked and said to the boy ....God didn’t bless you much did He ...The little boy said ...O God did bless me Sir ....He gave the money to other people for me , but they forgot to share. We are children of a Famine people ...Thank God we don’t forget to share. All belongs to God. Even what Caesar and the State have is on loan. May our nations of the world who spend vast sums of money on armaments and war, become sensitive to the millions of people in starvation, especially when we sit in comfort to enjoy our daily food and drink , may we do what we can to lend our support for the hungry and deprived, Our missionaries are a blessing that encourages us with their generosity.
