St. Jude Children’s Hospital in Memphis, Tennessee received a plain white envelope in the mail one day. It contained a one million dollar instant winner game piece from the McDonald’s monopoly game.
Even though transferring ownership of a winning piece was against contest rules, McDonald’s decided that in this case they would pay. Because an anonymous donor had decided it was better to share than to be a millionaire, St. Jude Children's Hospital received one million dollars from McDonald’s.
That story of enormous generosity is nothing compared to the story of Jesus sharing his riches with us. The Bible says, “though [Jesus] was rich, yet for your sakes he became poor, so that you through his poverty might become rich.”
Jesus is the ultimate example of sharing!
