The One Hundred Dollar Bill
The One Hundred Dollar Bill
My daughter and I went to Walmart tonight to get some food. I was looking for sour cream and could not find it for the life of me. So I hovered around the yogurt isle when my daughter said “Dad look”. So I looked on the ground and there was a One Hundred Dollar Bill laying on the ground. So I quickly said “Well pick it up”. So she did. We were in a dilemma, I mean it’s a one hundred dollar bill and anyone in their right mind could say that it’s theirs. My daughter said “What are we gonna do dad? We should turn it in”. So I attempted to convince her and I that we should keep it since it’s cash. So We checked out and went to the car.
There sitting in my car I got a very convicting feeling in my heart. And I looked over at my daughter who was happily playing a game on my iPhone. I reflected on how I handled the situation and asked myself if this was the right decision. I mean, she will remember this day forever. The day we found The One Hundred Dollar Bill at Walmart and kept it. It didn’t settle right with me. So I called My wife. We struggled with the idea at first, but the more we talked about it the more we realized that we needed to make the hard decision to turn it in.
So my daughter and I walked back in Walmart and asked for the person in charge. While waiting for the store manager to arrive, I looked around at the people and thought “What if one of these people couldn’t feed their children tonight because I kept it”? So the manager came up and I explained the situation to him, stating that we are Christians and wanted to do the right thing. He had a very strange look on his face. Almost in shock but speechless. He stated that he will put it in the lost and found and if someone specifically asks for a One Hundred Dollar Bill then it has to be theirs. My daughter and I walked out of the store together and as I looked down at my daughter I was certain that she learned a very valuable lesson tonight, and so did I.
There will be many times in our lives where we will be forced to make a hard decision, the right decision. For ourselves, for our family’s, for our friends, for a stranger, and ultimately for Christ. After all it is about him, Right?

Olivia Broadfield (Esco Remix) – Say
I entered a competition remixing a song by artist “Olivia Broadfield” titled “Say” and if I win, I get $1000.00 in prizes and major exposure. Please give the track a listen and let me know what you think. Here’s a link to the original track so you can compare the two songs: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OL-V4E8fveA
CLICK THE PLAY BUTTON ON THE PLAYER BELOW TO PREVIEW WHAT I’VE DONE:
While working on the track, I do realize that it is more then likely secular in nature however… I picture the song as a heartfelt cry from the perspective of Jesus’ earthy mother Mary as she watched him be crucified. Asking him to stay and to speak his words to soothe her pain. I can’t imagine how hard it would be to watch my own child be crucified…
Or even in the perspective of Mary Magdalene, Jesus accepted her into the kingdom even though she was condemned by others due to being a prostitute. He always loved her, always forgave her, and always labeled her as a child of God.
I had a wonderful time putting my own vibe to this track. The great news is that Jesus did rise again and he is always with us!
2011 in review
The WordPress.com stats helper monkeys prepared a 2011 annual report for this blog.
Here’s an excerpt:
A San Francisco cable car holds 60 people. This blog was viewed about 1,700 times in 2011. If it were a cable car, it would take about 28 trips to carry that many people.
Is this a thought? Or is it God’s will?
We all have that moment, where we have a thought. We aren’t sure if the thought is “just some crazy idea” or is it “God’s will”. You may have had this thought a few weeks ago, or a few years ago. The Point is, the thought was there and now it more then likely isn’t.
A great example is http://www.thnkwater.com, when Chris Webb had that thought. He had to decide if it was just a good idea or if it was the very will of God. In 26 days his water campaign raised $2333.00 forever changing the lives of over 100 people. What if Chris would have decided that it was just some silly idea and through the idea out? These 100 people would still live drinking filthy water every single day.
Another example is http://www.toms.com/ for every pair of shoes bought from this website a pair of shoes is given to a child in need “One for One”. What if Tom decided that this was a crazy idea and discounted the whole thing? There would be a lot of shoeless children.
Take David and Ali Graham’s situation. They had felt the Lord calling them to adopt. Time went by with much prayer and the fight between”God’s vision for us” and “Our vision for us” commenced. A few months ago The Graham’s decided to listen to the voice of God and adopt Sarah Rosemarie Graham. They have provided a new life for a child who would have otherwise had a not so love filled life.
So my challenge is this. Take that thought, that idea and really ask God if it’s from him. If so run with it, and I know in all certainty that you will touch so many lives for the kingdom of God, that in hindsight you will thank God that you listened and that the lives of others will be changed forever. After all, God’s plan is to bless others and make sacrifices that glorify Him.
There are many Biblical examples and also many real life examples. The truth of the matter is that God has told you something at some point in your life and you either chose to do it or not. So what is it? Will you revisit the vision he has given you?
