HUNGRY? TRY EATING DIRT

He who is dying of hunger must be fed rather than taught. – Saint Thomas Aquinas
I am a sucker for buffets. If you ever want to bless me, take me to a buffet. Some of my buddies make fun of me because I have no problem going to a buffet by myself. They say it’s depressing; I say it’s pretty awesome. Here’s how much I love buffets; I proposed to my wife in a buffet parking lot! (If you ask me, it can’t get any more romantic.)
With that being said, one of my greatest pet peeves is seeing someone take so much food and not eat it. I’ve seen a person get chicken strips at a buffet along with 4 other items and eat everything on the plate but the chicken strips. WHY THE HECK WOULD YOU GET THE CHICKEN STRIPS THEN! I always tell them that I should force feed them and whoop their butt. But instead, I take their chickens strips and eat it for them and secretly wish they would be forced to eat mud for a week. Watch the video to know what I’m talking about.

MUD PIES

Taken from The Hole In Our Gospel by Richard Stearns
• Roughly 1of 4 children in developing countries is underweight
• Some 350 to 400 million children are hungry.
• About 1 in 7 worldwide- 854 million people- do not have enough food to sustain them.
• Approximately 25,000 people die each day of hunger or its related causes- about 9 million per year.

"When I was hungry, you fed me" - Jesus
