As I listened to the sermon today, July 25, 2010, I came to the realization of how much I do have and how little I will need by the time my birthday comes. The 1 thing that rang over and over in my head is that no matter what my needs are (not wants), God will provide for me and my family no less than the necessities for life, and for what I am given, I am to be a steward of.

I then realized that I have many wants for this up and coming birthday and very little of it is need, and whatever is needed, God will give it to me anyways if He says I need it. Then I heard the commercial from charitywater.org of donating September birthdays and I immediately said â??Thatâ??s for me!â??. As soon as I got home, I setup a Facebook event and set it up and I was so moved by the sermon that morning that I went back again that evening. As soon as I got home I researched the charitywater.org website and discovered I could set up this page and here I am.

Iâ??m not asking for a lot for my birthday this year, just that you donate $30 and help me with my goal of raising $5500.00 to help so many that have far less than most of us in the United States. 30 bucks is not much to ask, so please help me with my minimum goal and with the hopes and aspirations of overachieving!
