Moderators Gregory Matthews Posted February 17, 2018 Moderators Posted February 17, 2018 I am looking for some advice right now. It seems that I am soon going to be in a place in which I can arrange for some charities to receive some substantial donations. I am looking for suggestions as to which charities should receive the available funds. Here is the deal: A woman in Africa is dying of cancer. She has selected me to distribute some $12,700,000 in funds to charities of my choice. So, I need to come up with a plan. Anyway, the very idea that she trusts me to handle such funds has made my day. Any ideas? NOTE: Please do not insult my intelligence by suggesting that I believe this woman. phkrause, Stan and LifeHiscost 3 Quote Gregory
Outta Here Posted February 17, 2018 Posted February 17, 2018 Thank you for sharing this information, Greg, and for reaching out in your time of need. I can't help you make the decision, but I'm sure there are many people here who are willing to offer you a bit of advice. I will offer to pray for you instead. Stan and LifeHiscost 2 Quote
Administrators debbym Posted February 17, 2018 Administrators Posted February 17, 2018 tell her to send all funds directly to the organization called Spring, which sets up wells and clean water sources where there is no clean or readily accessible water. Stump her with this one... tell her all the statistics on people dying for lack of clean water all over the world. https://www.charitywater.org/?utm_medium=ppc&utm_source=adwords&utm_campaign=brand&utm_content=believe&gclid=CjwKCAiAn5rUBRA3EiwAUCWb2wbzow4qBMzTG0M6Jzer6ztjr2zJKC7zu7gF736kvFE214_H2M3cLhoCbmQQAvD_BwE Outta Here, LifeHiscost and phkrause 3 Quote deb Love awakens love.

Moderators Gregory Matthews Posted February 17, 2018 Author Moderators Posted February 17, 2018 Thank you both for you willingness to assist me. In sharing this story with my wife yesterday, I began by stating that an elderly woman had made my day in telling me how pleased she had been in deciding that I could help her with a decision that she needed to make. I then said that she was a woman who was dying from cancer. At that point, my wife interjected with a "Oh the poor dear woman." As I continued my comment, my wife's expression and speech changed.

Outta Here Posted February 17, 2018 Posted February 17, 2018 Was your intent to take pleasure in deceiving your wife? The phrase we used in the 80's for that kind of behavior was "toying with their emotions." If that's the case, and you did intend to deceive her, take note of: Luke 6:31, Proverbs 11:3, Proverbs 12:22, Phillipians 4:8-9, Proverbs 6:1-20. Quote
Moderators Gregory Matthews Posted February 17, 2018 Author Moderators Posted February 17, 2018 Aubrey: I can understand your confusions as to my intent as you have never been in a relationship to me like my wife has. My wife is well used to me and understands me--the poor woman, if you prefer. I do appreciate your use of Luke 6:31, as that verse clearly as it clearly suggests that if I am willing to receive the same from my wife, I can do it to her. So, my wife and I do have fun in our relationship. Thank you for joining me in the conversation. Quote Gregory
