Prompt #33 Word Count 197

Mission trip was very exiting; one of the incidents that happened to me was when Audrey and I were driving to our site. All the windows were rolled down because it was really humid outside. Everyday people would beg for money and try to sell stuff, I had some money in my pocket which was one hundred of their money, without hesitation I asked Audrey if I should give my money to the church or give it to the people that are begging for money outside, suddenly she said give it to the boy. Once she said that, I took the hundred out of my pocket and gave it to a random sturdy boy outside. Audrey realized what I have done and so she started yelling at me for about five minutes, until she stopped and just said ‘whatever”. Just from this incident, I learned that God wanted to kill the selfishness that dwelled inside of my body. Then a friend of mine showed me a bible verse that said give to all who ask. The bible does not say what to give, but in my situation all I had was money.
