TOPIC: THE GEORGIA SURPRISE GIFT!
BASIC SCRIPTURE: GENESIS 12:1-7
It was a day I call: SURPRISE, SURPRlSE GRADUATION CEREMONY! Yes! It was SHOCKING and indeed SURPRISING! Four hundred college seniors in the US State of Georgia, in May this year, received a dream graduation present from billionaire investor Robert Frederick Smith: he paid off their student loans!

Yes! He paid off their student loans worth about $40m (£31m)! (Note that student loan debt is now the second highest consumer debt category – behind mortgage debt – and higher than both credit cards and auto loans. There are more than 44 million borrowers who collectively owe $I.5 trillion in student loan debts in the U.S. alone as at 2018).
During his speech on Sunday May 19th to the historically black Morehouse College in Atlanta, Mr Smith stunned the class of 2019 with his pledge to wipe out their debts, thought to be worth up to S40m (£31m). In a world of selfishness and rising nationalism (MY COUNTRY FIRST), this act of kindness quickly spread around the globe like wildfire propelled by a stormy wind!
Mr Smith’s net worth is estimated to be around S5bn -making him the wealthiest black American, ahead of Oprah Winfrey. And what the Holy Ghost wants you to note is that God’s highest aim is not just to BLESS YOU but to MAKE YOU A BLESSING! You are not alive for yourself! You are not blessed to save more money! You are not in good health in order to watch more TV.
You are in good health to make others healthy; to preach the gospel wherever you go! The LORD told Abraham in Gen 12: 2 – “And I will make of thee a great nation, and I will bless thee and make thy name great; and thou shalt be a blessing.” Note: “AND THOU SHALT BE A BLESSING.” It is good to be blessed but it is BETTER to be a blessing! Sometimes, until you give yourself away, you cannot find yourself!
