MEGAMILLIONS is at $442 million.
THE NEXT DRAWING is Friday, July 20. CHANCE OF WINNING: 1 in 259M.
You'd have a greater chance:
1. Being killed by a vending machine falling on you: 1 in 112 million.
2. Dying from an asteroid strike: 1 in 75 million.
3. Being named a Saint: 1 in 20 million.
4. Have identical quadruplets: 1 in 15 million.
5. Getting attacked by a shark: 1 in 11.5 million.
6. Dying from chronic constipation: 1 in 2.2 million.
7. Becoming a movie star: 1 in 1.5 million.
8. Getting struck by lightning: 1 in 1.1 million.
9. Being dealt a royal flush: 1 in 650,000.
10. Dying from a hornet, wasp or bee sting: 1 in 79,842.
11. Bowling a 300 game: 1 in 11,500.
12. Injured by a toilet: 1 in 10,000.
All that said, the following have ZERO scientific chance of happening: the terminally sick healed, blind seeing, deaf hearing, lame walking. Yet we've witnessed these in our lifetime.
In fact, consider the strictly scientific probability the UNIQUE YOU ever existed:
1. Random chance matter evolved to perfectly become a man and a woman with the symbiotic capacity to produce a new, unique human person: 1 in a gazillion (to the gazillionth power).
2. Probability the exact dad and mom came together: 1 in a gazillion.
3. Probability the one sperm hooked up with the one egg: 1 in 300 million.
You get the idea.
In the "UNIQUELY YOU LOTTERY" your chances were ONE in infinity! YOU are a miracle. YOU have been purposely, fearfully and wonderfully made! (Psalm 139:14)
So, duly noting that many purchase lottery tickets because they don't trust an infinitely loving God, if you have the audacity to purchase a lottery ticket in faith, God can work through such audacity. (If you do win, we'd be grateful for your meager $20 million donation to Mass Impact, to help us advance personal, marriage, family, parish and world revival! :)
And if you're not about chance, consider this: All who participate in our upcoming Family Emmaus will more fully encounter God alive in their families. Truly, is there anything of greater value? This great day will take place Sunday, August 12 at St. Joan of Arc. GO: ILoveMyFamily.us. |
| | | FAMILY PORTRAIT SERIES:
Meet the Findleys
"Our marriage would likely be over if it were not for Mass Impact. The pain and struggle in our marriage, from the sinfulness of our pasts and from the broken disorder caused by pornography, and a seemingly insurmountable grief, was a battle that we were loosing fast."
