"Proverb, I'm gonna need that pop tart". WHAT????

As I wind down my thoughts from my Summer musicianary trip to Cambodia, I have to tell this story. I was talking with my boy Aaron Monrok the other day and I forget what made me think of it but I had a flash back. We were in the van on our way to some remote village. We had stopped so some of us could revolutionize (ask me by email lol). A few of the teammates were walking around and engaging the natives. I took the time to go back to the van and have a snack. We were encouraged to bring stuff from home to help with being so far away from home, and nothing does that like...... a Pop Tart! So I got to the back seat of the van and was digging my pop tart out of my bag when team member Mike Kultun came to our van. He was saying how they just met and prayed with this woman. Meanwhile I was hearing but not really listening to Mike talking. I was all into how good my pop tart was gonna be. As Mike continued on, I found my Pop Tarts and got them out of my bag. No sooner than I had opened them and raised one to my waiting mouth when I hear the words " "Proverb, we're gonna need those pop tarts"! Surely Mike had no idea what he was saying. Surely he knew you don't try to separate a man and his pop tart, especially this man. Mike was buggin! My response was "What"!!?? He repeated his statement like was actually gonna give him my snack. Then it hit me. What a display of selfishness. How did I look to a van full of missionaries? It was just one pop tart, I had more. The sad part was I was encouraged by most teammates to hold on to it, as it was mine and I brought it from home for me. As conviction buckled me in the back seat of the van, I offered up my Pop Tart. I realized that was a small price to pay for being on such a great adventure with God. Then the greatest thing happened as I offered it up, some more food from another van was miraculously provided. I felt like Abraham when he saw the ram. My pop tart had been spared! Well, you get the picture. Anyways, the point is every day we will get tested. The question we have to ask our self is..... When asked to, will we give up our pop tart?
