39th President Jimmy Carter

Proverbs 22:1-4

New International Version (NIV)
22 A good name is more desirable than great riches;
    to be esteemed is better than silver or gold.
Rich and poor have this in common:
    The Lord is the Maker of them all.
The prudent see danger and take refuge,
    but the simple keep going and pay the penalty.
Humility is the fear of the Lord;
    its wages are riches and honor and life 

James Earl "Jimmy" Carter, Jr. (born October 1, 1924) is an American politician and member of the Democratic Party who served as the 39th President of the United States from 1977 to 1981 and was awarded the 2002 Nobel Peace Prize, the only U.S. President to have received the Prize after leaving office. Before he became President, Carter served as a U.S. Naval officer, was a peanut farmer, served two terms as a Georgia State Senator and one as the Governor of Georgia, from 1971 to 1975.[2]

Anyone that lives in Georgia knows that President Carter is a gift that continues to give. Along with his entire Family they have built an outstanding Foundation Habitat for Humanity. They have been building houses over 30 years for the homeless.  President Carter has bragging rights for his efforts. The Humility in his soul is so priceless he won't brag.. Georgian's are so lucky to have his grandson Jason Carter with political ambition
As a random act of kindness help some one less fortunate than you.  Be a Blessing give a Blessing!
