COT:

My wife and I took a tour of the Naval Academy this weekend in Annapolis. The tour was fire – definitely recommend if you are ever in the area! Like many campuses, the USNA is full of buildings named after key donors. Our tour guide mentioned, however, that one of their biggest donors was Ross Perot. Many buildings were built with the donations he made to the university. However, none are named after him. Mr. Perot insisted that his name not be used, stating that a donation/gift is not really a gift if public acknowledgment is expected in return. When our guide said this, it reminded me of Matthew 6:1-4 “Be careful not to practice your righteousness in front of others to be seen by them.” “So when you give to the needy, do not announce it with trumpets.” “But when you give to the needy, do not let your left hand know what your right hand is doing.”
