To think that God would grace me in the other 3% is unthinkable. We should do what we can for the world from where we are.

It is staggering to think about what this percentage really means.

The answer is:
95 percent.
Currently, the world’s population totals more than 6.7 billion and grows at an average rate of around 80 million persons per year.
Asia, sub-Saharan Africa and Latin America, three regions of the world made up of mostly developing countries, account for most of the world’s increasing population.
