Do you ever stop to pick up a penny from the ground? Those small coins may not seem like much, but they can add up over time. Imagine if you collected all the pennies you found in just a month. How about a year? Well, there’s a man named Otha Anders who took it to the next level.
Otha, a teacher from Louisiana, had a unique hobby. Starting in the late 1960s, he began collecting pennies. It wasn’t about money or wealth for him; he simply enjoyed the process. Even when the government offered to pay $125 for every $100 worth of pennies turned in, Otha declined. He cherished his collection. But why pennies? According to Otha, each penny served as a reminder to offer a prayer. Whenever he stumbled upon one while pumping gas, walking in a store, or simply on the ground, he would stop and say a prayer. It became a meaningful ritual for him, a way to express gratitude and connect with God.
