Well, it happened

One thing I said I NEVER wanted to be was be a preacher, even though Mr. William Young in Kinards, SC, called me "Preacher" from the time I was about six or seven. Well, this Sunday, I become an interim pastor. Whew!

I told the Lord I'd be glad to be a Godly businessman but not be in ministry. Then I told Him I'd be happy to serve Him in ministry, just don't make me a missionary. Then I told Him I'd be glad to be a missionary, just don't send me to Africa. Then I said that I would be thrilled to go to Africa as a missionary, just don't let me ever be a preacher in the Bible Belt. See what happens when you advise God?

If I had just listened to Mr. William.
