I asked God


I asked God to take away my habit.
God said, No.
It is not for me to take away, but for you to give it up.
I asked God to make my handicapped child whole.
God said, No.
His spirit is whole, his body is only temporary
I asked God to grant me patience.
God said, No.
Patience is a byproduct of tribulations; it isn’t granted, it is learned.
I asked God to give me happiness.
God said, No.
I give you blessings; Happiness is up to you.
I asked God to spare me pain.
God said, No.
Suffering draws you apart from worldly cares and brings you closer to me.
I asked God to make my spirit grow.
God said, No.
You must grow on your own! But I will prune you to make you fruitful.
I asked God for all things that I might enjoy life.
God said, No.
I will give you life, so that you may enjoy all things.
I ask God to help me LOVE others, as much as He loves me.
God said…Ahhhh, finally you have the RIGHT idea.

God Bless !

I would like all my friends come to Easley , to The Neighborhood Church , and listen to a God call Minister , I believe that God has call a number of people to Preach { not all that preach are call } . If you listen you will be able tell which ones are call . God has call men and women into the Ministry . Many are call but few are chosen . Pastor David Bagwell has a anointing that God only give to few . His calling started when he was nine years old .
