From Our Pastor

The way some people attempt to know the will of God would make a great television series entitled “That’s Unbelievable.”
 
I read about a college sophomore who was in need of a car, but he wanted the car that God wanted him to have.  He had a series of dreams one night.  Everything was in yellow, everything!  Early the next morning he began to hit the used car lots, looking at one car after another.  Finally, he found what he believed to be God’s will for him: a yellow car, yellow inside and out.  He didn’t even ask to drive it.  He just bought it. 
 
Turned out to be a lemon.
