Guest guest Posted February 4, 2008 Report Share Posted February 4, 2008 NO PLACE FOR GOD “You may ask where I am now and how I can meet you now. But I am within your heart and we can meet without any effort.†– Shri Sai Samartha Satcharita, Ch. 44, Ovi 162. A gentle and well respected old Negro one day decided that he would like to become a member of the church near his home. He called on the pastor of the old fashioned church and told him of his desire. “My dear man†said the pastor with a touch of aloofness. “I do not think you will be happy here though I appreciate your good intention. Really you would be most uncomfortable among my people and I am afraid it would be quite embarrassing to you and perhaps to them. I suggest you think it over and meditate and see if God does not give you some direction.†A week later, the old Negro met the pastor on the street, stopped him and said, “Reverend, I took your advice and prayed and meditated and finally God sent me a message. He said I should not bother any more trying to join your church. He said that He’d been trying to get in there Himself for years without success.†( ) Looking for last minute shopping deals?
