Last night I woke up with a scary thought! What if God chose to send me to Detroit! Would I go? I mean really...to me, Africa seems better than Detroit.
You see, I never have wanted to fully surrender to God's destiny in my life because it might include being stuck in Africa where McDonald's and Wal-Mart don't exist. Heaven forbid! God, please! I will do anything else but not Africa. I mean after all I am an American and I can do more for you in America! I promise I could...let me just show you.
Wait...hang on a second...let me add something to this prayer God...I love the South! I mean after all I am a southern American so I will just serve you in the South. Yeah, that's what I will do. I will serve you in the Southern part of North America. Ok?
But God if I may get a little more specific with you. There are parts of the South that are just a little too cold for me. I mean after all I was born and raised in Florida and me and cold don't like each other very much, so here is what I will do for you God - I will serve you! No applause necessary...remember, I am just your humble and obedient servant who is fully surrendered and sold out to declaring your incredible love to people! Yay me!
However, if I could do it in the Southern part of America, specifically Florida, then I am all in! And by the way...You are welcome. I know you want me all to yourself so I am here ready to serve you anyway I can in Florida.
Yep..that sums it up. I'm good if you are! Thanks for this little conversation we had tonight God. I feel much better. Detroit? That was a good one God! You are too funny.
