Observer
Pastor Vitale was driving from a church service to the house of friends who had invited her for dinner, when she spoke to the Lord about her need for mature teaching. Where is the church that will satisfy me? she asked, and, much to her surprise, the Lord answered, saying, Will you do it?
I want to change the world.
Pastor Vitale was driving from a church service to the house of friends who had invited her for dinner, when she spoke to the Lord about her need for mature teaching. Where is the church that will satisfy me? she asked, and, much to her surprise, the Lord answered, saying, Will you do it?
At that time Pastor Vitale was traveling 2-1/2 hours to work in Manhattan, and 2-1/2 hours back, 5 and sometimes 6 days a week. In addition, Pastor Vitale had been chronically ill since she was 12 years old, and was a physically weak and sickly person. In view of Pastor Vitale's circumstances at the time, it is understandable that she respectfully declined, saying, Lord, how can someone in my condition, who does not know, from day to day, whether they will be able to get up and go to work, make a commitment to study and teach on a regular basis?
