He could have it, and I told Him the same thing you said you would, that I’d become a missionary and go to Africa. (That was the most desperate thing that I could think of at the time. It was at the bottom of my THINGS TO DO list.)

Well, He took me up on part of that; He did straighten out my life but never demanded that I go to Africa, (much to my relief).

That's fascinating. You made a deal with God, but then broke your end of the deal. I guess you think He'll just forget about it.

I hope in your business dealings with other people you treat them better than you treat God.

I told Him that if He was real and He could straighten out this mess of a life of mine, He could have it, and I told Him the same thing you said you would, that I’d become a missionary and go to Africa.

No, I didn't break any deal with Him. He straightened out my life and I gave it to Him.

I told Him that I'd even become a missionary and go to Africa, if He wanted. I simply neglected to type that part in, by accident. I know what I'm thinking but it doesn't always get down on paper and since it wasn't spelled wrong, the computer didn't tell me I left it out. No program for that yet, that I know of.
