Rev. Teddy Parker, a Macon, Georgia pastor killed himself several
days after telling his congregation at his church that God was not
hearing him and no longer felt a link with God.
"I
try to pray but I don't feel just like God is hearing me,” Parker
thoug said ht to his congregation “I try to serve but I don't feel just like
God is using me. And there are occasions in your lifetime when God
purposely withdraws from you, he doesn't withdraw for the sake of
leaving you but he withdraws in order to grow and mature.”
