Them : You are not doing your best.
Me : I am doing the best I can.
Them ; Your best is not good enough.
Me ; What you see, is what you get.
Them ; I don't like what I see.
Me ; It is what it is.
Them : So, what are your plans ?
Me ; Just waiting for my room.
Them : What room ?
Me ; God has promised a room for me in His mansions.
Read  John 14 : 1 -3
Them : Just one room ?
Me : One room is sufficient for me with God.
Them : Where is God ?
Me : One inch above your head
Or 50,000 years from here.
Them : How can that be ?
Me : He is omnipresent  and omnipotent.
Them : Big words.
Me : God is everywhere and knows everything.
Them : Lofty ideas.
Me : I believe in John 3 : 16.
Them : I am still thinking about that.
Me : Now is the time ! Acts : 16 -31.
