Pastor commits suicide after telling congregation that God was not hearing him.


Rev. Teddy Parker, a Macon, Georgia pastor killed himself a few days after telling the congregation at his church that God was not hearing him an he no longer felt a connection to God.
"I will try to pray but I do not feel like God is hearing me," Parker said tp his congregation, "I try to serve but I don't feel like God is using me. And there are times in your life when God purposely withdraws from you, he doesn't withdraw for the sake of leaving you but he withdraws so that you can grow and mature".
Rev. Parker, a father of two, shot himself in the head with his own gun following Sunday service at Bible Mount Zion Baptist Church while his family and congregation were still at his church waiting for him for the next service.
"When he didn't show up, they went looking for him", a church member, Russell Rowland, told the media. "I'm very surprised because he did not preach that, he preach totally against it. It is something that the congregation don't really understand".

Apparently he wants to go and ask God what went wrong in their relationship.
