<TITLE>02. Par 6-8</TITLE>L-6 Good morning, sister. What's the little fellow's name? Frank Wayne Dabney. You wouldn't be related to Robert Dabney are you? Frank Wayne Dabney, how old is he? Eight weeks. Hasn't been in this cruel world very long. Well, he's the fruit of your union. And now you want to present him to God, that he might be a servant of His. Is that right, sister? God bless you. Well, I hold a little treasure here, a real cute one. Just look at that, little Frank Dabney.
Let us pray. Dear heavenly Father, in the days of Your walking here on earth in the form of man called the Lord Jesus, they brought to You little children, and You laid Your hands upon them, and blessed them, and said, "Suffer little children to come to Me and forbid them not, for such is the Kingdom." This mother gives into my arms this morning, this little lad, who I present to Thee. Pray, Lord, that You'll bless the little fellow, bless his home; may he be reared in a Christian home, in admonition of God may he be raised. And if there be a tomorrow, may he preach the Gospel if it's so ordained of Thee. Give him a long life, healthy. Bless his parents. May every good thing that You promised come upon this little boy. The mother has presented him into our hands, and the elders of the church; and now we present him to You. In the Name of Jesus Christ, may You bless this child. Amen. God bless you, little one. He's an awful sweet...?...

L-7 I'm was supposed to pray for them? We got a--some handkerchiefs here to be prayed over, but I'd rather do that after we start praying for the sick, and the anointing for the service comes. And then we... It'd be better if we prayed for them at that time.
Glad to see many of my friends in. I believe I see Brother Charlie Cox back there in the meeting. And I also see Brother John O'Bannon from Louisville. And many other friends around who I--I recognize. And so we're happy to have you in assembled with us this morning to serve the Lord.
And now, we are anticipating after a while to start a revival here for a few days. We are praying to this end. I feel that if God doesn't bring a revival, or put it upon our hearts, then the revival is our own effort. And then if we wait and He feels that it's time for a revival, then He impresses that on our hearts, then we feel to have the revival.

L-8 Another friend and... setting here. Brother Wood's father and mother, and one of our trustees here at the church. We're happy to have them this morning.
And going down the street yesterday, a fellow that lived here in the city, that was a pretty rough little fellow, and always liked him, and nice boy... And my wife lived next door to them. And he was kind of a singer and a musician. And he used to set over there and pat his foot, with a big cowboy hat on, and saw a fiddle. But he worked on the WPA. And one day something happened that always reminded me--or kept in my mind, rather, for a long time. It's never left.
