<TITLE>07. Par 26-30</TITLE>L-26 ...?... I believe I can hold you...?... Let us bow our heads. Heavenly Father, this bright eyed...?... not knowing what lays down the road, none of us does. But the father and mother, they want her to stay in the straight and narrow road, that the beautiful little gift...?... such a beautiful little...?... But they brought it so that...?... How their little life...?... In the Name of Jesus Christ we ask it. Amen...?...
 Bring them in, bring them in,
 Bring them in from the fields of sin;
 Bring them in, bring them in,
 Bring the little ones to Jesus.
Oh, how... Don't you love little children? If people doesn't love little children, there's something wrong. Jesus said, "Except you become converted and become like one of these little ones, you'll not enter the Kingdom." No one... A father had two little girls back there, yet he wanted to bring them. I told him, "Bring them right ahead." See?

L-27 Except we are converted and become like these little children. You know what? You could hurt their little feelings. And papa and mama knows a lot of times, they get in trouble, give them a spanking. Why, in two minutes their little arms are right around you and forgot all about it. And that's the way we got to be. No matter what goes on, we got to be forgiving and kind to one another, and--and--and be like that, like little children, willing to--to forgive and forget, and--and like that. That's what we're--we're supposed to be.
And then when we do like that, we're coming near to the Kingdom of God. I believe two little girls is kinda bashful. Papa and mama had to walk up with them. Well, that's mighty fine. We just like that. We like bashful girls.

L-28 First time you see one can... Oh, these are them little singers, isn't it? Isn't this the ones that sings? I thought so. All right. Now, what's your name? Ruth? That's very pretty. Ruth is a very pretty name. I like it, like it real well. Now. And...?... name there? Myers, little Ruth Myers, she's one of our little singers here. Are they twins? Look a whole lot alike, don't they?
Our heavenly Father, we give to You this little girl. Which the father and mother says has never yet been dedicated to Thee and believed You, in service in the Kingdom of God. We lay hands upon little Ruth tonight, little Ruth Myers, and ask that the power of Almighty God, Who has given her a talent to sing, will continue to bless her, and may her life be dedicated to You, all the days that we're here on earth. We give her to You in the Name of Jesus Christ...?...

L-29 What's the little sister's name? Laura? All right, little Laura. My. Heavenly Father, we lay hands upon little Laura, that's also with a talent in a young age to sing the Gospel. Bless the talents of these children, Lord. And now, their lives is being dedicated to You by their parents.
Soon Lord, they'll be old enough to be baptized. When they begin...?... and really realize what's wrong and things, and begin to do wrong, then they must repent and be baptized. Until that time comes, Lord, we dedicate them to You. May You use their talents to Your glory. Use their life, give them a long happy life to serve You. We dedicate this little girl to You in the Name of Jesus Christ. Amen.
God bless you. Go, and may God be with you. And ever bless you in everything you do...?...

L-30 Oh, I--I just think they're so cute. I... My girls is getting to be big now, so I just kindy have to... I used to ride them piggyback. But they could almost give me piggyback now, they're so--so big, Becky especially, great big girl.
Now, let us open up the Word of the Lord unto Matthew the 15th--or the 5th chapter. And we will read just a portion, and then I will draw from this, the Lord willing, a little text for about fifteen, twenty minutes, and then we'll have the communion, and footwashing, and baptismal service. Will take us to about nine-thirty then, or a little later, to get finished.
