<TITLE>05. Par 16-19</TITLE>L-16 Becky looked around; she said, "Sarah, my sister, I want you to know something." She said, "I was here first." That's what the big church tries to tell us. "I was here first. And I've got all of daddy, and there's none left for you."
Oh, my. Poor little Sarah, it hurt her so bad, you know. Her little lips got to quivering, her big, black eyes colored up a little. She started to turn around. And I motioned my finger to her, like that, and stuck out my leg. So here she come. Her eyes brightened up, and she come and straddled my leg. But she was kind of topsy-turvy, as we call it down there. She... her... She hadn't been here very long, like the young church, you know. She was kind of unbalanced. So I... To keep her from falling, I put my arm around her and hugged her up close to me.
She laid there a little bit, and she turned her little head, looked up to her sister. She said, "Rebekah, my sister." Said, "It may be true that you've got all of daddy. But I want you to know one thing: Daddy's got all of me."
So that's the way I feel about it. I may not have the education, the qualification as a minister should have. But one thing I know... I may be a little topsy-turvy, but I want Him to have all of me. As long as He's holding, that's good enough for me.

L-17 And now, thank you for your fine support. It's getting late. Now, I know you have your services tonight. God bless you. And now, if ever I can be a favor to you, write me. I'm not trying to get your address. No. Many times, that's a publicity stunt that... I--I don't even... I've got one secretary, and one little desk setting at the end of a trailer. And that's how we're trying to answer letters. But it's the idea, if we can help you. Don't... Prayer cloth, I'll be glad to send you one, or anything I can. No charges, there's no charges to nothing.
And many times, we know it... said, "Write me." And then, the first thing you know, you keep building, building. You know how it is like that, because men has to have that support of the people to put tele--telecast on and radio message. I don't have any of those things. I don't need money. I--I...

L-18 Now, how could've man like our most gracious Brother Oral Roberts ever come to a meeting like this, when he has to have around ten to fifteen thousand dollars every day? How could he do it? He couldn't. That's all. He couldn't do it.
So therefore, I thank the Lord. Now, He never... He--He's--He's smart. And He's all--all wisdom. I ain't got gumption enough to do that. So I just stay--just like to stay Brother Bill, and go on wherever He leads me. If it's a little bitty place where there's nothing, why, I go there.
If He led me to Africa, I went there for two or three hundred thousand people, went over to India, five hundred thousand. But somehow, somebody just comes by and pays it off, and away we go. So I just live by faith; that's all. And so, I can go anywhere He calls me. No matter where it is, I can go (See?), 'cause He's--I have... Well, if I had to worry about getting up fifteen, twenty-five thousand dollars a day (Whew.), my, I'd be more bald-headed than I am now.

L-19 Speaking of bald-headed, a little joke on my wife... Here not long ago, I was combing them two or three hairs, you know. And she said, "Billy, you're almost completely bald-headed."
I said, "But I haven't lost a one."
She said, "Pray, tell me where they are."
I said, "All right, sweetheart, I will. When you tell me where they was before I got them, wherever they was then, they're waiting for me to come to them. For the Bible said, He not... "The hairs of our head were numbered. He'd raise everything up and nothing lost."
