<TITLE>02. Par 7-13</TITLE>L-7 And then tomorrow night, the Lord willing, I want to speak on the subject of "My Guide." So if some of you that's out of town... And we want to try to start these services early if... I haven't talked with the pastor yet, but I wish you would start Sunday school real early in the morning. And church tomorrow night, maybe, if possible, begin at 6:30 or something. And that'll give the people an opportunity so if they want to stay... We can be out maybe by 8:30, and then some of them...

L-8 I met a lady today that's driving three or four, about... She said, if we got out 8 o'clock or 8:30, she'd get home around 2:30 or 3 o'clock the next morning, her husband going to work. So we won't be doing anything anyhow but loafing around, so--so let's just come on to church early. And we don't have... You know, we don't have to have a form about this; God is without form, you know, the Bible...?... So we hope that you're all here, and--all that can be.
Now, if you have your own services, remember, this is a interdenominational tabernacle where people...?... come. And most of our crowds are made up from out-of-town people.

L-10 Well now, if there happens to be a stranger here, I want to show you something. And I've just walked to the platform and I don't see a--I don't see ten people that I know. How many people here is from out of the city of Jeffersonville, raise your hands. See, ninety-nine percent. See? See? It's just friends. How many's here from a hundred miles away, raise up your hands. There's fifty percent of that, from over a hundred miles away. How many's here for over two hundred miles away, raise up your hand. Three hundred miles away, raise up your hands. Looky there. Four hundred miles away, raise up your hand. Looky here. Five hundred miles away, raise up your hand. Looky there, over a third of the congregation over five hundred miles away. See, it's just friends that gathers in from around...?... we're going to be here. So we're grateful for you, and we're here to help you. We're here to do all that we can for you.

L-11 And now, I just was reading back there some--a letter that my son just handed me of a lady that said this--coming this time will be thirty-five trips that she come hoping to be prayed for. Thirty-five times she's drove for hundreds of miles, thirty-five trips.
And then remember, there's about six hundred and something waiting on...?... the waiting list from around the world trying to get to for interviews. You see...?... pretty complicated. When we're just thinking about right here, it isn't too much. We could just hear that... See, it's around the world. And so we are...?...

L-13 Wonder if that lady's in the building tonight (thirty-fifth trip), that wrote a letter she'd be here tomorrow? For thirty-five times she's been here without being prayed for. I guess she's not in the building, maybe didn't even get to come. But I was just reading her letter back there.
Now, I've always tried to when I come down here on... When I'm at home...?... to talk about something not just to be talking, or not something that would please the people... I've tried to speak about something that would please God and help the people (You see?), for help, that we could all, no matter what church you belong to, what denomination, that you could be helped for a closer walk with God. And that's our reason of being here: a closer walk with God.
And when we find that the day as late as it is, and the drawing near of the Lord... I told my wife today, "If I don't get in a revival somewhere, I--I'm going to perish; I--I just can't stand it. I... Something's just inside me burning."
