<TITLE>02. Par 13-28</TITLE>L-13 I said, "Well, I tell you. We will go up then, about four o'clock, and get there for the breakfast. I'll hurry right back."

L-14 And when I got up there, Brother Shakarian wasn't there. And I walked in. Said, "Just what we were looking for!" And so that night, sometime, I got to come back home.

L-15   During that time, there had been a Baptist minister that had just laid right on Billy's shoulder, my son, and said, "You don't understand, sir." He said, "My wife is dying."

L-16 And he said, "Well, sir, when dad gets back." Said, "We're obligated to these people, that we come."

L-17 You know, in the prayer line, many times, going through, and maybe offering a prayer. But you... And sometimes a case goes deeper than that. See, God heals on condition, and there might be something in that person's life. And I don't care how much medicine the doctor would give them, they'd never get well until that thing is cleared up.

L-18   If you went into a doctor's office and told him you were sick, and told him your symptoms, and he was in a hurry, he would probably give you a little prescription with some anesthetic in it, of some sort, some aspirin. The doctor is merely trying to get rid of you, just at that time, 'cause he hasn't time. A real good doctor, before he give you the medicine, would diagnose that case, thoroughly, till he found out what was wrong, then give you the medicine.

L-19 And sometimes we find people going through these prayer lines, out across the nations, and they just run up and think that the Lord ought to heal them right then. But there is something maybe down in there, and we set before the Lord until He reveals that, what that is. There is something got... There's a--there's a reason for everything. And you've got to find the reason, first, and then you can find what to work on.

L-20   And this young fellow just kept persistent. And I got in the next morning around two o'clock. And about five, my son called me, and he said, "Do you know a girl named Jean Dyer?"
I said, "Jean Dyer, sounds familiar."
He said, "She said she used to play the piano for you."

L-21 "Oh," I said, "that isn't Dr. Dyer, the surgeon here, a famous surgeon in Louisville?"

L-22 Said, "That's--that's it. Well, his daughter Jean is dying over at the Saint Edwards Hospital in... or Saint Anthony Hospital, rather, in Louisville." And said, "Her husband has laid right on the steps all day."
"Well," I said, "well, I'll try to wedge it in today."

L-23 Said, "Now, she doesn't know she's got cancer. Don't tell her."

L-24   So, finally, that day, when I got over to the room; a fine young lady.

L-25 She had played the piano for me, in the... when I was at the auditorium, where I seen Brother Allen's people, here tonight. Brother Allen just left that same auditorium in Louisville. That's Memorial Auditorium. And Jean Dyer was the pianist at the church of the Open Door, the old synagogue. And so she had seen some great things that the Lord God had did. She told her father.

L-26 He just said, "That's pure psychology. The man is only reading the mind of the people. There's... He just guessed at that."

L-27 She said, "Daddy, it can't be a guess every time." See? Said, "It just can't be."
"Well," he said, "Jean, forget that stuff."

L-28   And she was engaged to a fine boy that was going to the Baptist seminary at the time. She got married and moved over to Rockford, Illinois, to where this boy's home was. And somehow or another she tried to hold on to her testimony. But the boy went out in secular work, and after while got almost away from the Lord.
