<TITLE>02. Par 10-19</TITLE>L-10 So then, hear Brother Ungren, her son, this morning, singing, "How Great Thou Art." He has... He means more to him this morning than it did yesterday afternoon, because the great God of Heaven spared his precious, darling mother and sister.

L-11   Now, today, we are expecting a great time in the Lord. And I had two or three different texts here that I was looking at, and I didn't, couldn't figure just which one I would talk on this morning. One of them was, "Cast your cares on Him, for He cares for you. Now, if He cares, why not you?"

L-12 So then another one, Billy Paul, or not Billy Paul... My other son, Joseph, brought me this text a long time ago. He was sitting in the room one day, and he said, looking up towards the picture, and Billy... Or, Joseph is very fond of boats, like little boys; boats and horses, you know. And he said to me, "Daddy, has Jesus got a boat?"
And I said, "I don't know."

L-13   So then after he got up and went out, I happened to think, "Has He got a boat?" And I took a text from that, and just marked it down here on my book, "Has Jesus got a boat?" And I happened to think. When He was here on earth, He had to borrow a womb to be born in, a grave to be buried in, a boat to preach from, but He's the Pilot of the old ship of Zion. Sure, He has. But, and those texts that I was thinking, thinking maybe I could get them later, before we leave to go back.

L-14 You know, I like to speak from the tabernacle here, because it's our own church. We feel at liberty to say whatever the Holy Spirit says. At other places, even though the man wants to make you welcome, you feel kind of a little cramped because that--that you're in somebody else's church, and you want to be a gentleman enough to respect their--their thoughts and their doctrine.

L-15   Had a wonderful time this week down at Brother Burcham's place there. And I went into the factory where they made the cheese. I see he and his wife, and son and them, are present this morning. And always thought that a cheese factory would be something like other places I've been in, oh, kind of sloppy and dirty. My, I can say one thing, you can sure rest assure that place is not dirty. That was the cleanest place I ever went into, and especially in a factory. And I didn't realize; I thought, oh, maybe they'll make a hundred pound of cheese a day. And they make six tons each day, and three of the factories going. I thought, "Oh, my, who eats all those cheese?"

L-16 But the Lord has blessed this man. I had the privilege of being in his home, a very lovely home, a fine consecrated wife. And there's no reason why they shouldn't live for Christ each day, as they're doing. Met his sons, and they're very fine children. We're so grateful for this fellowship that we have one with another.

L-17 Found out their former pastor was a--a man that I know, Brother Gurley, a very fine man of the United Pentecostal faith, that I met years ago, Jonesboro, Arkansas. And didn't know that they were... that was his pastor, though.

L-18   Now remember the services this evening. And then, the Lord willing, next Sunday again we hope to speak. And then I think the following Sunday then I have to go to Chicago. Then I'll be gone for a while, I have to take the family back home, back, or back to Arizona so that they, the children, can enroll in school again. And then we quit pestering the pastor, taking his services.

L-19 So, so we are very grateful to Brother Neville for his hospitality, you know, of--of inviting me. And he is so, no... I like, brother, a man like that, where there's no guile, there's no selfishness, it's just genuine Christianity. I like that.
