"We're praying in every blessing. I was sharing with a brother, and I said, now, people don't realize when I'm telling them to serve God, giving him everything, glorifying God, and that way you can pray about everything that goes on in your life. I said, not only do I preach that, I live that. I live that." [00:23:35] (16 seconds)
"Everywhere I turn, I know God's working things out. He said, we can do the $285. I believe that. Now, God's blessing that we're looking forward to our Christmas celebration next week. We need some folks helping us out. We've had a good planning meeting this last week online." [00:24:41] (13 seconds)
"And we were literally broke until about 5 o 'clock that Friday when the funds were made available, and I had some money. But up to the very last moment that I didn't have anything. And so we had time with the kids. We cut out little paper ornaments and snowflakes and hung them on the tree. Then we did the popcorn and cranberries, and we put that around the tree, and we listened to some songs. We had a good time." [00:34:22] (28 seconds)
"People sometimes, and the kids that we were buying, our kids would put these things aside or be excited for just a little while. And even adults sometimes, they appreciate things for a little while, but after that, it doesn't mean as much. But the gift of salvation, it gets sweeter and sweeter every single day." [00:39:50] (17 seconds)
"How much do you get on your knees before God? How many times do you come to Bible study and seek the face of God, learn God's word? How many times during the week do you just stop and just spend time in his presence and feeling what God wants you and understanding the direction of God? You see, so many times people are investing in all these different things. My Lord, one good time in God, God can pay all your bills." [00:43:06] (26 seconds)
"One good time in God, God can take care of all your depressions. One. good time in the Holy Spirit, and God can take away all those anxieties. Somebody said, I've got to take care of this. I've got to take care of family. I've got all of these things I've got to do. But when you just spend some quality time in God, he gives you peace that passes all understandings." [00:44:22] (21 seconds)
"There's nobody that can do for you what God can do for you. There's no gift that can help you like the gift of salvation. When something's missing in your Christmas, and one of the things we acknowledge here is that during this time, there's a lot of noise." [00:45:37] (18 seconds)
"There's a lot of things that take you away from serving God. And these distractions of the season can cloud your mind. And there's a way that's all you think about." [00:46:42] (10 seconds)
"There's nobody that can do for you what God can do for you. There's no gift that can help you like the gift of salvation. When something's missing in your Christmas, and one of the things we acknowledge here is that during this time, there's a lot of noise." [00:47:26] (18 seconds)
