:32:00
But then I have a better situation
than most people realize.

:32:04
When I have a need, I just pray for it.
:32:07
Justlike the van that I have now.
:32:10
I felt I had a need for it.
:32:13
So I began to pray,
and then I began to go price vans.

:32:16
But I didn't feel like my prayers
and the prices I found on the vans...

:32:20
just coincided the way they ought to
'cause they were far out of my reach.

:32:25
But stlLI, I feltlike if the Lord
wanted me to have a van, I'd get one.

:32:28
So in the process, a couple of weeks
after I'd given up the idea...

:32:33
of finding one that I could afford...
:32:35
I ran into a man, and he had a van.
I was looking at it.

:32:40
He gave me the price on it.
I told him, "That's out of my range. "

:32:43
He said,
"I've got a friend over in Marianna...

:32:46
"that has a brand-new '79 van.
:32:49
"It's been on his lot for eight months...
:32:53
"and he's priced it down to $5,000
where it can be bought. "

:32:56
He said, "I know it can be bought
for $5,000."

:32:59
That's kind of the range I was looking for.
:33:01
And sure enough, I called the man.
He brought it to me...

:33:04
and in the process of three hours,
I owned the van.

:33:08
God made all things...
:33:11
that was made.
:33:13
All things that was made.
:33:15
And he looked on it, and pronounced it...
:33:19
good and very good!
:33:23
He made all these things
that we've got today.

:33:27
And he said it was good and very good.
:33:30
But you could
go to the extreme on anything.

:33:38
Make a hog of yourself.
:33:41
But as long as you let it golike God
intended it, you need never worry.

:33:46
He'll give you power and strength
and wit to take care of the deaI.

:33:51
There was a huge oak
right on the bank of the creek.

:33:54
I went and stood under the oak
and I said:

:33:56
"Lord, I don't know if you want me
to have this lot or not.

:33:59
"But if you do, well, then you make it
possible for me to have it. "
