Meating Out How To Love God

Hi, I'm Joanne Vickner, Memaw with It's Storytime Memaw, an answered prayer for stories that point children to God on the Truth Network for kids. Your chosen Truth Network Podcast is starting in just a few seconds.

Enjoy it, share it. But most of all, thank you for listening to the Truth Podcast Network. This is the Truth Network. Walked over fire for at least 13 hours. Dolly's style for tender corned beef. Welcome to the Christian Car Guy radio show. I say this calls for action.

And now Angus stake brisket smoked over fire for at least 13 hours. So speaking of get you wondering this morning, so I bet you're wondering, where is Robbie going with that intro? So more today, we are meeting out. Get the idea of meeting out.

How to love God. And today we're live from the butcher block. It's 247 East Fifth Street in downtown Winston Salem. I know we're national city. If you can't join me, I understand. But we'd love to see if you're in the area. And not only am I here, but we got Nikita Koloff, the Russian nightmare.

He is signing books and doing autographs. And so we got all this stuff is we are meeting out. How to love God today on the Christian Car Guy show. So you may have heard that famous meeting idea from Arby's, the whole idea of steak. And oh, my goodness, are we surrounded by it today?

And then Nick Jonas with his wonderful song from Camp Rock called Introducing Me. And you remember, if you listen carefully in there, he said, Remember, you asked for it. In other words, you're asking how, right? God, how do we love you? So, as always, like Sesame Street, today's show is brought to you by Hebrew letter. And the today's Hebrew letter is the letter pay. And so the letter pay, as you might know, is like God's face or God's mouth. And that has everything to do with his blessing, right? The Aaronic blessing, make thy face shine upon me. But few, if any, you'll ever hear, quote, the last verse of number six, which comes right after the Aaronic blessing. And so we're going to if I'm hope you're curious about that.

We're going to share a little bit about that today. And I'm sure you know, if you listen regularly, I've been in the 119th Psalm, my regular daily podcast is that as we've been studying this, and I've been memorizing it actually, since last July, there's a few verses, as you may know, I'm actually up to I've got memorized this morning through verse 166, 10 more to go. And so as you recite this thing time and time and time again, in order to memorize it all the sudden, you begin to see things that you would not have seen if you hadn't done that. So very, very, very cool to me, in the pay section, which again, we're, we're seeing the face of God, and we're getting the idea that Hebrew letter that has to do with the face of God. So the seventh verse in the pay section is verse 135, actually. And it is the seventh time in the Psalm, that the psalmist asked to be taught the statutes or hook them.

So the way the verse reads in English is 119 135 says, make thy face to shine upon thy servant, to shine upon thy servant and teach me thy statutes. So you might know that the that the Jews went around the city of Jericho seven times. And you may also know that in the Jewish wedding, the bride goes around the groom seven times. And so not unlike those here we have the seventh time that the psalmist King David is asking to be taught these statutes. And it's in the seventh verse of the pay section. So it kind of begs that question, like what in the world is a statute?

And so I'm glad you asked. And so interestingly, that word in Hebrew, and you may know that Hebrew is the letters are pictures. And so there's just two letters, if the word hook them, and all they are is a hat, which the meaning of that word is like marriage or union. And so wow, it's kind of cool that teach me these things that are obviously have to do with being united with you, God. And the second letter is a cuff, which is we talked about proximity, how close we are to God, how holy we are.

Right. And so here's this idea of our relationship with God and how holy we are. And therein is the basic idea, the pictures that they're telling us about what a statute is. So if you really put that together, as I have, and I've been thinking a lot about it, what what I really think King David was saying was teach me how to love you, God.

And so what does that look like? Like, it's a really cool concept, like, God, teach me how to love you the way that you want to be loved. And I bet you, when you think about it, you have this with all the people you're in close relationship with.

They have statutes. In other words, my wife, if you knew her, you would know that one of her statutes is going to love my wife. Well, you just kind of know if your husband that she expects me to kiss her when I leave in the morning, no matter what time, no matter what's going on.

And if you know me, you know, I quite often leave crazy early. Now, she doesn't care all that much about whether or not I kiss her when I come home, but it's imperative. It's one of her statutes, I can tell you, because I'm here about it three or four times during the day if I don't kiss her goodbye. It's just part of of one of her statutes. And you might know that of the statutes that God's just God describes for us, he describes one of the statutes is that of Passover. So it's about holidays. Well, if you think about the people that you love when it comes to holidays, they have statutes, they have ways that they'd like to have their holiday celebrated. Like my youngest daughter, Mariah, I can assure you, I just promise you that if you're in my house on Thanksgiving Day and right after Thanksgiving dinner, according to Mariah in her statute is you have to watch the movie Elf because that opens up the Christmas Eve. And I mean, it's a tradition. It's something that she's got to do in order for her to feel, you know, the idea of Jesus is coming.

Don't ask me how it all works together. But I'm just telling you that I know my daughter and I know one of her statutes is you've got to watch Elf on Christmas Eve. I mean, and so with that in mind. Right. I'm curious as as you've asked God, I bet you have many times.

God, teach me how to love you or teach someone like maybe your dad or your mom or your spouse. What? I'm very, very curious about their statutes. Of course, we are live today from the butcher block.

Butchers block, actually, in downtown Winston-Salem, Nikita Koloff's here. And oh, my goodness, if we're it's like a stakeout. I'm just telling you.

But you call us with your hook them with the way that you love somebody based on what you know their statutes are. Eight, six, six, three, four, eight, seven, eight, eight, four, eight, six, six, three, four truth. You know, I have just marveled.

I mean, marveled at here. King David. He he he is asked seven times in this song. And every time he asked, by the way, he kind of loads up on the word that is in that psalm before he asked for the statutes. In other words, he waits for the big moments between him and God before he says, teach me how to love you.

Teach me. You know, and you might remember Jesus said, if you love me, you will keep my commandments. Well, there's this idea of commandments that's in the way that we love people.

Right. There are certain things that if you know them, this this is this is a way that you're going to love them well. So I'm really I'm dying to hear some of these ideas and we're remote. So, you know, our producer, Carmen, is going to take your calls at eight, six, six, three, four, eight, seven, eight, eight, four, eight, six, six, three, four truth. And so I would love to hear how you do that, how you do that, maybe with someone that you love close to you, that this kicked off something in your mind or.

Even God, I would love to know, maybe God has clicked off to you. You know, here's my statutes. Well, for me, you know, personally, since I'm in the 119 Psalm, you know, it was back last July that God told me, Robbie, I want you to memorize it. And so for he told me, he told me, Robbie, this is how you could love me when all my goodness, what it has done for my relationship, for God to have actually, you know, fulfilled that commandment from him. Like, Robbie, this is something I want you to do.

You may be sixty six years old, but your memory, you can do it. And all what a journey as he and the Holy Spirit take me every day through each of these verses. And when you keep saying, teach me your statutes seven times, like if you get to verse 166, you'll have said it seven times. You understand that, wow, this must be a big deal because he keeps asking that same question and he asks it in really, really cool places. You know, for example, right in the in the first time he asks it is in the bet section, which the bet has to do with the blessing like the Barak, like, you know, this is like the Barak that we're going to talk about here in a few minutes in their ironic blessing.

Right. And this idea is that, you know, God wants to bless you, which actually means he wants to be himself around you. And in order to do that, you've got to got to be yourself around him. And so here's this opportunity to to be blessed. And one of the ways that we can do that, he says, you know, blessed art thou, O Lord, teach me thy statutes. Call us. I'd love to hear your call on the other side of this break. You're listening to the Truth Network and truthnetwork.com. So we are meeting out how to love God today on the Christian Car Guy show.

We are live at the butcher block, 247 East Fifth Street in downtown Winston-Salem. And how fun. I mean, really fun because I have with me the Russian nightmare himself, Nikita Kolov.

Shota, shota, tartar steak, tartar, something something like that. Great to be with you, Robbie. Great to be out here, man. Butchers block. Eric, the owner is such an incredible guy and such a good man. Robbie, I look at that display cabinet of of meat. You want to talk top of the line? I'm like, wow. If you're a meat connoisseur or carnivore. Yeah.

This is the place to be, right? Like this wagyu. How did they say it? Wagyu Japanese beef that cost about crazy amounts of money. And, you know, I wrestled in Japan. Oh, yeah. Way back in the day.

Yeah. Back in the 80s. And I remember even back then, mid 80s, we go to Ribera Steakhouse, it was called.

And it was the most tender steak I'd ever had. They said they say, yeah, they they told me anyway. They go, yeah, these cattle never even their hosts never even touched the ground.

They just feed them and support them and play a music and all that. Yeah. Yeah.

I'm like, I guess that's what makes it so they finally get the Russian sickle. That's right. Anyway. So, yeah, that Japanese beef male is unbelievable.

The fact that that Eric gets it over here is amazing. So. So, yeah.

So how fun. If you're in the area, you can come by. Nikita's got his books. He's well, we've got pictures he assigned. You know, you get a chance to meet the Russian nightmare himself. And we've had people lining up to do that already. So it's it's we've got to got some folks turning out. And we're going to be here till noon, actually, till Nikita shows live at 1230. We're going to be here till one. Yeah. Be here actually till till one. And yeah. And taking pictures, signing the books in my life story.

One's inspirational, one's motivational. And yeah, we're just having fun out here. So as we've talked about in today's show, we know you may be in Washington or you might be in New York City, wherever you may be. And you're alone. Robbie, I can't get to the meat. OK, no worries.

You can get to us by calling us at 866-348-7884. The question of the day is, as the psalmist said in 119 Psalm, we've been talking about King David asked seven times. Teach me your statutes, which we've talked about is kind of teach me how to love you, God.

And he said it in such a way like he was bringing God down the walls of God so that he would literally teach him how to love him. When you think about it in your life, you've got a daughter that, you know, she's got statutes in order to love her well. She wants, you know, this to happen at Christmas or your wife. Like in my case, I can tell you that that my wife has certain expectations. Like I said, when you leave in the morning, you got to kiss her by.

If you don't, you're going to hear about it about three or four times during the day. She has statutes. And so the question is, what are God's statutes? And we're blessed to have a caller. We have Mrs. J is with us today again. So good to have you with us.

So I'm very interested. How do you meet out love to God? I'm just like the psalmist, knowing that.

Oh, my God. I'm going to be doing the over and over again for the mistakes I'm making. I realize that I really isn't anything good that was within us without him. So I asked God to please help me. He changed my mind, my heart, my soul. And I can best say it with my poem that the song that I have written. Created me a clean heart, O Lord.

Every new life here is behind me. And created me a clean mind, O Lord. I renew my spirit within me. And take my own spirit away from me, Lord. You give me what you need. A brand new, brand new, brand new song. Now renew my spirit within me.

And now I have to do that and ask him to help me because I realize that nothing gets good inside of me without him. You set such a high bar. I don't know how many of you. I know I can't top that one. I just want to say. Pretty impressive.

You don't want me singing today for sure. Praise God. That was awesome.

It was awesome. Thank you, Mrs. J. I'm so grateful for you. For your love for God. For your love for God. You bring the pieces of my life back together. Amen. I'm a puzzle game.

I'm becoming the supernatural woman that he wants me to become. Well, you bring up, Robbie, you bring up an interesting point. You know, the puzzle, puzzle, puzzle. And I've said this, you know, for anyone out there who's ever put a puzzle together and for whatever reason maybe one piece is missing.

So here's a visual for everybody out there listening. And there's a piece missing. Well, that's an illustration really of our life that without Jesus. Right. He's the missing piece to the puzzle. So you can be pursuing life and success and all of that as we all do. But without that last piece to complete the puzzle.

Right. Without Jesus, you're incomplete. So thank you, sister. Thank you for that song.

So awesome. I appreciate it so much, Mrs. J. So, you know, we're going through these seven ways. Again, we're down here at the butcher block. We'd love to have you come join us.

Certainly take advantage of all that's going on. But also, I'd like you to call 866-348-7884. How do you meet out your love for how do you ask God, how do I love you? And what does that exactly look? So we talked about the first time he said it that King David said it was in the bet section, which has to do with the blessing that the ironic blessing. Right. Where you might remember that King David was all about that. I mean, because he served God with a whole heart.

Right. And so in that bet section, he asked God, you know, how do I do that? And then he says, I've hidden my word in my heart that I may not sin against you. And then he's then like right after he's eaten, he says, Blessed art thou, O Lord, teach me your statutes. In other words, right after the blessing, he says that he comes back and says, Teach me how to love you.

And what does that look like in your life? 866-348-7884. We've got plenty of time. We're going to be here till one come down, meet Nikita and have a chance to maybe even experience the Russian sickle for yourself. I don't know. Call us 866-34-TRUTH. You're listening to the Truth Network and truthnetwork.com. We are meeting out how to love God today on the Christian Car Guy show. And so, you know, you might have heard that stuff from Arby's talking about the meats, but we got them.

We got a beat, don't we? Because we are here at the butcher's block 247 East 5th Street in downtown Winston-Salem today. If you happen to be in the area and we're having fun, we got Nikita Koloff, the Russian nightmare. He's signing autographs and and he's got pictures and and books and all this stuff as well.

And you can get to meet him. And again, I'm here. But we have the owner of the butcher block with us, Eric Everhart. And welcome, Eric. Thank you.

Thank you so much. We appreciate you coming over and seeing what we have to offer. Yeah. And what's really cool for us is to have partners like you, the wonderful Christian business people. Yes, sir. Right.

That are out there in the marketplace for Christ. And and, you know, this is your God's been blessing your business. This is your second location and soon to be a third. I understand. Yes, sir.

Most definitely. And so really, really neat products that I don't think you can really find almost anywhere else in the country. Right. Yeah.

We have a lot of very unique items that you won't find in your typical grocery stores by far. So you've got to tell us about this. Why? You know, everybody needs to learn about you.

I can't even say it. It's why you the way the Wagyu Wagyu. A lot of people are familiar with Kobe beef. Wagyu beef and Kobe beef are pretty much the same thing. Kobe beef has to come from the region of Kobe, Japan, in order to be classified as Kobe. But it is from a Wagyu cow. So there's I want to say there's four different breeds of Wagyu. But the quality we offer is the highest quality.

It's a five Japanese and it's got the the marbling of the 10 to 12 grade, which is the highest you can get. It's like eating butter. And so really cool. That's all here. We would love for you to wait.

I also would love to hear how you meet out really seriously. How do you love God? What's what's the way that you ask him? It's just like the psalmist asked in the hundred nineteen psalm.

He asked seven different times. Teach me your statutes. Like, how do I love the you know, how would you exactly do that? Like, how do you love specifically somebody in your household?

What's their thing that you got to do in order for them to feel loved? Right. Exactly.

And so our number, we would love for you to call is eight six six three four eight seven eight eight four eight six six three four truth. If you're dealing digitally gifted. And so as I talked about, like in the holidays, you know, my one daughter, you've got to watch Elf on Thanksgiving in order to meet her statute for for for making it a holiday.

How about you? Is there somebody in your household that has a statute or way that, you know, OK, if I do this, they're going to feel loved? Definitely. My daughter, like you were saying with the Christmas thing from the time Thanksgiving as Christmas music until New Year's Day.

Right. And, you know, I'm not a big person on Christmas lights, but I can tell you that my wife is. And so it's one of the statutes in the Dilmore House is that shortly after Thanksgiving, I'm to get out the ladder and all of all the stuff to make the to make the outside of the house look like Christmas.

Yes, I definitely understand what you're saying. We do that as well as both of our shops to kind of go above and beyond as far as the decorating, because it puts everyone in this in the in the season of. And so are you surprised really that God outlined in such great detail how to handle all of our holidays? Because he had a way that he wanted you. Oh, it's amazing to celebrate his sons.

Yes. The picture in Passover of what the lamb was going to do is a very specific way that the Jews, you know, they they they do that to this day. And so it's really, really cool to me that King David, he spent all these seven times to to ask. And so I was going to go through those a little bit to give you an idea that the second time he asked is actually in the Dalit section, which the letter Dalit in Hebrew has to do a lot with humility. And literally the beginning of the Dalit section says, I cleave to the dust to give you an idea of that.

That's what it is. But actually, the second verse is where he goes for he goes for asking about teach me your statutes. He says, I've declared my ways and you heard me. In other words, I've I've confessed my stuff, God. And you heard me teach me your statutes. And then the third time he comes into the hay section and he actually begins that section by saying, teach me the way of your statutes. And I will keep them until actually the because you may wonder, what does that mean?

Because Robbie? Well, it means that when he blessed Abraham, he said, I'm going to bless him because he did this, this, this and this till the end of his life. And so King David is using that terminology to say, Lord, I'm going to keep those things for you because I love you until the end. And one of my favorite places he asks God how to love him is in the head section. And the head section really has to do with being united with Christ. It starts out thou my portion, oh, Lord. In other words, God's part of us. He's in our heart. Right.

And how cool is that? So the the actual last verse in the head section, King David says the whole earth is full of your loving kindness. I don't know if you thought about that, but the whole earth is full of his loving kindness. And then he says, teach me your statutes. And so again, he's seven times he asked for this and he waits till the seventh time is the last one where he's talking about the Aaronic blessing and where he says, make thy face to shine upon thy servant.

Right. It's the it's like, you know, may the Lord bless me and keep me and whatever. And then he says, teach me your statutes. And so, Carmen, do we have any calls? Anybody willing to jump in? I need one.

Eight, six, six, three, four, eight, seven, eight, eight, four. And again, really cool. We're here at the butcher's block in downtown Winston-Salem. And you've got a location in Lexington. Yes, sir.

We've been there this July will be five years that we've been there. And it's really neat that you've got your son in the business. Yeah. My whole family's in the business.

Yeah. And in fact, he's here today. He is my oldest son, Nicholas. He's actually the one who pushed me to do the business. It had been a dream of mine two years prior to him being born since roughly twenty eight, twenty nine years ago.

Which is cool. You were in the grocery business and you saw how everybody else was doing it. But God had given you a spark to say, you know, exactly. I'd like this. I'd really like a chance to do this the way that I think it ought to be done. Most definitely. And that's the way I look at it.

And as you just said, God has blessed me in multiple ways for me to be in the position I'm in right now. And really, to be able to bless people with like their holidays, like that's a big time of year for you guys, right? It's huge. Yeah. Every every every major holidays is we're a destination. So do you sell a lot of lamb at Passover? We do. We do.

And we do a lot of fish, you know, for for Lent. Really? Yes. That's cool. Yeah. And you got all sorts of fish, too, don't you? Yeah, we can we can pretty much any order anything you would like.

It's all market price. It's all fresh. There are a couple of things that do come in frozen, but about 98 percent of it's fresh. So. So, yeah, holidays are a big thing when it comes to food. And don't you think it's cool?

I think it's really. Oh, I do get a big part of the holidays that God described. The food is pretty much, you know, a big part of what's going on, because in a way, you know, you're you're you're. Joining with him even every time you take communion. Right. It has to do with.

Right. The bread and the wine. And so you guys do that, too. Yes, we do have we have a nice selection of wines. Breads we have had occasionally.

We just can't find a vendor that we can we can provide us a consistent source. So, yeah, you guys have you've got it covered again. We would love to hear how in your family you meet out lover. You know how you ask God, how do I love you?

Eight, six, six, three, four, eight, seven, eight, eight, four. Again, we're going to be here till one o'clock because Nikita's got his show is going to be live at twelve thirty. And so you can come by, have him sign an autograph, get you know, he's got his books and his pictures and all that stuff. So all available. The address again to put it in your in your if you're in the area, put it in your navigation is 247 East Fifth Street, which is right downtown Winston-Salem, right across from Bailey Park, if you know where that is. Pretty easy to get here. Yes, it is. And what a beautiful store it is. You guys have been open what? Next week will be one year. OK, so it's similar location. Yes, it is really, really brand new. Yes.

And we would love to have you come join us. So I promised, you know, that there is an end to the Aaronic blessing that most people, you know, when they quote the blessing. They don't put the end of it on there.

They just use it. So you hear it a normal way. But let me share with you what's actually in Numbers Chapter six, because there's a critical part to it. So you're familiar with probably the Lord bless thee and keep thee. The Lord make thy face to shine upon thee and be gracious. I love that part.

He says, Eric's my favorite. OK, so the Lord lift up his countenance upon thee and give the Shalom, give them peace. And here's the part that most people don't quote, but it's spectacular. And they shall put my name upon the children of Israel and I will bless them. And so here's a piece of the puzzle for you is Nikita talked about the piece of the puzzle is Jesus. OK, well, think about whose name is on you, Christian. And with his name on you. Right. And think about even the twenty third song. Right.

It leads me in paths of righteousness for whose namesake. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. It's all in there.

It's part of the blessing. We'll be right back with so much more from the butcher block. Butchers block. You're listening to the Truth Network and Truth Network dot com. We are meeting out how to love God today from the butcher block and we are in Truth Network dot com. Very excited to hear your stories and how you ask God how you love him. And we would love that for you to call in at eight six six three four eight seven eight eight four.

We're down at the butcher's block in downtown Winston-Salem. But I'm so excited because we have a wonderful listener on the line. Mary Ellen from Salt Lake City, who I actually got to meet a few weeks ago. Mary Ellen, you're on the Christian Car Guy show. Good morning, Robbie.

Yes. How are you? You know, I've just been chuckling because like I said to you when I came in there, I just love your voice and your laughter. Your laughter truly does tickle my heart.

I'm doing great. And I've just been enjoying your show this morning. I wish I could come to the butcher block because I am a carnivore and I love you. Yeah, I love carnivores.

Yeah. So it sounds like you're having a great time there. I sure did enjoy meeting all of you people. You're just so wonderful.

All of you. And you know, while I was staying in Sook Wave Arena, North Carolina, I hope I pronounced that right. When I was staying there, I want you to know that I shared with at least at least 25 people at Truth Network. And told them how much this station has helped me come to the Lord and learn about Jesus and learn about reading the Bible, because I've only been reading the Bible for going on two years now.

Yeah. You have a phenomenal story, Mary Ellen. As I got a chance to meet Mary Ellen, she came to the station from Salt Lake City two weeks ago. In fact, you were there that day, Nikita, while we were waiting for her to get there.

And from what you tell me. Well, I remember. I remember you were like, yeah, I don't know where she is.

I'm supposed to be meeting somebody. So you had been a Mormon for a number of years. But God has used this station to really help you get more connected to the Bible and Christ. Can you share a little bit of your story?

I'd love to hear it. Well, yes, I was born and raised Mormon. And I'm talking very staunch Mormon.

I never missed a meeting. My father was in the bishopric. I was the one child out of ten kids that I never could grasp Mormonism.

I loved it. The people were good to me. The church was good to me. I mean, they were wonderful.

Really great social life. But I never believed that I could become a goddess, and I never believed my husband to become a god. I always knew from the time I was a child that there was only one god. And so anyways, listening to the Truth Network got me to, just got all that brainwashing out of my head, you know, learning what the Bible says. Now everything in my life, I don't, well, I don't even leave my bedroom in the morning without talking to God and asking Him to direct my life, you know. When I get in my car, I say, Jesus, take the will.

I mean, I love Jesus so much. Now there's a Christian car guy term if I've heard one. And my grandkids hear it too, you know, they put their seatbelt on and they'll chuckle and say, Jesus got the will.

We're always safe. That is so, so beautiful. And you know, it's just, you know, how cool, from my perspective, Mary Ellen, you know, I'm a car salesman from North Carolina. And God put me on this adventure where I could meet wonderful people from all over and sometimes all over the world. But today, I mean, you know, here we are connected, you know, via telephone line, you know, in so many ways. And what connects us is what you were talking about, Nikita, is that piece of the puzzle with Jesus, right? It is. And it's interesting to hear her say, I mean, I'm just thinking of Ephesians.

Can you hear me? Yeah. Interesting to hear her say Ephesians. I think Ephesians four or five talks about there's one Lord, one faith, one baptism.

Essentially, there is one God. Right. And so what a what an amazing testimony.

Wow. It's really, really what a blessing. I know you blessed a lot of people today, Mary Ellen. Thank you for calling in today. Well, let me tell you, say one more thing.

You know, because this is so important. You know, when I came up there, I had phoned to let you guys know that I was coming and I was so excited to meet you all. And you were just leaving. And I said, oh, please don't let him leave. And anyway, you stayed and waited around for me. And I appreciate that. But what was so wonderful is I get there and you guys.

Oh, my gosh. You loved me like like we've known each other forever. That's the thing about Jesus is when I mean, we're brothers and sisters in Christ and you just love me. I felt so loved that you had a big banner for me. Welcome, Mary Ellen.

You know, I felt every bit as welcomed from from all of you at the radio station as I did when I got home. Just felt like my family was so excited to meet me here. And one more thing, my brother Eddie Dean. So I have six brothers, three sisters. And my brother Eddie Dean came to the Lord also.

Oh, wow. And he came to pray for the rest of my family. And it's as simple as there's just one God, you know, and it's Jesus. I love you guys. Oh, and we love you. And we're so grateful. Right. There are so many listeners out there just like you, Mary Ellen, that connect with us and that we can all be part of the body of Christ.

I mean, that's exactly how that works. You know, I get to see Nikita quite often because he comes and records his show. And, you know, my world just wouldn't be the same if you didn't have all these amazing people in us. So thank you so much for coming out and for calling in and being part of our show, Mary Ellen.

God bless. Hey, Robbie, we have Sarah Linda on the phone. Oh, we will get Sarah Linda on the phone.

I'm doing fine. Thank you. And I tell you that wonderful testimony I just heard that this great I mean, that's great. And as you know, I write as I'm listening and try to bring it all in. I used to speak. Oh, never mind.

I won't go in that. I want to bring the song. OK, well, bring it. OK. Open my mouth that it may bring that you feel your wonder and your grace. Teach me that I may sing. Let me see your love upon your face. Give me discernment as I serve as your loving servant. Let me be from your way. Never let me swerve from your truth, your love and liberty. So others also understand your loving kindness is for them, too.

You can only feel the land as they go forth in their love for you. Oh, man, we'd be clapping right here for those of you who don't know, Sarah Linda. Are you ninety seven now? Well, thank you. But I'm going to be ninety five. Ninety five. OK, so I know you.

I apologize. You look a day over ninety two. Ninety five years.

Ninety five years young. Come on. That's wonderful.

Yeah, I am. I it's unbelievable to me that the way you can you can always make a poem and a song out of my shows. It's just a gift that I get a chance to do reading over that scripture was awesome. But hearing her testimony, it just sort of fit right in because, I mean, how she's spreading it through the world, through her own world. And then that goes out. It's wonderful. Praise the Lord for y'all. How about that?
