Where Am I ?

This is the Truth Network. Welcome to the Christian Car Guy Radio Show. I say this calls for action and now. Where am I? Where am I?

Where am I? I'm running to the secret place. Where will you run, my soul? Where will you go when worlds run dry? When the wind starts to blow, how you gonna keep this thing alive?

Where am I today on the Christian Car guys Show? I had fun putting that together. But it's a it's a very, very important question if you're out there driving or if you're in your house or wherever you may be is a question I'm learning. God is teaching me. That's a really good question.

Where Are you right the second? Because you know, you've heard people say you need to be present, right? Um. And where am I becomes critical to that whole Situation, so glad to have you with us today. I have Jerry, my Christian body shop guy, with me today.

I always love to share shows with him. I love it. Yeah, we're going to go some interesting places today, including in the garage with RK at the bottom of the hour. He's going to talk about. How to drive in a way that you can take better care of your transmission.

Or, how not to drive if you want to, how to drive if you want to ruin your transmission management. I'm in the towing business, so let me just tell you: listen up, folks.

So I'm really excited about this, but you know. Jesus taught us to pray in a very specific place. Like You're supposed to be somewhere when you're doing this, right? According to what he said. And so, if I'm truly abiding in him, where.

Is that? I mean, specifically, if I'm trying to figure out where I am, where is it? That I should be if I'm praying. And the way Jesus put it, these were his words. In Matthew 6, starting in verse 5, it says, When you pray, you shall not be like the hypocrites, for they love to pray, standing in the synagogues or on the corners of streets, that they may be seen by men.

Assuredly, I say to you that they have their reward. But when you pray, Go into your room, And shut your door and pray to your Father In the King James Version it's translated in the secret place. And your father who sees in secret will reward you openly.

Well In the secret place, and I love the way the King James did translate that, and I did an exhaustive study of that this week in the Greek so that I could see that, okay, they're using this word, which is a Hebrew word, for the secret place that Moses used. In the 91st Psalm, and this will sound familiar to you about this secret place. We're going to talk about it in a minute. He said. He who dwells in the secret place of the Most High.

Now, there's the Father, right? And here he is, He who dwells in the secret place of the Most High. It's one word in Hebrew. It's a beautiful word, it's connected in its own way to the word Hesed. That that idea of love.

Uh and kindness But he who dwells in the secret place of the Most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty.

So the question is, where am I when it comes to this secret place? When I'm in prayer, apparently, according to Jesus, this is where I am supposed to be. And where is that exactly for you? And have you experienced it? If I were to say, have you been in your secret place?

And What did you experience when you were there? And this is deeper than in your closet, necessarily, in my opinion. Of course, you can tell me where you go, and I would like to know that, but that's not near as fun as if you would call us at 866-348-7884 and tell us what it's like to actually be in that place. It's described in the Song of Solomon beautifully in chapter 2, and it says. Right.

He says, my beloved, who is in the cleft of the rock, in the secret place of the stairs. Let me. See your face. Let me hear your voice, for your face is beautiful. And I mean, your face is beautiful and your voice is lovely.

He's asking for you to be in the secret place. He's asking to see your face. He's asking to hear your voice. And believe me, if you go through the Psalms, just take that one, just do a word search, the secret place, or just secret place, and you'll see how many times David uses it. time and again, and that's where he went.

And so it's telling me, as I began to think about this and process it, gee. Every soul is s specially equipped. With a secret place. And so I have mine. What about yours?

So I thought I would start off this before you you please please please call me with what that feels like to be in the secret place 866-348-7884. For me, It would be a rare day. In fact, I don't think there would be a day or time that I'm not trying to get there, okay? And it feels like this: I close my eyes. Or I close them.

If I'm driving, I close them to see the place that I'm trying to get to, which is. Probably my heart. I'm going to say that our bodies are the temple of the Holy Spirit, and the Holy of Holies would be our heart. And so what is it like to actually abide in that place? And when I get there, I will tell you that for a lot of reasons, it's dark.

However, there's a light in there. And sometimes that light will be the most amazing colors I have ever experienced, and I'm, you know, I'm experiencing these with the light of my heart somehow. I will see this light. and sometimes I will see this light move and then feel the invitation actually To to You know, be in the presence of God. And if I'm praying from that place, And I'm I try to, honestly.

God has shown me the most amazing pieces of Scripture or ideas within Scripture. He has shown me the most amazing opportunities to minister to people. He's shown me some amazing stuff when I'm been in that place.

So If you're hearing what I'm saying and maybe you think I'm nuts and that's okay, call me 866-348-7884. Or I say, Robbie, you go off the off the deep end again.

Okay. But if not, I would love to know for you, what does that experience feel like?

So, Jerry, that's part of the reason why I was dying to share this show with you. I would love to know for you, as a dear godly man, that I know you know what I'm talking about. Yeah, and I did you're saying that I think first thing yet.

Somebody mentioned secret pleasure. should think about that. Where is it? A prayer clause. Yeah.

Room in your house isn't uh a a corner at work or something or Early in the morning before things start stirring around in the in the recliner. Oh, his mic isn't working. Oh. That's what I wondered. You wanna let's switch mics.

All right, let's go to the and sometimes that's that help any better. All right. Yes, okay.

So if you're trying to between it, so yeah, the secret clos, you know, the closet, those kind of things, right. But you know. When you sit there and you think about it, it is your heart. It's that spot. And I'm going to back up a little bit because you asked people to call.

You know Don't even think about it as the secret place. When you start, just come and share your story about where God just really, where you felt His presence, where you felt, you know what, I am just wrapped in His love or His comfort or His grace. or just his direction. you know, where I know that I'm one on one with our Lord and Savior. And for me There's been so many times and and and that secret space is that is Is that time we're in that I don't know, it's kinda hard to explain, Robbie, because I mean, yeah.

There's times when I felt like. I was on an island. And maybe that's where you need to be because then you realize it's just you and your Lord and Savior that's the only thing that's going to give you hope. And I can tell you, I've had that experience driving a vehicle and had to pull over before. because I would believe in I can I can remember Leaving just years back when my wife had some physical problems going on, driving back from Durham from Duke.

And Not knowing what the outcome is going to be, and me just driving and praying, and at times I don't even know how I even knew to stay on the road. But then God starts speaking to me. And I had to pull over because God, that light was, it wasn't just light. All of a sudden, it was the. fireworks the 4th of July.

Where I just knew that I didn't understand, I didn't know the doctors understood. but I knew that everything was going to be all right. And it may not I was hoping it was going to be the outcome I wanted and was praying for, but I knew God told me. It's gonna be all right. And I think we all, as followers of Jesus Christ, have those, we should be able to have that experience.

Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. I bet you there's a lot of people that all of a sudden it comes over you. That's a great way to put it. And and and you're Bawling like a baby, maybe it was a song touched you in a certain way or something, and like you say, you pull over because you're overwhelmed. And you feel that.

It's like all over you.

Well, you call us 866-348. 7884-866-348. 7884. We would love to hear from you. Got so much more, Christian Cargai.

Again, we're going to find out how not to drive to tear up your transmission from the RK in her garage coming up at the bottom of the hour.

So glad you're joining us. But call us, a great time to do that. 866-348-7884. You're listening to the Truth Network and TruthNetwork.com. Where am I?

I'm running to the secret place. Where will you run, my soul? Where will you go when wilds run dry? When the wind starts to blow, how you gonna do? Where am I today on the Christian Car Guy Show?

You know it's a great question to ask. Especially when you're praying, you know, as we're talking about this, that You know, if you you have this place where you can literally meet with God. Um and and And feel that as Jerry was describing, this unbelievable love, this unbelievable acceptance and joy, right? And it flows over you. We would love to know what that feels like for you or when you experienced it.

You know, that testimony that would encourage other people. Like, they're sitting here wondering, you know, is Robbie and Jerry the only people that have ever experienced this?

Well, I know that's not the case.

So you call us 866-348-7884. 866-348-7884. Before we get into much more, I need to. Um tell you that we for whatever reason You know, we've been blessed this year with a lot of donations to Jesus' labor love of financial resources. but we have yet to have a car donated this year.

And so, you know, if the Lord puts it on your heart, you know somebody that's got a car that's just sitting there and they're not using it, or whatever the case may be, that waiting list at the Jesus Labor Love that we have for cars. And even I had a call from Ohio of a lady that needs a car up there.

So as that waiting list grows, you know, we're. It's dependent on us, I guess, here at the Christian Cargai show to let you know. You know, this is. This is one thing, and you know, people think, well, the air conditioner doesn't work, or there's something like this. If you don't have a way to get to the doctor, if you don't have a way to get your kids, um, To school or a way to get to work.

It's huge. Right, Jerry? Oh, absolutely. And you know, the thing is, we. think that a car to be functional has to have all the the the creature gadgets and all of the stuff.

You know what, Robbie, we're old enough to remember, in a car it it was odd when you got in a car that had air conditioning and it was odd to get one that had power windows. And so there's you know what, if the vehicle runs well, even if it you know what even if it doesn't run, you know what, we can get it picked up and we can turn that into either get it running, see if it's worth getting on the road, or just turn it in just just Sell it for salvage and use the money for somebody else. You know, there's.

So many ways to help and and I tell you what, I ride through neighborhoods all the time and there's cars that are sitting that are just covered up and tires are flat and I've watched them just sit there and decay. If you have one of those cars out there, I'll tell you what, the neighbors will be glad to see you get it moved. We'd be glad to get it picked up and uh that may be a blessing to somebody that that that you just can't even imagine because like Robbie said, When you don't have transportation in the society we live in today, It is so critical to have means to get around. You need it for work, and so many of the people who apply. I mean, sadly to say, are single moms that have kids that have physical problems or m mental problems that need to get to doctors and therapy.

And they're having to load up and catch a bus or well, the one I heard today, I mean, this week. This lady was 80 years old, a widow. And, you know, the gentleman that was talking to me about it said, you know, I asked her You know, why she hadn't been to church recently, why she hadn't been to Bible study, because she was always so faithful. She goes, well, you know, I. I lost my car due to something, I forget exactly what, and I have no way to get there.

Like, you know, I have no way to get to church. And You would think, you really would think with our wonderful government and all that we have that there's programs out there, even Wheels of Hope. People tell me all the time, well, you know, there's Wheels of Hope.

Well, I know there is, but you have no idea how many cars we've given to people that didn't qualify for whatever reason. For you know, everybody has their own. Deal, you know, whatever that may be. But fortunately for us, in my opinion, we talk to the people at length. That we understand what's really going on and we pray with them and.

we've been able to meet those needs. Those you know, Robbie, the thing is. There's a lot of charities out there, a lot of people that do this type of thing. But this is the only one, the only one that I know of, and somebody can correct me if they know different, that 100% of every dollar that's sent in. goes to the ministry.

Goes to help.

somebody with either repairing their car or getting a car. Also is the only one that An individual race with them. And also, we do extensive follow-up just to make sure, you know, we don't want to put that vehicle in. You know, in a situation that's not going to be one thing, helping that person, really helping them. Second thing, glorifying God.

And also meeting needs because there's a lot of times, and Robbie will tell you, and I have to think it's probably more than, or not as much as you would think, but there's times that people will think they need a car. And they can't afford, they don't have a driver's license or they don't have insurance. And then it's just really we're an organization would just be wasting the money for them to have the vehicle.

So, you know, there's a lot of research that goes into that. And one thing, every dollar that comes in through Jesus' labor of love. I have all the confidence in the world that it is one hundred per cent going to the ministry and helping somebody. Yeah, and and the Again, when you think about the opportunity that we have, right, to just partner with God. And it comes from, believe me, getting into that secret place and going, God, you know.

Where do you see me in this particular situation and believe me when I tell you You know, there was somebody that... Their wheel fell off this week, you know? Their wheel fell off, like, and they got no way to get to work. And Um you know, for whatever reason, God allowed us to To be part of you know, we're still in the process, believe me, of these situations, but At least we we Have an opportunity to help. And so we're grateful for the Jesus Labor love.

It's all there at ChristianCarGuy.com. You're wondering what I'm talking about. It's the Jesus Labor Love Ministry. It's part of the Christian Car Guy Show. It's at 501c3 in and of itself.

And it's all there at Christian Car Guy. Just one great big word, ChristianCarGuy.com. You'll see the Jesus Labor Love. You can donate your car. You can.

Contribute money, you can contribute prayers, however, you want to connect with us. We want to connect with you. Robbie, I'm going to say one other thing because I don't think we promote this very often, but if you have a service center, a body shop, a record service, a mechanic shop, You know what? Let us know about it, and you become one of our partners. We're not going to flood you down with free stuff.

Give this, give this.

So In every city, we need to know somebody that's a Christian running a business that can help somebody out. There you go. Where am I today? How about you? We would love to know about your secret place.

You're listening to the Truth Network and TruthNetwork.com. Where am I? I'm running to the secret place. Where will you run, my soul? Where will you go when worlds run dry?

Where am I today on the Christian Car Guys Show? You know, it's one of those questions that you could ask yourself at any given moment. And, you know, it's interesting. You have a check engine light inside you. I don't know if you've ever noticed this, but it flashes at you sometimes to say, hey, you may not be where you need to be.

You feel anxious. You feel scared. You feel a lot of things. It may be an indication that you need to take that run we just described to the secret place, Jerry. Absolutely.

I mean That's what that you know Warning lights are simple on a car. They pop up, and if it's red, it means you better stop right now. Orange, you better be taking care of this relatively quickly. But I think sometimes we, you know, they're right in front of us and we do ignore them quite a bit. I mean, general driving public will ignore them.

But in our life we have those same warning lights. And It's too easy to ignore them also because we just think, well, I'm doing fine. I got up this morning, I still have a job. I still got a family, everything's good, everything's wonderful. But then there's those warning signs that we don't see and It's just so important being Oh, it is.

Being where you need to be. In that secret place, in the place of communion with God, because you know, it says pray without ceasing.

So, how can we do that?

Well, we're so blessed as always to have RK with us in the garage, and so to You know, get the music going so I can feel like I'm there with him. Nick, if you're not. And now time for the legendary Garage of RK 88 and Bill Bulbrom. Good morning, everybody. Good morning.

I know that we had told everybody that you are going to help us today. To how to drive to make our transmissions last longer or how not to drive to tear them up.

However, that works, RK. Yeah. We do like a bitch talk. Wow, your phone is kind of breaking up. Are you You're getting there.

Is that better? That's better.

Okay. Uh, would you like me to The start I'll I'll have a Yeah.

Okay. Uh the thing that really bothers me a lot Is when I'm in a van, or not so much a woman woman driver, but the man driver. They back up. with the truck or the car and before the the thing has even stopped they got it and drive going forward. Oh, I cringe.

I cringed when that happened. I said, oh. Please don't do that. And that's a big thing. You got things going different ways, and you can't stop them.

You can. But you're det you're detrimental to the transmission. And But and try not to hit it out of gear if you're going down a hill or going anywhere like that. My friend of mine, not a friend, a customer back in Jersey, I remember coming down North Phil Avenue. And he's talking with his edge and he knocks it.

It was a pony egg station wagon, if I can remember. He knocked it out of drive into reverse It blew up like a bomb hit it. Oh, I can imagine. I can imagine.

So the point, let's see if we can walk through this slowly.

So If I'm going to Put my car in reverse. Number one, I shouldn't be revving the engine when I do that, I assume. The car should be at an idle. when I'm putting it into reverse. Yeah.

And then You know, I wait. Until I actually feel the carb You know, kind of lunge as it would, that it's in reverse before I take my foot off the brake.

So then I mean.

Now Now I'm under s Change directions, and so I'm going to reapply my brake until the car comes to an absolute complete start. Stop, excuse me. When it comes to a complete stop, again, I haven't touched the gas at all so that you absolutely have. the engine on idle when I shift it back into drive. And then take my foot off the brake and ease.

My foot onto the accelerator. Because every single time they stomp down on the accelerator, am I right? That you're actually. You're slipping the clutches and they don't like that. They don't that's a bit of much that's a I can't they Well, I hate your phone is struggling there, R.K.

What? Your phone keeps struggling. You hate that what? Um the the pulse later driver In other words, the going down the road they sit the on the gas, off the gas, on the gas, off the gas.

Well, that puts wear and tear in the engine and transmission and everything else.

So use that cruise. If you're at these light mouths, use the crude in the light mound, it doesn't hurt you. go off as soon as you touch the brake. And it prevents you from getting, well, it'll give you more gas bodies for one thing. And it prevents you from that hurting that transmission.

And it may prevent you from getting a ticket.

Well, it may depend on what you have that cruise set on. Yeah, that too. But I I I've seen a lot of folks that And you can tell they're driving along and their their speed is going all over the place. And next thing you know, they're passing you and then they're slowing down and then they're passing you again. And sometimes they pass you at a great rate of speed and you just realize I don't think they're really focused on What what they're doing, but Again, as we were talking about this show, RK.

When you get Somebody, they want to show you what's going wrong with their transmission. Can you kind of describe that event for us?

Well yes. They jump in and they I think I got this problem.

So we I drive the cars. And A good f good uh example of this is 19 I'm sorry, 2003 Ford Thunderbird. came in Only 90,000 miles on it. And she said Well, Ford wanted 8,000 and 7,000.

So okay. Let's just let me drive the car.

Well It it totally missed one gear. It it it I don't know what happened, but it totally missed one gear and I said, Wait a minute. That's not right. I never have totally missed that gear.

So I went back and wrote it again, wrote it again. I said Well, it's something broke inside. And this Next. I it it's just funny because I think that the use of Peace him. Metal that wasn't up to par, and it broke a hole in the piston, so the band, intermediate band, would not apply.

And it would just foul up the transmission completely. And another thing. If you drive the car The average weight You'll know more about the transmission than flooring a gas to see if it doesn't slip or it does slip or something like that. Because extra pressure. then comes on from a different valves and stuff like that.

So it it may overlook a problem. that you have. Yeah, I remember that you know, again, if you're Let's say you're going to go buy a car and you want to feel how the transmission feels. The last thing you want to do. Is stomp on it and create additional pressure because it's not going to act like it will act.

Again, if you're trying to determine if it's a good transmission. But I'll tell you the one way that I always would you know, as as evaluating cars for years and years. Yeah. When the car is decelerating without my foot on the gas at all, I'm just pulling up to a stoplight. And I'm feeling the car downshift.

Which it does. It's going to go from whatever gear, high gear, third or fourth, whatever it is. And it's going to come down through the gears. Am I right, R.K., that when they when you start feeling it go kthunk as it downshifts?

Now, Houston, we have a problem.

Well, sometimes they they they down shift the We've lost you again right in the critical part.

Sometimes they downshift what now? If if you if you just like downshift and you can't feel it coming down, even though it is. But then all of a sudden you get a bang coming down. Yeah, that's a problem. Right.

That's the problem. There's something wrong. It shouldn't bang, especially Chrysler transmissions. Just saying, yeah, well, a bunch of them. I'll tell you a little story about driving across the country and stuff like that.

I have a 38-foot RV. These are pusher old conventional engine, no electronics.

So it has a 3 16th cable 32 feet long to the engine. And if you sit there all day driving that thing, you have a frozen leg or a leg that doesn't work or a foot that won't work.

So my wife used to laugh at me. What are you doing? I drive the car, I drove that car all the way across the country just with the crews. On and off, and and and of course, then I if I wanted to slow down, I use the Yeah, cruise control is is is Tons and tons of experience. What might you add here?

I'm sorry.

Well, it's just uh it's just the way we drive vehicles. I mean, if one of them lasts, I mean, the what we see, especially when the weather's bad and you get some snow and stuff. We are towing tons of vehicles that transmissions are out of them because they get they like to spin around in the snow and Then they get stuck up and they burn the transmission trying to get out. It's just, you just got to take care of it. It's just, just remember, that's a.

It's a big heavy piece of equipment, but yeah, it's a big heavy piece of equipment, but it has to be treated right. That is true. That is true. Well, thank you, RK. We appreciate your help very much today, and we're hoping you all will take baby your transmissions as we go forward.

We'll be right back. No way. You're listening to the Truth Network and TruthNetwork.com. Where am I? I'm running to the secret place, Where will you go when balls run dry?

Where am I today on the Christian Car Guys show? Or really important thing if you're driving around. Maybe you've had that experience where all of a sudden you look up and you go, Where am I and how did I get there?

Well, it might indicate that you weren't in the secret place. Nonetheless, the more I have thought about this recently, the more I realize finding my Soul's location at any given moment is critical to how fruitful I can be. Because Jesus, in John chapter 15, explained that apart from me, you can do nothing, but he's saying, abide in me. And so that idea of abiding in him is definitely explained in this idea of the secret place. Because when you listen to what Moses would tell us at the beginning of the 91st Psalm, it says, right?

He who dwells in the secret place shall abide. Under the shadow of the Almighty. Hanging out. In that place. Then we're going to be abiding in the same way.

And so. I have a story That God put on my heart to share that's one of the most, in fact, I have to say, of all the interviews and all the people I've ever talked to on the radio over 20 some odd years now. I nothing ever affected me like this story.

So the Billy Graham Association had asked me to interview this man, this pastor from Vietnam, North Vietnam. And he came in with three or four interpreters, and I don't think any of them spoke English. It was the craziest interview from that standpoint of trying to understand what people were saying I've ever been through. But after just a whole lot of them speaking Vietnamese at me, you know, I was like, okay, so Billy Graham wanted you to come on the radio. What do you want to talk about?

And after a lot of words that I had no idea what they were meaning, they said prison. And I went, in my mind, prison, North Vietnam. I'm picturing Rambo 2.

Okay. He's down in the swamp, right? I don't know if you remember big leeches on him. And that's exactly what I was picturing. And so I said, well, You know, you were in prison.

In North Vietnam. I said, was that like Rambo 2 where you were down in a swamp? And he shakes his head, yeah, swamp. Swamp, lake. I said, Well, so you were in a swamp Yeah?

I said how many people were in this swamp. He he said, oh, well over a thousand people. in one swamp. Right? Yeah.

How long were you in this swamp? As I recall, it was five or six years. And I'm like, you survived. Did you ever get out of the swamp? No.

How did you sleep? Standing up? Right? What did you eat? What was in the swamp?

What did you drink? What was in the swamp? With a thousand other people that were eating and drinking what was in the swamp and this The way he described it was no huge swamp. And so I'm trying to fathom in my mind how in the world can God even keep somebody alive? And I said, well, how did you?

He said, oh, well, people, hundreds died. You know, every week. You know, three or four every night, you know, whatever. Right? That we're dying.

And I'm trying to fathom this in my soul. And I said, well, you know, God, anytime God put me in some situation that was really difficult, he always gave me something really spectacular. What did he give you? Here's what he told me, I'll never forget it. He gave me the ninety-first psalm.

Now, you want a treat today? And I mean a treat? Go read the 91st Psalm, the whole Psalm. From a standpoint if you've been in a swamp for a few years, And all night long, people are crying and dying. Like whatever.

Like unbelievable that this man and believe me, he looked like he was in good health and he'd only been out of it about five weeks when I saw him.

Okay? Like, what the heck? I'm like, man, how could this possibly be that this man could experience this? And when you read the 91st Psalm, right, what does it say? Right, that he was abiding in the secret place while he was in the swamp.

That's exactly how he survived, and he understood it at a level most of us never will, I suppose, or until we get to heaven. You know, however, that worked. But eventually, I said, Well, so how in the world did you get out of the swamp? Like, like And boy, after a whole lot of people speaking stuff of me trying to figure out what are you saying, they finally gave me the idea of good behavior. And I said, what does that mean?

Well, essentially, here's the plan. He was leading so many people to Christ in the swamp. Right. that they wanted him out of there. And as he said that, you talked about during the show that love came and something broke on you.

Well, that broke on me that day. The studio was a little different. I was faced in that. And I just broke down. as I realize something.

that oh my goodness and I'll never forget this I'm not surprised that God could sustain a pastor in a swamp like that for five years. That doesn't just shock me. I know God is very capable of that, but what shocked me about it is I thought about the whole situation. Is a lot of those Vietnamese people probably belonged in that swamp. They raped somebody or killed somebody or stolen something.

In other words, they were in prison. Yeah. And they might be dying that next day. God sent them a pastor. God sent, I mean, we don't know what's going on in the corners of the world or whatever in the world it may be going on.

But while all this other stuff may be going on, somewhere there is something horrific like what I just described. In some corner of the world, God is sending his people into that to minister to people in ways that are unbelievable. Wow. Yeah. When you're saying that, Robbie, I mean i you think about it.

You just just just think about it. God, what the power and the grace of our Lord and Saviour. I mean, he's placed somebody in a swamp Because somebody in there, in that swamp, God knew, needed to hear the word of Jesus Christ and the hope of God. Is that not powerful? Should that not challenge each one of us wherever our swamp is?

That we ought to be You want to see where God is leading us and what God has in store and who God wants us to share our story with. Right. And I was like, oh my goodness, here is one of the greatest stories. Wow. And God Allowed me.

To be there. To work through the translation of it because, believe me, it was not easy. These people could not speak English. That was quite obvious. And it was unforgettable.

And I. I've praised God many times and thought about it like If there is something that brings my attention to the 91st Psalm, Mm-hmm. And and and like this man, that that w that was what sustained that man. Um in that swamp. And like I said, you read the whole Psalm, but the first verse...

has two of the words for the idea of abiding in it. And when you get to I believe it's the ninth verse, there's two other words. There's four words in Hebrew that describe the idea of abiding or lodging. And all of them are in the 91st Psalm. It's pretty spectacular when you really, when you really think about it.

We have it. I'm convinced every soul has your you came equipped. With a with a place where you can meet with God. And the way that Solomon put it in Song of Solomon chapter 2 was in the secret place of the stairs. That apparently there is some way that we're connected to heaven through this place.

The secret place of the stairs is what's described as beautiful. And again, the Song of Solomon is. The beloved speaking to his lover, which is Jesus telling to you, right? He says, Let me hear your voice. Let me see your face, you who dwell in the secret place of the stairs.

Let me hear your voice. Let me see your face. Right? And go back to what I said earlier, if you are feeling anxious. You may not be in a swamp, but you feel like it.

And your check engine light is flashing. It might have gone red. You're waiting at the talking to an insurance company or on hold with some person that doesn't speak English really well that you waited for 45 minutes to talk to at the DMV. I don't know what it may be. But that place is available to all of us.

I'm going to pray that. He helped us get there. Thank you, Jerry, for being with us. Thank you, RK. What a great show.

God bless. Amen. Amen. Well Remember, slow down, Jesus walked everywhere he went. He got it all done in 33 years and
