  570. 34:38[Music]
  571. 34:41all of us have a false face everybody in
  572. 34:45this house
  573. 34:50some heights it better than
  574. 34:52some are more transparent than others
  575. 35:01but no none of us
  576. 35:05and to see how
  577. 35:08afraid we are
  578. 35:16fears
  579. 35:20young people depth a certain age
  580. 35:25young ladies
  581. 35:35and they ever gonna find a compact
  582. 35:38and everyone
  583. 35:47what happens a lot um they move in fear
  584. 35:51fear makes you irrational
  585. 35:55and makes you do your rational things
  586. 36:07Oh
  587. 36:08I watched
  588. 36:10on that twin tower
  589. 36:13uh-huh
  590. 36:14man brother oh but I think
  591. 36:17it's beyond my mind can see somebody
  592. 36:20jumping out of one
  593. 36:28maybe maybe somebody get to me
  594. 36:32I'm not jump out this time a nobody
  595. 36:35it won't meet another yep
  596. 36:38feel
  597. 36:42can make you do your rational things
  598. 36:47and sometimes when young people are at
  599. 36:49that age and they
  600. 36:56it's like well I'm home
  601. 36:58I don't want to be alone
  602. 37:03by myself there's people that are
  603. 37:06married that are alone
  604. 37:09and by themselves
  605. 37:11only young ladies they got two or three
  606. 37:14children or having to take care
  607. 37:16but there's nobody to take care of
  608. 37:20and they're out chasing another skirt
  609. 37:26or you're sitting at home wondering how
  610. 37:28you're gonna pay a lightning
  611. 37:31and there's nobody there to console or
  612. 37:35take care of you there's worse things
  613. 37:37than being alone right now
  614. 37:43so don't be irrational
  615. 37:47because the person you're gonna wind up
  616. 37:49fighting
  617. 37:52is going to be you
  618. 38:02tell you what

  643. 39:46somebody in this house this morning
  644. 39:49Lord took this preacher from his sickbed
  645. 39:52and when he did him have a thought
  646. 39:57and drop this thought into his heart
  647. 39:59because god's got a message for somebody
  648. 40:02here this more
  649. 40:07we're gonna read that verse again what
  650. 40:09does it say bye

  664. 41:18I want to tell you
  665. 41:23some folks want to be used of God
  666. 41:26and their idea of being used of God is
  667. 41:29being on a platform
  668. 41:33preaching to hundreds people
  669. 41:37being on a platform and singing to
  670. 41:40hundreds of people
