That is the Jesus calling. So for dummies like me that can't understand the Bible, we have to resort to something [laughter] like that. But what that is, and you could take it, leave it, do whatever you want with it. Take it. But that is a short little couple of sentences every day. It's not a big lift. It's.

It's only about what Jesus said. You read one little less than a paragraph in the morning when you wake up.
