00:01:01.619 --> 00:01:02.859
I'm<00:01:01.820><c> sure</c><00:01:01.960><c> you</c><00:01:02.079><c> remember</c><00:01:02.259><c> what</c><00:01:02.460><c> it</c><00:01:02.579><c> was.</c>

00:01:03.060 --> 00:01:05.659
But<00:01:03.219><c> this</c><00:01:03.460><c> time,</c><00:01:03.799><c> I</c><00:01:03.840><c> thought</c><00:01:03.979><c> we</c><00:01:04.099><c> might</c><00:01:04.260><c> ring</c><00:01:04.439><c> the</c><00:01:04.680><c> changes.</c>

00:01:06.579 --> 00:01:09.260

00:01:09.439 --> 00:01:11.219
we<00:01:09.599><c> find</c><00:01:09.859><c> these</c><00:01:10.159><c> words.</c>

00:01:12.019 --> 00:01:15.219
And<00:01:12.099><c> behold,</c><00:01:13.120><c> Boaz</c><00:01:13.420><c> came</c><00:01:13.780><c> from</c><00:01:14.040><c> Bethlehem</c>

00:01:15.219 --> 00:01:19.159
and<00:01:15.620><c> said</c><00:01:15.780><c> unto</c><00:01:15.939><c> the</c><00:01:16.120><c> reapers,</c><00:01:17.439><c> the</c><00:01:17.579><c> Lord</c><00:01:17.840><c> be</c><00:01:18.040><c> with</c><00:01:18.219><c> you.</c>

00:01:19.620 --> 00:01:23.299
And<00:01:19.900><c> they</c><00:01:20.040><c> answered</c><00:01:20.340><c> him,</c><00:01:21.420><c> the</c><00:01:21.560><c> Lord</c><00:01:21.959><c> bless</c><00:01:22.280><c> thee.</c>

00:01:23.879 --> 00:01:26.200
Let<00:01:24.079><c> me</c><00:01:24.299><c> introduce</c><00:01:24.579><c> you,</c><00:01:25.060><c> brother</c><00:01:25.140><c> Boaz.</c>

00:01:26.859 --> 00:01:28.500
The<00:01:27.120><c> Lord</c><00:01:27.319><c> be</c><00:01:27.519><c> with</c><00:01:27.659><c> you.</c>

00:01:28.500 --> 00:01:30.760
The<00:01:29.120><c> Lord</c><00:01:29.400><c> bless</c><00:01:29.879><c> thee.</c>

00:01:31.099 --> 00:01:33.280
But<00:01:31.239><c> you</c><00:01:31.340><c> should</c><00:01:31.459><c> have</c><00:01:31.579><c> been</c><00:01:31.719><c> blessed</c><00:01:31.980><c> thee.</c>

00:01:35.299 --> 00:01:39.379
Now,<00:01:37.540><c> in</c><00:01:37.719><c> the</c><00:01:37.980><c> experience</c><00:01:38.200><c> of</c><00:01:38.400><c> the</c><00:01:38.459><c> Lord</c><00:01:38.659><c> Jesus</c><00:01:39.040><c> Christ,</c>

00:01:43.480 --> 00:01:47.959
We<00:01:43.739><c> have</c><00:01:43.920><c> a</c><00:01:44.159><c> special</c><00:01:44.680><c> light</c><00:01:45.140><c> thrown</c><00:01:45.500><c> upon</c><00:01:45.799><c> his</c><00:01:46.780><c> devotional</c><00:01:47.480><c> attitude</c>

And<00:01:55.519><c> it</c><00:01:55.719><c> came</c><00:01:55.920><c> to</c><00:01:56.140><c> pass</c><00:01:56.299><c> in</c><00:01:56.500><c> those</c><00:01:56.760><c> days</c><00:01:57.120><c> that</c><00:01:57.260><c> he</c><00:01:57.379><c> went</c><00:01:57.640><c> out</c>

00:02:40.879 --> 00:02:47.819
