The speaker expresses deep appreciation for his wife's Christlike character and the privilege of having her as the mother of his children. The sermon concludes with a prayer for spiritual growth, protection, and blessings for all present.

I wish everybody would sing. Let's do it, you know. I'm living for the day. Anyway, twelve o'clock, preached. Paul preached till he fell down dead, you know. Nobody's done that under my ministry yet, but I love to preach a long time. And I am very grateful to God that I could have preached here tonight. But if it is God's will, and I don't doubt it, but if God spares me and God spares you, and if He doesn't come back to take us home, I hope so much God will let me come back to you. And our dear brother has expressed that perhaps there's the hope of bringing my family over here. And I don't want to twist his arm or take advantage of that, that offer, but if it is so, then my family will be here with me, and you will see why I'm happy. You will see how rich I am. I don't know anyone living that is more Christlike than my wife. I don't know anyone. I hope you can say that about your wife, sir. I'm so grateful I can say it about her. From my heart, I thank God she's the mother of my children. I thank God they're so privileged to have that mother. Now I'm going to ask John to please come forward. Would you mind if I do this? I don't know whether to ask Phil or anyone, but I'm going to ask John because of just the involvement I've had with him and Lynette, and I'm going to ask him to commit us all to Christ. Can I ask one staggering thing in any of you? You've got to forgive me for asking, but I'm not saying it. If you're not born of God, you cannot point to the moment you became God's child. It couldn't happen when you were born a child of your mother and father. That's why you have to be born again. You have to be born again. You have to have a second birth. You can't do it as a child. It's by grace. If you're not saying, Oh, please, please come to Jesus. Don't go to sleep tonight before you've taken someone who brought you. Don't leave me until you help me to find Jesus. I'd rather know further than to say thank you properly to the very person whose love gives me life. My vengeance is here from my heart, and I hope I'm saying it correctly. God honor you for that. My payment is that God lays this in your heart. I'm so grateful. I honestly ask God to honor you for that. Can our brother commit us to Christ? I don't think I'm going to stand in the door because we haven't all been out tonight. Is there someone who has the means to just give me, say something? Let's bow. Heavenly Father, thank you for this evening. And thanks for speaking to my heart, Lord. Help me to go away as a different husband and father. Just thanks for this evening. And thank you, Lord, for working it out that each one could be here. Just help us to go home, purpose in our hearts to be more godly and more like the Lord Jesus Christ. Please keep your hedge of protection over each one as they travel home. Bless each one. Help us all to be faithful to you in one day. Here you say, well done, good and faithful. Thank you, dear Lord, for this evening. Bless Keith and his family back home. Just give them an extra measure of grace tonight, Lord, as they go to bed many evenings without husband or father there. Just bless them right now, Lord. Just commit the rest of this evening into your hands. In Jesus' name, amen. Amen. Thank you all for coming. God bless you. Don't forget the announcements we made earlier. And if you have any questions, feel free to ask somebody on the committee. God bless you. You've got an announcement. Mark reminded me the staff here, they like to get this place cleaned up. We do not want to rush you. So we're going to open these doors up and maybe if we can kind of move over into that section, that way they can do what they need to do. So we want to encourage you to fellowship, but let's appreciate Amish Door and their flexibility to stay a little later than normal, and we can help them in that way.
