Welcome back to The
Ultimate Prescription.
00:00:01.36\00:00:02.70
If you're just
joining us on today's program,
00:00:02.73\00:00:04.07
we're talking about
biblical prescriptions
00:00:04.10\00:00:06.10
for optimizing
your brain health.
00:00:06.13\00:00:07.80
And Dr. Marcum, we've
talked in the first segment
00:00:07.84\00:00:09.70
about worship as being
a key to reducing stress
00:00:09.74\00:00:14.01
and helping us focus and
have better brain health.
00:00:14.04\00:00:16.24
But it's a rather
complicated field of study.
00:00:16.28\00:00:20.25
I wonder what
can you share with us
00:00:20.28\00:00:21.65
maybe some practical tips
that people can practice today.
00:00:21.68\00:00:24.79
Yeah, well, I'm gonna
give at least three things
00:00:24.82\00:00:27.06
that we can do.
00:00:27.09\00:00:28.42
But the brain is very complex,
00:00:28.46\00:00:30.76
you know, lots of neurons,
lots of interconnections,
00:00:30.79\00:00:35.10
lots of things that are stored
00:00:35.13\00:00:36.70
in that part of the
brain called the hippocampus,
00:00:36.73\00:00:39.40
lots of inputs of life
are all put in the brain,
00:00:39.43\00:00:42.50
whether you
realize it or not, Nick,
00:00:42.54\00:00:44.37
those things are
going in there doing things.
00:00:44.41\00:00:46.91
And lots of
your brains going on,
00:00:46.94\00:00:48.44
and it never comes
to our consciousness
00:00:48.48\00:00:50.48
and yet the brain
still working on things.
00:00:50.51\00:00:52.41
Yeah. It's very interesting.
00:00:52.45\00:00:53.82
And there's
different functional layers
00:00:53.85\00:00:55.28
and very, very
fascinating the study,
00:00:55.32\00:00:57.75
and we're learning
more as time goes on.
00:00:57.79\00:01:00.39
But, you know,
we have PET scans,
00:01:00.42\00:01:02.09
functional MRIs,
00:01:02.12\00:01:03.46
that we can study the
metabolism of the brain,
00:01:03.49\00:01:05.76
the growth of the
brain, parts getting bigger.
00:01:05.79\00:01:08.56
And not only the brain is
a growth part with neurons,
00:01:08.60\00:01:12.30
but it's also electrical.
00:01:12.33\00:01:13.90
You know,
there's electrical things
00:01:13.94\00:01:15.27
that are happening in the brain.
00:01:15.30\00:01:16.64
You've heard of
people that had seizures,
00:01:16.67\00:01:18.04
the electrical
part malformations,
00:01:18.07\00:01:19.61
so there's lots
of neurotransmitters
00:01:19.64\00:01:21.91
that are telling
the brain what to do,
00:01:21.94\00:01:23.65
like dopamine, and
serotonin, and norepinephrine,
00:01:23.68\00:01:27.58
all sorts of different things
and all different precursors.
00:01:27.62\00:01:30.02
So this is a very
complicated field,
00:01:30.05\00:01:31.99
but you want three things
00:01:32.02\00:01:33.36
people can do to
improve their brain health.
00:01:33.39\00:01:34.96
Yeah. Yeah.
00:01:34.99\00:01:37.13
Turn on the proof and
we talked about worship,
00:01:37.16\00:01:39.06
and that's where I
would always start.
00:01:39.09\00:01:41.26
Teaching people how to worship
because God gives us the power.
00:01:41.30\00:01:44.90
He's promised to
give us a new brain,
00:01:44.93\00:01:46.53
a new heart if we come to Him.
00:01:46.57\00:01:48.74
So we want that
brain that He wants for us.
00:01:48.77\00:01:51.67
We don't want the bad brain
00:01:51.71\00:01:53.04
that the world's
creating sometimes
00:01:53.07\00:01:54.68
and we all have bad genes.
00:01:54.71\00:01:56.38
Okay, so there's
some brain things
00:01:56.41\00:01:57.75
that we've inherited,
00:01:57.78\00:01:59.11
that we can't do
anything with it,
00:01:59.15\00:02:00.48
God has to be
the healer for that.
00:02:00.52\00:02:02.62
And I know you've talked before
about worship being different.
00:02:02.65\00:02:05.32
It's not always necessarily
in a sanctuary, in a church,
00:02:05.35\00:02:07.96
but you worship at home
on your own in the mornings,
00:02:07.99\00:02:10.33
you could be on
a walk in nature,
00:02:10.36\00:02:11.96
you can be doing music
by yourself or with others,
00:02:11.99\00:02:14.30
there's lots of
different ways...
00:02:14.33\00:02:15.66
Many ways to
have biblical worship,
00:02:15.70\00:02:17.27
you know, sometimes
when I'm in the hospital,
00:02:17.30\00:02:18.93
I worship by serving others.
00:02:18.97\00:02:20.97
You know, some people worship
by singing, worship by giving.
00:02:21.00\00:02:23.67
There's lots of
examples in the Bible
00:02:23.71\00:02:25.31
of people
worshipping in different ways,
00:02:25.34\00:02:27.58
but we want to find
that special way to worship
00:02:27.61\00:02:30.51
that God connect with us
from a biblical viewpoint.
00:02:30.55\00:02:33.72
So that's one thing
we can do every day.
00:02:33.75\00:02:35.68
And it doesn't have to
be a lot, it can be just,
00:02:35.72\00:02:37.45
you know, some of
the studies show this
00:02:37.49\00:02:38.82
little as 10
minutes a day can get this,
00:02:38.85\00:02:41.12
but we have to...
00:02:41.16\00:02:42.49
Just like you eat
your food every day
00:02:42.52\00:02:44.66
to improve your
physiology every day.
00:02:44.69\00:02:46.76
We really need
to worship every day
00:02:46.80\00:02:48.90
to continue to feed the brain
00:02:48.93\00:02:50.90
to grow the good
part of the brain,
00:02:50.93\00:02:52.63
to help turn down
some of the bad stuff
00:02:52.67\00:02:54.37
that we have going on
00:02:54.40\00:02:55.74
to get God to
create in us a new brain
00:02:55.77\00:02:57.47
to help us overcome
some of our bad genes.
00:02:57.51\00:02:59.54
Right. So that's
one thing, worship.
00:02:59.57\00:03:01.08
Number two, we're
not doing this very much
00:03:01.11\00:03:03.24
is that's
regular physical activity
00:03:03.28\00:03:05.95
or movement.
00:03:05.98\00:03:07.32
What that does to the brain
00:03:07.35\00:03:08.68
is it improves
the blood vessels,
00:03:08.72\00:03:10.99
it helps our
brain get more oxygen,
00:03:11.02\00:03:12.95
more than needed tissues,
00:03:12.99\00:03:14.62
more, the tissues are supplied
00:03:14.66\00:03:15.99
with oxygen and food,
the nutrients we need.
00:03:16.02\00:03:18.66
It helps us a lot of ways
00:03:18.69\00:03:20.16
when we just exercise
00:03:20.20\00:03:21.53
and, you know,
after you've exercised
00:03:21.56\00:03:23.30
you feel a little bit sharper.
00:03:23.33\00:03:24.70
You know, when you get up
in the morning and stretch out,
00:03:24.73\00:03:26.40
you feel a little bit sharper.
00:03:26.43\00:03:27.84
Well, the brain is bathed
00:03:27.87\00:03:29.30
in lots of good
things when we do that.
00:03:29.34\00:03:32.24
So that's number two.
00:03:32.27\00:03:33.81
We've already talked about
00:03:33.84\00:03:35.18
drinking water
and other nutrients,
00:03:35.21\00:03:37.25
but specifically water
and things like blueberries,
00:03:37.28\00:03:40.05
antioxidants
help the brain health,
00:03:40.08\00:03:42.62
help slow down
this aging process.
00:03:42.65\00:03:44.79
And all of our brains
get older on different speeds
00:03:44.82\00:03:48.79
based on our
genes and our habits.
00:03:48.82\00:03:51.13
So those are three
things that people can do,
00:03:51.16\00:03:52.93
worship, do some movement,
and work on their nutrition.
00:03:52.96\00:03:56.40
Those are some basic things
00:03:56.43\00:03:57.77
people can do to help
take care of the brain.
00:03:57.80\00:04:00.00
Yeah.
00:04:00.04\00:04:01.37
And, viewers,
00:04:01.40\00:04:02.74
if you're
interested in finding more,
00:04:02.77\00:04:04.11
Biblical Prescriptions
has a lot of other things
00:04:04.14\00:04:06.64
that you can do in there.
00:04:06.68\00:04:08.01
We encourage you to
give this call to 3ABN
00:04:08.04\00:04:09.38
and ask for your copy
00:04:09.41\00:04:10.75
of Biblical
Prescriptions for Life.
00:04:10.78\00:04:12.11
And, Dr. Marcum,
00:04:12.15\00:04:13.48
we also answer questions
00:04:13.52\00:04:14.85
from viewers that
they've submitted here
00:04:14.88\00:04:16.22
and we've got a tough one
that we want to tackle next.
00:04:16.25\00:04:18.72
Someone writes in and says,
00:04:18.75\00:04:20.09
"A 43-year-old man
00:04:20.12\00:04:21.79
and he has
stage III colon cancer
00:04:21.82\00:04:24.26
and he's discouraged asking
00:04:24.29\00:04:26.16
why is God cursing me?"
00:04:26.19\00:04:27.56
Yeah.
00:04:27.60\00:04:28.93
And that's a great question,
00:04:28.96\00:04:30.67
many people out
there are discouraged
00:04:30.70\00:04:33.34
because their health isn't good.
00:04:33.37\00:04:34.70
Yeah.
00:04:34.74\00:04:36.07
You know, and that
gets them stressed out
00:04:36.10\00:04:37.61
which turns on the
bad parts of the brain
00:04:37.64\00:04:39.84
and it hurts, it
hurts them when you had,
00:04:39.87\00:04:41.94
and some people are discouraged
and they've lost hope.
00:04:41.98\00:04:45.18
And if you look at the
Biblical Prescriptions,
00:04:45.21\00:04:47.82
you know, what, you
know, the modern medicine
00:04:47.85\00:04:49.92
has their plan for colon
cancer stage III is advanced,
00:04:49.95\00:04:54.86
you know, nutrition can
help but this gentleman,
00:04:54.89\00:04:57.76
you know, he feels
like God is cursing him.
00:04:57.79\00:05:00.46
Okay, he feels
like God is cursing him
00:05:00.50\00:05:02.96
and you know what
I'd like to say to him,
00:05:03.00\00:05:04.93
if he's listening or watching
00:05:04.97\00:05:06.53
and I've already written
him an email going over this,
00:05:06.57\00:05:09.60
Nick, and it came to the website
00:05:09.64\00:05:11.24
and I said, you know what?
00:05:11.27\00:05:12.87
Sometimes God uses
our physical illness
00:05:12.91\00:05:16.88
to heal us.
00:05:16.91\00:05:18.25
He allows it to happen.
00:05:18.28\00:05:19.95
You know, He allows us
to be sick for a reason.
00:05:19.98\00:05:22.48
We might not
understand that reason
00:05:22.52\00:05:24.22
'cause we're not God.
00:05:24.25\00:05:25.75
Okay, well, what if this,
00:05:25.79\00:05:27.66
this illness
caused him to come to God
00:05:27.69\00:05:30.09
in a greater way
than he's ever had before.
00:05:30.13\00:05:32.99
And to give him peace
00:05:33.03\00:05:34.36
and to really help him
come into that relationship
00:05:34.40\00:05:36.93
that would heal
him for eternity.
00:05:36.97\00:05:38.67
What if that's happening here?
00:05:38.70\00:05:40.07
We don't know, we're not God.
00:05:40.10\00:05:42.34
What if God is
using this illness
00:05:42.37\00:05:44.07
for him to turn into a ministry?
00:05:44.11\00:05:46.17
Where he says, you know,
00:05:46.21\00:05:47.54
well, through this
illness, I've got closer to God.
00:05:47.58\00:05:50.15
And guess what?
00:05:50.18\00:05:51.51
My family and loved
ones have come to understand
00:05:51.55\00:05:54.02
how important
this relationship was
00:05:54.05\00:05:55.58
for eternity.
00:05:55.62\00:05:56.95
What if God's using
this illness for that?
00:05:56.99\00:05:59.29
So sometimes God can use illness
00:05:59.32\00:06:01.32
to turn into a ministry.
00:06:01.36\00:06:03.12
Now we all have bad genes.
00:06:03.16\00:06:04.56
Maybe he just
had some bad genes.
00:06:04.59\00:06:05.93
Yeah.
00:06:05.96\00:06:07.30
You know, I think
about in the Old Testament,
00:06:07.33\00:06:09.16
all the lepers that they had,
00:06:09.20\00:06:10.67
you know, they were
thought that was a curse,
00:06:10.70\00:06:14.67
they weren't an
outcast to society.
00:06:14.70\00:06:17.31
Well, now we're finding out that
00:06:17.34\00:06:18.67
that was just an
infectious disease
00:06:18.71\00:06:20.04
that they had.
00:06:20.08\00:06:21.41
Yeah. They weren't outcast.
00:06:21.44\00:06:22.78
And I think Christ showed
them that they weren't outcast,
00:06:22.81\00:06:26.11
'cause He came to the
lepers and healed them,
00:06:26.15\00:06:29.22
you know, but it wasn't
only a physical healing,
00:06:29.25\00:06:31.82
it was also a spiritual healing.
00:06:31.85\00:06:34.02
You know, He wanted them to know
00:06:34.06\00:06:35.39
they weren't
outcasts of the society.
00:06:35.42\00:06:36.99
He wanted to offer them more.
00:06:37.03\00:06:38.36
And if you were
living in that time,
00:06:38.39\00:06:40.50
you know, the
lepers were unclean,
00:06:40.53\00:06:42.26
you know, you didn't
even come within a near leper.
00:06:42.30\00:06:44.53
And that here
Christ not only came
00:06:44.57\00:06:46.20
and healed them their physical
00:06:46.23\00:06:47.60
but offered them something
spiritually, eternally.
00:06:47.64\00:06:51.24
So all of those out
there with chronic diseases
00:06:51.27\00:06:54.18
and chronic pain
and things like cancer,
00:06:54.21\00:06:57.01
I mean, the place to
turn for some of the answers
00:06:57.05\00:06:59.71
is to
relationship with God again,
00:06:59.75\00:07:02.08
you know, let him sort
of lead you through this.
00:07:02.12\00:07:03.95
And, you know,
00:07:03.99\00:07:05.32
maybe you might not
understand the reason why.
00:07:05.35\00:07:07.39
But God allows these
things to happen for reasons
00:07:07.42\00:07:10.06
that we might
not ever understand.
00:07:10.09\00:07:11.69
And it's not only now,
00:07:11.73\00:07:13.50
but it's
happened throughout time.
00:07:13.53\00:07:15.23
You know, bad
things happen to people,
00:07:15.26\00:07:17.30
and we don't never
understand the purpose.
00:07:17.33\00:07:19.87
But when I tell them,
00:07:19.90\00:07:21.27
when I have someone
come to the office like this,
00:07:21.30\00:07:23.14
I said, no, you know,
God's not cursing you.
00:07:23.17\00:07:26.68
You know, there's more to
life than our physical eyes.
00:07:26.71\00:07:30.28
There's eternal healing.
00:07:30.31\00:07:31.75
And if this
accomplishes eternal healing,
00:07:31.78\00:07:34.45
or help someone else
become eternally healed,
00:07:34.48\00:07:37.59
then it's a blessing
that we can't even understand.
00:07:37.62\00:07:40.69
And yet we,
00:07:40.72\00:07:42.12
you know, we had the
sanctity of physical life
00:07:42.16\00:07:44.63
we hold on to that so much,
00:07:44.66\00:07:46.43
it almost becomes,
00:07:46.46\00:07:47.80
we're selfish
with our own lives.
00:07:47.83\00:07:49.73
But is our life
really ours, Nick?
00:07:49.76\00:07:51.90
No.
00:07:51.93\00:07:53.27
No, it's a gift
00:07:53.30\00:07:54.80
that was given
for God for a purpose.
00:07:54.84\00:07:56.94
Yeah. For His
will and not our will.
00:07:56.97\00:07:59.14
Yeah.
00:07:59.17\00:08:00.51
You know, and
if His will is this
00:08:00.54\00:08:01.88
and we're walking
with Him, we accept it.
00:08:01.91\00:08:04.68
You know, we try to understand,
00:08:04.71\00:08:06.78
we say, God, I
don't understand why.
00:08:06.82\00:08:08.62
But I trust You that
You know what's best.
00:08:08.65\00:08:10.92
You're in my heart.
00:08:10.95\00:08:12.29
I know where
it's going to end up.
00:08:12.32\00:08:14.06
And if I look
back in the scriptures,
00:08:14.09\00:08:15.72
I see all these
young men that died young,
00:08:15.76\00:08:19.53
you know, they
saw an eternal picture
00:08:19.56\00:08:22.23
that sometimes the
world doesn't allow us to see,
00:08:22.26\00:08:25.40
we see this selfish picture.
00:08:25.43\00:08:27.70
The selfishness that we have
turns on the part of our brain
00:08:27.74\00:08:31.11
that we share with animals,
00:08:31.14\00:08:32.87
then all of a sudden,
we just want to stay alive.
00:08:32.91\00:08:35.51
You know, the prefrontal cortex,
00:08:35.54\00:08:37.01
that's a loving
part of the brain
00:08:37.05\00:08:38.38
that we want to
develop through worship
00:08:38.41\00:08:40.12
and these other things,
00:08:40.15\00:08:41.48
that's the part that helps
us see the big picture in life
00:08:41.52\00:08:44.52
and that's the part that
God wants to create a new.
00:08:44.55\00:08:47.22
So I sort of had this discussion
00:08:47.26\00:08:48.99
on the internet with this person
00:08:49.02\00:08:50.89
and I said, you know,
God's not cursing you,
00:08:50.93\00:08:53.56
maybe there's a reason
00:08:53.60\00:08:54.93
you know, and let's
live one day at a time.
00:08:54.96\00:08:57.33
Let's not worry about the,
00:08:57.37\00:08:58.83
you know, the past.
00:08:58.87\00:09:00.20
Let's just go today
00:09:00.24\00:09:01.57
and let God lead
you today into His will
00:09:01.60\00:09:04.37
one day at a time,
00:09:04.41\00:09:05.74
and maybe we can find
some lifestyle changes
00:09:05.77\00:09:07.98
that can help us.
00:09:08.01\00:09:09.34
Maybe a miracle will happen.
00:09:09.38\00:09:10.71
Sometimes you'll see
miracles, we don't know.
00:09:10.75\00:09:12.55
But we're just gonna
trust Him with their lives.
00:09:12.58\00:09:14.22
Yeah.
00:09:14.25\00:09:15.58
You know, we got time for
just one more quick question.
00:09:15.62\00:09:17.29
Yeah.
00:09:17.32\00:09:18.65
And I can relate
to this one a lot.
00:09:18.69\00:09:20.02
Someone writes in and asked
00:09:20.06\00:09:21.39
who should take a
medication for sleep.
00:09:21.42\00:09:22.76
That's kind of
related to the brain
00:09:22.79\00:09:24.33
for me, 'cause I sit
in bed sometimes at night,
00:09:24.36\00:09:26.06
and I'm just processing things,
and thinking about things,
00:09:26.09\00:09:28.10
and I just, I can't go to
sleep 'cause I'm thinking,
00:09:28.13\00:09:31.17
is medication
appropriate for that?
00:09:31.20\00:09:32.77
Well, why this is
important question is,
00:09:32.80\00:09:35.44
you know, if you look back,
00:09:35.47\00:09:36.81
we want to
understand the reason why.
00:09:36.84\00:09:39.67
Okay. Rest is important.
00:09:39.71\00:09:41.48
You know, if you broke your arm,
00:09:41.51\00:09:42.84
you'd rest your arm, you
wouldn't keep throwing it.
00:09:42.88\00:09:44.71
Right. The brain needs downtime.
00:09:44.75\00:09:48.35
Years ago, when it got dark,
00:09:48.38\00:09:50.39
we turned everything
off and went to sleep.
00:09:50.42\00:09:52.12
The brain had more downtime.
00:09:52.15\00:09:54.06
We have so much
stimulation today,
00:09:54.09\00:09:55.69
the brain is revved up,
00:09:55.72\00:09:57.06
both the stress
part of the brain mainly
00:09:57.09\00:09:59.39
and the parts that we
don't need to be activating.
00:09:59.43\00:10:01.50
And we need to turn that off.
00:10:01.53\00:10:03.47
So when you
can't sleep at night,
00:10:03.50\00:10:05.23
the brain can't rest.
00:10:05.27\00:10:06.60
So lots of things
physiologically happened,
00:10:06.63\00:10:08.60
you accelerate aging,
like we've talked about.
00:10:08.64\00:10:10.67
Right.
00:10:10.71\00:10:12.04
The genes, the bad
genes get older quicker.
00:10:12.07\00:10:13.84
The good genes get older too.
00:10:13.88\00:10:15.28
So what can a person do?
00:10:15.31\00:10:16.64
We'll find out the reason why.
00:10:16.68\00:10:18.38
Some of the reasons
might be too much stimulus,
00:10:18.41\00:10:20.55
turn off the TV at night,
turn off your cell phones,
00:10:20.58\00:10:22.85
that might be it.
00:10:22.88\00:10:24.22
It might be you're
eating big at night,
00:10:24.25\00:10:25.75
you have other
stimulants in your body.
00:10:25.79\00:10:27.72
That might be it.
00:10:27.76\00:10:29.09
Might be that
you're not exercising,
00:10:29.12\00:10:30.63
you're not getting tired.
00:10:30.66\00:10:32.23
But I've had several people
that when they come to me,
00:10:32.26\00:10:34.66
I wouldn't start
with a sleeping pill.
00:10:34.70\00:10:36.60
Okay, there's rare
cases that need it,
00:10:36.63\00:10:38.63
but they're on the rare side.
00:10:38.67\00:10:40.34
But I try to get
them to understand the why
00:10:40.37\00:10:42.84
and sleep physiology,
Nick, is very complex.
00:10:42.87\00:10:45.91
Sometimes it can be
when you're quiet at night,
00:10:45.94\00:10:48.41
your brain just never shuts off.
00:10:48.44\00:10:50.05
When you watch the news,
00:10:50.08\00:10:51.45
it makes more
adrenaline and cortisol,
00:10:51.48\00:10:53.88
those are things
that want the body
00:10:53.92\00:10:55.25
to get ready to
fight and stay alive.
00:10:55.28\00:10:56.79
We want to turn down
00:10:56.82\00:10:58.15
all the stressor
part of the brain.
00:10:58.19\00:10:59.62
So I'd say one
of the good things
00:10:59.65\00:11:01.19
we can do is turn off the stress
00:11:01.22\00:11:03.22
and turn on more
worship at night.
00:11:03.26\00:11:05.29
Come to God in prayer
00:11:05.33\00:11:06.66
and ask Him to sort of
lead you through these things.
00:11:06.70\00:11:08.96
That would probably be a
place where I would start
00:11:09.00\00:11:11.53
rather than jumping on a pill
00:11:11.57\00:11:13.17
that doesn't solve a problem
00:11:13.20\00:11:15.14
and might create
some new problems,
00:11:15.17\00:11:17.21
even though in rare instances,
00:11:17.24\00:11:18.67
it might be
beneficial in the short term.
00:11:18.71\00:11:21.11
Yeah, I'm going to start
employing some of those tips.
00:11:21.14\00:11:24.08
I think it'll be
very helpful. Yeah.
00:11:24.11\00:11:25.75

I hope everyone realizes today
00:11:52.44\00:11:54.71
the importance of
the brain in health.
00:11:54.74\00:11:57.88
The brain is the control
center of the entire body,
00:11:57.91\00:12:00.55
it helps us make decisions.
00:12:00.58\00:12:03.02
We deal with
stress with our brain.
00:12:03.05\00:12:04.95
We also worship with our brain.
00:12:04.99\00:12:07.09
So brain health
is very important.
00:12:07.12\00:12:08.96
And that's the key fact
00:12:08.99\00:12:10.33
I want you to
take away from today
00:12:10.36\00:12:12.36
is help optimizing your brain.
00:12:12.39\00:12:15.46
Now, as we do this,
we all need extra help.
00:12:15.50\00:12:17.73
We all need a Savior.
00:12:17.77\00:12:19.10
So let's bow our heads
00:12:19.13\00:12:20.47
and ask God to help
improve our brains today.
00:12:20.50\00:12:24.21
Father, God, we
all have bad genes,
00:12:24.24\00:12:26.51
we all have bad
brains, we all need a Savior.
00:12:26.54\00:12:30.38
Thank You for being a Savior
00:12:30.41\00:12:32.11
and offering to create in
us a new heart, a new brain,
00:12:32.15\00:12:34.95
when we come to You
and to give us this rest.
00:12:34.98\00:12:36.99
We want to
accept this gift today.
00:12:37.02\00:12:39.79
Thank you. And we
want to praise Your name.
00:12:39.82\00:12:42.16
Amen.
