Not All Clear to Billy.
$50 il became a revelation. All
rieht Like the sun, it has its black
spots There are things about the sun
I can't explain. There are things about
religion 1 can't explain, and l never
: expect to until God wipes the smoky
f1lm from my vision.
Il go out and see ? farmer out on
the pIow-beam smoking and l say:
What are You DOING
He said: BY gosh, BIZ: was reading
the almanac and I find there are black
spots up in the sun. and l am wonder
ing why they are.
"I say, Forget 'em. plow your ground
plant your seed, let the sun alone
where God put it: let the black spots
alone that God made.
"'Men have been trying for centuries
to find out what they are, and if they'd
have waited for an explanation we'd
all have been dead. but we have been
planting our seeds and God has been
giving US food with the black spots
there. so forget the black spots and go
ahead
so when j take the incarnation of
Jesus and put it above the Bible it
foods the Bible with light, helps me
understand a good many things
wouldn't have known beans about"
