When you have plans for someone, it shows your
concern your love. My wife I attended Bishop
College together. As we were graduating, I
preached two or three little revivals got
enough money to buy a wedding ring. I went up
to the cafeteria a few days before graduation
said to her, Weve been dating are about to
graduate, Im going on to seminary, but Id
like for you to be my wife. And I just knew that
girl was going to jump at that opportunity. I
mean, you know this is quite a catch here. And
she said, Oh, its so beautiful. Thank you, (you
could barely see the diamond) but I need to ask
you a question. I said, Whats the question? I
thought the answer was yes.
38
She said, Yeah, but whats your plan? My
plan? Whats your plan? I plan for us to get
married. No how are you going to take care of
me? Im a preacher. But youre a preacher
without a church. Whats your plan. I said,
Honey, dont you see the potential? She said,
I see the po. What Im concerned about is the
tential. Listen, brothers, when you approach
that lady, the apple of your eye, she wants to
know what your plan is. Because if you dont have
any plans for tomorrow, there aint going to be
any pleasure for today. Dr.E.K.Bailey
