Joe-Joe went out to find Fan Blade. There was no sign of him anywhere. He searched from sun up to sun down. Joe-Joe searched for two whole days. Fan Blade was not seen anymore. Joe-Joe's father knew that he was sad because he could not find him. He left a picture album book on the kitchen table hoping Joe-Joe would pick it up. When Joe-Joe went into the kitchen to find food, he removed the heavy picture album book and dropped some loose pictures that slid from between the pages. There was a picture of a man that looked just like Fan Blade. He read his real name from the back of the picture. It read, "Uncle Terry." Joe-Joe put the picture back into the picture album book and laid the book in the living room chair. Then he went into the kitchen to eat.
Joe-Joe decided he would go down to the cemetery where most of the older generation of his family laid to rest. He found his uncle's grave. Then he felt a light hand upon his shoulder. When he turned to look behind him, there was no one there. When he turned to look at his uncle's grave, he heard his spirited talking to him. His uncle's spirited sounded like the voice of Fan Blade.
The spirit of Fan Blade said, "Joe-Joe, keep reading your Bible. Learn about the holy ghost and Christ. He's in your hands when you move. He's in you. Never think that you do things on your own. He's in you when you lay down, and he's in you when you get up. He helps you to fight when it is necessary and win battles. It is the Christ that wakes you up, and he's the reason why we have success in life. Always remember him and never forget him no matter what."
(John 15:5) I am the vine, you are the branches: He that stays in me, and I in him,
the same brings forth much fruit: for without me you can do nothing.
