  from

  the

  Message
• 0:59
  Christ
• 0:59
  holds
• 0:59
  it
• 0:59
  all
• 1:00
  together.
• 1:01
  We
• 1:01
  look
• 1:01
  at
• 1:01
  this

  sun
• 1:02
  and
• 1:02
  see

  the

  God
• 1:03
  who

  cannot

• 1:04
  We
• 1:04
  look
• 1:04
  at
• 1:04
  the
• 1:05
  sun
• 1:05
  and
• 1:06
  see
• 1:06
  God's
• 1:06
  original
• 1:07
  purpose
• 1:07
  and
• 1:07
  everything
• 1:07
  created
• 1:08
  for
• 1:09
  everything,
• 1:09
  absolutely
• 1:10
  everything
• 1:11
  above
• 1:11
  and
• 1:11
  below,
• 1:12
  visible
• 1:12
  and
• 1:12
  invisible,

  rank

  after
• 1:14
  rank
• 1:15
  after
• 1:15
  rank
• 1:15
  of
• 1:16
  angels.
• 1:17
  Everything
• 1:17
  got
• 1:18
  started
• 1:18
  in
• 1:18
  him
• 1:19
  and
• 1:19
  finds
• 1:19
  its
• 1:19
  purpose
• 1:20
  in
• 1:20
  Him.
• 1:21
  He
• 1:21
  was
• 1:21
  there
• 1:21
  before
• 1:21
  any
• 1:22
  of
• 1:22
  it
• 1:22
  came
• 1:22
  into
• 1:22
  existence
• 1:23
  and
• 1:24
  holds
• 1:24
  it
• 1:24
  all
• 1:24
  together
• 1:25
  right
• 1:25
  up
• 1:25
  to
• 1:25
  this
• 1:25
  moment.
• 1:27
  When
• 1:27
  it
• 1:27
  comes
• 1:27
  to
• 1:27
  the
• 1:28
  Church,
• 1:28
  he
• 1:28
  organizes
• 1:29
  and
• 1:29
  holds
• 1:29
  it
• 1:29
  together
• 1:29
  like
• 1:30
  the
• 1:30
  head
• 1:30
  does
• 1:30
  a
• 1:31
  body.
• 1:32
  He
• 1:33
  was
• 1:33
  supreme
• 1:33
  at
• 1:33
  the
• 1:34
  beginning
• 1:34
  and
• 1:34
  leading
• 1:34
  the
• 1:35
  Resurrection
• 1:35
  parade.
• 1:36
  He
• 1:36
  is
• 1:36
  supreme
• 1:36
  in
• 1:36
  the
• 1:37
  end.
• 1:37
  From
• 1:38
  beginning
• 1:38
  to
• 1:38
  end,
• 1:38
  he's
• 1:39
  there,
• 1:39
  towering
• 1:40
  far
• 1:40
  above
• 1:41
  everything,
• 1:41
  everyone.
• 1:42
  So
• 1:43
  spacious
• 1:43
  is
• 1:43
  he,
• 1:44
  so
• 1:44
  expansive
• 1:44
  that
• 1:45
  everything
• 1:45
  of
• 1:45
  God
• 1:46
  finds
• 1:46
  its
• 1:47
  proper
• 1:47
  place
• 1:47
  in
• 1:47
  him
• 1:48
  without
• 1:49
  crowding.
• 1:50
  Not
• 1:50
  only
• 1:51
  that,
• 1:51
  but
• 1:51
  all
• 1:51
  the
• 1:51
  broken
• 1:52
  and
• 1:52
  dislocated
• 1:52
  pieces
• 1:53
  of
• 1:53
  the
• 1:53
  universe,
• 1:54
  people
• 1:54
  and
• 1:55
  things,
• 1:55
  animals
• 1:55
  and
• 1:56
  atoms,
• 1:56
  get
• 1:56
  properly
• 1:57
  fixed
• 1:58
  and
• 1:58
  fit
• 1:58
  together
• 1:58
  in
• 1:59
  vibrant
• 1:59
  harmonies,
• 2:00
  all
• 2:01
  because
• 2:01
  of
• 2:01
  his
• 2:01
  death,
• 2:02
  his
• 2:03
  blood
• 2:03
  that
• 2:03
  poured
• 2:03
  out
• 2:03
  from
• 2:04
  the
• 2:04
  cross.
• 2:05
  You
• 2:05
  yourselves
• 2:06
  are
• 2:06
  a
• 2:06
  case
• 2:06
  study
• 2:06
  of
• 2:07
  what
• 2:07
  he
• 2:07
  does.
• 2:08
  At
• 2:08
  one
• 2:08
  time
• 2:09
  you
• 2:09
  all
• 2:09
  had
• 2:09
  your
• 2:09
  backs
• 2:10
  turned
• 2:10
  to
• 2:10
  God,
• 2:11
  thinking
• 2:11
  rebellious
• 2:12
  thoughts
• 2:12
  of
• 2:12
  him,
• 2:13
  giving
• 2:13
  him
• 2:14
  trouble
• 2:14
  every
• 2:14
  chance
• 2:15
  you
• 2:15
  got.
• 2:16
  But
• 2:16
  now,
• 2:16
  by
• 2:16
  giving
• 2:17
  Himself
• 2:17
  completely
• 2:19
  at
• 2:19
  the
• 2:19
  cross,
• 2:19
  actually
• 2:20
  dying
• 2:20
  for
• 2:21
  you,
• 2:22
  Christ
• 2:22
  brought
• 2:22
  you
• 2:23
  over
• 2:23
  to
• 2:23
  God's
• 2:23
  side
• 2:23
  and
• 2:24
  put
• 2:24
  your
• 2:24
  lives
• 2:24
  together,
• 2:25
  whole
• 2:26
  and
• 2:26
  holy
• 2:26
  in
• 2:26
  his
• 2:27
  presence.
• 2:28
  You
• 2:28
  don't
• 2:28
  walk
• 2:28
  away
• 2:29
  from
• 2:29
  a
• 2:29
  gift
• 2:29
  like
• 2:30
  that.
• 2:31
  You
• 2:31
  stay
• 2:31
  grounded
• 2:32
  and
• 2:32
  steady
• 2:32
  in
• 2:32
  that
• 2:32
  bond
• 2:33
  of
• 2:33
  trust,
• 2:34
  constantly
• 2:35
  tuned
• 2:35
  in
• 2:35
  to
• 2:35
  the
• 2:36
  message,
• 2:37
  careful
• 2:37
  not
• 2:38
  to
• 2:38
  be
• 2:38
  distracted
• 2:38
  or
• 2:38
  diverted.
• 2:39
  There
• 2:40
  is
• 2:40
  no
• 2:40
  other
• 2:40
  message,
• 2:41
  just
• 2:41
  this
• 2:41
  one.
• 2:42
  Every
• 2:43
  creature
• 2:43
  under
• 2:43
  heaven
• 2:43
  gets
• 2:44
  the
• 2:44
  same
• 2:44
  message.
• 2:45
  I
• 2:45
  Paul,
• 2:46
  I'm
• 2:46
  a
• 2:46
  messenger
• 2:47
  of
• 2:47
  this
• 2:48
  message.
• 2:50
  Well,
• 2:51
  that
• 2:51
  ends
• 2:52
  the
• 2:53
  reading
• 2:53
  of
• 2:54
  this
• 2:54
  scripture.
• 2:54
  Thank
• 2:55
  you
• 2:55
  for.
• 2:56
  For
• 2:56
  joining
• 2:56
  me
• 2:56
  today.
• 2:57
  In
• 2:57
  this
• 2:57
  passage
• 2:58
  here,
• 2:59
  Paul
• 2:59
  kind
• 2:59
  of
• 2:59
  opens
• 3:00
  up
• 3:00
  the
• 3:00
  lens
• 3:01
  wide
• 3:02
  and
• 3:02
  says,
• 3:03
  you
• 3:03
  think
• 3:03
  you
• 3:03
  understand
• 3:04
  how
• 3:04
  big
• 3:04
  this
• 3:04
  God
• 3:05
  is?
• 3:06
  Well,
• 3:06
  you
• 3:06
  don't.
• 3:08
  Let
• 3:08
  me
• 3:08
  show
• 3:08
  you.
• 3:10
  So
• 3:10
  that's
• 3:10
  we're
• 3:11
  going
• 3:11
  to
• 3:11
  talk
• 3:11
  about
• 3:11
  here
• 3:12
  today.
• 3:13
  So
• 3:13
  let's
• 3:13
  get
• 3:13
  into
• 3:14
  a
• 3:14
  couple
• 3:14
  of
• 3:15
  points
• 3:16
  to
• 3:16
  ponder.
• 3:18
  First
• 3:18
  point
• 3:19
  to
• 3:19
  ponder.
• 3:19
  God's
• 3:20
  project
• 3:21
  is
• 3:21
  way
• 3:22
  bigger
• 3:22
  than
• 3:23
  we've
• 3:23
  been
• 3:23
  told.
• 3:25
  A
• 3:25
  lot
• 3:25
  of
• 3:25
  us
• 3:25
  grew
• 3:25
  up
• 3:25
  with
• 3:26
  a
• 3:26
  version
• 3:26
  of
• 3:26
  faith
• 3:27
  that
• 3:27
  was
• 3:27
  essentially
• 3:28
  about
• 3:28
  individual
• 3:29
  souls
• 3:29
  getting
• 3:30
  into
• 3:30
  heaven.
• 3:31
  You
• 3:31
  believe
• 3:32
  the
• 3:32
  right
• 3:32
  thing,
• 3:32
  you
• 3:33
  say
• 3:33
  the
• 3:33
  right
• 3:33
  prayer,
• 3:34
  you
• 3:34
  get
• 3:34
  your
• 3:35
  ticket
• 3:35
  punched,
• 3:36
  as
• 3:36
  it
• 3:36
  were.
• 3:37
  But
• 3:37
  that's
• 3:38
  not
• 3:38
  what
• 3:38
  Paul
• 3:38
  is
• 3:38
  describing
• 3:39
  here.
• 3:40
  Paul's
• 3:41
  describing
• 3:41
  a
• 3:41
  God
• 3:41
  whose
• 3:42
  reconciling
• 3:42
  work
• 3:43
  encompasses
• 3:44
  the
• 3:44
  entire
• 3:44
  cosmos.
• 3:45
  Everything,
• 3:46
  people
• 3:47
  and
• 3:47
  things,
• 3:48
  animals
• 3:48
  and
• 3:48
  atoms,
• 3:50
  everything
• 3:50
  broken,
• 3:50
  getting
• 3:51
  to
• 3:51
  be
• 3:51
  fit
• 3:51
  back
• 3:52
  together.
• 3:53
  This
• 3:53
  is
• 3:53
  not
• 3:53
  a
• 3:53
  God
• 3:54
  who
• 3:54
  is
• 3:54
  interested
• 3:54
  in
• 3:54
  saving
• 3:55
  a
• 3:55
  handful
• 3:55
  of
• 3:55
  souls
• 3:56
  while
• 3:56
  the
• 3:56
  rest
• 3:56
  of
• 3:57
  creation
• 3:57
  burns.
• 3:58
  This
• 3:59
  is
• 3:59
  a
• 3:59
  God
• 3:59
  who
• 3:59
  is
• 4:00
  stitching
• 4:00
  the
• 4:00
  whole
• 4:00
  world
• 4:01
  and
• 4:01
  the
• 4:01
  whole
• 4:01
  universe
• 4:02
  back
• 4:02
  in
• 4:03
  the
• 4:03
  wholeness.
• 4:04
  I
• 4:05
  think
• 4:05
  it
• 4:05
  matters
• 4:05
  enormously
• 4:06
  for
• 4:06
  how
• 4:06
  we
• 4:07
  live.
• 4:09
  It
• 4:09
  means
• 4:10
  caring
• 4:10
  for
• 4:10
  creation
• 4:11
  isn't
• 4:11
  an
• 4:11
  option.
• 4:12
  It's
• 4:13
  not
• 4:13
  an
• 4:13
  add
• 4:13
  on
• 4:13
  to
• 4:14
  our
• 4:14
  faith.
• 4:15
  It's
• 4:15
  central
• 4:15
  to
• 4:15
  what
• 4:16
  God
• 4:16
  is
• 4:16
  doing.
• 4:18
  It
• 4:18
  means
• 4:18
  working
• 4:19
  for
• 4:19
  justice.
• 4:20
  There
• 4:21
  isn't
• 4:21
  a
• 4:21
  distraction
• 4:23
  from
• 4:23
  the
• 4:23
  gospel.
• 4:24
  It's
• 4:24
  the
• 4:25
  gospel
• 4:25
  in
• 4:25
  action.
• 4:27
  So
• 4:27
  when
• 4:27
  my
• 4:27
  wife
• 4:27
  and
• 4:27
  I
• 4:28
  are
• 4:28
  out
• 4:28
  in
• 4:28
  one
• 4:28
  of
• 4:28
  our
• 4:28
  wooded
• 4:29
  trails,
• 4:29
  one
• 4:29
  of
• 4:29
  the
• 4:29
  parks
• 4:30
  we
• 4:30
  like
• 4:30
  to
• 4:30
  go,
• 4:31
  and
• 4:31
  we're
• 4:31
  walking
• 4:32
  through
• 4:32
  the
• 4:32
  canopy
• 4:33
  of
• 4:33
  trees
• 4:33
  we
• 4:33
  like
• 4:33
  to
• 4:33
  call
• 4:34
  it,
• 4:34
  with
• 4:35
  light
• 4:35
  filtering
• 4:36
  through.
• 4:37
  I
• 4:37
  don't
• 4:37
  experience
• 4:38
  that
• 4:38
  as
• 4:38
  something
• 4:38
  separate
• 4:39
  from
• 4:39
  God.
• 4:40
  I
• 4:40
  experience
• 4:41
  a
• 4:41
  part
• 4:41
  of
• 4:41
  the
• 4:41
  everything
• 4:42
  that
• 4:42
  finds
• 4:42
  its
• 4:42
  purpose
• 4:43
  in
• 4:43
  God.
• 4:44
  And
• 4:45
  Paul
• 4:45
  is
• 4:45
  telling
• 4:45
  us
• 4:46
  here,
• 4:46
  the
• 4:46
  scope
• 4:47
  of
• 4:47
  God's
• 4:48
  love
• 4:49
  is
• 4:49
  as
• 4:49
  big
• 4:49
  as
• 4:49
  the
• 4:49
  universe
• 4:50
  itself.
• 4:51
  So
• 4:51
  if
• 4:51
  we
• 4:51
  shrink
• 4:52
  it
• 4:52
  down
• 4:52
  to
• 4:52
  just
• 4:53
  me
• 4:53
  and
• 4:53
  my
• 4:53
  personal
• 4:53
  salvation.
• 4:55
  You've
• 4:55
  missed
• 4:55
  the
• 4:56
  point.
• 4:56
  You've
• 4:56
  missed
• 4:56
  the
• 4:56
  whole
• 4:57
  song.
• 4:58
  A
• 4:58
  second
• 4:59
  point
• 4:59
  to
• 4:59
  ponder.
• 5:00
  God's
• 5:01
  work
• 5:01
  is
• 5:01
  about
• 5:01
  putting
• 5:02
  things
• 5:02
  together,
• 5:03
  not
• 5:03
  sorting
• 5:04
  people
• 5:04
  out.
• 5:05
  So
• 5:05
  look
• 5:05
  at
• 5:06
  the
• 5:06
  verbs
• 5:06
  that
• 5:06
  Paul
• 5:07
  uses
• 5:07
  here.
• 5:07
  He
• 5:08
  says
• 5:08
  Christ
• 5:09
  holds
• 5:09
  it
• 5:09
  together.
• 5:11
  He
• 5:11
  says,
• 5:11
  the
• 5:12
  broken
• 5:12
  pieces
• 5:12
  get
• 5:13
  properly
• 5:14
  fixed
• 5:15
  and
• 5:15
  fit
• 5:15
  together.
• 5:17
  He
• 5:17
  says,
• 5:17
  God,
• 5:17
  put
• 5:18
  your
• 5:18
  lives
• 5:18
  together,
• 5:19
  whole
• 5:20
  and
• 5:20
  holy.
• 5:21
  This
• 5:21
  is
• 5:22
  language
• 5:22
  of
• 5:22
  restoration
• 5:23
  and
• 5:23
  rebuilding,
• 5:24
  of
• 5:24
  mending,
• 5:25
  of
• 5:25
  integration,
• 5:26
  not
• 5:27
  the
• 5:27
  language
• 5:27
  of
• 5:28
  division,
• 5:28
  exclusion
• 5:29
  or
• 5:29
  separation.
• 5:31
  You
• 5:31
  know,
• 5:31
  I
• 5:31
  do
• 5:31
  a
• 5:32
  cancer
• 5:32
  related
• 5:32
  podcast
• 5:34
  and
• 5:35
  I
• 5:35
  hear
• 5:35
  it
• 5:35
  from
• 5:36
  pretty
• 5:36
  often
• 5:37
  from
• 5:37
  people
• 5:37
  going
• 5:37
  through
• 5:38
  treatment.
• 5:38
  This
• 5:39
  feeling
• 5:39
  of
• 5:39
  being
• 5:39
  kind
• 5:39
  of
• 5:39
  disassociated
• 5:40
  or
• 5:40
  dislocated
• 5:42
  from
• 5:42
  their
• 5:42
  own
• 5:42
  bodies
• 5:43
  and
• 5:44
  from
• 5:44
  their
• 5:44
  normal
• 5:44
  routines,
• 5:45
  from
• 5:45
  the
• 5:45
  future
• 5:46
  they
• 5:46
  thought
• 5:46
  they
• 5:46
  had
• 5:48
  and
• 5:48
  what
• 5:48
  they
• 5:48
  need
• 5:49
  most.
• 5:49
  Isn't
• 5:49
  someone
• 5:49
  telling
• 5:50
  me
• 5:50
  who's
• 5:50
  in
• 5:50
  and
• 5:50
  who's
• 5:51
  out
• 5:51
  of
• 5:51
  God's
• 5:51
  favorite.
• 5:52
  They
• 5:52
  need
• 5:53
  to
• 5:53
  say
• 5:53
  there's
• 5:53
  a
• 5:53
  force
• 5:54
  in
• 5:54
  this
• 5:54
  universe
• 5:54
  that
• 5:55
  is
• 5:55
  putting
• 5:56
  broken
• 5:56
  things
• 5:57
  back
• 5:57
  together.
• 5:58
  And
• 5:58
  you're
• 5:58
  a
• 5:58
  part
• 5:59
  of
• 5:59
  that
• 5:59
  story.
• 6:00
  Thinks
• 6:00
  what
• 6:01
  Paul
• 6:01
  is
• 6:01
  saying
• 6:01
  here,
• 6:02
  it's
• 6:02
  about
• 6:02
  putting
• 6:03
  things
• 6:03
  together.
• 6:04
  My
• 6:05
  wife
• 6:05
  and
• 6:05
  I
• 6:05
  have
• 6:05
  been
• 6:05
  married
• 6:05
  for
• 6:06
  over
• 6:06
  34
• 6:06
  years.
• 6:06
  We
• 6:07
  have
• 6:07
  three
• 6:07
  grown
• 6:07
  children,
• 6:08
  two
• 6:08
  grandchildren.
• 6:09
  And
• 6:10
  laughter
• 6:11
  is
• 6:11
  a
• 6:11
  big
• 6:11
  part
• 6:11
  of
• 6:12
  that.
• 6:13
  And
• 6:13
  I
• 6:13
  can
• 6:13
  tell
• 6:13
  you
• 6:13
  none
• 6:14
  of
• 6:14
  that
• 6:14
  wholeness
• 6:15
  comes
• 6:15
  from
• 6:15
  getting
• 6:16
  everything
• 6:16
  right.
• 6:17
  Far
• 6:18
  from
• 6:19
  came
• 6:19
  from
• 6:19
  grace.
• 6:20
  Holding
• 6:20
  things
• 6:20
  together
• 6:21
  through
• 6:22
  the
• 6:22
  seasons
• 6:23
  when
• 6:23
  we
• 6:23
  on
• 6:24
  our
• 6:24
  own
• 6:24
  couldn't
• 6:25
  hold
• 6:25
  it
• 6:25
  together.
• 6:27
  That's
• 6:27
  the
• 6:28
  crisis
• 6:28
  Paul
• 6:28
  is
• 6:28
  talking
• 6:29
  about
• 6:29
  here.
• 6:30
  Not
• 6:30
  a
• 6:30
  gatekeeper,
• 6:31
  but
• 6:31
  a
• 6:31
  holder
• 6:32
  together.
• 6:34
  So
• 6:34
  here's
• 6:34
  your
• 6:34
  action
• 6:35
  step.
• 6:36
  Paul
• 6:36
  says
• 6:36
  all
• 6:37
  the
• 6:37
  broken
• 6:37
  and
• 6:37
  disloding
• 6:38
  pieces
• 6:38
  get
• 6:38
  fit
• 6:38
  together
• 6:39
  in
• 6:39
  vibrant
• 6:39
  harmonies.
• 6:40
  I
• 6:40
  want
• 6:40
  you
• 6:41
  to
• 6:41
  look
• 6:41
  at
• 6:41
  some
• 6:41
  broken
• 6:42
  or
• 6:42
  dislocated
• 6:42
  piece
• 6:43
  of
• 6:43
  your
• 6:43
  own
• 6:43
  life
• 6:44
  and
• 6:44
  the
• 6:44
  way
• 6:44
  you
• 6:45
  use
• 6:45
  your
• 6:45
  time
• 6:45
  and
• 6:45
  the
• 6:46
  way
• 6:46
  you
• 6:46
  have
• 6:46
  your
• 6:46
  relationships
• 6:48
  in
• 6:48
  your
• 6:48
  community,
• 6:49
  in
• 6:50
  your
• 6:50
  money
• 6:50
  and
• 6:51
  your
• 6:51
  time
• 6:52
  and
• 6:53
  participate
• 6:53
  in
• 6:53
  some
• 6:53
  way
• 6:54
  and
• 6:54
  putting
• 6:54
  things
• 6:54
  back
• 6:54
  together.
• 6:55
  Maybe
• 6:55
  it's
• 6:56
  a
• 6:56
  phone
• 6:57
  call
• 6:57
  to
• 6:57
  someone
• 6:58
  who's
• 6:59
  a
• 6:59
  bit
• 6:59
  isolated.
• 7:00
  Maybe
• 7:00
  it's
• 7:01
  showing
• 7:01
  up
• 7:01
  for
• 7:02
  a
• 7:02
  cause
• 7:04
  that's
• 7:04
  about
• 7:04
  healing
• 7:05
  rather
• 7:05
  than
• 7:05
  dividing.
• 7:07
  Maybe
• 7:07
  it's
• 7:08
  simply
• 7:08
  sitting
• 7:08
  down
• 7:08
  with
• 7:08
  someone
• 7:09
  who
• 7:09
  needs
• 7:09
  a
• 7:09
  friend
• 7:09
  to
• 7:09
  talk
• 7:10
  to
• 7:10
  you
• 7:10
  for
• 7:10
  a
• 7:10
  little
• 7:10
  bit.
• 7:11
  Maybe
• 7:11
  someone
• 7:12
  whose
• 7:12
  life
• 7:12
  is
• 7:12
  falling
• 7:12
  apart
• 7:13
  a
• 7:13
  little
• 7:13
  bit
• 7:13
  and
• 7:13
  saying,
• 7:14
  I'm
• 7:14
  here.
• 7:15
  I'm
• 7:15
  here
• 7:15
  to
• 7:16
  help
• 7:16
  you
• 7:16
  put
• 7:16
  things
• 7:16
  back
• 7:17
  together.
• 7:18
  You
• 7:18
  don't
• 7:18
  have
• 7:18
  to
• 7:19
  fix
• 7:19
  everything
• 7:19
  in
• 7:19
  the
• 7:19
  whole
• 7:20
  cosmos,
• 7:20
  but
• 7:20
  maybe,
• 7:21
  just
• 7:21
  maybe,
• 7:21
  pick
• 7:22
  up
• 7:22
  one
• 7:22
  piece
• 7:23
  and
• 7:23
  help
• 7:24
  somebody,
• 7:25
  maybe
• 7:25
  yourself,
• 7:26
  put
• 7:26
  it
• 7:26
  back
• 7:26
  together.
• 7:28
  We're
• 7:28
  going
• 7:28
  to
• 7:28
  pray
• 7:29
  here
• 7:29
  in
• 7:29
  just
• 7:29
  a
• 7:29
  minute.
• 7:29
  Before
• 7:29
  we
• 7:29
  do,
• 7:30
  just
• 7:30
  a
• 7:30
  quick
• 7:30
  reminder.
• 7:30
  We
• 7:31
  have
• 7:31
  a
• 7:31
  great
• 7:31
  resource
• 7:31
  for
• 7:32
  you

  can

  pick
• 7:41
  it
• 7:41
  up
• 7:41
  there.
• 7:42
  Let's
• 7:42
  pray.
• 7:44
  God,
• 7:44
  in
• 7:44
  many
• 7:45
  ways
• 7:45
  this
• 7:45
  passage
• 7:45
  takes
• 7:46
  our
• 7:46
  breath
• 7:46
  away.
• 7:46
  And
• 7:47
  if
• 7:47
  we
• 7:47
  let
• 7:48
  it.
• 7:48
  So
• 7:49
  you're
• 7:49
  holding
• 7:49
  everything
• 7:49
  together.
• 7:50
  Everything
• 7:51
  from
• 7:51
  the
• 7:52
  atoms
• 7:52
  to
• 7:53
  the

• 7:55
  strangers
• 7:56
  we've
• 7:57
  just
• 7:57
  met.
• 7:59
  Forgive
• 7:59
  us
• 7:59
  from
• 8:00
  times
• 8:00
  when
• 8:00
  we
• 8:00
  tried
• 8:00
  to
• 8:00
  shrink
• 8:01
  you
• 8:01
  down
• 8:01
  to
• 8:01
  fit
• 8:02
  our

  Today,

  for

  anyone
• 8:07
  listening
• 8:08
  who

  one
• 8:09
  of

  those
• 8:09
  broken,
• 8:11
  dislocated
• 8:12
  pieces,

  it

  feels

  like

  they're

  come

  apart
• 8:15
  and
• 8:15
  can't

  they

  fit.
