  This little light of mine, I'm gonna let it smile. Let it smile.

  Let it smile. Let it smile. Yeah.
• 1:00
  Daddy, I'm so excited, but I have one question. What's your question?
• 1:05
  I'm going to be a pastor or a minister.
• 1:07
  Good question. I don't know, but it is all in God's hands. Good morning.
• 1:12
  You're listening to Have Faith Love Again, and it starts right now.
• 1:17
  Good morning, everyone, and Merry Christmas. It is the 26th of December. It is a Thursday.
• 1:24
  We are back from being preempted. I am back, and I'm hoping that each and every
• 1:30
  one of you had a blessed Christmas Eve, a Christmas day.
• 1:33
  As the countdown begins to 2025, we are excited to be on the air,
• 1:40
  and also at our house, the countdown is on as my dog Cody's birthday is tomorrow.
• 1:46
  Cody will be 10 years old. We're going to begin today with a formal prayer.
• 1:51
  Let's begin with the words that God taught us.
• 1:55
  Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name.
• 1:59
  Thy kingdom come, thy will be done, on earth as it is in heaven.
• 2:04
  Give us this day our daily bread, and forgive us our debts as we forgive our debtors.
• 2:10
  Lead us not into temptation. Deliver us from evil, for yours is the kingdom,
• 2:15
  the power, and the glory forever and ever. Amen.
• 2:20
  This morning, we lift up in prayer each and every single one of you.
• 2:25
  We know that the holiday season can be tough for some. We know that the days
• 2:30
  after the holidays also make people a little bit sad because they enjoy the
• 2:36
  countdown of the holidays.
• 2:38
  Many of us take the Christmas season very, very, very strongly to heart.
• 2:44
  And a lot of you that are celebrating Kwanzaa and Happy Hanukkah,
• 2:48
  may all of your days be merry as well.
• 2:52
  We continue on with understanding the true meaning of the word Christmas,
• 2:56
  the true meaning of the word of understanding, the true meaning of the word forgiveness.
• 3:02
  See, to me, it's all tied into one.
• 3:05
  We know that the birth of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior,
• 3:08
  is one of the most sacred things we can think about.
• 3:11
  It is a beautiful time to remember that he was born so that he could stay here
• 3:16
  for somebody, maybe 30, 40 years.
• 3:19
  But no, he was taken from us a little sooner because he was designed to come here.
• 3:24
  He knew to take human form so that he can die for our sins.
• 3:29
  It was already in his works. It was already in his plan.
• 3:32
  God, the Father Almighty, thank you for all the sacrifices you have done.
• 3:37
  We thank you for your disciples, your choices. We thank you for those that written,
• 3:43
  down and wrote down everything that happened and transpired so that we can follow
• 3:48
  you and understand your words.
• 3:51
  I lift up in prayer myself as I am literally 12 days away, more like 12 and
• 3:59
  a half days away from starting ministry school.
• 4:02
  And I am excited, I'm eager, and I cannot wait to learn more and more about the Bible.
• 4:12
  So many of you right now have reached out to me for prayer because some of you
• 4:16
  have family in the hospital.
• 4:18
  Some of you are unhappy with your work and the workplace that you're at.
• 4:24
  And some of you are dealing with displacement.
• 4:28
  Also for transfers and those that are dealing with marriages and losses and
• 4:34
  new different ways of the way things are happening in your new way of life.
• 4:40
  Maybe your children are not with you on Christmas morning and you're sharing them with your ex.
• 4:46
  It's time now to come together. It's time to put away every single thing in
• 4:52
  the past. You have to learn to try to forgive.
• 4:55
  It's time to work as a teen, because at the end of the day, the children do come first.
• 5:00
  And even if you're that one person that is doing exactly what you believe is
• 5:04
  right, and the other doesn't want to execute his or her version of the way things
• 5:10
  should be because of the kids,
• 5:12
  pray for them, forgive them, and be patient.
• 5:16
  God knows what he's doing. God has a plan.
• 5:19
  And finally, to every single Have Faith Let It Begin viewer who has stuck by me for seven long years.
• 5:27
  I wanna say, I am so grateful that you are a part of my life and I wanna tell
• 5:32
  you that God is with you, God believes in you, God trusts you,
• 5:36
  and God is never gonna leave your side.
• 5:39
  On behalf of Dr. E, on behalf of Clinton Knapp and all those that have been
• 5:44
  on our show, like good old Nick and Carol,
• 5:49
  and all those that take the time to have been on this show to share in our good
• 5:54
  fortunes, I say thank you.
• 5:56
  So may God be with you. May he shine his light upon you and grant each and every
• 6:01
  single one of you peace on earth.
• 6:03
  And never forget, have faith, let it begin. Have a beautiful day. Take care, guys.
• 6:11
  Thank you for listening to Have Faith, Let It Begin. I'll be back tomorrow.
