So it's Friday, and I can't think of any better question to close out our week than this one.
0:08
If you want to look at all the disciples, which disciple would you say you are?
0:14
I want you to think about that question, because Have Faith,
0:17
Let It Begin, Friday edition, February 28th, starts right now.

Have Faith, Let It Begin, and it starts right now.

1:21
Daddy, I'm so excited! But I have one question. What's your question?
1:25
I'm going to be a pastor or a minister?
1:28
Good question. I don't know, but it is all in God's hands. Good morning.
1:32
You're listening to Have Faith Let It Begin, and it starts right now.
1:38
Good morning, everyone, and welcome to Have Faith Let It Begin.
1:40
It's a Friday. It is February 28th.
1:44
February is pretty much gone, everybody. It is buh-bye.
1:48
Say hello to March. It's coming. And ladies and gentlemen, it is a Friday and
1:52
I am feeling so good after, you know, going out last night and being a part
1:58
of a Spanish service. That was amazing.
2:00
Listening to some Spanish music and Spanish ministry was, it really felt like
2:04
I was back when I was a little kid and my grandma would take me to church in
2:08
the Bronx and we'd start singing, Dame la mano, Dame la mano.
2:13
Okay. Anyway, no, it was a really, really cool experience, but I'm very hyped up for today.
2:18
So let's get right into it. You know, if you know anything about Jesus Christ,
2:23
you know, he had disciples.
2:25
And I'm just curious which disciple you would think you are,
2:31
which disciple you think you remind yourself of.
2:35
You know, for me, I struggle with this question, even though I threw it out.
2:40
I think at one point, I want to say I'm more of a, oh, my GPS is going off.
2:46
Hey, all right, cool. Yes, I know where I'm going.
2:48
I think for me, it's all the question of how many parts of each disciple remind
2:56
me of who I am or who I want to be.
3:03
I can say that at certain times I was Peter. I can say that at times I was like John.
3:11
I do believe that I have had doubts. So I can think of Thomas.
3:17
And I can just think of all of them. That's just to name a few.
3:21
I think at one point or another, we all have a little piece of a disciple in us.
3:27
We're all human. We all have those characteristics.
3:30
We all make mistakes. We all have times where we just don't know where we want to be,
3:38
where we're going and the uncertainty and the fear of the unknown.
3:45
I think that's where we're at.
3:47
How many times that you can recall,
3:51
whether you were in your teens, your 20s, your 30s, 40s, 50s,
3:55
60s, 70s, how many times have you said to yourself, does God hear my prayers? is God listening to me.
4:03
How many times do I have to shout it out to God for him to hear me?
4:07
Have you said those things before?
4:10
I know I have. I've done it. And then you feel guilty sometimes for saying it.
4:15
And you feel like, wait a minute, should I have said those things?
4:20
We're human. And well, guess what? Jesus was human.
4:25
And he wanted us and still wants us to walk that path of righteousness.
4:32
But how do we do that? How do we walk the path of righteousness?
4:36
Well, we can start by putting our faith and trust in the Lord and knowing that
4:41
Jesus Christ is our Lord and Savior.
4:44
And between him, his Father, and the Holy Spirit, they are all as one.
4:49
And together, you, the listener, you, our friends from Have Faith Let It Begin,
4:56
our families, we all together collectively make the body of Christ. And how do we do that?
5:02
Putting our faith, our trust in him and knowing that when we are a part of the
5:08
everlasting spirit and love that God has for us, guess what?
5:13
We can do no wrong in his eyes. We are forgiven.
5:18
We are God's children. So as you go about your Friday, I want you to think about
5:23
which disciple you think you're closest to.
5:28
Which disciple reminds me, reminds you of you?
5:31
And send it back to me, 845-391-2312.
5:38
Email me, angel at halffaithletabigot.com. I want to hear what your answer is going to be.
5:44
I want you to share with me in that glory because I believe that together with
5:51
God by our side and knowing that no matter what we do together,
5:57
we can accomplish anything.
5:59

6:10
And we ask you, Lord, to be with each and every one of our families as we go
6:16
about our day and allow this weekend to come and allow us to feel good about the decisions we make.
6:23
Lord, we know that with you and through you, every and anything is possible.
6:28
We ask this of you, Lord, today in the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit.
6:33
May God be with you. May he shine his light upon you and grant each and every
6:37
single one of you peace on earth. and never forget, have faith, let it begin.
6:44
