• 1:52
  together, and we are collaborating so that we can give away 20 oil changes.

  I'm telling you guys, they're a great place to go. We've taken our vehicles
• 2:04
  there, and if you're local and you are willing and trusting,
• 2:08

  They're safe, they're honest, and they will only work on your vehicle for the
• 2:15
  areas that need to be worked on.
• 2:17
  Well, here we go. That's kind of our segue into today's episode.
• 2:20
  As we begin our journey here in Half-Aid, Let It Begin, in this amazing,
• 2:25
  cold, frigid temperatures yet again. It's a Wednesday.
• 2:28
  It's February 5th. Boy, oh boy. I cannot believe that nine days away from Valentine's
• 2:33
  day. So make sure you go out there and take a look.
• 2:36
  Hey, here's a plug for you. You know, there's a great jewelry store.
• 2:39
  I know it. I know the owner. I'm married to her. Yeah.
• 2:42
  Joint Two Jewelers is located in Montgomery.
• 2:45
  Definitely go take a look. There's a lot of great sales. All right.
• 2:49
  I've plugged enough this morning.
• 2:50
  What's the message today, right well the message is giving to others.
• 2:56
  How often have you found yourself giving to someone in need?
• 3:01
  Are you the type of person that when you're at work, you get ready to take a
• 3:05
  break and you go, hey, you want something?
• 3:07
  And the person says, no, I'm good. But then you get to the cafeteria and you
• 3:11
  see that extra muffin and you buy it anyway and you go back and say,
• 3:13
  here, here's a muffin for you.
• 3:15
  And they look at you and say, no, no, no, no, no. And you say,
• 3:18
  no, I was thinking about you.
• 3:19
  Or maybe when you're shopping and you realize that maybe your mom or your dad
• 3:23
  or maybe your neighbor is short of milk because you overheard her say that and
• 3:27
  you buy an extra milk and you bring it over and say, hey, I thought maybe you'd be low on milk.
• 3:32
  Giving, you know, it's not always about actually purchasing things.
• 3:38
  You can give in so many ways. You can give by just a phone call and that gives
• 3:44
  somebody, you know, a little bit of understanding that you are thinking about them.
• 3:49
  It gives them a little bit of desire to talk and some people are lonely and
• 3:54
  they need a chance to have a conversation and they don't get many phone calls.
• 3:59
  So by you making a phone call, you're giving back to them.
• 4:03
  Or how about when maybe you're walking around and you notice that the neighbor's
• 4:07
  lawn needs to be cut and you say to yourself, I know nobody's going to help them.
• 4:12
  Let me go ahead and gas up or charge up the lawnmower and you just start to mow the lawn for them.
• 4:19
  It's about giving. Here's the best gift you can give anyone.
• 4:23
  Prayer. Prayer is amazing. The gift of prayer, the power of prayer is by far the best gift.
• 4:32
  Do you know how you can also give back to the Lord? Take a few minutes,
• 4:36
  a few seconds, and pray with him and let him know that you're thinking of him.
• 4:41
  So Have Faith, Let It Begin is doing a promotion, right?
• 4:44
  We're doing something to help out you, the listeners, and help out with your oil changes.
• 4:50
  It's not about something that's going to say, oh, Angel, you're the best.
• 4:54
  Oh, 86 Auto World, you're the best.
• 4:56
  No, we want to do that. It was something that we came up with.
• 5:00
  We said, hey, you know, let's give back to the community.
• 5:03
  And we thought of an idea and we just did it. We didn't even think twice about
• 5:07
  what was going to happen.
• 5:10
  Yes, obviously it does give good promotion. Let's be real.
• 5:13
  But it wasn't that intention. It was just two guys sitting together and said,
• 5:17
  hey, I have an idea. Let's give something out as a prize.
• 5:20
  And without even thinking, you know, Miguel, the owner and myself,
• 5:25
  Angel, the half-faith, let it begin, you know, owner of the podcast.
• 5:28
  We didn't even, we just was like, this is a great idea because we want to give. We want to give back.
• 5:35
  So I'm asking all of you to come up with one thing that you can do today to give back to someone.
• 5:42
  I know that Carol always gives back to me with amazing feedback.
• 5:48
  She always has such beautiful thoughts for me.
• 5:51
  I know Nick always says, great episode, Angel. This is what I thought about
• 5:54
  it. Or listen, Nick's coming back on the show soon.
• 5:57
  That's another thing. He's giving back to others a message.
• 6:02
  We've got Clinton coming back to share his personal story and personal testimonies,
• 6:07
  returns. That's giving.
• 6:10
  God rewards those that rewards others.
• 6:15
  God is in our presence. He wants us to be giving.
• 6:20
  He wants us to love. He wants us to share. He wants us to be happy.
• 6:26
  And what better way to be happy than to give and not expect anything in return?
• 6:31
  Giving is special. And all of you are special. Let us pray.
• 6:38
  Heavenly Father, on this beautiful, crazy, crazy winter day,
• 6:42
  we think about the word giving.
• 6:45
  We think about sharing. And we think about what we can do to make this world
• 6:50
  a better place, one random act of kindness at a time.
• 6:54
  We thank you, Lord, for today's message. We thank you, Lord,
• 6:58
  for the ability to come together.
• 7:00
  And we pray the words that you taught us, our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name.
• 7:07
  Thy kingdom come, thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven.
• 7:13
  Give us this day our daily bread and forgive us our debts as we forgive our debtors.
• 7:20
  Lead us not into temptation, deliver us from evil.
• 7:24
  For yours is the kingdom, the power, and the glory forever and ever.
• 7:29
  Amen. May God be with you. May he shine his light upon you and grant each and
• 7:34
  every single one of you Peace on earth.
• 7:37
  And never forget, have faith, let it begin. See you tomorrow.
• 7:42
  Thank you for listening to Have Faith, Let It Begin. We'll be back tomorrow.
