1:17
Good morning, everyone, and welcome to the April 24th edition,
1:21
and that's a Thursday at Have Faith Let It Begin.
1:24
And I, if I sound a little hoarse, it's because I spent the majority of the
1:30
overnight taking my final exam for ministry school.
1:34
Looks pretty good. I think so far I got about a, it's a point system.
1:38
So there's like almost like three parts to it.
1:42
So the first two parts scored an 84.
1:45
So that means we still have 60 points to go.
1:50
It's out of 70. Let me rephrase. The first section is 70 points.
1:55
I got 58 out of 70, which means I got an 84%. Now I'm waiting for the additional
2:00
short answer to be reviewed and then I'll have a final grade.
2:04
Then they have to review one of my book reports and then I'll have a final grade.
2:09
But right now my grade point average is a B plus. So I'm happy.
2:13
Yeah, so with that being said, I'm walking Cody this morning.
2:17
Got a lot of things to do today. Ariel has a doctor's appointment.
2:20
Keep her in thought and prayer. and also happy to announce that Noah starts his first day of school.
2:26
It's like a school to prepare him before pre-K.
2:31
So we're dropping him off this afternoon. I have also a cardiology appointment.
2:37
My wife eventually has a dentist appointment.
2:40
It is a packful day and I want to give a shout outs to coworkers for stepping
2:46
up and helping me take a day off. Rochelle and Nick, God bless you.
2:50
Thank you very much. And of course, my boss, Linda, you know,
2:53
everybody just really assisted me. And I thank you for that.
2:57
So today's message is quite simple. It's coming together and looking out for one another.
3:03
You know, we're living in a day and age right now where it seems like everything
3:06
is I, I, I, you know, and I'm not talking about AI.
3:10
I'm talking about I, you know, everybody's in it for themselves.
3:13
And I'm so grateful and I'm fortunate.
3:15
I was talking to Nick about this at work yesterday. I work personally in an
3:19
environment where everybody is just seeming to get along.
3:22
Finally after years of of frustration i'm not gonna lie you know we i'm the last of that regime,
3:30
and i've been praying and hoping that one day i would have a team that you know
3:35
we can rely on and we can get along together and and and we have that so you
3:40
know i know we've been talking about this on half faith that i begin about our
3:45
environments and coming together and getting along. I'm curious.
3:49
I haven't got much feedback from you guys. So I know Carol will.
3:53
I expect a feedback, Ms. Carol. I love your feedback.
3:58
But yeah, tell me how you're feeling. Tell me how things are going in your work
4:03
environment, or maybe you're just your social environment.
4:05
What is going on right now that makes you grateful or maybe frustrated about
4:11
what's happening in that environment.
4:13
Maybe we can, we can praise the Lord for that, or we can pray to the Lord and
4:17
see if we can get things better.
4:19
And we just want to do everything in our part to make sure that all of us feel
4:24
good about everything that we do in this world.
4:26
Cause I know that I know that with each other and the power of prayer,
4:30
we can find a way to really understand how we.
4:37
With the power of prayer and the body of christ that we that we make
4:40
up together can overcome any obstacle any any
4:44
bad situation so with that being said let's get our minds and hearts together
4:49
and pray as i walk with cody this morning heavenly father what a beautiful spring-like morning,
5:01

5:06
we thank you Lord for the birds chirping, for the sun for the green grass,
5:11
we thank you Lord for always allowing us the opportunity to come together each
5:17
morning and to share with one another Lord we pray for our half faith that begin family members,
5:25

5:29
out and say, hey, I'm frustrated, or hey, things are good.
5:34
Thank you for technology that allows us to do that from all the ends of the world.
5:40
We pray this unto you in the name of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
