- 1:29Times we share it, the better it is for us to be out there spreading the word
- 1:33of Christ and spreading the message each and every day, one share at a time.
- 1:39And that's how we pass it on.
- 1:40Ladies and gentlemen, on YouTube right now, the sermon that I did has just launched.
- 1:46So there's two versions. The edited version is a lot smaller. It's less than an hour.
- 1:51I think it's about 25 to 26 minutes because it's got some intros in there.
- 1:55So that's available for you to watch. It's called you were given a voice.
- 1:58We're also going to air that this Friday here on our platform,
- 2:01but I just want you to know the video format is up and running.
- 2:05Well, this is what I wanted to talk to you about today.
- 2:08When you go into work, I am a firm believer that a good prayer is a great way to start your day.
- 2:13A day without prayer is a day without power. I've said it a thousand times and I'll keep saying it.
- 2:18And sometimes, you know, we go into an environment where not everyone follows,
- 2:23the same path that we try to follow.
- 2:25Not everyone believes in a higher power. Not everyone believes in prayer. And that's okay.
- 2:30That is your choice. And I do not judge and I will not judge you for it.
- 2:36But for those of you that do believe in God, for those of you that believe in
- 2:40your faith and want to strengthen your faith and strengthen your environment
- 2:44around you, here's my recommendation.
- 2:46Before you get out of the car or as you're walking into the building,
- 2:50or even if you're in the hallway, it is always great to recite the Our Father, the Lord's Prayer.
- 2:57It is always great to just say a quick prayer and to ask God to be with you
- 3:02and to guide you and Also to pray with for your colleagues and your friends
- 3:06and all those that are not with you on this day,
- 3:09So today is an example of what I do as i'm getting ready for work,
- 3:14And I hope that you enjoy it and we will conclude at the end of that prayer
- 3:18So here's what I usually do,
- 3:20and never forget have faith Let it begin. This is what I normally do.
- 3:24All right taking the keys out of my car.
- 3:27Heavenly father as i walk into work this morning i am asking you lord for,
- 3:33peace there is an environment that can get hostile at times with so many people
- 3:38that are dealing with losses illnesses diagnosis as you know i work in a hospital
