  Speaker 1: Good morning, Good morning, good morning.
• 0:01
  Speaker 2: It is time for us to go to God in prayer,
• 0:03
  Speaker 2: and as always I ask that you join along with
• 0:07
  Speaker 2: me in prayer. Today is Monday, It's family Day. And
• 0:11
  Speaker 2: I was sitting there and I was reflecting, and I
• 0:13
  Speaker 2: was thinking about my family. How we grew up poor, y'all.
• 0:17
  Speaker 2: It was rough, it was it was, but God sustained us.
• 0:21
  Speaker 2: God provided for us. God is good. I thank God
• 0:25
  Speaker 2: for my mom every single day and every sacrifice she
• 0:28
  Speaker 2: made for our family.
• 0:29
  Speaker 1: I thank God for my Daddy. I do.

  Speaker 2: And then I was thinking about today and how good
• 0:35
  Speaker 2: God is to me, How good God is to my mama,
• 0:40
  Speaker 2: how good God is to my family. You know, so
• 0:42
  Speaker 2: often we're living this life right, and as we're living life,
• 0:47
  Speaker 2: sometimes we start taking things for granted that God has
• 0:49
  Speaker 2: done in our life. I always say this when I'm
• 0:52
  Speaker 2: out and about, when I'm hosting a preaching or whatever.
• 0:54
  Speaker 2: If you just take a few minutes to think, you'll
• 0:56
  Speaker 2: begin to think. When I think about how things were
• 1:00
  Speaker 2: growing up, When I think about I have options, When
• 1:03
  Speaker 2: I go to the refrigerator and look inside, I'm grateful, y'all.
• 1:07
  Speaker 2: I'm so grateful to God that I decide which restaurant
• 1:10
  Speaker 2: I'm gonna eat at today, or I decide what I'm
• 1:13
  Speaker 2: gonna cook today, not because it's the only thing in
• 1:15
  Speaker 2: the refrigerator, but because that's what I choose. Sometimes we
• 1:19
  Speaker 2: are so blessed and we don't realize. If you know
• 1:22
  Speaker 2: that old saying, we complain and it got a little
• 1:24
  Speaker 2: of bread up under our arms. I just want to
• 1:27
  Speaker 2: take a moment to tell God, thank you, thank you
• 1:29
  Speaker 2: for where you brought us from.
• 1:30
  Speaker 1: Thank you, Lord God.
• 1:31
  Speaker 2: You know we look at other people's lives and we
• 1:33
  Speaker 2: envy their lives, and we still feel like we not
• 1:35
  Speaker 2: good enough because we don't measure up to what they're
• 1:38
  Speaker 2: doing or what they have.
• 1:41
  Speaker 1: Stop comparing.
• 1:43
  Speaker 2: Oh, Father God, in the name of Jesus Christ, we
• 1:45
  Speaker 2: come to you God, first of all, God, just being grateful.
• 1:48
  Speaker 2: Thank you for how you've blessed us. Thank you for
• 1:50
  Speaker 2: how you've provided for us. Thank you for how you've
• 1:53
  Speaker 2: kept us through danger seen and unseen, through our own
• 1:57
  Speaker 2: mistakes and failures. Thank you for how you kept us,
• 2:00
  Speaker 2: and forgive us for every time we seem and we
• 2:03
  Speaker 2: are ungrateful for every time we take your blessings for granted.
• 2:07
  Speaker 1: We're sorry. We repent before you God, forgive us.
• 2:10
  Speaker 2: God, we don't ever want to take any of your
• 2:13
  Speaker 2: blessings for granted. Thank you for making a way where
• 2:15
  Speaker 2: there seemed to have been no way. God, we look
• 2:17
  Speaker 2: back over our lives and we say, oh, look, this
• 2:19
  Speaker 2: is the Lord's doing.
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: And it is marvelous in our eyes.
• 2:22
  Speaker 2: You healed us when we were sick, You opened doors
• 2:25
  Speaker 2: that were closed in our face. You showed favor on
• 2:27
  Speaker 2: our lives, and God, for that we're grateful. Today we
• 2:31
  Speaker 2: come humbly asking that you forgive us for taking anything
• 2:35
  Speaker 2: that you've done in our lives for granted, and just
• 2:39
  Speaker 2: simply saying God.
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: Thank you, We appreciate you in Jesus' name. Amen,
