00:13 Welcome back!
00:14 Aren't you just amazed at God, I'm amazed at God. 00:17 Max I wanted you to stay up because I knew there 00:20 was a few more things that you wanted to say not only 00:22 to the people in the Café, but the folks at home. 00:24 So go ahead. 00:26 Well one of the things I wanted to mention is that 00:29 the cool thing about God and that personal relationship 00:32 with Him is that it is a complete work. 00:34 He doesn't complete work and the Bible says in 00:37 Philippians 1:6 that He finishes what He starts. 00:40 It is not a to do list like we treat a to do list 00:42 and forget about it. 00:43 He doesn't forget about it, He knows those little 00:45 areas in your life that still are hard. 00:48 But I want to mention that there are times in your 00:53 life, in Mark 2, it says but there are times in your 00:56 life where you are going to need the strength of other 00:59 men or other women who are going to need to carry you 01:02 to that place where God is so that He could do great 01:07 things in your life. 01:08 I know if it wasn't for my heart staying submitted to 01:13 great men like Kerry and my pastor. 01:15 There are times that I'm going to be challenged, 01:17 I'm being honest with you but it takes men who were 01:19 around you to say, hey how are you doing. 01:21 And I love what you're saying, in my rebellion that 01:24 is impossible for me to do, I don't want to grab hold 01:27 of anybody else, I don't want to admit that I need this. 01:30 Right and you know, to speak to the other side those 01:34 who are working with those people that are broken to 01:37 know that it is love that builds a bridge. 01:39 The Bible says that God's love leads us to repentance, 01:44 well if it takes God's love to lead us to repentance 01:47 is going to take our love to lead people to repentance. 01:50 Again love builds a bridge, touch heart before you ask 01:54 for the hand. 01:55 They don't care about what should know until they 01:57 know how much you care. 01:58 Amen and that is more of a reality than people think. 02:02 It's like, to me when I came into the church I was 02:05 so starved of not being loved. 02:07 I was so starved of never seeing anyone do the right 02:10 thing, that for someone to literally reach out and love me 02:14 was the answer. 02:17 It wasn't that I got a check list and figured out what 02:19 to do, that somebody told me that behavior looks like 02:21 this, it's that I looked in someone's eyes and realized 02:24 that they cared about who I was. 02:26 I want to say thank you again for 02:27 being on the program. 02:28 If you're watching and heard any of that, for one 02:31 if you are in the church, if you don't know how to love 02:34 somebody, ask for the Holy Spirit to fill you up. 02:37 He cause the first gift of the Holy Spirit we covered 02:39 last season was love, first gift is agape love and we 02:42 need that and the whole world needs that, definitely 02:46 an injured child needs that, I need that. 02:48 Just ask for that, if you are out there and you 02:51 are lost, man, hold on to God, grab a hold of somebody. 02:55 Until next time always remember that God is crazy 02:58 about you and so are we will see you next week, bye! |
