You can hear me now, right? Amen. That's half the battle, right? At least we can hear. Amen. Amen. Hi, I'm Minister Melton, not Dr. Amen. But, uh, today we'll be giving out the word today. Amen. Amen. So, if you would, uh, lend your ear to me for a few minutes, we'll be just doing just fine. Amen. Amen. Um let us pray. Heavenly Father, we thank you for this day. We thank you for this time. We thank you for just another day's journey. We just ask you to bless us as we go forth to do your will, do your way. Let this word fall upon us, dear Lord, that we might be able to use it in our lives and to take it to somebody else that may need to know you and your in their s. Say thank you right now for all things. In the name of Jesus, we pray. Amen. Amen. All right. So, we're going to be starting again at uh Matthew 6 uh verse number 25. We're going to be continue what we were talking about what Dr. P was talking about about the sermon on the mount. So, we're just going right down in that uh that's that that frame. Amen. Amen. So, we'll be doing Matthew 25 and the King James version right now. 6:25. Excuse me, I might have messed that up. Sorry. But Matthew 6:25. Therefore, okay. Therefore, I say unto you, take no thought of your life, what you shall eat, or what you shall drink, nor yet for your body, what you shall put on. It is not is not your life more than meat and the body than raignment. Amen. Amen. Just one verse. We're just going to sit down from there. We'll go from there. Okay. Okay. This here is talking about worry. And right now there's a whole lot of stuff that we can worry about if we wanted to, right? The state of the world, uh certain situations going on in our lives and things like that. Excuse me. But we know that God is sufficient in all things. And so if we try to lean onto him, um, we'll be fine. But we really can't look at 6:25 unless we look at 624, which Dr. P was talking about before. And then that is uh no man can serve two masters for either you will hate one and love the other or else you will hold to one and despise the other. You cannot serve God and mammon. So we need to answer this question every day for ourselves. Who we going to serve? Are we going to serve God? Are we going to go and try to chase our dreams? Are we going to serve man? Are we going to go and let our situation take over our lives and things like that? So, if we serve God, then we can look at Matthew 6:25 and answer that question. Who are we going to serve? Because here we're talking about worry. Worry about the simplest things. What we're going to eat, what we're going to u drink, what we're going to put on. Knowing that all of us has a closet full of clothes. Some with the tag still on we haven't used yet. Right? Some stuff like that. We have a refrigerator full of food. Right now you can decide what you want to do, what you want to eat. You're going to even have decisions and say, "What can I eat? What can I do and what to drink? We got all kind of stuff to drink and things like that." The most simple and basic things the Lord always supplies to you and always will for you, you know. So if you look at that even through our young childhood life, we always had food. You always had a roof over your head. Mom and dad always survived and did everything else. So it's like, why are you worrying about simple things when you should be trying to look at God for everything? Amen. Amen. Give me a few minutes as I find my little voice here. Amen. All right. Our lives are more than just food. Much more. We have a God in heaven that cares for us. Amen. Yes, this is a reference to money and material things, but it also refers to our spirit man and our soul man. The spirit man will take thought of life and will submit to God's love and his provision. Spirit man. Amen. And Dr. Pool's been talking uh talking about to that uh the suit uh sule. Amen. And also the soul. The soul man. The soul man wants what life always has and much much more. They want anything everything and how can I get it? How can I keep it? How can I stop it? Everything they want to do. Okay. So we talked about that and we need to deflate that as Dr. P said. Amen. But remember the Bible always tells us that we all have one thing that is really truly ours. Okay. And which that's found in Proverbs 22 verse number one. A good name is more than desired and great wealth. Favor is better than silver and gold. Everybody has how do you see people? Well, how do you see people in this world? Because everybody has a a soul. Everybody has your your your reputation, okay? And everybody should have a good reputation. The Bible tells you it's better to have a good reputation than to have a bad reputation. And that goes and precedes anything other than what I'm going to eat or what I'm going to do because we had that since we were birth. So we know people that we know that that they have a bad reputation. We know that. We know people that have a good reputation. And we know people that say, "Well, that person is a good person, no matter how you look at it." So before I even start looking at who am I going to serve, I need to make sure that my body or my spirit is good for everything. Everything I need to do, excuse me. So how do people see you in this world? Better yet, how do you see yourself? If I do not see myself in a good light, then I'm not presenting a good light to anybody else. Amen. All right. So, I have to start looking and taking self-evaluation with myself every day. We're going to hear that word a lot. Every day and and um getting up. So, being a good man is always better than being a bad man. When I was at work one day or just recently, I was asked a question, "Am I a good man?" I said, "Yes." And then the question came and said, "How do you know you're a good man?" I said, "Well, I have Jesus." Amen. And then the question was, "Well, can you recite a scripture or something like that?" So yeah, I recited Psalms uh 31:24. Uh be of good courage and he shall strengthen your heart, all ye that have hope in the Lord. I have hope in the Lord, so I know I'm going to be okay no matter what. No matter what situation, I'm going to be that. And then the man proceeded to give me a hug and say, "Well, God bless you and thank you." So it always depends that you got to put God first in everything that you do, even in your work, even when you don't feel like it. anytime we have to do that. Excuse me. So, let's look at the word worry. Okay. Worry comes when we let things in some cases get out of hand. Dity walking with the Lord and facing the day in front of you can keep the worry out of way. The opposite is always going to be worry. If I go and face today, every situation, everything that I have, then I'm going to be okay. If in some cases it's bills or some cases is I didn't read my Bible, I didn't do that. Then you're letting things slide too much. So then you're going to worry because you're like, "Oh, well, I got this bill I got to pay. How I'm going to do that?" Or your body or your spirit's going to say, "Well, you didn't read for two days or you didn't pray for two days. we need to fix that. So, your body will tell you certain things and there's always indicators before you get to a worry part in your life to let you know that I need to stay with Jesus. Amen. In the Bible, worry is often defined as a state of anxiety or unease about future events stemming from lack of trust in God. His pres um his provision it is described as a intense struggle to rely on God's care amidst uncertainty. So when I do not rely on God's care, then that's when my worry starts coming in. That's when I start saying, well, who how am I going to eat? How am I going to do this? Even though I may have everything that I need, I'm still going to ask those questions. What do I need to do? You know, so our worry will choke out the word of God. So I can't hear the word of God when I'm worrying all the time because my mind is occupied. So now I'm taking my eyes off God. I'm letting my soul man take take uh take root. And in Matthew 37 uh 13:7 Matthew 13:7 and it says, "And some fall among thorns, and the thorns sprung up and choked them." And then if you look at Matthew 13:22, he says, "He also that received seed among the thorns, he that heareth the word and the cares of the world and a the deceitful of riches deceitfulness of riches choke the word and he became unfruitful." I cannot hear because I have a worry in my mind. People go so far into worrying that they refuse help and the word of God. So some people are so far in their worry. I don't need help. Don't help me. Don't do don't do that. Don't touch me. Don't talk to me. Let me stay in my worry. Right? We know people like that or we were something like that. Amen. Yet some will tell you, I do not want to hear anything about it's going to be all right. So some people tell you straight out, I have so much situation in my life and so much worry in my life that I don't even want to hear your positive talk about God or anything like that. That's going to bother me. Amen. So now you're really not hearing the word of God because now everything from your mind to your heart is cluttered with worry. And it might be the most simplest thing here. is just talking about food, drink, and clothes. Simple things, basic needs that everybody should have, right? Okay. There's nothing like we're not talking about a debt of $40,000 or $14,000 for for medication or anything like that. We're just talking about some food. We're just talking about a little drink. And that's simple. I can go get a Happy Meal for $5, right? Amen. Amen. We become hard to get along with disillusioning the fact that it is we have a better choice. We get we we get disillusioned thinking that there's not a better choice but there is a better choice. Right? So yes, if peace is a choice then worry is a choice. Okay? So if I say and get up today and say well thank the Lord for another day's journey. Thank the Lord I have breath in my body and thank the Lord that I can go and I have peace in my heart. I can also say, well, thank the Lord, but I'm going to worry today. Thank the Lord I still want to think about all the bills I have and all this other stuff. Regardless of what's going on or if I'm working or doing this or doing that, I'm still going to look at the situation is bigger than God. And we already know that no situation is bigger than God, right? Amen. How do you face the day? It's always going to be the question and you're going to hear that all through this sermon is how do you face the day? How do you face the situations? How do you face life? For us, it should be a simple choice, right? But for others, it may not be that simple of a choice. then it means how are you living? If I'm living good, then I have good thoughts. But if I'm living a hell ofious life, then yeah, I'm still going to have worry all over the place still. Now, what are you going to do? Amen. Again, having material things is not bad, but some of us can forget who supplied that need and we start to look down on fellow men. We start looking down. I work in a place where I see people high rollers and all this stuff. They have all kind of money, you know, and then they be like, "Well, who are you? You just cleaning the bathroom or who are you?" You know, so it's like they look down at you because I'm up here and you down here. In Christ and God, there is no respect of person. No matter what you do, I don't care if you're up here, down here, in the middle, wherever, you should always see God. Always see God. And I'm not judging people. Why? Because they want to judge me back. Simple things, simple principles are always here. No matter how you look at life, it's always the simple principles that you need to look at. God gives you provision no matter what. But if you do not want that provision, then things are going to get bad, right? Worry indicates a distrust and providance. And we see that um we look at the contrast of the verses from uh Matthew 6:26 and we'll start from there. Matthew 6:26, "Behold the fowls of the air, for they they sow not, neither do they reap, nor gather into barns. Yet your heavenly Father feedth them, and yet so much better than than they. God takes care of his creation from Adam to Eve and all the animals and us." So that's just my little commentary out of that verse. Amen. Amen. Um 26 shows which of you of you by taking thought can add any cubit unto your stature and then I say who can add anything to your life other than you try to shorten your life because you worry too much right they always said when I worked the graveyard oh the graveyard shift that means they were saying oh that's going to shorten your lifespan because you don't get sleep you don't do this you don't do that. So, I'm like, "Oh my goodness, really?" I'm like, "Really, that's supposed to happen like that? But wait, I have God. It's going to be okay." But, but when we still worry, when we don't focus on God and godly things, we start shortening our own lives. We start getting elements that we never thought we were going to have or like, "Oh, I have chest pain. I have this. I have that." You know, and this is not talking about mental health or anything like that. That's all true stuff. But this is talking about you adding worry that you don't need in your life. This is what that's all about. How am I going to do this? How I'm going to do that? How I'm going to do this? When God gave you provided you jobs and everything else to take care of that, right? He gave you a whole refrigerator of food that you can cook. And then they, you know, you listen to the like the old people when you were smaller, when you're coming up and they say, "Well, baby, you just go get you some beans and some rice and everything and that would just last for a long time." So you're like, "The provisions right there." And that still holds true today. If I want to last for food, find stuff that's going to last for a week, two weeks, I can eat for three meals, two meals, or if you got it like that, you can go out every day. You're okay. each restaurant. I want I'm going to do here. I'm going here. I'm going to go here. But the provision is always there. Right? So now we're looking at worry. We're worrying about all this other stuff. And now we're saying, "What what what what I need to do? Okay. Is God going to help me? God going to supply my need when the need's already there." Okay. Uh 6:28. And we take, excuse me, and why take ye thought of raignment? Consider the liies of the field, how they grow. They toil not to not, neither do they span yet. And yet I say unto you that even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one. You don't even see the flowers come up. And all you do is see the flowers there, right? You don't see like at night they go down or come up and all that other stuff. All you see is the the the the beauty of it. You see the beauty of the flowers. If you're driving to California, you see the beauty of the t cactus and everything else out there. The Lord provided all that out there for you to see. It never changes. It never even when they say it's in a drought, there's still beautiful stuff out there, right? So even when you say I'm in a drought in my life, God is still there to provide for you. Amen. So, so then then we got to look at if there is a drought, how did I get to the drought? Now we're looking at our living again. Now I'm looking at who am I serving? Now I'm looking at all these other things. What I did? Oh, did I not pay this bill and I let did this now they're saying, "Well, we need the money now." Or or what is it? Or is it like, "Oh, I wanted this, so I'm going to go get this and I'm leaving above my means." We, you know, that's a true thing above my means. Or am I living right where I need to be? Questions we need to ask ourselves every day. Amen. Amen. All right. And um that was 6 that was 28 29. So 6:30. Whether if God clothed the grass of the field, which is today, today is, and tomorrow is cast into the oven, shall he not much more clothe ye, oh ye of little faith? The grass, I used to cut grass. It's all this high. Cut it and was like, "Oh, wow. That's satisfying. It's all down low and everything like that." But the grass was gone and then it came back up and you're worried about things that you don't need to be worried about. Where's your faith in God? Where's your faith in God? We we we have faith everything else for the big things and all this other stuff. Oh, you got the car. I got this. I got that. all these stuff. But the small things, food, drink, work for some of you, retirement for some of you, you know, wherever you are in your life, all these simple things. You don't need to make God complicated. God is never complicated. God is always right where you need to be. Okay? Right where you need to be. He meets you right there at your need all the time. If I don't feel I'm finding God, all I need to do is sit down and pray a little bit more. And then I center myself so I can see God in everything I do. In everything that I do, everything. Okay? Just getting up. You have limbs. You have you have activity that some people may not have. Come on now. Just just breathing. Come on now. The simplest thing that you don't even think about, it's right there for you. But yet have asthma and start being hard to breathe. Then you started like, "Oh my goodness, what's going on?" My mom has asthma. She actually passed away from asthma. But she always when, you know, when she did have a attack, she was like, "Well, I'm going to church first." Went to church, came back, then went to the hospital. I seen it straight out. I seen it straight out. But yeah, she's like, even down to my dad, even though he he was about to pass away, same thing. Take me to church. Went to church first. Then couple days later, he went and went to glory to be with God. I'm like the simple things. You didn't even have that opportunity. And then some of us don't even want to come to church. Well, that person ain't, you know, you know how we say that person ain't doing this, so I ain't going. You know, person did this to me at work. I ain't going. I'm a little tired, but if I lean on God, I'm going to be okay. Amen. And 31. Uh, are we doing 31 now? Yes, we are. Therefore, take no thought, saying, "What shall we eat, or what shall we drink, or what wherewith all shall we be clothed? For all these things did the Gentiles seek for heavenly uh for your heavenly father knoweth that you have need for all of these things." So, your father, your heavenly father, he knows everything that you need. Everything that you need. Now it's up to us to do the work and make sure that we seed his blessings in everything that we need, right? And not get crazy and not, you know, not trust him for one day or two days or for one hour. I got to trust him for everything. Amen. Amen. And I always say I always say if I have a little or if I'm on the street, I still got God. No matter what this what situation are you in today, I still got God. And all of us to have nice houses and everything else and you have places to go. Some people don't have places to go other than the on the street, a tent. But yet, if I have God, I still have everything. Simple facts. Simple facts. If I had a mansion, I still got God. Okay. And then we were talking about character. That's what I was trying to get to earlier. Character. What is your character for uh today? Your character. Your character speaks volumes of everything that you do. Yes. I'm supposed to have a Christlike life, but my character carries that Christlike life. Okay? So if I'm uh hard to get along with and disillusioned and everything else, then that's going to betray to everybody else that I meet, right? So now I got to try to put my good foot forward. Okay? No matter what the situation is. Amen. Amen. Our worry mars the peace of our home. Okay? And we looked at see that at Luke chapter 10 verse number 40. But Martha was cumbered about much serving and came to him and said,"Lord, does thou not care that my sister have left me to serve alone? Bid her therefore that she help me." Martha, excuse me, Martha was covered by m serving uh by much serving and wanted company. Sometimes we want company in our worry. I'm miserable. So you come and join me. Come join me and be miserable, too. Wait, let me tell you what happened. Let me tell you what they did to me. Sometimes we listen and then they're like, "Don't you agree with me? Don't you They did this. They did that." I had one guy said, "Well, they tell me, "Please don't get offended. Please don't get offended." The guy said, "They tell me I stink. James, do you think I stink?" I'm like, "Dude, I cannot talk about that." But yet, it's like he's asked me a question. Do I stink? If somebody tells me I stink, I'm like, "Oh, man. I'm sorry I offended you. let me go see if I can, you know, take care of it. But he wanted me to stay in that worry with him. I'm like, "No, I ain't going to worry about that." He did stink, though. He did. He really did. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. That's just a sidebar, but we just had I broke it up. Everybody's laughing now. That's good. That's good. All right. We can laugh with God. It's all good. All right. And so I said, "I am miserable. I'm worried. So join me." Some people really have nothing to worry about. But will tell you that I'm only happy if I have something to worry about or concerned about. You cannot have peace in my life because I got to have something that I got to be like instead of just saying, "Well, thank the Lord for everything." That's that's good. Thank the Lord that everything's taken care of. You know, it's always good when you have peace in your home, right? All right. Then your home went from harmony to discourse because somebody wants to be bothered about something. See, and then they somebody chose to be worried about it instead of saying, "Well, thank the Lord for what we got." Okay. Here's the difference between worry and genuine concern. Worry immobilizes us, but concern moves us to action. If I'm worried, I don't know what to do. I'm stuck. I'm racking my brain to figure it out instead of saying, "Lord, help me. Show me the way." If I'm concerned about something, I'm going to get up and go look for it. Say you're concerned about your child or something like that. You're either going to text that person or you're going to say, "Well, where's that child at, concerned about God? Either I'm going to read my Bible and pray or I'm not concerned and I'm going to sit down and worry about everything else." See how simple that is? My concern is what I need to be concerned about. Yeah, I'm concerned about my job. I got to go there and do that. That's that's that's a given. I'm concerned about my family members, my wife, and everything else. Amen. And I didn't welcome my wife. I didn't say thank you for the opportunity. So, forgive me. But I'm saying it now. Amen. Amen. Amen. I have to do that cuz I'll forget later on. I'll definitely forget. So, you saw how fast I forgot earlier. um with worry. I'm stuck in one place, but I'm concerned about a thing. I'm going to go seek it out. Look how Jesus answered Martha. And now we're looking at Luke chapter 10, verse number 41. And Jesus answered and said unto her, Martha, Martha, thou art careful and troubled about many things. And 42 says, "But one thing is is needful, and Mary hath chosen the good part which shall not be taken away from her." Amen. She chose the good part to just sit at God at Jesus' feet at that time. We need to choose the good part and sit at God's feet. All right? Or Dr. P's feet as he's the shepherd of this house. Amen. Amen. So we always can see worry in anything that we want to do. We see the world's always is in chaos right now. You see everything else is going on. But if I have God, I'm going to be okay. The Bible destin uh definition or precept of worry is Philippians 4 and six in the NIV. We can do that. four and six in the NIV. Do not be anxious for anything, but in every situation by prayer and petition with thanksgiving, present your request to God. Amen. Amen. First thing I can do is pray about it. Give it over to God. The answers will come. Psalms 55:22 says, a lot of people know this, "Cast thou burdens upon the Lord, and he shall sustain thee. He shall never suffer the righteous to be moved." And then I say, I will trust the Lord. Amen. Amen. So, we're looking at Matthew 6:33. It says, "But seek ye first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all these things shall be added unto you first. I have to seek. I'm concerned about God, right? So, I'm going to seek him out. I'm going to seek his his his study. I'm going to seek his word. I'm going to seek everything about God that's going to show me that I have provision and everything that I need and want." Okay? So, um, that doesn't mean that I sit and be lazy and wait for stuff to fall to me and all this other stuff. I have to be proactive about it. Faith is always being in action, right? Faith is never going to be stopped. It says that faith faith without works is dead. So, I have to put work into what I have to what I'm concerned about. Yes. If I'm worried, I ain't going to put work into it. So, it's like, why bother? I'm worried about it, so let me still worry about it. even though I can fix it or the Lord can fix it for me, but still I'm going to worry about it and I'm still just going to stay right where I'm at. See, so then that's with your character. Also, if you worry about stuff and and things like you can always change your character. You can always change your will of what you want to do. I know people that told me say, "Well, it's good you met me now because before I was a I was bad. I was this. I was that." or or when I heard the sirens, I was like ducking and dodging and everything like that. But now you see me now and and my character changed. So I'm good. I'm okay. So So you can always change your character. You can always get more Christlike, but just don't get uncristlike. Please. Okay? Please don't do that. Notice that this means that we need to do our part in this and be about our father's business. Amen. 365 souls. I can show God to somebody today. Yes. Amen. Amen. Even though there's all kind of stuff going on, situations, I still going to put God first. Amen. Um work that you uh work that you means and that you may be able to sew and and gather and not sitting waiting for things to happen and uh waiting for them to fall into your lap. Amen. Amen. So 634 tells us that therefore no thought for tomorrow. Take therefore no thought for for tomorrow for tomorrow. For tomorrow shall take thought of itself of other of the things of itself. Sufficient unto the day is the end thereof. Amen. Evil thereof. Amen. Amen. So that means that I don't need to worry about tomorrow. I need to be present and right here right now of what I'm doing. Amen. Amen. So, what does the Bible tell you? That we can't do nothing with the future and we can't do nothing with our past or we can't do nothing with the past. We can't do nothing the future. But all we can do is stay right here and do what we can right now. Be here now. Okay. When I was in elementary school, that was the first thing they taught me. Be here now, James. So, so I was like, "Oh, okay. Be here now." I was like, "Okay." It didn't didn't really resonate until when you really get older and you start seeing things like, "Oh, they taught me that. Okay, that means be aware. Be what you're going to be right now." Don't be just like, "What am I going to do now?" Think be be uh obedient to what you're doing right now. Amen. Be concerned. And that even means like family and everything else. Be concerned. Be here now. Um Luke 21:34 in the NI Ni uh NIT New Living Translation. Okay. Yes. And it says, "Watch out. Don't let your hearts be dullled by carousing and drunkenness and by the worries of this life. Don't let the day catch you unaware like a trap. For that day will come upon everyone living on the earth. Meaning that day that soon judgment is coming. So don't don't get so concerned with your worry in this life that you you miss God and you forget about God. Amen. So if I'm being present to what I'm doing today, then I'm trying to be in the situation with God every day. Amen. Amen. So that doesn't mean I'm thinking about what's going to happen and all this stuff, everything. Yeah. Prepare, save, do all these other things to be be ready for rainy days and everything else because God gave you those things to do. He told you that. He told you about the answer, how to gather and everything like that. They told you all these things of how to survive this life. Amen. But if we don't do that, then what happens? our worry comes in. What am I going to do? I ain't got that. I ain't got that. But he will supply the need that you need. All right. It may not be a big old windfall, but it will be the need that you need at that time. Amen. So, we have enough things in this life or this day to worry about. Then I have to start thinking about things for tomorrow. So right now I just need to definitely trust God about everything that I'm doing, everything that I'm doing. So then that way I can be an effective witness to everybody. I can put God first. I can put my good foot forward and I don't have to be like, "Oh my goodness." Or somebody can say, "Well, James, you're saying one thing and you're living another way." Nobody can say that. You shouldn't be able to. Your character should be good enough where everybody can say, "Well, that was a good person. That's a that person is right. That person is is okay." You know, I said, "If I know if I go to them, they're going to give me a good answer. Not going to give me all kind of foolishness and everything else." Amen. Because, you know, some people do give you that foolishness, right? Some people want to go and and like, "Oh, well, did you hear about this? Oh, they're going to lay off people. Oh, they're gonna do this. I'm like, okay, no problem. Thank the Lord. And we keep going. We think we forget about CO. It's a distant memory. But he survived. He He prospered everybody through that, right? That total uncertainty when they started shutting everything down and nobody knew what was going on and everybody was like, "Oh my goodness, what's this? What's that?" And all we had to say was like, "Let me look to God. We still had food. We still had drink. You still had clothes. Some of us still had jobs. And if you did, you had a place to stay. Nobody was on the street going, "What's this and what's that?" And if they were in the hospital like my brother was or had CO, then they either came out or they went on to be glory. But either way, it was still good. Either way, it was still good. And you see the provision every day in your life. But yet, somebody's going to worry about what I'm going to eat. Somebody's going to say, "My whole day is messed up because of this." Instead of saying, "Well, God, show me the way. Guide me. I trust you. I give you all. I give you all and then I'll be okay. Most simplest thing that you ever see is just trusting God day by day. Amen. I thank you for this time. We may get out a little bit early, but I thank you for everything that you did. Amen. I hope that helped somebody. I hope that did somebody. And if it didn't, just trust God. He'll fix he'll show you the way. Amen. Amen. Uh again, I want to thank Dr. P for the opportunity uh for for giving me the opportunity for this. Again, thank my wife and thank y'all for coming out. Um and uh we're going to stand and be dismissed. Amen. See, you got out early today. That's a good thing. Don't tell Dr. P, though, cuz Yeah, we're going to be in trouble. Heavenly Father, we thank you for this day. We thank you for this time. We thank you that we can cast our cares to you, dear Lord, and that we don't have to worry about anything, dear Lord, because you're going to provide for us, dear Lord. If we do the things that we need to do of you, yet you will do the things that you need to do of you of us. We say thank you right now for all things. Bless the households. Bless everybody. Just give us the strength to carry on. In the name of Jesus, we do pray. Amen.
