you guys remember me and beginning of last service someone tapped me on the shoulder and said hey do you guys know do you know when Todd's gonna be back I yeah I did a great job I've been listening every week on the on the on the podcast and you know just so awesome to hear the word of God being taught here like week after week see cuz I I spent my summer traveling to all these different places and teaching in different places and the sad thing about it was all these places they heard me preach they're like wow I've never heard anything like that before you know we don't normally hear the Word of God is being taught like straight out of the Bible just word for word here it is and and and we forget we forget that this doesn't happen every word I'm listening to the podcast con man it's the Word of God every week you know I'm just laying it out lay now laying it out we're so used to it but we forget man there's just a world out there and and and teaching the Bible is not real popular nowadays but what's what was what I really loved though was when you teach it that people are actually hungry for it they actually want it it's one worship leader after my last session at this one conference I loved his prayer he said he said God thank you so much for this weekend he said thank you for tearing down everything we believed about you and replacing it with truth wow what a great statement thank you for tearing down everything we believed about because everyone has these beliefs about God and I think he should be this way God should be this way but then when you open up the Bible says now this is what he says about himself is like wow that's the truth then that's what he says about himself and I just had the greatest summer of my life it was so so good and so fruitful but but if you guys remember when I left and that it's been three months now when I left I I really just wanted to primarily I want to know two things God's will for my life and God's will for cornerstone church remember I was preaching through Colossians and well not really preaching through I made it through one sermon and and there in Colossians 1 when it's it about how Paul prayed for the calash ensures that they would know God's will that they would understand God's were the things that God desired the things that God wanted and we talked about how everyone has a will for your life everyone wants things from you they desire this they desired that for example right now if my two-year-old had it her way she would desire for me to be at the park with her right now my six-year-old you know she has a will for my she'd love for me to be at home playing clue or you know whatever you know my ten-year-old would love for me to be taking her to the mall and buy her whatever she wants you know everyone's got a will a desire you know different people or catch me in lobby hey can you meet with me can you meet with this person you meet with that person you know this is what I'd like you to do with your time everyone has something they'd like you to do with your time your parents want you to be doing certain things your kids want you to be doing certain things your friends want you searched wants you to then you want to you know there's things you want to do right now and and to to somehow surrender all of that and say okay God doesn't matter all these other voice is what do you want and we talked about that and and I had friends of mine come up to me after service and say you know what I'm not gonna lie to you I don't want to know God's will I mean that that would scare me to know exactly where God would have me go this afternoon if he had total control and where I would live and what I would drive and eat and if I knew God's will he said I think it would freak me out so I'd rather not know and and I I think that's true for most of us so that when we get TN we go I didn't know you wanted me to do all that and I know you want me to love them that much and you know it's kind of this naivety is kind of you know this blessing and and as I thought about it I thought wow I feel some of those things and and I didn't feel right being the pastor if that's the way I thought like I was scared of God's will and so really this these these three months have been a time for me to surrender to God and say God okay anything anything I want your will I trust you okay what do you desire anywhere on this earth where do you want me to be what where do you want me to live what do you want me to give how do you want me to live I really want to do it I'll take my family wherever you lead me to and and same with the church if you want me a cornerstone then what what do you want of this church we'll do just anything just kind of surrender that and search out the Scriptures and well in regards to the church you know I mean these are very important questions I mean do you care what God wants of you or do you just want to know a few things or do you want the whole deal exactly what would you what would you want me to do and when it came to the church you know I thought back it's maybe kind of weird but as I was praying through the church I thought about something I said and I shared with you guys right before I left some Jehovah's Witnesses came to my door and and and I was thinking about that conversation that's what God brought to my mind okay Jose witness knocks on my door plays in here story and you know bad bad door to knock on and and and and he says hey have you heard of us and have you heard of what we believe and what do you think of us and I said I have heard of you and honestly I think what you're doing is awful I think is absolutely terrible what you're doing you are belittling my god you're belittling who Jesus Christ is he's my Savior this is the son of God the Bible says that that he is all the deity you know all the fullness the deity in bodily form that it's about equality with God and everything that God is Jesus is and you are going around telling people that he's just another Archangel and he goes no no we're not saying just another Archangel there's only one Archangel you know Michael is the only Archangel and I said well open your Bible turn to Daniel chapter 10 verse 13 and you know and he opens it and I could read it for me and it says Michael one of the chief Prince's I said so you're saying Jesus is Michael who was one of the chief Prince's plural so he's just like one of these angels and he goes why I never knew that and I and I said here is my point I go of course you didn't know that I go because you weren't taught that I said here's the thing I'm most concerned about I said there is no way on earth you can look me in the eye right now and tell me that you opened the Bible for yourself you studied it for yourself pray to God God help me understand the truth of this word and then you close that book and said I figured it out Jesus is really Michael one of the Archangels I know there's no way no one no one does that you can't get that from the book the reason why you believe what you believe is because someone fed it to you and someone said here here's what you're supposed to believe on and on and on and I am not telling you to listen to me I'm not gonna feed you anything right now I'm not and I'm telling you not to listen to these people that you're walking around the streets with I'm telling you open up the Bible for yourself and read it and you decide what does it say and he left the house and he said you know I learned something today I'm like great and I'm gonna pray for you now that story came to my mind because when I was trying to figure out God what is your will for the church I thought to myself okay let me be fair to that guy I told him man just open up the Bible whatever it says you would never get that you know you were fed this and I started to think wait a second what what about me what if what if I had never think about this and applies to yourself what if you had never attended a church service in your life anywhere you'd never been to church okay just imagine that right now you have never been to church you've never experienced anything like this and all you did was read the Bible okay what if all you did was read the Bible and you get to book of Acts and you start reading what the early church was like in its purest form of what God desired for the church as you read that and you go okay that's the church that's the church as a church and you've never been at your service what would you have expected to see in here when you walked in would you really expect to see a bunch of people you know sitting in seats facing forward singing a few songs hearing a message turning around going home is that what you would have gotten from this book and that's how I started thing okay so then why do we do what we do well it's cuz what we've been fed we grew up and we heard this way services are and and I kind of do Church this way because this is the way church is supposed to be done and then I read the Bible I go wait a second because when I studied the Bible it I would have expected something different if that's all I knew what I would have expected you know based upon you know the book of Acts and the being in the church I would have expected to see a bunch of people that totally loved each other that's what I would expect I would expect that this place is buzzing with interaction and people caring for one another's needs if I just read the Bible you know Acts chapter 2 verse 42 when it talks about their early church and how thousands were being added to the number it says in verse 42 they devoted themselves to the Apostles teaching I'm not saying this is wrong because there is a sense in which we need to vote ourselves a teaching to the fellowship they devoted themselves to interacting with one another to the breaking of bread you know Communion and taking the elements and remembering the body and blood of Christ not just in church but they were doing it from house to house they would they would break brennick oh yeah yeah we got to remember Jesus and he's everything to us they were so centered around this and they were devoted to prayer and it says and that everyone was filled with awe and and and many wonders and miraculous signs were done by the apostles all the believers were together and had everything in common selling their possessions and goods they gave to anyone as he had need everyday they continued to meet together in the temple courts they broke bread in their homes ate together with gladden sincere hearts praising God and in joy the favor of all the people and the Lord added to their number daily those who were being saved he turned over to chapter 4 verse 32 it says all the believers were one in heart and mind no one claimed that any of his possessions was his own but they shared everything they had with great power the Apostles continued to testify to the resurrection of the Lord Jesus and much grace was upon them all there were no needy persons among them for from time to time those who owned lands or houses sold them brought the money from the sales and put it at the Apostles feet and it was distributed to anyone as he had need so what would I expect if all I knew was the Bible and go wow I'm gonna go visit a church what would I expect when I walk in I'd expect people to actually care about I mean so care about one another it's like hey what's mine is yours and I actually got this property you know out an Idaho yeah I could sell that and and then and give it to you because seems like your need and and and there would be this interaction of manna I don't care about my stuff if you can use it for the kingdom bed and I can does do it because all we care about is this gospel all we care about is the fact that I found God so my stuff who cares about it it doesn't matter I'd expect to walk in a room where there were no needs that there were no needy people in to walk in and go I wonder what that looks like to walk in and no one be needy because everyone's taking care of each other's needs see that's not cornerstone there's needy people in here why because they're lined up to meet with me and I can't meet with them all you know when it's this church's job to meet with one another and and meet one's one another's needs and if we lift that out I thought wow that's what I would have pictured walking into a church and we've done a lot of great things but this whole idea of you know another thing I read I read this thing called the Epistle to diognetus it was just a letter from one of the early church fathers written about 140 158 and and it was it was written as this letter to prove that Christianity was real now when we try to convince someone of our faith that Christianity is real we tell him about prophecies we lay out archaeology we lay out the history we we explain the authenticity of Scripture we throw out a bunch of facts we can make him a book like the case for Christ or evidence the demands of verdict or something along those lines let me prove to you this is true what this letter this letter didn't have any of the prophecy in it when he was trying to prove that Jesus Christ rose from the grave the whole letter was about of course he did look at the church how can you explain the church look at this group of people look at the way they give to each other look at the way they interact with one another how could this miraculous gathering be taking place if Jesus Christ and rise from the grave the proof that Jesus rose from the grave was the interaction of the church now could you do that today you're trying to convince your friend to believe in Jesus well of course look at the church could you point to any Church as proof that Jesus was the son of God I mean let's face it the church is usually used as proof that he didn't come the church is used for the other side how could what you're saying be true I know my neighbor who goes to your church I know the hypocrisy of his or her life the church can't be true I've been with those people I know the way they are Sunday I know the way there are the rest of the way the church is used against Christianity and and then our only hope is well maybe if we can find a speaker or a musician or someone you know they can help lead them to the lorentz like note that the church was supposed to be the evidence and so as I looked at that and the fellowship and the love we're supposed to happen here I came to this conclusion okay we've existed as a church for twelve and a half years now let me preface it by this Jesus says I can summarize this all for you pretty easily I can summarize this whole book all the law the prophets with two commands right love the Lord your God with all your heart soul mind and love your neighbor as yourself you get that down you got it okay you don't have to worry about sinning because you can't love your neighbor and sin against them at the same time you can't love God and sin at the same time so as long as you love God and love your neighbor you're great look down with all your heart soul and mind love your neighbor yourself so here's the deal as I pray about this I believe that over the last 12 and 1/2 years I believe cornerstone church has done a good job at teaching people to love God with all their heart soul in mind we said our mission statement that we want to present to this this community in accurate we want to give every individual in our community an accurate picture of God I believe we've done that you know when we teach the Word of God here's what he says about himself here's what the Bible says now what I'd like him to be here's what he says about himself here's an accurate picture of God and this is to help develop those who believe and to fully devoted followers of Jesus teaching people to be completely devoted to him I believe we've taught people to love God and I know some of you you you're in love with God in love with Jesus some of you wake up at 4 o'clock in the morning you know and you start praying to him and reading from his word singing to him some of you you know I you've given up so much you're just in love with him but it's that second half love your neighbor as yourself where I go that's not too good I believe if there's a clear obvious area we've just failed in love your neighbor as yourself and before you write a no go no that's not true I love someone you know just just hear me OK love your neighbor as yourself honestly there's times when I I look at that I go I don't even know where to start think about that verse the second greatest commandment love your neighbor as yourself where do we even start as a church when honestly you know a lot of you in this room you don't even want to talk to the person next to you much less love them as much as you love yourself and so I haven't even made this a goal you know because it's just it almost seems impossible in our day and age or something and and some of it are there my own issues too I mean when I go to church honestly I like being alone I like hanging out with myself you know just go to church I mean when I visited church I want to be anonymous you know I mean I my personality is more the one where I'd love to sit in the back and just kind of have my own little spot no one talked to me okay I'll shake your hand or in greeting time but okay that's it you know don't talk to me and definitely don't hug me just just like give me give me a little time to myself and talk to God meditate on his word I'll praise God and go home you know and and so then you you read this as love your neighbor as yourself and the early church was all about interaction there wasn't so much of this one guy talk everyone listen there was certainly some of that and they devoted themselves to the Apostles teaching but sometimes that's all churches to us and that that needs to change I mean I try to think even for me personally have I ever really made that my goal I've made love my goal I've prayed to God and said god help me to love like I can look around I go you know I love some of you in here you know I Rob Hagin I go I can honestly say you know I love Rob Hagin I do but love him as myself do I love him as much as I love myself do I care about his kids as much as I care about my kids do I care about his well-being and his marriage as much as I care about my marriage his house as much as my house see the early church they did they love their neighbor as themselves that's why it's like well you could use this stuff more and I could use this stuff I mean that that's what I see that's what I've read it's like well yeah yeah what's mine is yours nothing nothing's mine it's all us word is all together on this mission and we love each other as ourselves that's huge and and I I just believe that that needs to be our goal and needs to be something we as a church this are saying over and over and over and over and over and over and over why move on from this one other lesson do we need to teach until we figured out love your neighbor as yourself and we've made that a real goal in here but that means changes changes in the way that we do things and I know that just me saying that make some of you cringe because you want everything to stay the same the same guy up there speaking every week same worship leaders same size Church don't let it get too big don't move don't do this I mean you move to Simi Valley because you don't like change right let me just get in to see me where I know everyone in the town some of you guys grew up here you went to high school here you're you're still here you're not leaving here because you know everything's the same and and some of you you know it's really good even get in one of those gated communities then you know who's gonna go in and out those gates and not just some random different person is gonna get into your neighborhood you know no poor people no bad people it's safe it's gonna be the same we like the same and what my same scene yes is in the same seat every weekend because you like that you know and you want everything to be the same you want the same kids you know that I just want these two I just want them to go to the same school have the same friends and on and on I want to keep the same job and I want everyone to keep working the same job and you know and I want that same income and when I when I when I retire I hope I can keep the same standard of living you know new you you want don't you sometimes wish your kids would stay the same age like oh if I could just lock them in that age and just everything stays the same and and what I do when you get older I don't get a bunch of plastic surgeries I don't look the same as I did when I was 30 I don't want my face changing or any other part of my body changing I want to get everything the same same same same same and so when someone brings about change and go oh this thing could just completely you know turn around we're gonna come back from the men's retreat and use some leadership to the men and this this thing's gonna just just turn upside down you go home don't change it don't change this and yet I go you know when God saved you did he save you so that you could be the same what was the point in saving you he wanted you to change you got a change change is biblical what would the first command changed repent and be baptized change change every day should change every sermon of mine should change this isn't sound like 10 o'clock I hope I hopefully I'm godly ER than I was a 10 uh you know that's why God saved me I want to keep mature and keep changing and hopefully I'm not the same person I was last year see it drives me crazy when when the day looks so much like yesterday wow this feels kind of the same same off the same screen same people same job same and then the next day is gonna look just like today doesn't that drive you crazy cuz God didn't make you for monotony he didn't save you so that everything would remain the same but that he would make all things new and I remember you know a great addition at this one time I speak over to Zeus a Pacific quite often you know at the University for the chapel's I did a lot of Christian colleges but and as you said there's this one gal who helps with worship and man it seemed like every time she was up there she got more and more fired up and I remember after service one time I just go okay what's your deal you you amazed me like you really are so into it and more into it than last time I'll never forget what she said to me she goes you know she goes it's because I pray and I say to God God I don't want a repeat of last week's Chapel because you are not a duplicator you're a creator she goes my God is a creator so every time I get on that stage I say God creates thing noob and me make me a new person have me worship and experience you like never before and I love that that's it that that's why it's so frustrating when everything remains it seems like God Destin's us for change and I believe as a church it's time to go you know what here's the Bible here's us we need to change we need to I don't care if no one's done it before I don't care if you know half the people or three fours and 9/10 leave it's like well that's what the Bible says then what are we doing you know if fellowship doesn't take place then church isn't really taking place and I just ride the church ever ever meet together without interaction and without us caring for one another so I so much I want to say but there's no time I'm gonna you know hit the guys and the men's retreats for the next couple weekends and and just saying you know and expect some changes and but but as I was praying and I go okay that's that's God's will for the church I really believe that based upon Scripture God what what about me what do you want for me and and you know what the same thing I I don't believe my goal has changed over the last five years or so if you cut me open I have one goal I really do my goal is that one day I'd I stand before God and I hear him say well done that's it cut me wide open and find out what is he all about he is all about wanting to hear those two words out of the mouth of God so badly that he'll do anything for it it's about just at the end of my life I won't care if people like me if I'm popular or there's a lot of things I just won't care about when I stand before God what I I'm gonna care about is that he goes well done you know you had that short time there on the earth and you did what I wanted you to do you didn't do what everyone else wanted you to do or what you wanna do you did what I want to do well done that's where I was leading you that's what I wanted that's all I care about and so it's just killing before God I ain't going yeah you know what that is all I care about so tell me what do you want show me what you want and and here's what I did okay I last week you know is everything's winding down and I've been away for three months I'm going okay I gotta come to some decisions here I've experienced so much I've got so many opportunities and there's so much need out in the world what do you want of me and so I go to the beach right cuz isn't that where you're supposed to find yourself so I go to the beach and over to Zuma you know and I got a little Starbucks across the street from Zuma and I got a little coffee old grande you know and a little muffin and I got my little towel you know and I head across the street you know it's really in the morning no one's around - sitting there watching sunrise you know when as I'm all cuddled up you know and and got my coffee on my muffin sing on my towel I look out in the ocean and just kind of go God Who am I you know what is the purpose of my life right and then just sound beautiful and so I'm just doing that and and I'm not one to hear voices or anything like that but ya know there's some times in your life just really believe God's saying something to you and I it was just one of those moments as I'm sitting there sipping my coffee drinking mine or eating Mike muffin sitting on my towel looking at the ocean I just I just felt like God was looking down and going that's really cute Francis oh this is cute look at you with your little blankie in your hair coffee and just gone to you what is the purpose of my life cute he goes meanwhile there are millions of people who are suffering right now wondering if they're even going to live through the day okay so as you sit there on the nice little coast nice little seashore wondering what is the purpose in my life there are millions of people just wondering am I gonna live through this day there are mothers holding their babies going man I cannot find food anywhere is my baby gonna live through the day what do you think of my will is for your life what do you think the purpose would be France is everything you know about me Almighty God everything you learn in the scriptures about me what do I care about man why why what did the prophets say why were they so angry at the people why was i angry because they were complacent they didn't care about those who are suffering they you know the strongest language was reserved for those who were complacent for those who are suffering man I mean yeah you know we think of no what about the sexual sins you know Sodom Sodom why was thought I'm destroyed it's wickedness right what was his weakness about homosexuality yeah probably some of that but what does he's equal say in Ezekiel 16:49 it says this was the sin of your sister Sodom she was arrogant overfed and unconcerned you know what really ticked me off about that city they were so arrogant and they were eating themselves to death and they didn't care they're just unconcerned you know and you read Amos you know chapter 6 verse 1 even woe to you who were comfortable complacent as you lay there in your couches and you played music to one another and you're eating and on and on and on woe to you and and and and you know you start reading and Isaiah and do you know how much I don't know if God his heart is is more angry toward anything else than those who don't care I don't love other people now close your eyes to the needy they're just shut their ears to their cry then I start thinking New Testament what about the New Testament what are the scariest thing what are the scariest passages in the New Testament ci my first one that came to my mind outside of Revelation when he just destroys everything is uh is Matthew 25 Matthew 25 what a scary passage when people say well you know hell is an eternal I could turn in Matthew 25 Matthew 25 God looks at this whole group of people but is the sheep and go judgment and he says depart from me into this eternal punishment an eternal punishment and he go WOW God on Judgment Day is he's gonna look at a bunch of people and say go to eternal punishment and then it says in Matthew 25 that people say but why and what is God's response God's response is you're going there because I was hungry and you didn't feed me I was thirsty you didn't give me anything to drink I was naked you didn't clothed me and the people were like wait what are you talking about I never saw you hungry and and and God says to them whatever you did not do for the least of these you did not do for me so go depart from me that's scary but think you think what else what other graphic cuz that thought okay is there a more scary passage and to me I always go back to that that one scene where that one guy's just burning up and saying would someone just dip their finger and some water and just give me one dab of water on my tongue because I am burning up down here but you ever stop and consider what that story was about Lazarus and the rich man do you realize that that it was about this rich man what all the stuff and has he's eaten everything else is just beggar you know what his door just hoping for some scraps and so when life was over it got flip-flopped and the one who had everything now suddenly was suffering and the one who was suffering now suddenly was there at Abraham's bosom and everything was good he was in paradise and you look at these passages and it would almost if that's all you've read you'd think I was saying that our salvation is based upon our care for the poor now those who know the Bible know that you know what no our salvation is we're saved by grace through faith but yet he's able to use these examples because he's explained that look a true Christian a true believer is going to be marked by his compassion for the poor in fact if you know you know we all know John 3:16 right do you know first John 3:16 first John 3:16 I I think this this this really gives you the heart of it all and first John 3:16 it says this this is how we know what love is Jesus Christ lay down his life for us and we ought to lay down our lives for our brothers if anyone has material possessions and sees his brother in need but has no pity on him how can the love of God be in him he's if you see someone in need you see a brother in need especially and and you have no pity on him you you have stuff and they don't but you don't pity them you don't do anything for them because how could the love of Christ be in you how could you really eat you can't really be a Christian because in verse 16 the verse of 4 he says we know love how he says through Christ that Christ laid down his life for us and he says therefore we ought to lay down our lives for our brothers see it's this whole idea of why are you here you want to be a Christian you want to follow Christ and he's saying what was Christ's example of love he laid down his life you've got Christ you've got God on his throne think about this in heaven everyone's worshipping him life is great angels screaming all the holy holy bowing down before this God equality with God and yet the Bible says he didn't consider that something to be held on to but instead of holding on to that he lowered himself he emptied himself he humbled him he left that he laid down his position there to come down on earth to take the form of a man not just the form of a man he lowered himself even more and took the form of a servant wash people's feet not just as servant but a servant that people would spit on and beat up and and not just a Burton a servant of people would spit on a beat up but eventually they would nail him to a cross he left that lay down his life and gave everything to where he's nailed on a cross and still praying for the people God forgive them that's the example that we have to follow a person laying down his life for us why why did he do that because he loved you because he saw that you and I God and heaven saw that we were helpless I can't save myself I've already ruined my life I've already done things that are offensive to God that means at the end of my life I'm gonna be punished by him there's nothing I can do to change that and then God says but I can change that I'll come down I'll take the punishment on the cross for you he saw me as helpless and he came down he made me rich and he says now if you are a Christian you do the same thing for your brothers he goes and in fact if you see someone in need and you have stuff and you don't pity them then you don't have the love of Christ in you you might still love people everyone loves a little bit but the love of Christ is a love that lays down for others I want to show you a couple pictures and I just want to see what you think when you see these pictures what what do you feel when you see that that's now that's someone's kid you know do you think of that kid is do you think that kid is as valuable as your kid I mean really I mean you hear that baby crying in our own room you know is this baby as precious is that one going to go to the next one what do you what do you think when you see that you go oh but I had a rough week too oh but I have financial needs I where we're just scraping by it's amazing when you care for the poor house suddenly your problems go away don't they you go I had a pretty good week the next one this one's interesting this last one I'll show you this this actually was a this was an older photo it's a this is a Pulitzer Prize winning photo of this little girl that's about to die and that voltage is waiting and the photographer who took that got so depressed afterwards that he killed himself you know it's just what what do these do to you when you go okay here I am in America got all this going on and and you know everything about God and how he's a father to the fatherless a defender of widows you know and his true religion is to care for the widows and orphans does don't you just go okay what am I doing here then well what is my life supposed to be about and if I were supposed to be a picture of Christ and Christ men you talk about lowering I mean for me to sell everything and give to them that that doesn't even compare to what Christ did for us in humbling himself and it's like well I'm supposed to be like Christ every 3.6 seconds someone dies because of hunger boom someone just died three someone else just died two three another person just died two three little kid just died two three infant just died two three mom just died every three seconds every 3.6 seconds and every one of those people every snap of the finger that was a a life that's just as valuable as mine just as valuable and every soul is just as valuable as my soul and there's this world out there that we need to think about and sometimes we get in the church and it's all about us and like well I didn't quite like I didn't quite like that it's like you know what we you know what have needs I mean if we really looked out there we'd realize and if we really gave our lives to people who have nothing man you this isn't a bummer thing I'm talking about it really makes your life so wonderful you just realize the blessing you have I'm gonna have Jim and my wife come out and and they're she's gonna sing a song and I want you to listen to the words of this song and then we're gonna flash up some pictures on the screens some of the pictures that some of you guys took on our mission trips to different places not these now these kids aren't as intense as the other one some of them weren't even starving you know aren't even hungry you know but I just want you to be aware of the world out there and the song is written from the perspective of a mother overseas just trying to help her family out and it's just a plea for us to just think about them and not think about ourselves so much but to love them as ourselves so listen to the words of this song and look at these pictures [Music] you can know it's been a while since anybody I love to laugh and my family also means the world so as you choose what you wear remember I fight to see you as you decide where we it's my [Music] think of let me leave keep on [Music] Georgiou [Music] you I'm sure that you [Music] you have a laugh I understand God is the last used to enjoy with you you heard [Music] the sessions never shield a life as you consider your life would you think about is you years maybe your [Music] [Applause] [Music] I fight to say [Music] it's much [Music] [Music] keep [Music] [Music] a lot of times we would just end service here and go think about him you know we leave convicted and sad and yet the Bible says in James that it really doesn't help anyone if you just say gosh I wish they were fed I wish they were warned it's like it's your actions that heal me like that song says it's when we do something that lives actually change and I was thinking you know as I was praying about this I go Lord why is it that sometimes we'll give to the poor and then we'll just forget about him for a long time and we'll get wrapped up in our own lives again and all I think about is me and my kids me and my family and I realized well a lot of it is because come home close the door and who's there it's me and my family walk down the hallway what do I have pictures of me and my family when I go in the office look on
