Good morning everyone and welcome back to another mornings with the Masters.

We're to vote ourselves to the Lord daily with you.

It's just me today, folks, a sweet tea is resting, much deserved, much needed rest.

A few housekeeping items before we jump in. Number one, tomorrow

we're going to start on a fun holy week devotional as we prepare our hearts and minds to like

actually like realize what Jesus has done for us.

I also think that this devotional today will kind of set the tone for that which is

exciting. But secondly I just wanted to say thanks for all the love on that podcast with Joe.

The other day, is a special guest, Joe, Christian Guy, Joe Navarro.

Yeah, I wasn't sure how you guys would receive having like a special guest on a podcast but you guys were so kind and I really really appreciate that and so moving forward as Tori gets ready for maternity leave I will absolutely do my best to get as many guests as possible to carry some of the weight as

your Tory does such a fantastic job encouraging you all. That way you all are still getting that, you know, same level of devotional and

encouragement that you've come to know over the past several years.

So I will do my best, of course it just takes a little bit more logistically to plan for people to be on the pod but then also with our editor to edit them all and all the stuff and so I will do my best but they may just be kind of peppered in like maybe a few a week or something like that.

So just appreciate you guys with all your grace and love in this season.

I'll just share one last thing before I jump into the devotional.

Last baby, Micah. I'll just share one last thing before I jump into the devotion.

Last baby, Micah, Tory did not take a maternity leave and that was probably my fault.

We weren't in a situation for that.

It was also the busiest time of our work.

The busiest season for us in work is October, November, December.

And Micah was born mid-November.

And it was just one of those things where we did have help and she did have moments of rest, but it was just we weren't prepared for it at all.
