This is the greatest hour to follow Jesus.

So I do feel like I have a word from the Lord for you guys. For us as a people, I think I need this word.

I think we all need it. And I didn't really tell Michael much about what I felt to talk about.

But when he was just up here saying, I feel like this is going to be something that's going to help us just to continue to be in God's

presence. That's right on the money. And all that God has done tonight, I keep hearing everyone

saying, I'm thankful, I'm thankful, and that's what God woke me up with. He always does that to me.

I love it, because I never know what I'm supposed to speak about, and I'll get things in the night a lot of the

times, and I'll wake up and write them down. And he said, teach them about being thankful.

We need to live a life of gratitude and thankfulness. We really do, like us as a body, us as a people,

that God has done for us so he can bless us with more because he wants to bless his children.

He really does. He wants to bless us. He wants to pour out more on us and lavish us with more

than we could ever imagine. And sometimes when we hear that,

we get that twisted a little bit and think, it's all about money. I'm not even talking about

money. I'm just talking about God's goodness, just to live a blessed life of just peace and happiness

and fruitfulness. And yeah, I want you to be blessed financially too. I don't want you to have lack.

I don't feel like that's what God has for us.

So, but it's just so much more than money. It's so much more than possessions. It's just a life of having enough.

And that's what God wants for us. And I have to tell you, I mean, I don't feel like I was always the most grateful person. It's something

that I still have to work at every now and then. I could be the kind of person that sees the

glass half empty. That's totally me. Yeah, Michael would be the other way around. So when I met Michael, he would always say little

things, like, just have a heart of gratitude, always be thankful. And that's something I've constantly
