Day 145 of Heart Dive 365. I'm your Bible study friend Kanoi. Welcome to the Heart Dive podcast.

Happy Saturday, friends. If you're studying with us in real time, I am getting some rest today because I'm actually filming this on Friday.

Holly's still on vacation. And so we are just glad that you are here. We are glad that we have a video on Saturday, and I'll be back tomorrow again, so hang tight on Sunday as I try to get back into the swing of things. And Heartdive BSFs, if you could please hit that roll call button, that's the thumbs up button, letting us know that you're here with us. Also, making sure you're subscribed to the channel is extremely helpful and supportive of the channel. Of course, commenting along the way is helpful as well. It lets YouTube know that we are active here, that people are actually getting some value out of these videos. So we would be grateful if you could be a part of this community. And we really are helping one another out. I'm watching the conversations, and it's just been wonderful.

I love being able to get in there and just pray over people. I don't always get to comment back, but just know that I see your hearts. And I just love the community that is being built here. It's amazing to be able to be connected with other brothers and sisters across the world. Speaking of which, if you're new here,

please let us know what part of the world you are in

and how you found this Bible study.

Make sure to check out the show notes or description box. And you can also go to our website, heartdive.org, where you can find other resources. If you have any questions, we've got a frequently asked question section there. But a lot of those answers can be found in the description box. Otherwise, we're going to go ahead and pray and get into God's Word. Heavenly Father, we thank you for this day. We thank you for you being our God, our good father, our friend, our provider, our defender, our protector. You are the great I am, everything that we need every single day. Forgive us of our sins, Lord. Anything that we've done to grieve your heart,

to hurt somebody else, where we've stepped over the line, where we have stopped short,

or where we've simply done nothing when we were supposed to. Forgive us, Lord. Help us to know

what those things are so we are not unaware. We want to be sensitive to your Holy Spirit. We want to be

sensitive to caring for others. And so that is

one of the ways that we know we can do so is just being aware of what we are doing and the impact

that we are having upon others. Help us to also forgive other people who have hurt us because that's a

huge part of your character is your forgiveness, your mercy, and your grace. And we want to be able to encompass that. And as we open up your word today, we just ask Holy Spirit that you'll have your way in our hearts, that you will allow the words that we need to see to be heard. I pray that you will plant seeds. I pray that you will change things in us that need to be changed. I pray that you will encourage us where we need to be

encouraged. And I just pray that you will guide us, give us wisdom and discernment, strengthen us today, Lord. Even if it's in a reading that we don't quite grasp or understand, we know you can still speak through it. And so we are open for it. We are here for it. So we move out of the way, make room for you.

I pray that you will speak through me.

Don't let it be my words, God, but yours.

And I just pray,

hope. We are here for it. So we move out of the way, make room for you. I pray that you will speak through me.

Don't let it be my words, God, but yours. And I just pray, Holy Spirit, that you will move through the

rooms or wherever everybody is at today. Thank you for bringing us here. Thank you for this divine

appointment. It is not by mistake that we are here, whether we are, quote, on time, or we are a few days behind or even
