Day 222 of Heart Dipe 365.

I'm your Bible study friend Kanoi.

Welcome to the Heart Dive podcast.

Happy Sunday, friends, if you're studying with us in real time, welcome back to Bible study.

Thank you for your patience and waiting for today's lesson to come out.

Holly should be releasing today as well, and then we will hopefully be back on regularly scheduled programming. She's done with vacation. My family leaves tomorrow, so God willing, and by his grace, we will get things back together once again for you. Some of you may be saying, what in the world are you talking about? Because this may be the first time you're visiting with us. Well, we're just really glad that you're here. We've been reading through the Bible

pretty much every single day since January 1st, 2023. We read through the whole Bible last year.

We're doing it again this year. And our goal really is not to check off boxes and not to be able to

say, I read the Bible twice. It is to grow in our knowledge, to understand who God is,

what word he spoke, the purpose of it, and how it applies to us today and also for our future.

What was once seen as a daunting task to try to read through the Bible and to understand it is now

becoming a little bit more attainable for most people whenever we do this together.

And so I'm just grateful for all of you guys and for joining us in this mission to do that, to get other people involved. And so if you want to continue to partner with us in that, if you could just hit that like button, that's just one way of saying, you know what? I think that we are doing a good thing here, and I've seen the change in my life. And so I want others to be able to be able to unveil what God is speaking through His Word, and we think

this ministry is helping to do that. We would greatly appreciate it. And subscribing to the

channel is also very helpful, because all it does is it tells YouTube, you know what? We agree

with what this channel is pushing out as good content. We are consuming it and therefore we're going to support it by hitting that like button. If you want more information about what we do here, you can always check out the show notes, the description box or our website, heartdive.org. Many of your questions can be answered right there. But always feel free to leave any questions or comments in the comment section, and hopefully

somebody will be able to help you out to answer those questions. Otherwise, I got to get to church,

so let's go ahead and jump in. Let's pray first. We love you, Lord. We love you so much, and thank you for

being our God Almighty. I pray that we never lose sight of who you are, never diminish your character in any way, never misrepresent you in any way. Please forgive us for our sins, Lord. I just pray that you will cleanse our hearts right now. If anybody's coming here with any grief or anxiety, worry, anything that's weighing on them, Lord, I pray that you will free them up because your desire for us is to live freely. And so I just pray that those

burdens will be taken from us. Jesus, thank you that you provided an opportunity for us to be able to

cast our cares upon you and give you all of those things. And so we do that today. We just lay them down

because sometimes we hold so tightly to those things. But you're saying, let it go, give it to me,
