Praise you, Lord. Thank you, Lord. Would you join me as we bow our heads and pray. Lord, we thank you for this time of worship, Lord, as it serves as a reminder of who you are, Lord, in our lives and what you've done for us, Lord. And Lord, we thank you so much for this time that we can gather together and lift our voices up in song to you, Lord.

Would you bless our time as we get into the Word?

Woo!

Lord, we're talking about some things this morning, Lord.

So would you just prepare our hearts and let us receive, Lord, that we would soak it in,

that your word would just fill us, Lord, that we would soak it in, that your word would just fill us,

that we would be changed, Lord, and more like you because of it, Lord.

So, Lord, would you bless Pastor Mack, give him the strength and courage to continue to do your
