Welcome to the Jesus Image podcast.

Hey family, it is good to be back here. I have missed you.

Thank you. Thank you. I really have. I have missed you. I've been so excited. I want to thank Pastor Michael and Jessica

for the privilege to get to hang out with you guys this morning, get to be here, and to really just

I'm so blessed this morning, just in worship, walking in here, and just getting to,

to be a part, like, be in this family. I claim y'all. To be in this family, right? The family of God god we have a saying in our house find your family and

you find your destiny and uh and that is that that none of us are called to walk along you're

you know we don't replace your earthly family but god gives us family gives us our tribe. You're in the tribe of Jesus

image today. Welcome. And it's in our relationships with each other. Like we don't do it all by

ourself. But the joy of this is that we get to do it together. One will put a thousand,

but two will put 10,000 to flight. And we become unstoppable. We become the body of Christ. And

we have to learn that we need each other. And the't we the bible warns us especially in the last days

don't forsake the assembling of yourselves together so much more as you see that day approaching how many

you know that day is approaching and so we need each other and j said it this way in Jeremiah chapter 10.

He said a man's way is not within himself.

Isn't that an interesting thing?

Such an interesting statement because we kind of come from a culture like I'm from Texas.

If you can't tell by my accent, I'll quit trying to be sanctified, dignified here in a minute,

and the twang will come out more. But, but in Texas, we're like independent, you know,

like, any Texans in the place? Okay, thank God they let you in Florida. All right. But we're like independent. We're like, oh, I can do it. I got this. But that's not the

kingdom. God placed you in a body as it pleased him and everybody belongs in the body or in the family of God together because we need each other.

And we were not meant to walk alone.
