Where can I go from your spirit? Where can I flee from your presence?

If I go up to the heavens, you are there.

If I make my bed in the depths, you are there.

If I rise on the wings of the dawn, if I settle on the far side of the sea,

even there your hand will guide me.

Your right hand will hold me fast.

If I say, surely darkness will hide me and the light become night around me,

even the darkness will not be dark to you. The night will shine like the day, for darkness

is as light to you. This is the word of the Lord.

Thanks to be to God. Thanks to be the God.

Hey friends, hello.

How are you?

Good.

Me too.

Thank you for asking.

This is a very special, very special moment for me for a lot of reasons that I don't want to take the time to explain because I want to be wise with my time, but I just want to say it's an immense honor, and I'm really humbled to get to contribute to this gathering, this annual gathering of our church community at Bridgetown.

And, you know, this has been a meaningful annual rhythm for me personally over the years.

And this church community has been, I mean, the word gift

doesn't even really get across what I'm trying to say,

a gift to every member of my family in ways that we're still discovering.

And so it's very special and meaningful to me personally

to be able to contribute to this. Just cheers to that.
