Well, today we're coming around this idea of anxiety again, and as we do that, I just

want to say again, last week we kind of laid the runway for this, but I just want to say

know what's coming and it can come in a pretty powerful way.

My story is like some of your stories and unlike others of your stories, but my story

to know that today, that's why we're rooting our faith in Jesus.
