Amen. Hello and welcome to Amen podcast. I'm look at one of your hosts. Today we are finishing our

four part series on relationships by looking at the Book of Philemon. We'll be looking at versus

17 through 25 today. So Alex, let us know what you're preaching about. Yesterday everyone

to the beach and there was a lady putting on her snorkel gear about to get into some really heavy

water big waves and I was thinking she's going to get in trouble and sure enough minutes later

she's spinning around on her back face up towards the sun and she's drowning and in steep water.

And she cannot get up because the short break keeps pushing her back down and so she'll get

try to get up fall down spin around on her back she can't get up her friend tried to help

her friend was as strong enough to pick her up and so I run over pick her up and she looks at me

with a deep sigh and says oh Jesus and I looked at her and I said no my name's Alex but I do

worship the Lord and put a big smile on her face and she was really happy to know that someone

was there to help her. We must bring Jesus into our relationships. When we do it brings a sigh

of relief to both parties involved because here is someone stronger than me able to lift me out

of the high water that I've gotten myself into with the drama of these relationships.

Have you brought Jesus into this? I mean I know you feel maybe like you are because the last three

episodes we've talked about bringing him in but ending this last part of the series what we're

focusing on is seeing how Jesus is in every single part of their relationship when we invite him in.

Once he's in there you have nothing to worry about. I mean nothing.

It's gonna all work out take a deep breath see that his grace is with you right now in this

moment there's past grace there's future grace but there's present grace and when we invite him

in as our older brother saying come in because I have this connection with you I'm with you

you're with me bring in your wisdom bring in your power bring in your might into this
