Chad, we are in Isaiah chapter 40.

We got through the first eight verses.

I mean, we got through more than that.

We got through an entire other chapter that was only eight verses long.

But we did get through it.

But we stopped at 40 verse 8. And, you know, we had a little

excursion John the Baptist because, you know, the first part of Isaiah 40 is about John

the Baptist. I mean, it's telling you that he's coming at some point. And it tells you what

kind of words he's going to be saying.

And we ended with this great line where, you know, it says, hey, you and me, we're a little

bit like the grass here today, gone tomorrow.

We're not going to last forever.
