God bless you. Hey, if you haven't got the communion elements, you might want to come up at this time and grab them and then take them back to your seat at the conclusion of the Bible study. We're going to partake together. We want to welcome those of you that are joining us online. We're so glad that you are. This would also be a good time for you to get the elements as well, if you

want to partake with us at the end. Really looking forward to what the Lord has for us tonight.

Good to be back, by the way. I missed you. Did you miss me? Ah, you're just saying that.

All right.

Jeremiah chapter 12 tonight.

Making our way through the Bible book by book, chapter by chapter, verse by verse.

Taking our time, no hurry, no worry.

So why don't we pray?

We'll ask God to bless our time together in His Word, if you would please join with me.

Father Nevin, thank you so much. Lord, I really appreciate it what Capono

prayed because it's not just that, but sometimes I think we just take so much for granted.

And we take you for granted. Lord, we take your goodness for granted. You're

so good, Lord. And you love us so much. Your love for us is just too high for our understanding.

Lord, tonight we want to devote, commit our time to you. We want to open our

hearts to you. We want to give you our undivided attention. We treasure this time that we have on Thursday nights where we can come

to this place and put everything aside, all the busyness and stress and pressure and cares

and affairs, Lord.

We just want to focus, but we need the Holy Spirit to help us focus. We want to concentrate and with our minds just be able to take in what it is that you have for us tonight

and not just our minds but our hearts.

So Lord, would you bless our time together? We pray in Jesus' name. Amen and amen. All right.

Well, I have to confess that this is yet another chapter that I've really

been looking forward to.
