All right. Welcome, welcome to the Biblos Network.

We're glad that you have decided to join in with us this

wonderful January 6th, 2022. I guess this is the first Biblos of the new year, if I'm not

mistaken. So we're glad that you have decided to join in with us today. God's doing great things.

I know he's doing them where you are.

He certainly is here where we are.

And we're thankful for that.

There's a lot to talk about.

There's a lot that's happening, a lot that's taking place around the world.

Crazy things happening politically.

Great things happening in the kingdom of God.

Kings come. Kings go. The heart of the king is in the hand of the Lord to turn whithersoever.

He will. God will keep it all in control. God's going to work it all out and work all things according to the counsel of his own will.

So the key is to keep your eyes on the kingdom, keep your eyes on Jesus, men are going to do what they're going to do, do the best you can in this world, support as best you can, and trust in God. God's got a plan.

And it's been working for a long time.

Believe it or not, things are better than they ever have been. There was a time when infant mortality was insane and people's life expectancy was 30 years of age, 40 years of age.

You were a senior citizen at 50 years of age.

There was a time in human history when there were child brides that were 13, 14 years of age and younger.

Just, we think we've got it bad now.

We're actually a very civilized people,

and I know we have our difficulties, and there immigration problems and there's political intrigue and all kind of crazy stuff that's happening. But don't listen to the doomsayers and the naysayers. God's kingdom is growing. It is going up. It is a great time to be serving God. So I'm going to say that and I'm going to trumpet that because it is the truth.

It's a good time to be alive.
