If you didn't bring a Bible with you this morning, hold up your hand, and we have extra Bibles.

We'd be glad to let you use one.

Hold up your hand if you didn't bring a Bible.

And turn to John, the 14th chapter.

We'll look at two places.

First John 2.

We'll actually look at that first, first John 2, and then go over to

John 14. First epistle of John, chapter 2, and then gospel account of John, chapter 14.

We're blessed.

So blessed.

Wonderful thing.

You know, not too many days ago, you and I didn't know each other.

Right?

A lot of us were in different states, geographically and otherwise.

And the Lord has delivered us, healed us, prospered us, given us each other, and so many good times of fellowship, right?

And so many good things, answering our questions and showing us what to do and directing us so that our

life will not have been in vain.

Because it will be over in just a few more breaths.

This is, I suppose, the briefest thing we'll ever do.

What we're doing right now is, I suppose, the briefest thing, shortest thing will ever do.

Now, that's all we know.

It's all we've experienced.
