Would you turn with me this morning to the book of Hebrews and the 12th chapter, Hebrews 12?

We've been ministering for some weeks now on the subject of the faith of Jesus.

And this is our text, so let's look at it today and continue on

Hebrews 12 1

says wherefore seeing we are compassed about was so great a cloud of witnesses

my dad's a part of that cloud this morning

I was thinking about it.

He so loved his mom and his dad.

And my grandfather's family, the Moore family, a lot of uncles and aunts.

They had large family.

And just a bunch of robust life loving people.

And most of them already gone and, you know, not too long after Dad went home, I thought,

you know, they probably all met him.

Uncle Roscoe and Uncle Coyt and Ain't Odessa

and Uncle Rufus and Uncle Gordon

and Molina and Paul Quinnon and

Yeah I'm from the South.

And glad about it.

Yeah, we know how to do it.

And, you know, I mean, we had some big times down here.

But it wouldn't hold a candle to what we're going to have up there.

So you have the same?
