SPEAKER_00: Well, thanks for joining us here online at the Orchard.
SPEAKER_00: As you heard, Aston mention in the introduction to this is that this month in July is a little bit different.
SPEAKER_00: And the reason is because typically we would preach through a series so that if you were here last week and then this week, all the messages follow a similar theme or at least they have some connections to each other.
SPEAKER_00: But in the month of July, every year at the Orchard, we do something called location pastor Sundays for the entire month.
SPEAKER_00: What that means is that at each of our locations you would hear a different message based on whatever the location pastor feels like God is speaking to them and that they would lead those specific congregations however they see fit in this season.
SPEAKER_00: And so what you may find is that this week may be very different from next week and the following weeks.
SPEAKER_00: And so if you would think of each of these messages kind of like their own, what we would say standalone messages.
SPEAKER_00: Now I say all that to say that in Live Oak, this would be the first part of a series that we are going to do, even though that series may be different than the other series at the other locations.
SPEAKER_00: And the series that we're going to do in Live Oak is built around a phrase that we see in Luke's gospel, and it's this, just as he said.
SPEAKER_00: And we'll see a little bit more in just a minute of where that comes from and why it is that we're using that particular phrase.
SPEAKER_00: But before we do, I want you to think about this.
SPEAKER_00: For most of us, if we grew up in or around the church, then we've we've heard a phrase similar to this is, hey, put your faith in Jesus, or salvation is by faith, which is in Jesus.
SPEAKER_00: The question that I have is that do we really understand what we're saying when we say that?
SPEAKER_00: Especially in the church, we can say faith a lot, but do we actually understand what it is that constitutes faith?
SPEAKER_00: And what I would say is that what you see, especially in the Gospels, is that faith in Jesus is equivalent to trusting Jesus.
SPEAKER_00: Wayne Grudum, a theologian who has written a systematic theology that's very, very long, very, very ingrained in what it says, he says faith is this.
SPEAKER_00: When he talks about saving, faith is made up really of three characteristics.
SPEAKER_00: It is knowledge, that is, that you have knowledge of a particular thing, or in this case of a person, Jesus, approval, which means that based on what I know, I believe it to be true, and trust.
SPEAKER_00: And what Wayne Grudum would say is that if you do not have all three of those characteristics, then you do not have faith.
SPEAKER_00: And really what I think happens to Grudom's point is that for many of us, when we say faith, we say, oh, we have knowledge of Jesus and we believe these things to be true about Jesus.
SPEAKER_00: But do we actually trust Jesus?
SPEAKER_00: And I think that can be difficult for us, to actually trust Jesus.
SPEAKER_00: And trust can be hard because trust means that you're putting all of your eggs in one basket.
SPEAKER_00: In this case, in the basket that is Jesus for salvation, that you would lay down everything, you would put everything aside, and that you would follow him.
SPEAKER_00: In all of our lives we've been taught, well, don't do that.
SPEAKER_00: You need to have reservations, you need to have emergency funds, you don't need to put all of your eggs in one basket.
SPEAKER_00: And yet, when it comes to trusting Jesus, it literally is laying everything else aside.
SPEAKER_00: And so if faith really is not just knowing about Jesus and believing those things to be true, but trusting in Jesus, what does it actually look like to trust Jesus?
SPEAKER_00: I think it's clear in the New Testament that trust is actionable.
SPEAKER_00: That's why James writes, and he says, that faith without works is dead.
SPEAKER_00: What he means is that your faith will be made known by your works.
SPEAKER_00: If you don't have the works to accompany what you say you believe, then your works will reveal that you don't actually believe those things to be true, that it will betray your trust, that you say the right things, and yet you do not fully trust Jesus in a way that produces action in your life.
SPEAKER_00: So with that snapshot in mind, here is the purpose of this series that we're going to do in Live Oak, but this message today, and it's this the purpose of this message is for us to know that we can trust Jesus in everything.
SPEAKER_00: That we can trust Jesus in everything.
SPEAKER_00: So today we'll be in Luke's gospel, but before we do that, just a couple little tidbits that will make this make sense for us.
SPEAKER_00: Number one is that there's this thing called inspiration of scripture.
SPEAKER_00: In theology, we call it the inspiration of scripture.
SPEAKER_00: Here's what it means for us: it means that every word matters.
SPEAKER_00: And that will be key in just a moment as we will see.
SPEAKER_00: The second thing that we need to understand is that in the four gospels, Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John, three of them, Matthew, Mark, and Luke, are referred to as the synoptic gospels.
SPEAKER_00: What that means is that largely they convey the same things, the same accounts, the same events, yet from different angles and perspectives.
SPEAKER_00: And so, because of that, here's what this means.
SPEAKER_00: It means that all of the gospels are universally true, yet they were recorded by different authors from different perspectives, and here's the key, four different audiences.
SPEAKER_00: This means that when you read the gospels, all four of them, but especially even the synoptics, they may tell of the same event and yet include different details, and we'll see that in just a moment.
SPEAKER_00: But they are universally true in what they say, and yet each gospel was written by a different person, inspired by the Holy Spirit, with a different perspective and a different purpose.
SPEAKER_00: And that purpose is because many of them included specific audiences in mind.
SPEAKER_00: For instance, Matthew's gospel was written to a primarily Jewish audience.
SPEAKER_00: And so the contents of his gospel, though he may tell of the same events as Mark and Luke and even John, he would do so trying to highlight the Jewishness and the messianic fulfillment of Jesus' life and ministry.
SPEAKER_00: And why am I telling you that is because today we're going to look specifically at Luke's gospel, and the title of this message and the series that we're going to be in in Live Oak is just as he said, that comes from a phrase that Luke basically uses to convey his point, his purpose about the life of Jesus to a specific audience.
SPEAKER_00: In fact, the very beginning of Luke's gospel in Luke chapter 1, verses 1 through 4, this is what Luke says about why he is writing what he is writing.
SPEAKER_00: He says in verse 1 that many have undertaken to compile a narrative about the events that have been fulfilled among us, just as the original eyewitnesses and servants of the Word handed them down to us.
SPEAKER_00: In other words, he says, there are many people who have gone to great lengths to write down and to record and to preserve the life, teachings, and ministry of Jesus.
SPEAKER_00: And he says in verse 3, so it also seemed good to me, since I have carefully investigated everything.
SPEAKER_00: In other words, a lot has been said about this man named Jesus.
SPEAKER_00: And so Luke says, Well, I carefully investigated.
SPEAKER_00: I did my own research, and these 24 chapters that I'm writing to you are what I have verified based on what has been passed down to us and my independent investigation into these claims.
SPEAKER_00: So it seemed good to me, since I have carefully investigated everything from the very first to write to you in an orderly sequence, most honorable Theophilus.
SPEAKER_00: That's who he's writing to, but this is the purpose.
SPEAKER_00: He's writing to Theophilus based on his own research about the life, teachings, and ministry of Jesus.
SPEAKER_00: Verse 4, so that you may know the certainty of the things about which you have been instructed.
SPEAKER_00: In other words, here's what Luke says.
SPEAKER_00: Luke says, Look, Theophilus, everything that you've heard that's been passed down to you, here is my own version of that based on my own research, that you would know for sure that these things are true.
SPEAKER_00: And so Luke tells us that part of the reason that he writes is for certainty.
SPEAKER_00: And so, in order to affirm the certainty of who Jesus is and what he taught and what he did, is that Luke went to great lengths.
SPEAKER_00: And so when he writes this gospel, he will include little details that verify the certainty of who Jesus is, what he taught, and what he did.
SPEAKER_00: And so, in Luke chapter 19, we see the inclusion of a particular phrase, and this phrase that is included by Luke that is different because Matthew does not include this phrase.
SPEAKER_00: John does not include this event, at least this detail of this event, and yet Luke does.
SPEAKER_00: And I think it's because Luke wants us to know that down to the smallest of details, you can trust Jesus.
SPEAKER_00: This phrase that we're talking about first appears in Luke chapter 19, which also kicks off what we traditionally know as Holy Week.
SPEAKER_00: It's the last week of Jesus' ministry before he is crucified, and so we will see that this is the moment where Jesus enters triumphantly into Jerusalem.
SPEAKER_00: But before he does that, here's what we read about this little interaction that Luke includes that some of the other gospel writers do not, and again, to convey certainty down to the smallest of details.
SPEAKER_00: So Luke chapter 19, verse 28, here's what we read.
SPEAKER_00: When he, Jesus, had said these things, he has just taught a parable.
SPEAKER_00: And so after he taught that parable, when he had said these things, he went on ahead, going up to Jerusalem.
SPEAKER_00: He's not in Jerusalem, he's making his way towards Jerusalem.
SPEAKER_00: And as he approached Bethphage and Bethany, these are little towns on the outskirts of Jerusalem, as he approached these places, at the place called the Mount of Olives, he sent two of his disciples and said, So Jesus approaching Jerusalem on the outskirts of Jerusalem, he gets to these specific landmarks, and he gives two of his disciples very specific instructions.
SPEAKER_00: Here's what they are, verse 30.
SPEAKER_00: And said to these two, Go into the village ahead of you.
SPEAKER_00: As you enter it, you will find a colt tied there, a baby donkey, on which no one has ever sat.
SPEAKER_00: Untie it and bring it.
SPEAKER_00: So Jesus says, Hey guys, I'm going to send you ahead.
SPEAKER_00: You're going to come to this village.
SPEAKER_00: In this village, you're going to find a donkey, a baby donkey, and it's going to be tied up.
SPEAKER_00: Nobody's ever sat on it before.
SPEAKER_00: I want you to untie it and bring it to me.
SPEAKER_00: And then in verse 31, he says, This if anyone asks you, why are you untying it, say this, the Lord needs it.
SPEAKER_00: And so right off the bat, here's what we see.
SPEAKER_00: We see that Jesus gives very specific instructions to these two disciples.
SPEAKER_00: He's going to Jerusalem.
SPEAKER_00: He says, Hey, I want you guys to go ahead to the nearby village, untie this colt that you'll find, tie it up, and bring it to me.
SPEAKER_00: If anybody asks what's going on, just simply say the Lord needs it.
SPEAKER_00: But here's the phrase that we see in which Luke includes that other gospel writers do not.
SPEAKER_00: And I think it's because Luke wants us to know with certainty you can trust Jesus in every detail of life, including the smallest.
SPEAKER_00: Verse 32, here's what we see.
SPEAKER_00: So those who were sent, those two disciples who were given those instructions, they left and found it.
SPEAKER_00: Here's where the title comes from.
SPEAKER_00: Just as he had told them.
SPEAKER_00: Nobody's ever sat on it before, and I want you to untie it and bring it to me.
SPEAKER_00: And oh, by the way, if anybody asks what's going on, you just tell them, hey, the Lord needs it and go about your business.
SPEAKER_00: And they find it when they go into the village, they find it just as he had told them.
SPEAKER_00: In other words, here's what that means.
SPEAKER_00: That means down to the very detail, they find a cult tied up that nobody's ever sat on before in this village.
SPEAKER_00: How did Jesus know that?
SPEAKER_00: How did they know?
SPEAKER_00: Jesus simply gave them instructions and they found out that everything that he said down to the details were true.
SPEAKER_00: Now here's where it gets interesting in verse 33.
SPEAKER_00: As they were untying the colt, its owners said to them, Why are you untying the colt?
SPEAKER_00: Now I want you to imagine for just a second, put yourself in these shoes.
SPEAKER_00: Here are your two disciples, you're simply doing what Jesus said.
SPEAKER_00: You're untying a cult that does not belong to you because Jesus told you to, and then all of a sudden the owners show up.
SPEAKER_00: Now, again, put yourself in this situation, and the owners of this donkey see you, it looks like from their vantage point, committing a crime of stealing their donkey.
SPEAKER_00: You are untying a donkey that does not belong to you, it belongs to them.
SPEAKER_00: And they're like, hey, what are you doing?
SPEAKER_00: And here's what I would ask us is what would your response be in that moment?
SPEAKER_00: Because I know for me, I would be very uncomfortable.
SPEAKER_00: I would be very uncomfortable because of the perception of what's going on.
SPEAKER_00: It's one thing if a random stranger says, Hey, what are you doing?
SPEAKER_00: But this is the owner of the donkey.
SPEAKER_00: What would your response be?
SPEAKER_00: And here's what's even more interesting is that Jesus already gave them instructions on what to do in this scenario.
SPEAKER_00: Remember, Jesus says that when you go, you're going to find the colt tied on which nobody's ever sighed.
SPEAKER_00: Untie it and bring it.
SPEAKER_00: Okay, all that's good.
SPEAKER_00: And if anyone asks you, if anyone, but here's the thing, this isn't just anyone, this is the owner of the donkey.
SPEAKER_00: And the owner is like, hey, what are you doing?
SPEAKER_00: That's my donkey.
SPEAKER_00: What are you doing?
SPEAKER_00: And I think in this moment, Jesus has already given them instructions.
SPEAKER_00: And the instructions are if anyone asks you, why are you doing this?
SPEAKER_00: say the Lord needs it.
SPEAKER_00: Jesus has given them very specific instructions.
SPEAKER_00: Here is the question.
SPEAKER_00: The question is, would this answer be enough or sufficient for them in this moment?
SPEAKER_00: Jesus already said, here's what you're going to say if anybody asks.
SPEAKER_00: In the moment, though, it's the owner who is asking.
SPEAKER_00: The owner is like, hey, it looks like you're stealing my donkey.
SPEAKER_00: Here's the question.
SPEAKER_00: They have trusted Jesus to go into the village.
SPEAKER_00: They have found it just as he had told them.
SPEAKER_00: But what will they do in this uncomfortable moment when the owner is asking a question about you possibly stealing their donkey?
SPEAKER_00: In that moment, when Jesus says, tell them the Lord has need of it, is that answer enough?
SPEAKER_00: In other words, would they trust Jesus that this short, simple response would be enough?
SPEAKER_00: Or would they feel the need in this uncomfortable moment to begin to try to explain more than what Jesus simply said?
SPEAKER_00: To try to get themselves off the hook to try to say, hey, I know this looks bad, I can explain, all of that.
SPEAKER_00: Or simply, would they trust Jesus enough to simply respond how he has already instructed them to do?
SPEAKER_00: And that is with the short, simple response, the Lord has need of it.
SPEAKER_00: What if they don't believe that Jesus is Lord?
SPEAKER_00: What if they don't care about who Jesus is?
SPEAKER_00: What if they don't give a rip about what Jesus says about his miracles or his teaching?
SPEAKER_00: Like, what if they don't agree with anything that Jesus has done?
SPEAKER_00: Is that answer enough?
SPEAKER_00: And I think for us, it begs the question is, is what Jesus has said enough?
SPEAKER_00: Because Jesus told me to is basically their answer.
SPEAKER_00: When the owner says, What are you doing with my donkey?
SPEAKER_00: Like, that's my donkey.
SPEAKER_00: What are you doing?
SPEAKER_00: Who do you think you are?
SPEAKER_00: Why are you untying?
SPEAKER_00: Why are you stealing my donkey?
SPEAKER_00: All of these assumptions that are going into this question, what are you doing?
SPEAKER_00: And their simple response is this, Well, Jesus told me to.
SPEAKER_00: And my question to us, as we think about trusting Jesus, is Is this answer sufficient for us?
SPEAKER_00: Is that simple answer because Jesus told me to?
SPEAKER_00: Is that enough?
SPEAKER_00: Is it sufficient for our marriages?
SPEAKER_00: When Jesus says, let not man separate what God has joined together.
SPEAKER_00: And you're thinking, yeah, but it's so difficult.
SPEAKER_00: You don't understand what he's like, you don't understand what it's like to live with her.
SPEAKER_00: All of these explanations that we bring, and yet, as followers of Jesus, is it enough to simply trust Jesus?
SPEAKER_00: That Jesus knows what he's talking about when he says, hey, let not man separate what God has joined together?
SPEAKER_00: Is it sufficient for our kids?
SPEAKER_00: Will we raise our kids with certain expectations, certain priorities, certain things that we may or may not allow them to do or to watch because we care about their souls and their hearts?
SPEAKER_00: Is that going to be enough?
SPEAKER_00: Or do we feel the need to over-explain and justify things?
SPEAKER_00: Or is it good enough to say, hey, because Jesus says?
SPEAKER_00: Is it sufficient for our bosses?
SPEAKER_00: If we feel that, hey, I can't do what you're asking me to do because it it sets me at odds with Jesus, and and I follow Jesus, and so I have to be obedient to his word and his principles and his kingdom.
SPEAKER_00: Is it sufficient to say that to your boss or your spouse or your kids?
SPEAKER_00: Here's the thing about trust that we've already said is that trust is actionable.
SPEAKER_00: And so in this moment, faced with a difficult situation because the owner of the donkey sees them untying the donkey that Jesus told them to untie, and they say, What are you doing?
SPEAKER_00: Is that these disciples in this moment have the ability to respond in a way that shows they either trust Jesus or they don't.
SPEAKER_00: Trust is actionable.
SPEAKER_00: And in this moment, this awkward situation that comes up by being obedient to Jesus, the question is, is what Jesus has said already enough?
SPEAKER_00: The disciples' response would reveal whether or not they actually believe Jesus' instructions to be enough.
SPEAKER_00: And we see that response in verse 34.
SPEAKER_00: Their actions will tell whether or not they trust what Jesus has already told them.
SPEAKER_00: And they respond, verse 34, the Lord needs it.
SPEAKER_00: That simple response that Jesus has already instructed them to do in this moment, without trying to over-explain, without trying to justify themselves, they simply show by their actions that they trust that Jesus' words are enough.
SPEAKER_00: So they turn to the owner and they say, The Lord needs it.
SPEAKER_00: The disciples trusted Jesus.
SPEAKER_00: And here's why I think they trusted Jesus is because he had been right about everything up to that point.
SPEAKER_00: He told them ahead of time, hey, here's what's gonna happen.
SPEAKER_00: You're gonna go to this village, you're gonna find this donkey tied in this place and want you to untie it.
SPEAKER_00: If anybody asks, here's what you do.
SPEAKER_00: And because they found it just as he said, they see that, hey, we can trust Jesus in everything, including the smallest of details.
SPEAKER_00: We don't have to have everything figured out, we don't have to have this long justifying response to these people.
SPEAKER_00: We just simply trust Jesus enough to do what he said.
SPEAKER_00: The disciples trusted Jesus.
SPEAKER_00: He had been right about everything up to that point.
SPEAKER_00: And here's what I would say to us is so even if we don't understand all of the details, we can trust what Jesus has already said.
SPEAKER_00: So then, verse 35.
SPEAKER_00: Then they brought it to Jesus, and after throwing their clothes on the colt, they helped Jesus get on it.
SPEAKER_00: As he was going along, they were spreading their clothes on the road.
SPEAKER_00: Now he came near to the path or near the path down the Mount of Olives, and the whole crowd of the disciples began to praise God joyfully with a loud voice for all the miracles they had seen, and they began to shout, Blessed is the king who comes in the name of the Lord, peace in heaven and glory in the highest heaven.
SPEAKER_00: Now, what we would say is that this is affectionately known as the triumphal entry.
SPEAKER_00: This is Jesus getting on that donkey that was brought to him, and he rides it into Jerusalem.
SPEAKER_00: And the reason that he does so is that he actually fulfills a prophecy that dates back to Zechariah, Zechariah chapter 9, verse 9, as Jesus rode this donkey into Jerusalem.
SPEAKER_00: This is what Zechariah prophesied years before.
SPEAKER_00: Rejoice greatly, daughter Zion.
SPEAKER_00: Shout in triumph, daughter Jerusalem, look, your king is coming to you.
SPEAKER_00: He is righteous and victorious, humble and riding on a donkey, on a colt, the full of a donkey.
SPEAKER_00: And so what's happening in the grander scheme of the storyline of the Bible is that Jesus is fulfilling all that the prophets foreshadowed, that he is the coming Messiah.
SPEAKER_00: He is the king that would descend from the lineage of David, who would rule over this eternal kingdom.
SPEAKER_00: This is who Jesus is.
SPEAKER_00: He is the Messiah.
SPEAKER_00: He is the Savior who has come to save the world.
SPEAKER_00: And what we see is that in this case, these two disciples, they trusted Jesus, that he is the king, that he is the Messiah, that he is the Son of God, and demonstrated by their actions, they show that they trust him.
SPEAKER_00: But here's what's ironic.
SPEAKER_00: What's ironic is that there are other people who witness Jesus riding into town, and rather than recognizing him as the Son of God, the King, the Messiah, who comes to rule over this eternal kingdom, instead, these people are displeased with Jesus.
SPEAKER_00: Look what happens in verse 39.
SPEAKER_00: Some of the Pharisees from the crowd told him, Teacher, Jesus, rebuke your disciples.
SPEAKER_00: Rebuke them for what?
SPEAKER_00: Well, they're saying that, hey, do you hear what they're saying?
SPEAKER_00: They're saying that you are the king who comes.
SPEAKER_00: They're saying that you are the Messiah.
SPEAKER_00: You need to do something about this.
SPEAKER_00: You need to rebuke them and tell them to hush because we know that we don't take lightly these messianic prophecies.
SPEAKER_00: And so what these Pharisees are saying to Jesus is, we don't trust that you are the Messiah.
SPEAKER_00: Our actions of unbelief demonstrate that we don't believe that you are who you say that you are.
SPEAKER_00: Therefore, you need to rebuke these disciples because what they're saying is wrong.
SPEAKER_00: And Jesus answers in verse 40 I tell you, if they were to keep silent, the very stones would cry out.
SPEAKER_00: Jesus was criticized by these people who did not believe that he was the Messiah, and here's why.
SPEAKER_00: Because trust is actionable, and their action showed that they did not trust that Jesus was the fulfillment of all of their messianic hopes.
SPEAKER_00: And so here's what's interesting about this as we wind down this message.
SPEAKER_00: Again, the point of this message is to show us that we can trust Jesus, and ultimately we can trust Jesus because of who he is.
SPEAKER_00: He is the King of the Jews.
SPEAKER_00: He is the fulfillment of messianic hopes and prophecies.
SPEAKER_00: He is the Son of God who has descended to the earth, wrapped himself in human flesh.
SPEAKER_00: We can trust him because of who he is.
SPEAKER_00: And what we see in this encounter is that we see two very different groups of people.
SPEAKER_00: We see a stark difference between the Pharisees who rebuke and correct Jesus that, hey, you need to do something about this because what they're saying is not true.
SPEAKER_00: And yet we see that there's the faithfulness and the obedience of two men who see that everything that Jesus has already said is true, down to the smallest details.
SPEAKER_00: These two disciples see that it is just as he said that what Jesus has said and what he does say is sufficient, therefore we can trust him with our very lives.
SPEAKER_00: Meanwhile, there's a whole group of people who miss it.
SPEAKER_00: And they miss it because their conclusion, based on their actions, is that we cannot trust what Jesus has already said.
SPEAKER_00: And ultimately, what God has already said through his prophets, we cannot trust it.
SPEAKER_00: So here's the question that I have for us as we wind it down, and it's this is that do you trust Jesus?
SPEAKER_00: Do you trust that everything that he's already said is sufficient down to the very details?
SPEAKER_00: And more than that, is not just do you trust it, but what do the actions of your life say?
SPEAKER_00: Do you find yourself trying to fill in the gaps?
SPEAKER_00: Do you find yourself trying to overexplain and to make up for what Jesus says that confronts our culture, that confronts your realities at work or at home in your marriage?
SPEAKER_00: Or do you, like these two men, have you found it?
SPEAKER_00: It is just as he said.
SPEAKER_00: I think all of this points to two realities is that we can trust Jesus in everything because of who he is, down to the smallest of details.
SPEAKER_00: The question is, do we?
SPEAKER_00: And my hope and my prayer in this message is that our trust, our faith in Jesus would not just be knowledge that we say is true, but it would be verified by the fact that we trust Jesus with everything, to the point that we lay down our very lives and we follow him wherever he leads.
SPEAKER_00: This is my prayer for you.
SPEAKER_00: This is my prayer for us as a church, is that we would know that we can trust Jesus and that we would.
SPEAKER_00: That we would simply trust him.
SPEAKER_00: We would simply trust that his word is sufficient, no matter where we find ourselves, what situation we find ourselves in, we would simply lean on what he has said, and that when we do so, we would find that it is just as he said.
SPEAKER_00: My prayer is that your faith would be made stronger as you look to Jesus and realize that we can trust him in everything.
SPEAKER_00: Let me pray for you.
SPEAKER_00: God, we thank you for your word.
SPEAKER_00: Lord, we thank you that down to the very details we see that Luke records for us is that he would say and plead and beg with us is that you can trust Jesus with everything down to the smallest of details.
SPEAKER_00: God, I pray for us that we would learn what it means to trust you with all of our heart, all of our soul, all of our mind, all of our strength, that we would not feel the obligation to overexplain or to justify or to fill in the gaps, but we would simply stand on what you have said, and that in our actions that we trust you, we would find it just as you said.
SPEAKER_00: Or this is my prayer for us that our faith would be made stronger.
SPEAKER_00: We love you, we thank you, we ask this in Jesus' name.
SPEAKER_00: Amen.
