God Is In Trouble With You (Audio Fixed)

YouTube sermon-style monologue by speaker Myron (uploaded by Clegg, May 4, 2023) arguing that when a person is 'in Christ' God is 'in trouble with you' — i.e., God is present with, supportive of, and active in believers' troubles. The speaker repeatedly grounds this claim in Psalm 46:1 and other biblical narratives (Jesus calmed the storm; Moses and "I am that I am"; Elijah and consuming fire; Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego in the furnace; David and Goliath), and illustrates with personal anecdotes (mother's recovery, small financial provision, motorcycle near‑crash). Main emphases: God is positive, personal, protective, powerful, present, peaceful and profitable in believers' troubles; unbelievers are warned of judgment and urged to trust in Christ.
Chapters
Hey, there. Today I am going to talk to you about this subject. God is in trouble with you, Myron. What do you mean, trouble? God is in trouble with you. God is in trouble with you. That is, unless you're not in trouble with God. If so, if you're. If you're in trouble with God, God's not in trouble with you. But if you're. If you are not in trouble with God, God's in trouble with you. What does that even mean? Sounds like a tongue twister, doesn't it? But it's not. It's in the Bible. Watch this. Here's what it says. Psalms chapter 50, Psalms, chapter 46 and verse number one. Here's what it says. God is our refuge and our strength. A very present help in trouble. Therefore will not we fear though the earth be removed and though the mountains be carried into the midst of the sea, though the waters thereof roar and be troubled, though the mountains shake with the swelling thereof. There is a river, the streams whereof shall make glad the city of God. The holy place of the tabernacles of the Most High. God is in the midst of her and she shall not be moved.
I lost my place. I gotta put my glasses back on. God is in the midst of her, and she shall not be moved. God shall help her and that right early the heathen raised the kingdoms removed. He uttered his voice and the earth melted. The Lord of hosts is with us. The God of Jacob is our refuge. Selah, come behold the works of the Lord. What desolations he hath made in the earth. He maketh wars to cease unto the ends of the earth. He breaketh the bow and cut of the spear and sunder, he burneth the chariot in the fire. Be still and know that I am God. I will be exalted among the heathen. I will be exalted in the earth. The Lord of hosts is with us. The God of Jacob is our refuge. When I say God is in trouble with you, that doesn't mean he's in trouble with you like your children get in trouble with you. It means if you are in Christ, when you are in trouble, you are not in that trouble by yourself. God is in that trouble with you. Here's what it says. God is our refuge and our strength. The first thing I want you to see in this verse is that God is. God is first and foremost. God is positive in trouble with you. It says God is our refuge and our strength. It didn't say God might be our refuge and our strength. God's probably our refuge and our strength. Every now and then. God is our refuge and our strength. It says God is our refuge and our strength. In fact we could just end the statement with this God is.
Like, and then go sit down.
Because God is that positive. And if God's positive in trouble with you, you don't need to be negative in trouble with you. Because it's really interesting. If you go read Mark chapter four, there's a story, Jesus says to his disciples, let us pass over to the other side. He gets in the boat. It's really interesting too because the two sides, there was the side like geographically there was the side of the Sea of Galilee that was where the Israelites were. And there was the other side of the Galilee Sea of Galilee where the enemies of the Israelites were and the pagan worship and all that stuff was being done. Jesus said, let's pass over to the other side. And they get on the boat with him and the scripture says that a great storm arose and the winds and the waves beat into the ship. So the ship was now full.
And it says, this is one of the funniest things I've ever seen in my life. It says, and Jesus was in the hinder part of the ship, asleep on a pillow.
He said, no, I ain't just going to sleep, I'm going to go to sleep on a pillow. Why? Because God is so positive in trouble with you that he's both calm, he's asleep and he's comfortable, he's on a pillow. God is positive in trouble with you. Like some people think I'm Pollyanna and I oh, Myron's just always positive, positive. I'm aware, I'm aware of the fact that no matter how big the trouble is, God is bigger than the trouble. Do you understand that? David was more aware of God than he was of Goliath. Everybody else is more aware of Goliath than they were of God. See, your problem is not that you have a problem. Your problem is that you are hyper focused on the problem and you're more aware of the problem than you are the God who's positive in the problem with you.
God is Moses. God said, Moses, I want you to march into, into Pharaoh's office and tell him I said let my people go. And Moses was a stutterer. Go tell, go tell. Pharaoh said let my people go.
Tell him. Sent me. And like every time I read that I'm like dude, what kind of question is that? Like I wanted to, like if I was there I'd want to Coach Moses, right? Moses, bro, that's not the question. Who should I say I sent you? That ain't what I would ask. See, I'm very skeptical by nature, right? So I would have asked a question. Like I said, Moses, here's what you ask. What can I tell Pharaoh you said you gonna do if he say no? That's what I'd say, right. But Moses understood something that I didn't understand, and that is this. That authority is always an alignment issue, right? And so who shall I say has sent me is a better question. And what can I say? He's. And then. And then God said, I am that I am.
What? The question made the answer made less sense than the question to me. I am that I am. That's the like. I am that I am. What does that mean? Who was it that put the moon and the sun in the heavens? I am that I am. Who was it that deck the heavens with the stars? I am that I am. Who was it that smoothed out a chaotic earth and scooped out a place with his hand, put the water in it, tied it down with a rope of sand and called it oceans? I am that I am. Who was it that put a garment of green over the valleys and the mountains and the hills? I am that I am. Who was it that buttoned it up with lilies and garlands and wove it with laughing daffodils? I am that I am. Tell him I sent you. And he might be the greatest king on the earth, but I am the greatest king above the earth. And he is only the greatest king on the earth because I made him the greatest king on the earth.
Tell him I sent you. I am that I am. God is positive in trouble with you. So when you're in trouble and you're in Christ, know you ain't in that trouble by yourself. Because Jesus said, lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the age. Hey, what? What am I saying? I'm saying I'm never in trouble by myself. God is in trouble with me. And when he's there, he's positive. And since he's positive, I'm going to be positive. I'm going to look at his face, and when he starts looking worried, I'm going to start looking worried.
Here's what the scripture says. Thou will keep him in perfect peace whose mind is stayed on thee. The problem is your focus is off. You thought the situation was off. The situation is just the situation. And every obstacle you will ever face is an opportunity for you to exercise your Faith.
And so you can stumble on it or step on it, you can stumble down or step up, but God is positive, in trouble with you. Now, here's what it says. It says, God is our refuge. So God's not just positive, in trouble with you, but God is personal.
In trouble with you. I am so glad I don't just serve the God of my mother or the God of my father, or the God of my ancestors, or the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. I never met Abraham, Isaac or Jacob. God is personal to me. I'm talking about a God. When I talk to him, he hears me. I'm talking about a God. When I'm in pain, he comforts me. And God can give me peace in my pain. And the peace can be greater than the pain. And it doesn't matter how great the pain is.
Talking about that guy, he's personal. And by the way, I don't mean kind of, sort of, almost a little bit maybe personal. I mean, he's our refuge and our strength. Guess what? I am a part of our. I am a part of we.
God is personal, in trouble with you. I'm so glad that I don't. Yeah, God is. God is far away, but he's also up close because he's everywhere. You can't go anywhere where you ain't in his presence. You can go somewhere where you're not aware of his presence, but you can't go anywhere where he's not present. He's personal to me. I remember so many times in my life.
Times now, but times at the beginning of my Christian journey when I started walking with God, like after I came to Christ. I can remember so many times that God showed up and just did things that were seemingly impossible. I remember when my mother was in the hospital with cancer and she was like, on her deathbed. And I'm a teenager and I'm crying out to God and crying because it's my mama.
And like, it did not look good. I mean, it didn't look good at all. And she came out of it.
And lived for decades.
God is personal and trouble with you. I remember one time I was in. I was in college. I was broke as a joke and ready to choke. I mean, I was broke. I was pitiful, poor. I was so poor. Poor people felt sorry for me.
That's poor. And I remember, I remember.
Just saying, lord, you know what? I sure wish I had some money just for an ice cream cone.
Walked in the restroom, came out of the restroom, somebody just pressed something in my hand and Said, here, God told me to give you this. It was $3. That was. That $3. That $3 meant more to me than a lot of millions that I've made since because God was showing me he cared enough about his child to buy him an ice cream cone. I'm talking about personal. I'm talking about personal.
God is our refuge and our strength. Oh, he's our refuge. He's our protection. In trouble with us. God is protective.
In trouble with you? How protective is God? So it's really interesting. I love the fact that God cannot lie, but he still gets to make up the rules.
Isn't that awesome? Like, God is not bound by the laws of physics. The laws of physics are bound by God. I love the fact that the Bible has three different types of fire. Now, I've only experienced one type of fire. That's the kind of burns. But there's three types of fire in the Bible. So y' all remember the story about Moses, right? We talked about Moses a few minutes ago. And Moses is over there, and he's tending to the sheep. And maybe he's taken some. Some burrows out of the sheep's fur. And the sheep sees the fire before Moses does. The sheep says, moses, fire back. Okay, that probably didn't happen. Okay, okay. But Moses sees a burning bush, but he don't see no smoke.
So this is odd. The bush is on fire.
But the bush is not consumed.
That's called fire that don't burn. How many on tracking? Fire don't burn. Okay, that's cool. Well, Elijah. This is a different kind of fire. Elijah pronounced judgment on the king of Samaria. The king of Samaria sent 51.
Ancient GI Joes.
You go tell Elijah I said, come down. And they went and said this. 51 soldiers. Elijah, just preach.
Elijah. The king said, come down. Elijah said.
If I be a man of God, let fire come down from heaven and consume thee in thy 50. And fire came down from heaven, consumed him and his 50.
Only one person was left. That person was only left so they could go back and tell the king. Your Majesty, we delivered your message, but it didn't go how we planned. We had swords in hand, bows drawn, and we told Elijah, you said, come down. And he called down fire. And it burned up 50 of the 51 you sent. Now, the king didn't understand. He didn't get it. So he said, well, I just send 51 more.
He said, 51 more. The second dude says, hey, Elijah, God has said, come down quickly. Oh, y' all didn't get it? Okay, cool. Watch this. If I be a man of God, let fire come down and consume you in your 50. Fire came down from heaven consumed. Fire that burns. So we got fire over here with Moses. Don't burn. We got fire with Elijah. That burns.
You know what the king did? The king sent 50 more. 51 more, but this the third. The captain of the third 50 was smarter than the mother two. He said, Elijah, I don't want to die today, bro. He said, could you please. Could you please? Like you don't understand. If you don't come, I'm going to die. Either you going to kill me with the fire, or I'm going to go back and tell the king, I couldn't get you to come down. He going to kill me. So I don't want to die today. So would you please come with us? Elijah said, okay, now I'll go.
Fire that burns. By the way, wouldn't it be awesome if in the United States of America and other places in the world, we had men of God who are willing to stand for truth in the face of wrong, in the face of evil, regardless of government consequences?
I wish I had some help in here.
The reason they want to silence the voices of righteousness is so the only voices in our children's ears are the voices of evil.
But then there's another fire. Now, this is the most unusual fire in the whole Bible, because King Nebuchadnezzar. It's interesting. King Nebuchadnezzar. All these stories are about kings and men of God. Nebuchadnezzar builds an idol to himself, and then he has a concert. He says, here's what we're going to do. I'm going to play. I'm going to have the band play. When the band plays, I want everybody to bow down and worship. Everybody's bowed out. Tens of thousands of people bowing down in worship. Except for three people. Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego. Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego had replaced some of the other Kings counselors.
One of them elbowed the other one. Dude, we about to get our job back. Look, them Hebrews, they ain't bowing. Let's go tell the king. Your Majesty, those three Hebrews that you gave our jobs to. Yeah. You said everybody bowed. We was bound. They wasn't bound. He called Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego. He said, I really like you. I'm gonna give y' all another chance. Y' all probably didn't understand or maybe you didn't hear the music, but I'm gonna give y' all another chance to bow down. Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego said, we are not careful to answer thee in this matter. Our God personal, whom we serve, is able, that's powerful to deliver us. And he will. He's able and willing. And then they. So here's what we need. We need some. We need some. Like God is looking for some people, some men and some women who are willing to stand on his truth and declare, God will deliver us. And he's willing. He's able, and he. And he will.
He's powerful.
Enough to do it, and he's willing enough to do it. But he's so powerful, even if he doesn't, I still ain't bowing.
It says. It says, then Nebuchadnezzar, in his rage and fury, he didn't just have rage. He didn't just have fury. He had rage and fury.
He said his visage was changed, his face was changed against Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego. And he commanded his army to heat the furnace 17 times more than it was going to be heated. When you begin to take a stand for good and for God, do not be surprised when the world loses their natural mind.
He said. He said, oh, we're gonna eat this. I'm gonna eat this. I'm throwing the same hour into the Mr. Burning Fire Furnace. But we're gonna hit this thing seven times hotter than it's ever been heated. Because we're gonna kill you seven times deader than anybody's ever been killed. And I'm gonna burn you seven times more crispy than anybody's ever been burned. I. And that furnace is just raging, and it's shaken from this heat. And here's what the scripture says. The most mighty men. The king commanded the most mighty men that was in. I mean, they were strong as me. Okay, Maybe a little stronger. Y' all laughing a little bit too hard at that for me now. Y' all laughing a little bit too hard. Y' all might want to pump the brakes on that laughter a little bit. Okay. Anyway, most mighty men that were in his army. And the scripture says the most mighty men threw Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego into the midst. Into the middle of the burning fiery furnace. And. And it said the flame of the fire was so hot that it slew the men that threw them into the fire.
And then it says. And Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego fell down, bound in the midst of the fire.
And then Nebuchadnezzar rose up in haste. He said, didn't we throw three men into the midst of the fire? His men said, yes, we did. Okay. He said, I see four loose. Did not we throw three men bound into the midst of the fire? I see four men loose walking in the midst of the fire. And the form of the fourth is like unto the son of God.
That's called fire that burns some folk and don't burn other folk.
God is not bound by the rules because he makes the rules.
God's powerful. In trouble with you. Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego thrown into the midst of a furnace that was seven times hotter than it's ever been heated, and they did not die. Here's what the scripture says. It says Nebuchadnezzar went to the mouth of the furnace, said, come forth, O Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego, come forth. Come hither. And it says, these men, it says when they fell down, they fell down, bound in their hats and their hoses and their coats and their other garments. I mean, they tied them up and threw them in there so fast, they didn't even have time to take off their hat or their coat. It says they came. It said they came forth of the midst of the fire.
And.
Their eyebrows weren't singed, neither were the head of their hair singed. Neither had the smell of fire passed upon them.
God is protective. And protective in trouble with you. There have been so many times God has protected me from. I remember one time God protected me from my stupidity.
I mean, I'm sure there were a bunch of times, but there's one time in particular. So. I used to be a motorcycle rider, but I wasn't just a motorcycle rider. I was a motorcycle idiot. Like when I got on a motorcycle and I lost my mind. Motorcycle being on a motorcycle brought about in me, for some strange reason, temporary insanity.
And I didn't like I get on a motorcycle. I didn't know how to ride a motorcycle slow because it'll go fast. Why would you want to ride it slow and go fast? It'll go fast. I was the guy who would ride 100 miles an hour, 120 miles an hour with no helmet.
I told you. Why y' all judging me? I told y'. All. I already confessed, and y' all still judging me. Look, I was dumb as a box of rocks on a motorcycle. And I remember one time I was flying home, I was on my Kawasaki 650i got from my brother Rob. I was. This is back in the 80s. I am flying. I'm flying down Route 30 in Crown Point, Indiana. At nighttime, this woman pulls out of Kmart parking lot. And I was going so fast. And I had crash bars on the outside. I was going so fast. She didn't see me until she got out there. And then she froze and stopped. And I'm sorry. Do you know how hard is to lean a motorcycle when you're going 100 miles an hour? I'm like, I'm about to die. I'm about to die. I was ready. And somehow or another, I missed that car, man, I got that motorcycle home. I parked that thing.
And I remember when my children were small, I said, you know what? Why am I riding a motorcycle? These kids need. I put them in a car seat, and I'm riding a motorcycle without a helmet. I said, I will never get on one of these things as long as I live again. These kids need me more than I need them.
Stop riding motorcycles. I know me. I can't ride them slow. Now, you can ride them slow because you're smarter than me. But okay, y' all get it. God protected me from my own stupidity.
I'm probably not the only one. Oh, okay, now I got a witness. Okay. God is our refuge. God is our refuge. That's protection. But watch this. He's also our strength. God is powerful. In trouble with you.
I love the fact that God is powerful in the trouble with us. God's in trouble with us. He's powerful. He's more powerful than in trouble. You don't believe he's more powerful than in trouble? Ask Noah when the rain fell. You don't believe he's more powerful than the trouble? Ask Joseph, who was sold into slavery, lied on, went to prison for a crime he didn't commit, and then God made him the prime minister. God is powerful. God is powerful enough to turn your entire situation around. God is so powerful, just being aware of his presence caused you.
I remember I was in elementary. I remember when I was in elementary school, and I thought I was pretty. I thought I was tough. I didn't know what tough was, but I thought I was tough. And I remember I was playing baseball cards with Richie Cuff.
Oh. Oh. I was playing baseball cards with Richie Cuff. And he just cheated and took all my baseball cards. I mean, it was stack of baseball cards this high.
I was mad. I was sad. And Richie was older than me. So I went and told my brother, Jeff, Jeff. Richie took my baseball cards and Jeff went and confronted him, and.
Richie snuck him.
Richie snuck him. He gave me. He sucker punched him in the eye. But my brother, like, don't be judging my mom and daddy now. But in both their words, I'm gonna quote them verbatim. I ain't raising no punk, okay, y'? All right? You might not win, but you gonna fight. Okay? Jeff figured out when and where the day of revenge was coming.
And it traveled slowly, but when it got there, it was complete. You know what the Bible verse for that is, don't you?
Because judgment against an evil work is not executed speedily. Therefore, the hearts of the sons of men is fully sending them to do evil. And when Jeff got him back, boy, man, he. You could tell he was contemplating that for a long time.
But. But you know what? If my brothers were. And I. Like, if my brothers were around, I'm gonna fight. What you gonna do you gonna do? I got six brothers.
I got something better than that. God is powerful, in trouble with me. There's nothing you can do to make me worry you ain't more powerful than God. And he can move you out of my way like he moved Goliath out of David's way.
I am not confused.
And I know all the people from a lot of people from the past who declared that God was dead. They are now dead. And God is still alive because he's powerful. In trouble with you.
I ain't worried about anything at all. Why? There's nothing to worry about. God's power. God's in trouble with me. And guess what? God is in trouble with me. And I'm not in trouble with God because when I'm with him, there is no trouble.
Huh? Depends on who you in trouble. Depends on who you with.
God is our refuge and our strength. A very present help in trouble. Okay, present God is present.
In trouble with you. Guess what? Here's what the scripture says. Scripture says, be careful for nothing. No, it says. It says, rejoice in the Lord always. Rejoice in the Lord always. And again I say rejoice. Now, the prefix re means to do again, right? So rejoice means to have joy. Again, have joy in the Lord. When? Always. And then it says, and again I say, rejoice or and again I say again, have joy. So if we were just going to say and again, instead of putting the re prefix there, we would say, again, have joy in the Lord always. And again I say again, have joy. What's that sound like to you? That sounds like to me that as a follower of Christ, I am to live in a state of perpetual joyfulness. Did I say that too fast? But you don't know what I'm going through. No, that's not the problem. The problem is not that I don't know what you're going through if you are in Christ. The problem is you don't know who you're going through it with. That's the real problem.
Because the scripture says, the very next verse, rejoice in the Lord always. And again I say, rejoice. The very next verse says, let your moderation be known unto all men, for the Lord is hand. That verse confused me for so long because it says, let your moderation. Moderation is self control. What does self control have to do with joy? Everything.
That said too fast, you say, martin, what do you mean? It says, let your moderation be known unto all men. What does it say next? For the Lord is at hand. So he's saying, telling me to be joyful. And then he's telling me how to be joyful. You. You. The way you be joyful is by being willful. Willfully. What? Let your moderation, your self control be known unto all men. The Lord is at hand. What does that mean? People are watching you. So make sure you maintain an awareness of the closeness of the Lord. So I'm using my willfulness, not using my self control, to make myself forge through. I'm using my self control to make sure I am more aware of the presence of the Lord than I am the presence of my circumstance.
Are y' all tracking? Because when I'm more aware of the presence of the Lord than I am the presence of my circumstance, the Lord becomes big and the circumstance becomes small.
So I'm using my self control, my willfulness, to be willfully aware of the presence of the Lord. Okay. Let your moderation be known unto all men. The Lord is at hand. God is. God is positive. In trouble with you. He's personal. In trouble with you. He's protective. In trouble with you. He's powerful. In trouble with you. He's present. In trouble with you. God is our refuge and our strength. A very present help in trouble. Therefore will not we fear though the earth be removed and though the mountains be carried into the midst of the sea, God is peaceful. In trouble with you.
By the way, peaceful means full of peace. God's peaceful. You don't have anything to worry about. I don't have anything to worry about. I can only imagine when I read the story, the confusion of David when he came down to see the battle when he came down to bring his brothers, who were soldiers, food. And he came down and nobody was fighting. Everybody was hiding. Like, as soon as David heard Goliath breathing out threatenings, he knew Goliath couldn't win. Because here's what the Goliath was doing. He was cursing the armies of Israel. Do you remember what God said to Abram back in Genesis chapter 12? Lord God said to Abram, get the out of the house. I mean out of your country, from your kindred, from your father's house. Go to a land that I will show you, and I will make you a great nation. And I will bless those that bless you and curse those that curse you. And you. All the families of the earth shall be blessed. I will bless those that bless you, curse those that curse you. As soon as David heard Goliath cursing the armies of God, he knew Goliath couldn't win.
And Goliath said, you come to me with sticks and stones, and you're just a lad. I'm going to tear you limb from limb. He said, you come to me with sword. With a sword and a shield. But I come to you in the name of the Lord our God. And today he will deliver you into my hand and I will take your head from you and feed your carcass to the birds of the air. That's bold. You talk about peace.
David said. David said, so I'm gonna go fight this giant, but before I do, let me negotiate a contract. What do I get?
David said, yeah, I get it. God's positive and God's personal and God's protective and God's powerful and God's. God's peaceful. But God's also.
God's also profitable.
Profitable. In trouble with you.
So what? He said, well, the man that defeats this giant, the king's going to enrich him with great riches. Okay, cool. He's going to give him his daughter to wife and his father's house will be free in Israel, which means no more taxes for your entire family. Like, let. Just let me fight Goliath. Just send me right now, right now. I'll go fight Goliath or anybody else just for the last one. I don't want the king's daughter. I don't need the great rich. Just no more taxes. Hallelujah. Okay, anyway, sheesh, boy, you can't even get the government's hand out your pocket. Okay, Anyway, and then after they told him what he gets, he went back and said, turned to somebody and said, what's the man gonna get to does this. And then he asked again three times. David got confirmation on his payment. Why? In the Hebrew culture, at the mouth of two or three witnesses, let everything be established. David said, I'll go fight this man because God.
Is in this trouble with me. I am never in anything by myself. If I go through losing my job or losing my business, God's in trouble with me. If I go through losing a loved one, God is in trouble with me. If I go through losing my health, God is in trouble with me. If I have him, I have everything I need. God is peaceful, in trouble with me. Story about Jesus being asleep on the pillow.
They went and shook him and woke him, saying, master Carestoul not that we perish. And here's what it says.
Jesus looked up at the wind and said, peace. And he looked down at the waves and said, be still. It actually says he rebuked the wind and said unto the sea.
Isn't that interesting? He rebuked the wind, but he didn't rebuke the sea. He rebuked the wind. But he said unto the sea, peace, be still. Why did he rebuke the wind? Because in Scripture, wind is a picture of false doctrine. And false doctrine has to be rebuked.
But the waves are a picture of false doubt. God doesn't rebuke us for our doubt. He just speaks to our doubt. Why? Because faith cometh by hearing and hearing by the word of God. When I say the same thing to me that God has already said to me about my situation, I have faith in that situation, I don't have doubt. See, I've got good news for you. If you have trusted in the death, burial and resurrection of Jesus Christ, God is in trouble with you. You are never in trouble by yourself. But if you've not trusted in the death, burial and resurrection of Jesus Christ, you are in trouble with God. And when you stand before him, the great white throne judgment, as the Scripture lays it out, you are going to be in big trouble.
And at that point, it'll be too late. If you don't know Jesus, my recommendation to you is that you receive him as your Savior. This whole. I'm not talking about giving your life to Jesus, whatever that means.
Because salvation is not a gift I give God. Salvation is a gift God gave me.

And neither do you if you're in Christ. Thanks for watching, thanks for sharing, thanks for subscribing, thanks for liking and playing and all the YouTubey stuff y' all know how to do. Thank you. I appreciate you all more than I can put into words. In the meantime, in between time.
