We have gone 18 days in a row doing 31 push-ups for the month of July. Today will be our 19th day. We've done 31 push-ups for the month of July, and we are honoring, in case you're new here, we are honoring the Patriots in America 250 andveterans, anybody who's had a hand in keeping this country going and safe and starting this country, we've we're we're honoring that's what we're doing with the push ups and we're trying to stay in shape at the same time. So like I said, thirty one push ups today. Day nineteen. Let's get it going. All right.Mm.One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten, eleven, twelve, thirteen, fourteen, fifteen, sixteen, seventeen, eighteen, nineteen, twenty, twenty-one, twenty-two, twenty-three, twenty-four, twenty-five, twenty-six, twenty-seven, twenty-eight, twenty-nine, thirty, thirty-one,Woo Yeah buddy can't see you there you go Yeah so it's really hot today I don't know if you can tell but it's really hot and I got some new gloves kind of wore the other ones that are out had gas on them stuff so we also had a this is life on the farm okay we had a snake get in the guinea pinAnd it was a big snake. Have to take care of that. And now we've got a guinea loose on the porch. The dogs are all going crazy over it. Little bitty baby guinea. So gotta find that one. That's just another day in the life, right? we went to church today, we had a good time. one thing the pastor talked about was wanting to do more.Do you believe that you're called to do more in this world? I've been thinking about that a lot before this this service today, which is a part of the reason I started this channel. And I think we're all called to do more than we actually think we are. we don't think we're worthy, you know, we don't think we're good enough for God.For God to choose us to to do something great, you know, for the for the kingdom or even for ourselves or for our family or for somebody else. You know, God used throughout the Bible, he used misfits, he used people that were broken, he used people that were flawed, he used sinners, he didn't use, he didn't go find the perfect people and use them.And that's one thing I really had to get over in my life is I never felt good enough really to be a tool or an instrument for God. I never really felt good enough or smart enough or or you know righteous enough to give God's message out to you know I was like who am I who am I to tell you about Jesus? Who am I to tell you to find Jesus?when i struggle every day with with things with with worldly things right but paul and many others in the bible talk about you know struggling themselves with worldly things and you know it's I think it was Isaiah six Isaiah 6:8 that talks about send me you know God says who will go for us. Isiah says. I will Lord, Send Me.
