Good morning. Wednesday, December 31st, New Year’s Eve. We have been together, as you well know, for 365 mornings throughout the course of 2025. And I’m grateful and I’m thankful and I appreciate every single one of you. And um we’re going to give it just a moment before we do our farewell passage. Uh that’s right, not a farewell verse.

I’m going to read to you uh my prayer for you. I’m going to read to you this morning in our last time together. Um what my heart is for you, for all of you. If you’ve been with us from the very start or if you’ve joined us along the way, uh it’s a wonderful thing and I would just uh again of course you guys know the routine.

Please leave your prayer request in the comment section and your brothers and sisters around the world will meet right here this day. Who knows? Um but if they will remember you to pray for you from this day forward. So today’s passage everybody is Colossians chapter 1 verses 9-14. It’s it’s big by design. Thought about this a long time for this last probably two weeks.

Colossians chapter 1 verses 9-14. And uh we’ll wait till we uh hit our minimum number here on Facebook and we’ll get going here together. I’m ask you to be patient with my dry eyes which I have and I just want to again blown away by coming to today the faithfulness of God. So, first of all, before we pray, I want you guys to know some personal things.

Um, being very very honest, very very uh open with all of you this morning on this closing day. Uh, you don’t need to analyze what I’m about to say because it doesn’t matter to me. With all due respect, um, comments won’t matter to me. With all due respect, with what I’m about to share with you, um, just me knowing what what God has shown me um, and what he has done in these last 365 days together.

No, it needs no comment because uh I don’t need any man’s opinion if that matters. And it’s this. Before we pray this passage, before I pray this passage over you, I want you guys to know that in being with you together this la this year forever reason for the wisdom of God, I have not been sick one day in the entire year.
