That was wonderful.

You know, I almost thought I wasn't going to get an introduction which means I've preached here enough that I didn't need one and I was actually excited about it.

And then you took that away from me.

So I am thankful to be back.

God is so good.

And I love coming in and just sharing what God is doing in and just being able to preach.

So many times, I get around too many young people and it's nice to be around.

I'll just adults for a while.

He hung himself.

It's nice last week last month.

I had an opportunity to go down to San Antonio along with about 11:00 staff and then about 11:00 spouses or other guests from fellowship of Christian athletes from all across.

The not only the United States but across the world and we got to see an amazing thing that I want to share with you all just one because of your passion for Ukraine and praying and setting up a fun to give it to support.

But also just because God is so good.

So we have 20 28, staff members, staff FDA staff people in Ukraine, the week before everything, in Russia, went went off and all of the turmoil.

That happen 14 of the staff members came over here for a international staff training and support, did not know what was going to happen.

They came over the Rex Lee in Kansas City right now, but an amazing thing happened at this conference, we have about 2,200 staff and their spouses gathered from all across the nation, including 14 from Ukraine, and two, from Russia, and on-stage.

Those ukrainians were on stage.

When we prayed over them.

And not only did we prayer from our Russian Ambassador.

Also prayed over them and with them.

And one of the there's very few moments that I feel that God just like completely humbles in a way that is so globally.

As a room of all of us, just were humbled by the prayer and love of Jesus.

That transcends all borders, transcends, all languages.

It was really cool.

Cuz I went to bootcamp actually with one of the Ukrainian staff and just leaving to talk to them and I was talking to some of the Dominican Republic and I realize I need to learn Spanish because I didn't know much English and it was really cool to see that even if we didn't speak the language, even if we weren't the same color, even if we really had nothing else in common, the commonality of Jesus Christ, being our Lord and savior transcends, all boundaries that can ever be done with an encouragement me over this last month and I wanted to share with you all as well.

Just to thank y'all for support.

Thank you for what you're doing for Ukraine.

Thank you for your prayers because it matters.

It matters, more than we can ever know, and it breaks my heart that we live in a broken world.

But because of the Brokenness God didn't leave us there after 1, it says that God created in the beginning, God created the heavens and the Earth and the Earth was without form and void and darkness was over the face of the deep.

In the spirit of God, was hovering over the face of the water and waste more than me have studied this verse in a taking this and do so deep into it.

That God in the Trinity was perfectly content, not needing.

But how does a desire to create?

They could have been content where they were for ever?

But I love the love and creativity that God had.

He's in begins to shape and form everything around us and it goes into creating time space and matter.

In the beginning, God created the heavens space in the earth in matter and he filled it goes on.

He begins to feel all of this and it was perfect.

There's no death.

There's no pain.
