They come no matter the rain or shine. When troubles come my way I just sing a gospel song Cause I may tremble on the rock but the rock just ain't strong Well I build my house upon the rock and that's where I abide I just stay real close to him and he's right by my side. When the waves seem so high, when the waves just seem so long, don't you know that the light may tremble on the rock, but the rock just stands strong. Well, there are days I feel I don't have a friend And I feel as if I've been friendless to the end But then I realize that I couldn't be more wrong Cause I may tremble on the rock, but the rock just stands strong. Well, I build my house up on the rock, and that's where I abide. I just stay real close to him, and he's right by my side. When the waves seem so high, the waves just seem so long. Don't you know that I've been trebled on the rock, but the rock just stands strong. Well, I build my house upon the rock, and that's where I abide. I just stayed real close to him and he's right by my side. When the waves seem so high, the waves just seem so long, don't you know that? Well, I may tremble on the ride, but the ride stays strong. Well I may tremble on the rock Oh I may tremble on the rock You know I may tremble on the rock Oh I may tremble on the rock But the rock just ain't strong Just ain't strong Rock-a-bye, baby In the treetops When the wind blows The cradle will rock And when the bow breaks The cradle will fall And down will come baby Cradle and all You know whoever wrote that song didn have all the oars in the water apparently I mean think about it Here you are sleeping and I singing to you about you swinging up in a treetop and the bough breaking and the cradle falling and you coming down to the earth. No wonder our youth are so messed up. Oh well, don't worry about it. You'll be alright. You know what? Grandma is home. Thank you, Jesus. And now I can go home too. Come on, little one. Let's get out of here. Yeah, see, who would have ever thought when Miss Gates said a huge favor that it would have meant taking care of a child? I've never done that before in my life. And let's be honest, I hope I never have to do it again. It was just insane. But you know what? The whole theme of this week for me is found in Colossians chapter 3 and verse 23 when it says, And whatsoever ye do, do it heartily as to the Lord and not to men. You know, do whatever you do for the glory of God so that God gets the glory. Not so that men get the glory. Not so that man will applaud you and say, wow, what a good job you did. You know, when I think of it, I think of the interesting prophet. The Israelite people, they were going through this thing where they wanted to follow the prophets of Baal. And the prophet, he came and he said, you know what, I want my people to follow God Jehovah. And so the prophet got an interesting idea together. He said, I'll tell you what, let us have a little competition. me and my people against you prophets of Baal and your people we'll have a little competition we'll build a couple of altars we'll set up those altars we'll pray to our gods and the one, the God that answers by fire that's the one we'll serve interestingly enough the prophet knew his God the prophets of Baal and not so much so the prophets of Baal they built their altar and he said go ahead Go ahead. You do your thing first. Go on. And so the prophets of Baal, they began to pray and moan and scream and began to cut themselves like crazy, trying to get their God to answer by fire. But their God, Baal, never answered by fire. Finally, interestingly enough, the prophet, he's having a little fun with them. He begins to joke with them a little bit. He says, hey, maybe your God's asleep. Hey, maybe your God went on vacation. Maybe he's indisposed. He just begins to heckle them like a guy on the front row heckling a comic. And he begins to heckle these prophets of Baal. And after he's had his fun, then he says, Okay, you've had your try. Now it's up to me. Now it's my turn. The prophet turned to his people, the Israeli people, and he said, Go get water. Saturate this altar. They began to saturate the altar with water. So that there was no doubt about it. The prophet prayed a very simple prayer. And God answered by fire. Let's make everything that we do count for God. Because truly, he's the only one that truly matters. Okay? Let's remember that. Well, that's about all the time I got this week for my video blog. But I want to remind you that we love you. But most importantly of all, remember God loves you. This is Pastor Jay saying goodbye. God bless. We'll see you next time right here on the video blog. Have a blessed, blessed week. Bye, everybody. But I'm the one who really cares So a day at a time No matter what's from my way I'm not giving up for it No matter what I ever say With the Lord at my side I'm never alone I'm destined to win So step by step I'll take it one day at a time. One day at a time. One day at a time. One day at a time. One day at a time.
