Introduction

Hello everyone, welcome to today's sermon. I'm so glad you're all here as we tackle the truths found in Genesis 30:18 & 49:14-15. Trusting God in difficult times, the traits of a man of valor, and God's faithfulness in fulfilling His promises - these are the themes that we will explore today.
