I couldn't go another video without telling you the number one tool that has helped us reach 10,592 subscribers. It's this, the word of God. I started this YouTube channel because I felt called to. So, every time I make a video, every time I come up with an idea, every time I reply to a comment, I remember I'm doing this out of obedience and I'm finding a lot of joy doing it. But when I get to the spot of what video should I make? Should I make a video about Elmo or should I make a video about how to change a toilet seat? I have this scripture that's been in my mind for the last 10 years. It's Colossians 3:17. It says, "And whatever you do, whether in word or deed, do it all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through him." So, it doesn't matter if I make an Elmo video or how to change a toilet seat. It matters if I'm doing it in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father. These videos I'm making are trying to help people and I want to reach the people that God wants me to reach. And apparently, it's you right now if you're watching this video, probably for a reason I don't know about, but I trust that God is taking care of you, guiding you. So, if you're trying to grow your channel, reach more people, help more people, the most powerful tool you can use is the word of God. It's the best advice you will ever get. God bless you.
