Father God, well, just thank

give you glory, for you alone
are worthy to be praised. Father.

14
00:01:42.560 --> 00:01:46.599
Forgive us of our sins known and
unknown, those that are in our subconscious

15
00:01:46.599 --> 00:01:49.760
and our unconscious, for those that
were spoken or unspoken or even thought of,

16
00:01:49.879 --> 00:01:53.480
Father God, and even our actions
today if they were not pleasing until

00:01:53.480 --> 00:01:57.920
you please forgive us, Father God, we pray for the incident. There's

well? That's good? That's good.

29
00:02:46.120 --> 00:02:50.879
I don't know why the Florida weather
is trying to play with us. It'll

30
00:02:50.919 --> 00:02:55.120
be nippy for a minute, a
minute, and then it's eighty two degrees.

31
00:02:55.360 --> 00:02:59.680
I don't understand that to save my
life, but I think it's going

00:03:08.840 --> 00:03:13.159
the garage and you gotta sweater on, and by the time you drive out

36
00:03:13.199 --> 00:03:15.599

We have one more Monday night in
the month of October, and it's over.

54
00:04:30.000 --> 00:04:33.240
It is literally over. So what
you did not get done? The

55
00:04:33.279 --> 00:04:39.560
pumpkins are in Sam's and Costco and
Publics and CBS, so go get you

56
00:04:39.560 --> 00:04:42.680
a pumpkin if you need to whatever, if you like the pumpkin pie,

57
00:04:42.839 --> 00:04:46.319
pumpkin tater, whatever, that pumpkin
spice drink, whatever it is. You

58
00:04:46.360 --> 00:04:49.120
know, go get your pumpkin and
go carb it up and have a good

59
00:04:49.160 --> 00:04:54.279
time. The pumpkins are out and
the CBS. I saw my miniature black

60
00:04:54.319 --> 00:04:57.480
Santa Claus, so I'm gonna go
back and get the ones and I'm taking

61
00:04:57.519 --> 00:05:00.360
them over to the office. Yeah, the Santa Claus is out as well

62
00:05:00.360 --> 00:05:03.720
as CBS. So all the holidays
are all right. Now I'm waiting for

63
00:05:03.800 --> 00:05:10.079
Christmas. Just the moment November first
hit, we will have Christmas Aisle at

64
00:05:10.120 --> 00:05:15.439
CBS. They never let me down. Never let me down. So how

65
00:05:15.560 --> 00:05:18.759
was your week this week? Everybody
out there and viewership land, we need

66
00:05:18.800 --> 00:05:25.680
to hear from you as of today, me in this household fed provided ten

67
00:05:25.759 --> 00:05:30.879
meals and fed twelve meals. And
we fed ten people because one man said,

68
00:05:30.920 --> 00:05:32.439
I will eat it all. He
said, you know what, here

69
00:05:32.480 --> 00:05:35.480
you go, here you go,
God bless. He didn't even look in

70
00:05:35.519 --> 00:05:39.279
the bag. I'll eat it all. Eat whatever you got for me.

71
00:05:39.480 --> 00:05:41.439
So here, I said, dog, give him the rest of the two

72
00:05:41.480 --> 00:05:44.120
bags. There we go. Let's
take it home. Haller in lou YAHK.

73
00:05:44.519 --> 00:05:47.560
But I got to tell you the
story about the backstory behind getting the

74
00:05:47.600 --> 00:05:53.040
bags ready. Well, I went
over to It was in my spirit to

75
00:05:53.040 --> 00:05:57.040
go to sands because we were going
to do sandwiches, cold cut sandwiches on

76
00:05:57.120 --> 00:06:00.120
little Hawaiian rolls. Okay, so
with men, we're gonna get to the

77
00:06:00.120 --> 00:06:03.279
top. It's all about hunger anyway, So just I'm gonna get there.

78
00:06:03.319 --> 00:06:06.079
But anyway, so we go,
and I'm like, I wonder if I

79
00:06:06.120 --> 00:06:10.120
had text Tommy to see if they
if she was aware, if they still

80
00:06:10.519 --> 00:06:14.920
had the one day visit. You
can go in for free on the day

81
00:06:14.920 --> 00:06:16.800
as a visitor, as a guest, and she wasn't sure. So I

82
00:06:16.800 --> 00:06:19.040
was like, well, probably by
now, I'm saying to myself, it's

83
00:06:19.040 --> 00:06:25.360
probably gone. Those those generosity days
are gone. We don't have people being

84
00:06:25.560 --> 00:06:29.120
generous city boy. So went in. People were very nice. I went

85
00:06:29.160 --> 00:06:32.079
up to the front desk. The
young man who let you in, he's

86
00:06:32.160 --> 00:06:34.519
like, I don't know what you're
I said, that's okay, son,

87
00:06:34.560 --> 00:06:36.800
you're too young. That's all right. That this is twenty years ago.

88
00:06:36.839 --> 00:06:40.439
They used to let us come in
for free on her for day one.

89
00:06:40.519 --> 00:06:43.519
That's okay, bless us a little
hard confused the heck out of him and

90
00:06:43.600 --> 00:06:46.959
scared him too. But anyway,
I got to this young lady, asked

91
00:06:47.000 --> 00:06:49.959
the questions and she goes, no, unfortunately, don't do that anymore.

92
00:06:50.759 --> 00:06:55.399
I said, okay, so what's
your basic membership? And so she was

93
00:06:55.480 --> 00:07:00.759
telling me for the year, it's
one hundred and ten dollars and I said,

94
00:07:00.759 --> 00:07:04.399
well, okay, okay. So
I said, well I have a

95
00:07:04.439 --> 00:07:09.600
business or nonprofit because I was looking
at some signage, and I said,

96
00:07:09.639 --> 00:07:12.279
so what do I have to bring
in for that? And so she said,

97
00:07:12.279 --> 00:07:14.199
well, you'd have to bring in
the paperwork. I said, okay,

98
00:07:14.319 --> 00:07:15.519
you know, just for today.
I'll be a regular member. Then

99
00:07:15.519 --> 00:07:18.000
I can always switch it later.
She goes yeah. I said okay,

100
00:07:18.120 --> 00:07:23.079
because all I was going in there
for was the little condiment packets. They

101
00:07:23.199 --> 00:07:28.240
used to have, the little maya
mayonnaise and the mustard condiment packets. That's

102
00:07:28.279 --> 00:07:30.839
all I was doing because I'm not
putting a mustard on nobody. I don't

103
00:07:30.839 --> 00:07:33.120
know what you're allergic to today.
You may be allergic to the mayonnaise.

104
00:07:33.160 --> 00:07:36.920
You could be allergic to the plastic
knife that I used to put the mayonnaise

105
00:07:36.959 --> 00:07:41.279
on. So I'm not doing that. You can dress your own sandwich.

106
00:07:41.360 --> 00:07:44.639
So so since we were in there, I said, well let's look around

107
00:07:44.879 --> 00:07:46.879
and stuff. And Donna, my
oldest, had never been. He don't

108
00:07:46.879 --> 00:07:49.279
remember being in a Sam's or a
Costco. So he looked around, said

109
00:07:49.279 --> 00:07:51.199
well, do't this walk around?
We got time. I have nothing but

110
00:07:51.279 --> 00:07:55.879
time today. So God is so
good. So I go over to the

111
00:07:55.959 --> 00:08:00.000
Delhi area. Finally find it,
found it, find it, and I'm

112
00:08:00.000 --> 00:08:03.279
I'm looking down and I'm like God, two packages of two pounds of cold

113
00:08:03.279 --> 00:08:07.439
cut meat. Man that. Then
I got to go get the cheese.

114
00:08:07.560 --> 00:08:11.879
Then I got to go see if
they got Hawaiian bread. And I'm like,

115
00:08:11.000 --> 00:08:16.040
you know what this, this is
kind of hm. I'm not thinking

116
00:08:16.160 --> 00:08:20.839
smart right now. For some reason, I'm saying I'm not thinking smart.

117
00:08:20.240 --> 00:08:26.879
God is awesome. I looked over
next bend was the lunchables. It's got

118
00:08:26.879 --> 00:08:30.240
the cold cut, it's got the
crackers, it's got the cheese, and

119
00:08:30.360 --> 00:08:33.559
it's got this. Iert, there
you go, all right, I can

120
00:08:33.639 --> 00:08:37.240
do this. I'll get the waters. Then my son reminded m reminded me.

121
00:08:37.279 --> 00:08:39.720
No, we just got the huggy
juices at the house. I said,

122
00:08:41.320 --> 00:08:43.000
you're smart, you're smart. Give
them something a little, you know,

123
00:08:43.039 --> 00:08:46.039
a little sugar in it. That's
good, all right. And it

124
00:08:46.120 --> 00:08:52.200
was cheaper. And that lunchibles was
six in a pack. So our target

125
00:08:52.279 --> 00:08:54.159
number was twelve. Okay, because
it's four of us in the house,

126
00:08:54.159 --> 00:08:58.799
as three four times three equals twelve, so there we go. I was

127
00:08:58.840 --> 00:09:01.639
so happy. But we did found
find the condiment and they only have the

128
00:09:01.720 --> 00:09:05.440
mayonnaise. They don't have the mustard
anymore. They only have the mayonnaise in

129
00:09:05.480 --> 00:09:09.080
the box as a condiment packet.
I was like, okay, two hundred

130
00:09:09.080 --> 00:09:09.919
of nose. No, I don't
think I need to get them today.

131
00:09:09.960 --> 00:09:13.039
Thank you anyway, because I was
really disappointed. I was like, wait

132
00:09:13.039 --> 00:09:16.799
a minute, come on, you
can't be that far away from I know,

133
00:09:16.159 --> 00:09:20.480
restaurants, and you know people still
shop here in bulk and need those

134
00:09:20.559 --> 00:09:22.879
types of things and you know stuff. I mean, you should seen the

135
00:09:22.919 --> 00:09:28.120
baskets. So anyway, when we
walked in donald of course sparks spots the

136
00:09:28.120 --> 00:09:33.320
food court, and I said,
you're hungry. You're hungry up there.

137
00:09:33.519 --> 00:09:35.919
He said, yeah, I'm a
little I said, okay, I'll tell

138
00:09:35.960 --> 00:09:39.039
you what I think. They have
hot dogs and pizza. That's all they

139
00:09:39.080 --> 00:09:41.120
got, now, he said,
that's all they got, so oh yeah,

140
00:09:41.159 --> 00:09:43.240
that's all they got is go be
all right. Now. We could

141
00:09:43.279 --> 00:09:46.159
go someplace else afterwards, but let's
get you a little hot dog. Okay.

142
00:09:46.559 --> 00:09:50.039
We get up there, lying all
along and everything, and then this

143
00:09:50.159 --> 00:09:52.759
lady's behind us and she's truck.
She's yelling at her son and the daughter

144
00:09:52.759 --> 00:09:56.919
in law and the grand shot on
the floor and she's standing behind me and

145
00:09:56.960 --> 00:09:58.840
I'm like, okay, she's right
up behind me. I mean, if

146
00:09:58.840 --> 00:10:01.519
I did this to write out anyway, so she you know, I had

147
00:10:01.559 --> 00:10:03.600
to just come up with a little
call. I says that your grand daddy,

148
00:10:03.639 --> 00:10:05.679
Yes, say is can't you tell
y'all? I was like, okay,

149
00:10:05.720 --> 00:10:09.279
all right, all right? So
yeah they were wild, they were

150
00:10:09.279 --> 00:10:13.639
loose. They were loose, so
sad. So anyway, I get up

151
00:10:13.639 --> 00:10:16.799
to the vent to the cashier and
I said, I may have two hot

152
00:10:16.799 --> 00:10:18.759
dogs. He said, I'm sorry, man, but we are out as

153
00:10:18.759 --> 00:10:22.159
you see our machine. I'm like, well, what is he talking about?

154
00:10:22.480 --> 00:10:24.480
The hot dog machine was out.
I said, well, don't you

155
00:10:24.480 --> 00:10:26.559
think you need to put up a
sign because I'm pretty sure over half these

156
00:10:26.559 --> 00:10:30.320
people and I knew the lady behind
me was a hot dog too, And

157
00:10:30.399 --> 00:10:31.279
I said, shouldn't you put up
a side said, you know what,

158
00:10:31.399 --> 00:10:35.159
none of my business. Okay,
I take two slices of cheese beeza,

159
00:10:35.240 --> 00:10:37.480
thank you, and two drinks.
Two drinks please, and that's it,

160
00:10:37.559 --> 00:10:41.639
thank you. I said, dog, come get this, and my baby

161
00:10:41.679 --> 00:10:45.840
did. The man it's like,
oh hi, okay, huh. So

162
00:10:45.879 --> 00:10:48.600
we ate first and then we walked
it off, you know. So that's

163
00:10:48.600 --> 00:10:50.919
what you do now when you're going
shopping, you know, go get something

164
00:10:50.960 --> 00:10:54.120
to eat or have your breakfast,
then you go walk it off. Okay,

165
00:10:54.200 --> 00:10:58.360
don't don't do it opposite, because
then you get sleepy by the time

166
00:10:58.440 --> 00:11:01.679
you get behind the wheel trying to
go home. So just walk it off.

167
00:11:01.679 --> 00:11:05.519
Come on, let's you some sens
here. Let's be wiser this year.

168
00:11:05.600 --> 00:11:11.159
This seas it. Let's be a
little while. So anyway, we

169
00:11:11.200 --> 00:11:13.279
did that, and oh, getting
back to come in. So it was

170
00:11:13.279 --> 00:11:18.519
supposed to be one hundred and ten
dollars, and then she looked it up

171
00:11:18.519 --> 00:11:20.759
and my company was in there.
That's from over fifteen years ago. It

172
00:11:20.799 --> 00:11:24.639
had to be like when I first
start. It kind of moved up here.

173
00:11:24.000 --> 00:11:28.240
Anyway, so she said, oh, well today is only gonna be

174
00:11:28.240 --> 00:11:31.840
sixty five dollars. I said,
okay, I could take that. That's

175
00:11:31.840 --> 00:11:33.360
good. And then she goes okay, and then Donalds like, Mom,

176
00:11:33.440 --> 00:11:35.559
don't you think that's a little bit
too much money? And I said,

177
00:11:35.559 --> 00:11:37.879
oh, you need to hush,
you need to hush. Okay, I

178
00:11:37.919 --> 00:11:45.879
got this. You ain't paying for
nothing. Okay. Anyway, and God

179
00:11:45.919 --> 00:11:48.919
blessed. By the time she finished, she said it was fifty five dollars.

180
00:11:50.320 --> 00:11:52.320
I said, God, you just
I said what And I'm standing and

181
00:11:52.320 --> 00:11:56.759
I'm like, what you're gonna do? What you're gonna do today? And

182
00:11:56.799 --> 00:12:00.240
that's before we went and did shopping
So that was how my day. And

183
00:12:00.279 --> 00:12:03.120
then we came home, we got
the bags together and things like that.

184
00:12:03.159 --> 00:12:07.039
In between yesterday and today, we
completed our task. So please, if

185
00:12:07.080 --> 00:12:11.440
you are out there, what had
memberships of fifteen dollars? Where was that,

186
00:12:11.480 --> 00:12:13.159
Missy? He was that in the
United States? Is that in the

187
00:12:13.320 --> 00:12:18.679
United States? My family that was
living in their band driving through Mississippi this

188
00:12:18.759 --> 00:12:24.279
weekend? All right, corner Country
corners, Thank you, thank you.

189
00:12:24.720 --> 00:12:26.679
All right, we'll take it.
I gave some food to a group in

190
00:12:26.720 --> 00:12:30.360
the park this week, Missy.
We take it. We'll take it.

191
00:12:30.399 --> 00:12:33.600
We'll take it. Thank you so
much. Thank you for reporting that.

192
00:12:33.080 --> 00:12:35.919
Thank you. And I was just
passing it on to other people. People

193
00:12:35.919 --> 00:12:39.559
are like, oh wow, I
can do that. Go for it,

194
00:12:39.080 --> 00:12:41.759
just go for it. You know, you never know. We were already

195
00:12:41.840 --> 00:12:46.279
being blessed. We're already being blessed. And I'm telling you, it's just

196
00:12:46.360 --> 00:12:52.679
it's amazing. So and to see
how many people were hungry, whether they

197
00:12:52.720 --> 00:12:58.639
were homeless or not, they were
hungry. And I think we now,

198
00:12:58.080 --> 00:13:01.600
yes, in Louisiana and on the
line, I think, okay, wow,

199
00:13:01.840 --> 00:13:07.720
in Louisiana, Okay, we got
to differentiate. It taught me a

200
00:13:07.759 --> 00:13:13.279
big lesson because I'm always calling the
homeless and I'm gonna feed the homeless.

201
00:13:13.919 --> 00:13:20.000
But not everybody is hungry. That's
homeless. And those who are hungry aren't

202
00:13:20.639 --> 00:13:26.519
homeless. They they're content. They
made up their minds how they're gonna live,

203
00:13:26.600 --> 00:13:30.679
how they're gonna what their survival plan, survival plan is, so we

204
00:13:30.799 --> 00:13:33.960
have to honor that. So I
would just say ask. I asked the

205
00:13:33.000 --> 00:13:35.440
folks, and I tell the kids, say are you hungry today? Would

206
00:13:35.440 --> 00:13:39.960
you like something to eat? And
say God bless you. And many people

207
00:13:39.960 --> 00:13:41.879
were looking at me in the car
and waving their hands and saying thank you

208
00:13:41.919 --> 00:13:46.559
and motioning to their heart. So
you just never know what people you know,

209
00:13:48.039 --> 00:13:50.919
And God just told us to do
it for this moment. He may

210
00:13:50.960 --> 00:13:54.759
tell us and when November rolls over, because there's you know, he may

211
00:13:54.799 --> 00:13:58.759
sell us again to do something like
this because this is where it's at.

212
00:14:00.039 --> 00:14:03.759
Put the Daily Word in my bags
as well, and uh so they can

213
00:14:03.840 --> 00:14:07.039
read scripture, they can reach stories. If you if you're not familiar with

214
00:14:07.080 --> 00:14:11.639
the Daily Word. It's a little
booklets. This is a little little booklet

215
00:14:11.679 --> 00:14:16.960
like a four by eight and it's
it's stories and testimonies and and there's scriptures

216
00:14:16.960 --> 00:14:20.360
in there to encourage you, so
just so they can have something to read

217
00:14:20.399 --> 00:14:22.639
and to encourage them. And but
we met more people that are living out

218
00:14:22.639 --> 00:14:28.360
of their cars. We really did, We really did. So you know,

219
00:14:28.559 --> 00:14:33.639
people are making decisions and you know, whether it's what they need to

220
00:14:33.639 --> 00:14:35.440
do or not, whether they can't
go any further, but they're trying to

221
00:14:35.480 --> 00:14:41.919
survive. And I applaud the survivors. I applaud the survivors. We also

222
00:14:43.039 --> 00:14:45.480
the kids and I went to the
movies. We went to see The Creator,

223
00:14:46.360 --> 00:14:54.480
The Creator with Denzel Washington sons as
a star in that one eye opener

224
00:14:54.480 --> 00:15:01.080
with concerning AI. And I'm telling
you, it's worth the sea, catch

225
00:15:01.120 --> 00:15:05.159
a matinee, get your small back
of popcorn and some drink, and it's

226
00:15:05.200 --> 00:15:09.879
worth it. It's really worth it. It's really an eye opener. My

227
00:15:11.240 --> 00:15:16.200
view on I don't how do I
say? We were able to feed a

228
00:15:16.240 --> 00:15:18.240
man and his daughter. Hey,
Mickey, thank you for joining on Saturday

229
00:15:18.240 --> 00:15:24.279
and a woman on Friday who yes, thank you, thank you, appreciate

230
00:15:24.360 --> 00:15:28.600
you, amen, and God bless
each and every one of you. We

231
00:15:28.720 --> 00:15:31.720
have a heart to do it.
Even if you say, just like Misty

232
00:15:31.720 --> 00:15:35.080
in the beginning said I didn't have
money to feed somebody, but I provided

233
00:15:35.080 --> 00:15:39.240
blankets, and I provided this provision. And that's hearing the voice of the

234
00:15:39.279 --> 00:15:41.960
Lord, because we don't know everything
that person may need. One man did

235
00:15:43.039 --> 00:15:45.720
refuse it. He said, no, I'm okay, I'm okay, but

236
00:15:45.840 --> 00:15:48.559
thank you. He refused, you
know, and we were fine, ain't

237
00:15:48.600 --> 00:15:50.559
gonna force it on you. We're
fine, but I appreciate you being honest.

238
00:15:50.919 --> 00:15:54.399
He didn't need it. He could
have taken it, he could have

239
00:15:54.440 --> 00:15:56.600
done anything with it, but he
declined. He said no, but thank

240
00:15:56.639 --> 00:16:02.240
you anyway, you know, and
we appreciate that. And that's where I

241
00:16:02.240 --> 00:16:06.039
would hope we would get to just
to be sensitive enough to people that are

242
00:16:06.080 --> 00:16:08.720
around us. We're not to get
into folks lives and get into folks business,

243
00:16:10.080 --> 00:16:12.240
but be sensitive. I don't know
if this is your last day.

244
00:16:12.720 --> 00:16:17.000
I don't know what your thoughts are
for today. I don't know if you're

245
00:16:17.039 --> 00:16:21.200
gonna be like the woman in the
Bible who had just enough oil the baker

246
00:16:21.279 --> 00:16:23.840
cake for her and her son,
and she was already saying, well,

247
00:16:23.960 --> 00:16:27.159
in her mind, we will die
after this. I have nothing else.

248
00:16:27.360 --> 00:16:30.919
But here comes the man of God
saying, can you make me a meal

249
00:16:32.240 --> 00:16:33.919
out of your oil? And she
said, Sir, I would like to

250
00:16:33.919 --> 00:16:37.320
do. I was just gonna fix
this for me and myself. I have

251
00:16:37.399 --> 00:16:38.879
no more. He said, no, you take that bass, you take

252
00:16:38.919 --> 00:16:41.720
your bucket over there, and you
go get you some oil. And the

253
00:16:41.840 --> 00:16:47.240
oil just came in, just came
in from everywhere. You just know when

254
00:16:47.240 --> 00:16:51.399
you're entertaining a person of God in
your midst, in your presence. All

255
00:16:51.440 --> 00:16:55.480
he said was go fill back to
with oil. And she had more than

256
00:16:55.559 --> 00:16:59.879
enough at all that she could sell
so that her and her son could eat

257
00:16:59.879 --> 00:17:03.960
it another day. These people that
we're gonna touch, they can eat another

258
00:17:03.079 --> 00:17:08.359
day, they can eat another day. The prayers, and you don't have

259
00:17:08.400 --> 00:17:11.240
to stand there and witness to them
and disciple them. That's not what this

260
00:17:11.359 --> 00:17:15.759
is called for. Be obedient,
you go some of us go overboard.

261
00:17:15.799 --> 00:17:18.559
God said, no, I just
told you to feed them. I tell

262
00:17:18.559 --> 00:17:22.079
you to bring him to the house. I can tell you that, I

263
00:17:22.240 --> 00:17:26.599
tell you to just feed him,
feed her. Or you could be driving

264
00:17:26.680 --> 00:17:30.759
by and see somebody got say pray
for him. You ain't got to pull

265
00:17:30.839 --> 00:17:33.960
over and on. Don't go overboard
on this, Come on, listen to

266
00:17:34.000 --> 00:17:37.119
the voice of the Lord. Do
what he's instructing us to do, because

267
00:17:37.160 --> 00:17:44.759
you really want God to trust you, You really want him to trust you

268
00:17:45.880 --> 00:17:49.000
with his people. And that's a
lot. And I'm not calling you to

269
00:17:49.039 --> 00:17:52.440
be in the pool pit. I'm
not calling you to down your missionary robe

270
00:17:52.519 --> 00:17:56.720
to the ground and everything and having
the rope chan hanging off and something you

271
00:17:56.839 --> 00:18:00.319
looking deep in the cross about to
drag it down. I'm not talking about

272
00:18:00.319 --> 00:18:03.759
that. I'm talking about you living
holy, you being holy, and you

273
00:18:03.839 --> 00:18:07.559
all are good people, your good
people, you have good intentions. And

274
00:18:07.720 --> 00:18:11.000
yes, we're all catching it.
We're all catching it. I got to

275
00:18:11.079 --> 00:18:14.440
watch my kids go through things.
We're all catching it in one way or

276
00:18:14.480 --> 00:18:19.039
the other. But I'm hopeful.
I know that there's a God that sits

277
00:18:19.119 --> 00:18:23.079
high and looks low. He is
listening. He knows and get this,

278
00:18:23.160 --> 00:18:29.480
if you could get this. He
knows everything. He knows the very day

279
00:18:29.599 --> 00:18:33.640
you decide that you're going to decide, this is it for me. I'm

280
00:18:33.680 --> 00:18:37.000
gonna go to work today, I'm
gonna work my last day and this is

281
00:18:37.039 --> 00:18:41.559
it. I can't take it anymore. He knows the very hour. What

282
00:18:41.640 --> 00:18:47.039
he's waiting on is if you trust
him. And I think I shared with

283
00:18:47.079 --> 00:18:52.160
you last week about praying without ceasing, praying without ceasing, how long do

284
00:18:52.200 --> 00:18:55.440
you pray about a thing? Well, unto if I only got it.

285
00:18:55.480 --> 00:19:00.000
The revelation is until you believe he
gonna do it, until you believe he's

286
00:19:00.039 --> 00:19:04.559
gonna do it. And I lived
that every day. I live it every

287
00:19:04.640 --> 00:19:10.440
day. So you know, we're
talking about hunger and and people, and

288
00:19:10.480 --> 00:19:14.359
there's different types of hunger. There's
that physical hunger where people don't know where

289
00:19:14.359 --> 00:19:18.920
their next meal is gonna come from. There's that physical hunger. Then there's

290
00:19:18.000 --> 00:19:22.400
that relational hunger. There are people
who don't have the relationships they want.

291
00:19:22.599 --> 00:19:29.559
They've outlived everybody, and there's that
hunger like I want to have a friend,

292
00:19:29.599 --> 00:19:30.799
I want. I mean, I
have run into a couple of people

293
00:19:30.920 --> 00:19:34.200
like you know, I'm lonely out
here. I'm by myself, you know,

294
00:19:34.400 --> 00:19:37.559
because God has had the tear.
Divide the week from the tear,

295
00:19:38.839 --> 00:19:42.720
because everybody can't be with us going
into this next season. Can't. They

296
00:19:42.759 --> 00:19:45.240
won't. They can't survive it.
They won't. They're not supposed to be

297
00:19:45.319 --> 00:19:49.200
there. They've been heavyweights all along
and you didn't know it. They've been

298
00:19:49.240 --> 00:19:52.559
dead weight and you didn't know it. So you have to let them go

299
00:19:53.319 --> 00:19:56.480
so that we can be about the
kingdom. And God is gonna take care

300
00:19:56.480 --> 00:20:02.680
of his people. He's gonna take
care of you anym. That's what the

301
00:20:02.799 --> 00:20:06.559
enemy don't realize. These people out
here who choose to not believe in God

302
00:20:06.640 --> 00:20:08.839
and treat you any kind of way. They really they've never read the word.

303
00:20:08.960 --> 00:20:14.119
They you could just read one scripture. Know you you're doomed. If

304
00:20:14.200 --> 00:20:18.160
I touch this lady, if I
say something about this gentleman, and I

305
00:20:18.359 --> 00:20:22.240
know that they believe in this God
of theirs, I'm gonna be in trouble.

306
00:20:22.200 --> 00:20:26.319
So they've not studied nothing to understand
that. And all I said this

307
00:20:26.559 --> 00:20:30.160
the last forty eight hours, I
made a power move last week. Woll

308
00:20:30.200 --> 00:20:37.599
be unto them. W'll be unto
the enemies because God, you could,

309
00:20:37.680 --> 00:20:41.240
And God said, I'll take it
from here. I got him. I

310
00:20:41.279 --> 00:20:45.200
got him. I got him.
So we just give God praise. So

311
00:20:45.640 --> 00:20:49.440
yeah, just continue you having to
next Tuesday, that's the end of the

312
00:20:49.440 --> 00:20:53.799
month, the thirty first that continue
doing your home. You could go beyond

313
00:20:53.839 --> 00:20:56.920
three. You don't have to.
You know, whatever God's laying on your

314
00:20:56.960 --> 00:21:02.799
heart go for it. I'm telling
you, it's just God is just already

315
00:21:02.839 --> 00:21:06.799
blessing and please, you know,
do what you can what's in your heart

316
00:21:06.839 --> 00:21:08.799
and everything. We've got November coming
up, and I want to say this,

317
00:21:08.839 --> 00:21:14.920
and then I'm gonna divert to the
ladies. There we are. Our

318
00:21:14.960 --> 00:21:19.680
anniversary will be February of twenty twenty
four, February fourteenth, and I've already

319
00:21:19.720 --> 00:21:23.039
gotten to be I have to be
thinking about whether we're gonna continue on.

320
00:21:23.720 --> 00:21:26.559
So we need to hear from y'all. Okay, we need to hear from

321
00:21:26.640 --> 00:21:29.759
y'all. That's what God said,
put it out there to the audience.

322
00:21:30.039 --> 00:21:33.440
So we need to hear from you
in one way, shape or form if

323
00:21:33.440 --> 00:21:36.519
we need to, if you like
us to continue, and then what kind

324
00:21:36.559 --> 00:21:41.359
of topics We're not unlimited here,
what kind of topics? What is it

325
00:21:41.359 --> 00:21:44.319
that you want to talk about?
You know? And if you don't want

326
00:21:44.319 --> 00:21:48.440
to say it on the message board, now you can inbox us, inbox

327
00:21:48.519 --> 00:21:51.279
me, you know, Lisia Gray
or setting it straight when Miss Gray is

328
00:21:51.319 --> 00:21:55.839
on as well on Facebook, you
could do put a message in YouTube or

329
00:21:55.839 --> 00:22:00.240
wherever you're watching us or hearing us
from. We need to hear from you,

330
00:22:00.720 --> 00:22:03.960
because we could talk all day.
We're social workers. I mean we

331
00:22:03.960 --> 00:22:06.799
could talk all We can out talk
people that trusts me. I told the

332
00:22:06.880 --> 00:22:08.160
doctor I could out talk to you. You do know that. I hope

333
00:22:08.160 --> 00:22:11.880
you know that. I'mazola's worker.
I'm trained to do that. You know.

334
00:22:11.880 --> 00:22:15.839
I'm trained to ask questions. There's
very few people I will give them

335
00:22:15.000 --> 00:22:19.279
the power to stop me and to
interrupt me. This show has made me

336
00:22:19.319 --> 00:22:26.079
a different country. Corners, we're
gonna have to do a field trip or

337
00:22:26.079 --> 00:22:27.400
come meet you, or you got
to come to Orlando. God, oh

338
00:22:27.440 --> 00:22:32.759
my God, God bless you.
God, bless you, God bless you.

339
00:22:32.799 --> 00:22:37.039
Well you were ready for change country. See, it's not about it's

340
00:22:37.039 --> 00:22:40.799
not about the input. It's not
about the stimulus. It's about are you

341
00:22:40.960 --> 00:22:44.960
ready for something different? Are you
ready to change? You don't like the

342
00:22:45.000 --> 00:22:48.359
way life has been, the hand
that you've been dealt. Okay, say

343
00:22:48.359 --> 00:22:49.799
you know what, this is what
I don't like. I don't like this,

344
00:22:49.880 --> 00:22:52.200
I don't like that, I don't
like her, I don't like this,

345
00:22:52.279 --> 00:22:56.359
I don't like that. And as
long as it's not hurting anybody else,

346
00:22:56.359 --> 00:23:00.880
God help you changing. But you
got the got to be willing to

347
00:23:00.000 --> 00:23:03.720
change, so you were ready for
something different. You are ready, I

348
00:23:03.720 --> 00:23:07.839
think differently hearing things you ladies said
on the show, Thank you, thank

349
00:23:07.880 --> 00:23:11.680
you, sir, you know,
but this is what's setting it straight.

350
00:23:11.799 --> 00:23:17.720
Is all about undoing the myths,
the mistruths, the misinformation. And let's

351
00:23:17.720 --> 00:23:21.000
talk this out and let's see how
many of you would agree with what we

352
00:23:21.079 --> 00:23:23.400
have to say. We come from
three different backgrounds, but yet we are

353
00:23:23.519 --> 00:23:27.480
very much similar, you know,
And the more I'm one of you know,

354
00:23:27.960 --> 00:23:32.200
one of our common ground is we
want other people to be better.

355
00:23:32.559 --> 00:23:34.839
We want we would love to have
a hand in that, you know,

356
00:23:34.960 --> 00:23:38.079
to make you better. But we're
not doing all the work. We're not

357
00:23:38.160 --> 00:23:41.519
doing and most of the time we
tell you something. The teaching is a

358
00:23:41.519 --> 00:23:45.200
two way street. I've taught on
the college level, I've taught on the

359
00:23:45.200 --> 00:23:48.960
post secondary level. I've taught on
the high school level. Teaching is a

360
00:23:48.000 --> 00:23:52.400
two way street. Yes, while
I come with information, I leave.

361
00:23:52.519 --> 00:23:57.440
I would lead every session, every
night, every semester with information that made

362
00:23:57.519 --> 00:24:02.680
me a whole different person. Our
kid you not a kid, you not?

363
00:24:02.839 --> 00:24:04.400
And it made me a better person. You got to be open for

364
00:24:04.559 --> 00:24:18.759
change, You got to be open
for change ladies your turn. Wooo oh

365
00:24:18.960 --> 00:24:22.000
man, It's just I don't know
what it is. I'm just I'm just

366
00:24:22.000 --> 00:24:27.720
on a cloud today. And so
and I really do appreciate you again,

367
00:24:27.839 --> 00:24:32.400
Lisha, Tommy, and the guests
that we have, you know, the

368
00:24:32.480 --> 00:24:37.880
participants. It makes a world of
difference. And so and being transparent,

369
00:24:37.039 --> 00:24:41.440
you know, like you said,
we're learning, you know, and then

370
00:24:41.880 --> 00:24:48.400
through our dialogue, we're processing and
finding answers and solutions to whatever situations are

371
00:24:48.440 --> 00:24:52.039
going on. And you know,
we're human. We heard, we bleed,

372
00:24:52.079 --> 00:24:56.400
we cry, we all of the
above. But the good thing about

373
00:24:56.440 --> 00:25:00.160
it, we have each other and
the platfor form and the and the and

374
00:25:00.200 --> 00:25:04.920
the persons that you know are in
our support circles to talk to, and

375
00:25:04.960 --> 00:25:10.200
so that makes a big difference,
like you said, and Rebel, she

376
00:25:10.359 --> 00:25:15.240
keeps us going. Rebel girl,
you're a beast. I tell you you

377
00:25:15.599 --> 00:25:19.079
make us look good. I tell
you look good, sound good. And

378
00:25:19.480 --> 00:25:25.079
we just appreciate all that you do
and and keeping us together. And I

379
00:25:25.200 --> 00:25:30.000
just pray that folks will will will
will, you know, want to see

380
00:25:30.079 --> 00:25:33.480
us. You know, next year
that'll be what two years now, Lisha

381
00:25:33.640 --> 00:25:38.319
two three? Two years. On
February fourteenth, and I'm excited about it,

382
00:25:38.759 --> 00:25:45.279
and hopefully we'll have more people that
will access you know, our stream,

383
00:25:45.519 --> 00:25:48.359
our you know, you know,
setting it straight. But I'm just

384
00:25:48.400 --> 00:25:52.200
at a loss for words. I
just feel so good, you know,

385
00:25:52.359 --> 00:25:56.119
I you know, life could be
a whole lot different, and we're just

386
00:25:56.279 --> 00:26:00.480
all a step away from you know, the peopeople that we're helping. We're

387
00:26:00.519 --> 00:26:03.440
all to step away. Life happens, and could we could be right there

388
00:26:03.440 --> 00:26:08.319
tomorrow, you know, so we
never know. Oh wow, I wish

389
00:26:08.400 --> 00:26:12.000
I could have found this show sooner. Yeah, but that's okay. Now

390
00:26:12.039 --> 00:26:15.680
you found us. You keep this
train rolling that this is what you want

391
00:26:15.680 --> 00:26:21.160
to see us, do you know, Please continue to watch and and and

392
00:26:21.160 --> 00:26:23.720
and let other people know about us. We like to know what we're doing.

393
00:26:25.240 --> 00:26:27.400
I think we're doing well, you
know. I know, Lisha and

394
00:26:27.400 --> 00:26:33.079
and Tommy and rounded in the world. They're bringing me along to I'm grounded,

395
00:26:33.160 --> 00:26:37.319
but they at a different they at
a different level. I'm slowly catching

396
00:26:37.400 --> 00:26:40.799
up. But I definitely believe,
you know, God is at the center

397
00:26:40.839 --> 00:26:44.480
of my life. Without him,
I could do nothing and be nothing.

398
00:26:44.559 --> 00:26:49.160
And so I'm just glad for the
opportunity and I'm looking forward to what the

399
00:26:49.200 --> 00:27:06.440
rest of this year brings. Thank
you birthday girl. How they say it's

400
00:27:06.599 --> 00:27:14.000
great to be in good company,
and so often it's so easy to be

401
00:27:14.240 --> 00:27:21.440
in the own company. It's very
easy. So I don't mind giving up

402
00:27:21.480 --> 00:27:27.119
my time on Mondays to talk in
the country, talking to Miss z you

403
00:27:27.160 --> 00:27:33.000
know, having Rebel with our back, Miss Gray doing the things she do,

404
00:27:33.799 --> 00:27:41.480
and just sharing, just sharing.
And that's what more people need to

405
00:27:41.559 --> 00:27:47.400
do, is to share. We
even offer you as our audience to come

406
00:27:47.440 --> 00:27:52.000
in and share so we can know
what, like you say, what's on

407
00:27:52.079 --> 00:27:56.680
your mind, what's going on around
you? How can we pray for you?

408
00:27:56.480 --> 00:28:00.680
What can we pray for you?
And what you believe in it,

409
00:28:00.000 --> 00:28:03.920
so that if those things agree with
us, we in agreement with you.

410
00:28:04.480 --> 00:28:11.559
Where they say where if one,
if two get together, put five thousand,

411
00:28:11.960 --> 00:28:15.759
what's the difference. What a difference
it would make if the three of

412
00:28:15.880 --> 00:28:22.240
us and others come in agreement with
you to make that come to pass.

413
00:28:22.720 --> 00:28:27.759
You know, nothing is impossible for
God. Sometimes we think about trying them,

414
00:28:27.759 --> 00:28:33.519
but we don't always try, and
we don't we hold on instead of

415
00:28:33.599 --> 00:28:37.119
letting go and letting him take care
of it, because He tells us all

416
00:28:37.119 --> 00:28:41.759
the time I got you just let
it go, leave it alone. You

417
00:28:41.799 --> 00:28:45.319
know. I agree with missus Gray
when she said a lot of people are

418
00:28:47.000 --> 00:28:53.359
lonely, you know, not only
just elderly, but people in general,

419
00:28:55.799 --> 00:29:00.319
you know, unfortunate my families,
and I'm gonna say my families because you

420
00:29:00.400 --> 00:29:06.000
all in my family having to live
in a car, you know, or

421
00:29:06.079 --> 00:29:11.640
find shelter under a bridge. You
know, we go walking, there's a

422
00:29:11.720 --> 00:29:18.519
lot of homeless people. A lot
they carry what they own with them.

423
00:29:18.240 --> 00:29:25.799
People travel around wherever with their suitcase. I'd be wanting to say, where

424
00:29:25.880 --> 00:29:32.359
you go with, but you don't
want to invade or make them feel less

425
00:29:32.359 --> 00:29:37.440
than what they may already feel within
themselves. But we do pray for them.

426
00:29:37.000 --> 00:29:42.079
We do, We really do pray
for them. So my goal will

427
00:29:42.119 --> 00:29:49.160
be met this week, and I'm
excited and I'm looking forward to whoever I

428
00:29:49.319 --> 00:29:56.000
meet. A young lady came by
this weekend and she was a friend of

429
00:29:56.039 --> 00:29:59.920
my fiance and she was saying,
well, if y'all don't want tom go,

430
00:30:00.359 --> 00:30:03.359
you know, I said, go
feed the homeless. Go ahead,

431
00:30:03.400 --> 00:30:07.160
And I said where do you go? And she was explaining to me.

432
00:30:07.640 --> 00:30:11.480
I said, okay, I knew
exactly that area, so that's what I

433
00:30:11.519 --> 00:30:15.599
would do. So she didn't know
what was going on, but I yes,

434
00:30:15.839 --> 00:30:19.839
go go feed them. And she
had grilled meat, you know,

435
00:30:19.960 --> 00:30:25.680
grilled chicken, which is safe.
You know what I'm saying. You know,

436
00:30:25.759 --> 00:30:30.240
you don't want to go with no
like a dinner like when people make

437
00:30:32.960 --> 00:30:37.759
potato salad and stuff, because if
you're not storing it right and if they

438
00:30:37.799 --> 00:30:41.039
don't eat it right, then it
could mess up, it could spoil.

439
00:30:41.440 --> 00:30:47.119
But you want to give them something
wholesome and something that's less chance of spoiling,

440
00:30:47.759 --> 00:30:51.880
you know. So thank you,
Country, I appreciate you. I

441
00:30:51.960 --> 00:30:57.279
remember when you first responded to us
and how we were giving out that information

442
00:30:57.960 --> 00:31:03.519
of what we had learned, and
so were here that if you got questions

443
00:31:03.559 --> 00:31:08.200
are you looking for, let us
be a form of resource that we will

444
00:31:08.200 --> 00:31:12.839
look it up and try to find
that information for you or give you directions

445
00:31:14.039 --> 00:31:18.200
in order to you know, get
where you're trying to go. I thank

446
00:31:18.240 --> 00:31:23.119
you all. I appreciate everybody.
Country is z and I think it was

447
00:31:23.160 --> 00:31:33.400
one other person and could never ever
think rebel enough, not ever, because

448
00:31:33.839 --> 00:31:37.440
she is so on point. And
I don't know you had met you,

449
00:31:37.880 --> 00:31:45.200
but I love you anyway. Amen, ain'mmen. Amen. Now I'm gonna

450
00:31:45.200 --> 00:31:48.160
switch just a little bit because I
just have to tell y'all. I bet

451
00:31:48.240 --> 00:31:52.119
y'all didn't them I was supposed to. I was my doctor. My medical

452
00:31:52.160 --> 00:31:57.119
doctor told me I need to go
for a coloscophy. Whatever it is,

453
00:31:57.240 --> 00:32:04.359
okay, thank you, thank you, thank you. And so I finally

454
00:32:04.400 --> 00:32:06.480
said today, of Nemi, goo
ahead and look into this. So he

455
00:32:06.519 --> 00:32:08.759
put it on the referral paper and
everything. So I call the people nice

456
00:32:08.799 --> 00:32:12.079
little girl. It's not like a
little girl. And I was like,

457
00:32:12.160 --> 00:32:15.119
yeah, she's taking a little assessment
over the phone and everything, and so

458
00:32:15.200 --> 00:32:17.920
I told her I said yeah.
She said, what was the reason for

459
00:32:17.960 --> 00:32:21.000
the referral? Well, I said, well, my primary said, you

460
00:32:21.000 --> 00:32:22.480
know, it's that time. I've
been aboarding it for a while and going

461
00:32:22.519 --> 00:32:25.240
through the cola guard. But you
know, he caught me. So I

462
00:32:25.240 --> 00:32:28.759
said me, go ahead and have
one of these at least once in my

463
00:32:28.880 --> 00:32:32.200
life. And so then I talked
about the hospital and thisce the diagnosis I

464
00:32:32.240 --> 00:32:35.960
had at that point and stuff,
and she goes, well, okay,

465
00:32:36.039 --> 00:32:39.839
So apparently I was on speaker because
she was talking. I couldn't hear it.

466
00:32:39.839 --> 00:32:44.200
It was just an odd silence.
Well, anyway, long story short,

467
00:32:44.640 --> 00:32:47.200
she said, I'm so and I
told I was emptated, called drupe

468
00:32:47.240 --> 00:32:52.400
empty, and she says, well, I'm so sorry. We won't be

469
00:32:52.400 --> 00:32:57.599
able to provide any service for you
because we are a small practice and we're

470
00:32:57.640 --> 00:33:00.799
gonna we could refer you to a
bigger pack practice. I said, wait

471
00:33:00.839 --> 00:33:07.000
a minute, So are you telling
me because I'm an amputee you've never seen

472
00:33:07.079 --> 00:33:09.480
me. You don't care that I'm
ambulatory. You don't care that I'm driving,

473
00:33:09.519 --> 00:33:12.839
You don't care that I have prosthetics
that I don't use, and I

474
00:33:12.839 --> 00:33:16.000
can turn over on the stretcher by
myself. You don't care anything about that.

475
00:33:16.880 --> 00:33:21.720
All you're saying is because I'm an
amputee. She said, yes,

476
00:33:22.119 --> 00:33:24.880
and she pauses. She I guess
I can just imagine her looking up or

477
00:33:24.880 --> 00:33:29.400
looking to the doctor who's standing right
there, telling her you can't take her,

478
00:33:29.920 --> 00:33:32.960
we can't take her, And I'm
like really, And then they don't

479
00:33:32.960 --> 00:33:37.240
take they don't take Medicaid and they
don't take because I was asking her,

480
00:33:37.279 --> 00:33:39.119
what kind of insurances do you take? They don't take Medicaid, they don't

481
00:33:39.160 --> 00:33:46.279
take self paying people, they don't
take self paying people. I said,

482
00:33:46.359 --> 00:33:51.119
boy, right here in Florida,
so I call my primary. Ain't nothing

483
00:33:51.160 --> 00:33:52.279
voice about. I said, hey, this is what your doctor just said

484
00:33:52.319 --> 00:33:54.359
to me. They're not gonna take
me. So you know what, I'm

485
00:33:54.359 --> 00:33:58.079
gonna ignore it. I'm gonna believe
on Jesus. Thank you, y'all have

486
00:33:58.119 --> 00:34:05.680
a great week. Click okay,
yeah, yeah, yeah. I was

487
00:34:05.759 --> 00:34:12.039
denied service. I was denied service. So I'm gonna let the threat that

488
00:34:12.199 --> 00:34:15.119
coalition know, the empty coalition know
as well. I was denied service.

489
00:34:15.440 --> 00:34:19.000
Don't know, you ain't look at
me yet, and I still have to

490
00:34:19.039 --> 00:34:22.400
go in for consultation. You know, I would still have to go in

491
00:34:22.440 --> 00:34:25.280
so you get a chance to see
me. But now so I said,

492
00:34:25.320 --> 00:34:34.760
wow, So Florida beware, we
got some mess and other red states beware.

493
00:34:35.960 --> 00:34:43.559
Is it huh American Disabilities Association.
I think it's Association eighty eight.

494
00:34:44.159 --> 00:34:47.519
If it was, yeah, you're
right. If God said so, I'll

495
00:34:47.559 --> 00:34:51.800
go for it. If he says
stand down, I stand down. And

496
00:34:51.840 --> 00:34:53.679
I love it now when he tells
me to stand down, because then he

497
00:34:53.760 --> 00:34:57.760
goes in and he swoops up everything, He takes care of it all.

498
00:34:58.239 --> 00:35:00.639
So I don't know. I don't
know but I I said, well,

499
00:35:00.679 --> 00:35:02.719
wait till I get over the show
tonight. I got to tell them I

500
00:35:02.800 --> 00:35:07.760
was denied service because I'm an amputee. So did they feel like you were

501
00:35:07.800 --> 00:35:12.920
a thread or something? I think
of liability? Maybe? I don't know.

502
00:35:13.039 --> 00:35:15.960
I don't know what they were thinking. I don't know what their image

503
00:35:15.000 --> 00:35:17.639
was. I don't know what they're
there. You know what came to her

504
00:35:17.679 --> 00:35:22.199
mind. But whoever she was talking, obviously I was on speaker and she

505
00:35:22.360 --> 00:35:24.000
was. They were right there.
She didn't put me on hold or anything.

506
00:35:24.079 --> 00:35:29.400
So they were hearing all of this. So, no, we're because

507
00:35:29.400 --> 00:35:32.199
we're a small practice. We're a
small Oh you don't have liability insurance?

508
00:35:32.239 --> 00:35:36.440
Is that what you're telling me?
Because I know some medical doctors that don't

509
00:35:36.480 --> 00:35:39.599
have liability insurance. They can't afford
it. And that was over twenty years

510
00:35:39.639 --> 00:35:43.639
ago. They couldn't afford it,
so they stopped doing it. They said,

511
00:35:43.679 --> 00:35:45.719
at your own risk. You want
to come and see us, it's

512
00:35:45.719 --> 00:35:49.599
at your own risk. I can't
go back and see my guy to colleges.

513
00:35:49.639 --> 00:35:51.840
After I got out of the hospital
and everything, I wanted to go

514
00:35:51.840 --> 00:35:53.280
back and just pay her a visits. I didn't want a service she said,

515
00:35:53.280 --> 00:35:55.960
no, ma'am, because you have
Medicare, you can't come in the

516
00:35:57.039 --> 00:36:00.679
door if we know you coming in. I said, just said hello.

517
00:36:00.280 --> 00:36:02.760
She said, no, man,
I'm so sorry. But I knew that

518
00:36:02.760 --> 00:36:13.920
that doctor had stopped with liability insurance. So yeah, I know, it's

519
00:36:13.960 --> 00:36:17.280
been, like you said, some
years ago because a lot of neuro doctors

520
00:36:17.639 --> 00:36:24.880
left Florida because of how high there
the insurance was for them to take and

521
00:36:24.960 --> 00:36:36.639
for protection. But wow, but
that's but that discrimination. It's a form

522
00:36:36.679 --> 00:36:44.360
of discrimination because of your condition.
It like you said, you prejudge me

523
00:36:44.719 --> 00:36:51.800
and not even know that I'm i'm, I'm i'm mobile, I'm i'm I

524
00:36:51.840 --> 00:36:57.800
can maneuver my own self. It's
not like I need your assistance. I'm

525
00:36:57.840 --> 00:37:04.760
just letting you know my situation.
But I am amblatory on my own.

526
00:37:05.360 --> 00:37:13.320
Mm hm. So that's discrimination because
of your condition, not on whether they

527
00:37:13.360 --> 00:37:19.079
can service you or not. And
then I contacted my insurance guy, one

528
00:37:19.079 --> 00:37:22.840
of my pastors that I mentor,
and he works he's in the medicare and

529
00:37:22.960 --> 00:37:27.199
insurance you know, enrollment stuff.
And he said quickly, he said,

530
00:37:27.239 --> 00:37:32.599
you know Ms Gray, Medicare looks
at look towards calmonoscopy exams as prevented it.

531
00:37:34.000 --> 00:37:37.039
So they pay for the whole thing. The pay for the whole thing,

532
00:37:37.639 --> 00:37:38.880
he said, So that wasn't an
issue, hans I said, Nope,

533
00:37:39.000 --> 00:37:44.159
not the issue. Not the issue. So they may be hearing from

534
00:37:44.159 --> 00:37:47.559
attorney. I don't know, but
I got to let people know. I'm

535
00:37:47.599 --> 00:37:52.000
just gonna Can I put my two
cents in? Please? Please? It's

536
00:37:52.880 --> 00:37:57.000
inflation, it's five cents. Look, you have have me on a whole

537
00:37:57.000 --> 00:38:04.320
different plane. Now, I just
I just got how dare them? You

538
00:38:04.360 --> 00:38:07.559
know? How dare them? And
my thing is if you are in the

539
00:38:07.599 --> 00:38:10.119
medical field, this is a medical
place, right, because I'm pretty sure

540
00:38:10.119 --> 00:38:14.519
there's not a plumber going doing whatever
they need to do. It's medical,

541
00:38:14.679 --> 00:38:20.639
right. So if you are in
the in the in the business of providing

542
00:38:20.679 --> 00:38:25.360
a medical service, just how dare
you turn somebody down? Regardless of it

543
00:38:25.800 --> 00:38:32.280
if you said you were uh amputee
or that, that has nothing to do

544
00:38:32.320 --> 00:38:37.320
with that. If you can't provide
the service, you don't need to be

545
00:38:37.519 --> 00:38:42.280
in servants. It's you know,
it's just as simple as you know.

546
00:38:42.360 --> 00:38:46.800
I know insurance is a whole different
ball game, but it is a shame

547
00:38:47.360 --> 00:38:52.199
and I think people need to make
and maybe the platform people need to Maybe

548
00:38:52.239 --> 00:38:57.840
that's a discussion we need to have, you know, understanding what what your

549
00:38:57.880 --> 00:39:04.639
what insurances covered. And I know
my dad had Medicare and Trycare. He

550
00:39:04.719 --> 00:39:07.519
had both the military and at one
point in his life. They were saying,

551
00:39:07.519 --> 00:39:10.119
you want to move straight to the
meta. No, Medicare doesn't pay

552
00:39:10.119 --> 00:39:15.360
for anything. And it's sad when
you work and work and you put aside

553
00:39:15.400 --> 00:39:20.880
to have something and when you need
it you can't get it, like the

554
00:39:21.559 --> 00:39:25.800
in home health which only gives you
a certain amount of time a week,

555
00:39:27.239 --> 00:39:31.360
you know, for our aid to
come in and help you when you get

556
00:39:31.360 --> 00:39:35.760
to the point where you can't help
yourself on your own. You know what

557
00:39:35.760 --> 00:39:39.199
I mean. I just I get
frustrated and nothing like I said. I

558
00:39:39.239 --> 00:39:44.679
know when my dad was living and
navigate, we were fortunate he had that.

559
00:39:45.159 --> 00:39:49.920
But I do have friends who's caring
for the loved ones who do not

560
00:39:50.239 --> 00:39:58.400
or cannot get that. Even the
adult adults protective undergarments, they don't.

561
00:39:58.519 --> 00:40:01.599
I don't think they pay for that. You know, these are something I

562
00:40:01.679 --> 00:40:06.840
don't think so, I don't think
so. They the only way you get

563
00:40:06.880 --> 00:40:10.880
that coverage without paying for it.
You have to be able to qualify for

564
00:40:12.000 --> 00:40:17.559
Medicare and Medicaid. If you don't
qualify for the two of them, it's

565
00:40:17.880 --> 00:40:22.000
not available. Just like with my
aunt, my nine to five year old

566
00:40:22.039 --> 00:40:29.760
aunt, she does have a supplementary
insurance that she paid, but still to

567
00:40:29.800 --> 00:40:36.760
an extent, is very limited.
And Medicare only paid for twenty days in

568
00:40:36.800 --> 00:40:46.480
a rehab or rehab or a nursing
facility. Only twenty days by twenty one,

569
00:40:47.000 --> 00:40:52.599
you butt the bill. My dad
income was too much for him to

570
00:40:52.679 --> 00:40:59.360
qualify for Medicaid. So when he
hit the first time we went into the

571
00:40:59.760 --> 00:41:05.000
reh have center. When it hit
day twenty one, I was given a

572
00:41:05.119 --> 00:41:09.760
check. I was giving them a
check. We paid it, you know,

573
00:41:09.920 --> 00:41:15.360
we had it. We was able
to do it. But everybody's not

574
00:41:15.719 --> 00:41:22.079
able. And for what they're looking
for people to be able to get these

575
00:41:22.119 --> 00:41:28.880
services, you might as well be
living in your car. That's the way

576
00:41:28.920 --> 00:41:35.920
that is. You can't have anything, you can't own anything. It's mentmal

577
00:41:36.920 --> 00:41:44.440
right. Well, I did find
out recently, if you're getting SSDI Social

578
00:41:44.440 --> 00:41:52.480
Security Disability, they lifted the asset
requirement. They did do that finally,

579
00:41:53.599 --> 00:41:59.559
and so you can earn money and
things like that you can earn an extra

580
00:41:59.599 --> 00:42:02.320
income. You just gotta be careful. They've got a couple of little tears

581
00:42:02.440 --> 00:42:06.800
of categories that you need to fall
under. But you need to know what

582
00:42:06.840 --> 00:42:13.679
they are, that's the first thing. But of course with SSI you cannot

583
00:42:13.800 --> 00:42:19.079
you can if that's just you're doing
a temporary supplement and that's SSI. You

584
00:42:19.159 --> 00:42:23.039
cannot have assets. You cannot go
over what you're earning a monthly. And

585
00:42:23.119 --> 00:42:25.880
I told the young lady, I
said, even though we're gonna get a

586
00:42:27.000 --> 00:42:32.519
raise in in January, Medicare is
gonna take the bulk of that, takes

587
00:42:32.559 --> 00:42:37.239
it right away from you, you
know, So I don't even plan on

588
00:42:37.280 --> 00:42:39.519
that. I don't even look towards
that because I think and in my Medicare

589
00:42:39.599 --> 00:42:44.840
guy, that is a show to
do for sure. Okay, lots of

590
00:42:44.840 --> 00:42:46.960
other folks don't even know what all
the insurance and things are about. Yes,

591
00:42:47.159 --> 00:42:51.320
and thank you, missy, because
and I may have my insurance guy

592
00:42:51.440 --> 00:42:54.400
come on, because he could break
that stuff down real fast. You know,

593
00:42:54.480 --> 00:42:59.880
what's the point of You see all
these beautiful commercials on getting supper millions

594
00:43:00.039 --> 00:43:02.840
durances for Part C and you may
get grocery paid and you may get gas.

595
00:43:04.400 --> 00:43:07.199
Now it's it's a mess. It's
a mess. So I may even

596
00:43:07.639 --> 00:43:12.119
have him come on and really break
that down for us. But it's it's

597
00:43:12.159 --> 00:43:15.360
deep, it's really deep, and
it's a lot of lies, it's a

598
00:43:15.360 --> 00:43:19.719
lot of lines because half the doctors
are not taking the insurances as well.

599
00:43:19.840 --> 00:43:22.960
Yes, talk, I know the
experience that I have with my dad.

600
00:43:23.440 --> 00:43:30.679
I end up taking him off of
one of the special insurances to just straighten

601
00:43:30.800 --> 00:43:37.800
Medicare. And when we were trying
to get like they tell you about the

602
00:43:37.840 --> 00:43:45.719
supplement for your medication, he was
only on two medications. Well, we

603
00:43:45.719 --> 00:43:52.840
were paying two hundred and seventy two
dollars a year, no, two hundred

604
00:43:52.840 --> 00:44:00.119
and seventy two dollars a month for
his in his Medicare make medication. What

605
00:44:00.199 --> 00:44:05.519
happened? I was at Sam's and
the lady say you have She said,

606
00:44:05.719 --> 00:44:14.400
you are the higher paying customer because
me and my aunt shared one hundred and

607
00:44:14.440 --> 00:44:20.119
ten dollars. So what happened?
She said, add your daddy on this,

608
00:44:21.039 --> 00:44:24.599
put his name on there. We
added him and so I was able

609
00:44:24.639 --> 00:44:30.239
to add two for forty dollars more
him and my uncle, and I was

610
00:44:30.280 --> 00:44:39.079
able to get his medication every three
months for twenty seven dollars two seventy two

611
00:44:40.239 --> 00:44:46.400
to twenty seven every three months.
So yes, we might just have to

612
00:44:46.440 --> 00:44:50.559
do we'll do a show. We'll
do that, and no better, we'll

613
00:44:50.559 --> 00:44:53.840
do it next month most of de
Yeah, thank you because right the things

614
00:44:54.559 --> 00:44:58.199
I'm sorry, tell me go ahead. Yes, because everybody right now was

615
00:44:58.239 --> 00:45:04.719
getting those phone calls because between now
in December seven, it's that enrollment time.

616
00:45:05.000 --> 00:45:08.320
So this is a great time,
great time, Yes, thank you,

617
00:45:08.360 --> 00:45:12.079
and we will do that. I'll
get in touch with him this week

618
00:45:12.119 --> 00:45:15.400
and see if you'll come on and
talk about the differences and getting departs see

619
00:45:15.519 --> 00:45:21.360
and getting the Medicaid medication covered and
things like that. This is enrollment time,

620
00:45:21.440 --> 00:45:24.000
yes, sir, Country Corner,
It definitely is. And it's every

621
00:45:24.079 --> 00:45:28.599
year set and unless you know what
you need to get or whatever, and

622
00:45:28.639 --> 00:45:30.119
some people just stay with you because
if it works for you to stay with

623
00:45:30.199 --> 00:45:35.000
it, stay with it. You
just don't know what's you know what's going

624
00:45:35.039 --> 00:45:37.840
on here, I'm telling you.
And then you've got medical doctors. I

625
00:45:37.880 --> 00:45:43.039
have the nurse practitioner trying to make
me take this medication and she's like,

626
00:45:43.320 --> 00:45:45.840
you don't have the insurance for that. I have insurance that covers from what

627
00:45:45.960 --> 00:45:51.199
happened to me with this that's being
covered, but it's not going to accept

628
00:45:51.480 --> 00:45:54.320
any of this other stuff because they're
gonna say, no, what are y'all

629
00:45:54.320 --> 00:45:57.880
talking about? You know, and
we're not going through this. She have

630
00:45:58.000 --> 00:46:00.239
to go get something else. So
I have to go get into your So

631
00:46:00.280 --> 00:46:05.960
publics had two things that was on
say and I got it just so I

632
00:46:06.000 --> 00:46:08.119
can let the doctor know it's not
working for me. I'll stick with my

633
00:46:08.159 --> 00:46:12.880
supplements that's going to help me better. So but thank you. That's what

634
00:46:12.920 --> 00:46:17.079
we need to hear. That's what
we need to know. And you've got

635
00:46:17.079 --> 00:46:21.239
to be very careful. You got
to be Some people miss the time and

636
00:46:21.320 --> 00:46:22.960
have to wait in a whole another
year. They have been going without service.

637
00:46:23.039 --> 00:46:27.800
Yes, you're absolutely right, because
they don't know. At least sign

638
00:46:27.880 --> 00:46:30.079
up for something if you can afford
it. If you can afford it.

639
00:46:30.119 --> 00:46:32.159
But you got to talk it out. You got to talk to somebody,

640
00:46:32.239 --> 00:46:35.880
get on the phone with them.
That's what they're paid to do, is

641
00:46:35.920 --> 00:46:39.079
to listen and try to find you
a better plan. I remember my Obama

642
00:46:39.119 --> 00:46:43.400
health care days. I remember that
back in the day, you know where

643
00:46:43.400 --> 00:46:46.400
I had to my husband had passed
away and insurance lasted. They gave us

644
00:46:46.400 --> 00:46:50.559
another three months and that was nice. But they gave me time to go

645
00:46:50.559 --> 00:46:53.119
ahead and roll right into open enrollment, and I had to cover my kids,

646
00:46:53.239 --> 00:46:55.880
you know, and stuff like that. Thank god, we got the

647
00:46:57.000 --> 00:47:00.960
kids, you know who My twins
are men in college under the Medicaid support.

648
00:47:01.199 --> 00:47:05.039
But after but you've got a doctor
like to what I found today that

649
00:47:05.119 --> 00:47:08.000
don't take Medicaid. So now I
got to call Medicaid and see, you

650
00:47:08.039 --> 00:47:12.880
know, what's okay? Where are
the practitioners, where are your providers?

651
00:47:13.920 --> 00:47:15.280
You know? So it's a whole
thing, so, you know, and

652
00:47:15.320 --> 00:47:17.599
then like you said, you know, people are just not doing it.

653
00:47:17.679 --> 00:47:22.480
They they'll rather, you know,
I'll suffer it to be so, and

654
00:47:22.599 --> 00:47:24.480
I'll call it a day. I'll
call it. But we don't have to

655
00:47:24.519 --> 00:47:27.880
live in misery. We don't have
to live in fear, we don't have

656
00:47:27.920 --> 00:47:30.159
to live with anxiety. Let's try
to do some things. Let's try to

657
00:47:30.159 --> 00:47:32.920
help it out. Let's try to
pray it out, Let's try to walk

658
00:47:32.960 --> 00:47:37.519
it out. Change. You know, if people around you are not positive

659
00:47:37.559 --> 00:47:42.000
and saying nice things and being cooperative
and motivating to you let them go.

660
00:47:43.440 --> 00:47:47.079
Let them go, You'll find God
will send you somebody that cares, somebody

661
00:47:47.119 --> 00:47:50.920
who is a listening hear, somebody
who will guide you if that's what you

662
00:47:50.960 --> 00:47:54.920
need, if you need guidance,
and we're here. If you need us,

663
00:47:55.480 --> 00:47:59.719
we're here. So we thank you
all for this interaction. Interaction.

664
00:47:59.760 --> 00:48:02.079
I love it. And all three
of these people are strangers. They don't

665
00:48:02.119 --> 00:48:06.800
know either. I don't know them, they don't know us. But I

666
00:48:06.880 --> 00:48:08.800
keep you know, I've said it
early on and I'm not gonna go down

667
00:48:08.920 --> 00:48:12.599
that road. But you know,
the people that you invite to come to

668
00:48:12.639 --> 00:48:15.880
the show, they don't even come. And then the ones got their issues

669
00:48:16.639 --> 00:48:21.320
that we're talking about, because then
tomorrow they gonna call and say, well,

670
00:48:21.360 --> 00:48:22.880
I need you to pray about what
we talked about that last night on

671
00:48:22.920 --> 00:48:29.000
the show. You know, oh
yeah, of Little Faith. I mean,

672
00:48:29.039 --> 00:48:31.000
you know, but more and more
families are moving back in together just

673
00:48:31.039 --> 00:48:34.719
to make ends meet. Yes,
Mickey, I call that, thank you.

674
00:48:35.400 --> 00:48:38.440
I called that out earlier this year. There's gonna even before right after

675
00:48:38.440 --> 00:48:42.800
twenty twenty, I said that,
don't be surprised, families are gonna start

676
00:48:42.840 --> 00:48:45.880
moving back in with each other.
Just pay your set of the bills and

677
00:48:45.920 --> 00:48:50.159
make sure everybody there's food and the
refrigerator and in the cabinets. But it's

678
00:48:50.159 --> 00:48:52.440
gonna happen. I just told somebody, I said, my three got stuck

679
00:48:52.480 --> 00:48:55.840
here because of twenty twenty. The
three together can And I was just talking

680
00:48:55.840 --> 00:48:59.119
to them this week. I said, you know, y'all gonna have to

681
00:48:59.119 --> 00:49:01.159
at least go to get two three
jobs. The economy is not gonna change

682
00:49:01.599 --> 00:49:05.719
and it's not meant for you to
live with me forever, you know,

683
00:49:05.960 --> 00:49:07.880
So you need to, you know, be looking at getting two or three

684
00:49:07.920 --> 00:49:13.079
jobs because nobody's hiring full time anymore. It's twenty dollars and twenty hours here's

685
00:49:13.079 --> 00:49:15.760
sixteen hours there, thirty six hours
over here. Nothing for thirty eight and

686
00:49:15.840 --> 00:49:20.119
forty anymore. So you know,
you got to talk to your children.

687
00:49:20.119 --> 00:49:22.320
You gotta talk to your lovels and
let them know, you know, this

688
00:49:22.400 --> 00:49:24.679
is what's coming up. But anyway, it's almost it's a rap. It's

689
00:49:24.719 --> 00:49:29.880
a rap. It's a rap.
I promise you we will be back next

690
00:49:29.920 --> 00:49:34.880
week, same time, same station, last Monday in the month, can

691
00:49:34.960 --> 00:49:37.559
you believe it or not? And
we want to hear more from you all,

692
00:49:37.599 --> 00:49:39.800
so y'all were gonna make y'all talk
some too. Y'all be blessed and

693
00:49:39.840 --> 00:50:37.159
stay safe. Good night night,
Take care, guys,
