11
00:01:32.280 --> 00:01:37.280
straight with mss Gray and co hosts
and guests as well. But before we

12
00:01:37.319 --> 00:01:38.959
go any further, we must pray. We got to open this up in

13
00:01:40.040 --> 00:01:42.760
prayer. Let's pray. Father,
We just thank you, we praise you,

14
00:01:42.799 --> 00:01:45.760
We give you glory for you alonea
worthy to be praised. Lord,

15
00:01:46.159 --> 00:01:49.719
have your way tonight, Have your
way tonight. I felt the anointing old

16
00:01:49.840 --> 00:01:53.799
day to day everywhere I went.
So I know, I know with a

17
00:01:53.879 --> 00:01:57.680
shadow, without a shadow of doubt, that there's something that needs to be

18
00:01:57.840 --> 00:02:01.760
said tonight. Somebody it needs to
hear something tonight. We need to cover

19
00:02:01.840 --> 00:02:06.319
everybody in prayer, from those on
the front to those that are behind the

20
00:02:06.359 --> 00:02:08.680
scenes, those that are on their
way, and those that have gone on

21
00:02:08.759 --> 00:02:13.319
before us. We just thank you, Father God, and as always Lord,

22
00:02:13.360 --> 00:02:15.639
we get behind the cross. Now
we get behind the cross. You

23
00:02:15.840 --> 00:02:20.759
set the captains free. All this
and more we ask in Jesus name,

24
00:02:21.639 --> 00:02:24.400
Amen and amen, and that man
that she has trade tray. All right,

25
00:02:24.439 --> 00:02:30.080
Now that's how's everybody doing. We're
well, we're good. I can't

26
00:02:30.080 --> 00:02:34.080
speak for everybody, but I'm good. I'm gonna say that, but I'm

27
00:02:34.120 --> 00:02:37.439
good. Everybody. All hearts and
minds are clear of tonight. As the

28
00:02:37.520 --> 00:02:43.719
beast would say, okay, we'll
welcome, welcome, welcome to everybody.

29
00:02:43.759 --> 00:02:46.960
And as you could tell, we've
got a fourth person. We have a

30
00:02:46.039 --> 00:02:51.319
fourth square that's appearing, and that's
our mighty guess, our awesome guest.

31
00:02:51.599 --> 00:02:54.199
She's been with us before. But
now we're gonna we're gonna talk. Before

32
00:02:54.240 --> 00:02:59.360
we do that. We want to
do a little housekeeping. We already know

33
00:02:59.400 --> 00:03:01.879
what's going on the news. We
already know what's going on in the news

34
00:03:01.960 --> 00:03:07.639
over in Haiti, and my god, please please, we've got to pray

35
00:03:07.280 --> 00:03:13.319
for the country as a whole.
It's citizens, the residents, guests,

36
00:03:13.360 --> 00:03:17.439
missionary folks that are over there.
Hey, hey, hey, how are

37
00:03:17.520 --> 00:03:25.599
you. We have to pray for
everybody. And Representative Frost sent me an

38
00:03:25.680 --> 00:03:30.240
email today he's trying his best get
from under there. Excuse me now,

39
00:03:30.719 --> 00:03:34.800
you know Jazz is gonna try to
make her debut tonight and get on my

40
00:03:34.879 --> 00:03:38.639
nerves. Here we go. But
he sends an email saying that he's doing

41
00:03:38.719 --> 00:03:44.919
his best to get anybody that's you, any US citizens that are stuck in

42
00:03:44.960 --> 00:03:50.719
Haiti right now, they're sending airplanes
a smaller little place to try to get

43
00:03:50.759 --> 00:03:54.240
people out of there. They can't
send but so much. And they're just

44
00:03:54.280 --> 00:03:58.280
trying to get the information to everybody. So we've got to pray. We've

45
00:03:58.280 --> 00:04:03.159
got to pray. I understand Governor
DeSantis has sent his militia army over there

46
00:04:03.240 --> 00:04:08.080
as well. I don't know what
that means. I would think the US

47
00:04:08.159 --> 00:04:12.680
Guard needs to go, but I
don't know. But please, we you

48
00:04:12.719 --> 00:04:15.319
know, just our hearts, you
know, and our minds are on Haiti

49
00:04:15.439 --> 00:04:20.199
right now, because I did not
expect this to be the World War.

50
00:04:21.279 --> 00:04:27.199
If you would, everybody else was
talking about World War happening and coming to

51
00:04:27.319 --> 00:04:30.600
the States, and then of course
we know what's going on when Israel and

52
00:04:30.639 --> 00:04:35.879
some other places, Ukraine, all
these places, but I never look at

53
00:04:36.079 --> 00:04:43.480
something this close to home and affecting
us and the way it could affect America

54
00:04:44.240 --> 00:04:48.720
and Florida and any other states that
as affiliated that have residents and loved ones

55
00:04:48.759 --> 00:04:53.879
over in Haiti. So you know, God is really good. If you

56
00:04:54.040 --> 00:04:57.639
listen to him, he's gonna explain
some things. You give him time,

57
00:04:57.720 --> 00:05:01.120
he'll make things really clear. So
we need to be very preyerful. That's

58
00:05:01.160 --> 00:05:05.480
what I've been feeling in my spirit
ever since we got news and heard you

59
00:05:05.519 --> 00:05:10.480
know, what was really going on
over there, and you know, we

60
00:05:10.680 --> 00:05:15.480
just and again when Representative Frost set
out this email today, you know what

61
00:05:15.560 --> 00:05:18.720
he's trying to do, he and
some other elected officials or trying to just

62
00:05:18.759 --> 00:05:25.759
get folks out of there. And
there's a crisis intake form that you can

63
00:05:25.839 --> 00:05:29.360
fill out if you have loved ones
over there, or if you have any

64
00:05:29.560 --> 00:05:33.839
US citizens over there that you're concerned
about and they're feeling like they're stuck.

65
00:05:34.639 --> 00:05:40.399
There's an intake for them that could
be completed. So and oddly enough,

66
00:05:40.480 --> 00:05:46.639
we're talking about the International Day of
Happiness. I tell you, you know,

67
00:05:46.199 --> 00:05:50.439
that's different for everybody. You have
to define your happiness. You have

68
00:05:50.560 --> 00:05:56.480
to keep defining and redefining what happiness
is as you age, as some of

69
00:05:56.560 --> 00:05:59.839
us get younger, Thank you Jesus, some of us get younger. But

70
00:05:59.879 --> 00:06:02.959
I have to keep redefining. After
you've gone through a traumatic event or an

71
00:06:03.000 --> 00:06:08.720
experience, you got to keep redefining
it because if you don't, you'll look

72
00:06:08.800 --> 00:06:13.439
up and not realize that you're really
not happy. And if you're not careful

73
00:06:13.519 --> 00:06:16.759
because of the hurt, because of
the unforgiveness, because of the endurance and

74
00:06:16.759 --> 00:06:24.800
the severity, you will wind up
bitter. You will become bitter. I

75
00:06:24.879 --> 00:06:30.319
know that when I was getting ready
to divorce my second husband, I had

76
00:06:30.360 --> 00:06:34.240
to watch myself because I did not
want to become bitter. Not knowing then

77
00:06:34.360 --> 00:06:40.120
the Lord had me to say no, retract the divorce process. I didn't

78
00:06:40.160 --> 00:06:44.839
know he was passing away, you
know, but I had to check myself,

79
00:06:45.519 --> 00:06:47.600
you know, I don't want to
be against men and the marriage and

80
00:06:48.120 --> 00:06:53.680
all day to day. J.
C. Penny sent out an email and

81
00:06:53.959 --> 00:06:56.600
all these specials, and so I
said, leave, let's go, you

82
00:06:56.639 --> 00:06:59.839
know, just just I mean,
you know, it's been a long time

83
00:07:00.040 --> 00:07:02.199
since we've shocked. And I said, they've got some good stuff, so

84
00:07:02.279 --> 00:07:04.560
let's go, you know, seventy
five percent off. I said, oh,

85
00:07:04.600 --> 00:07:10.360
you're talking to me and everybody we
are putting prayers, a thank you

86
00:07:10.439 --> 00:07:13.439
country, see good evening. Hey, missy, I've said prayers since I

87
00:07:13.480 --> 00:07:15.959
heard it by thank you, missive
God, bless you, thank you.

88
00:07:15.319 --> 00:07:18.439
And God is on it. He's
on it, but he wants us to

89
00:07:18.839 --> 00:07:23.480
really he's allowing us to peek on, you know, through the curtain and

90
00:07:23.560 --> 00:07:26.839
see what's going on there. So
we really got to be very strategic and

91
00:07:26.839 --> 00:07:30.879
be very focused. But today,
out of all days, everybody I saw,

92
00:07:31.120 --> 00:07:38.240
every second customer or person in the
mall walking were couples, and they

93
00:07:38.279 --> 00:07:42.800
were older couples, and they were
holding each other's hands and looking at each

94
00:07:42.800 --> 00:07:45.839
other lovingly. And I mean,
why I have to see this, I

95
00:07:45.879 --> 00:07:48.839
do not know, but you know
I'm seeing this and I'm like, oh

96
00:07:48.879 --> 00:07:53.279
my God, And you could tell
the love. You could tell the love.

97
00:07:53.560 --> 00:07:58.759
And they were holding hands and they
ranged in age, but they're over

98
00:07:58.839 --> 00:08:01.279
forty, they were over fifty,
the somewhere over sixty. We met a

99
00:08:01.319 --> 00:08:05.920
lady that was eighty two. She
don't even look like she's sixty. She

100
00:08:07.000 --> 00:08:09.079
asked my daughter for her professional opinion. She goes, look, we got

101
00:08:09.120 --> 00:08:13.199
to talk to these young people.
Which these these these outfits go together?

102
00:08:13.120 --> 00:08:16.319
She said, you know, And
I tried to just look at she looking

103
00:08:16.319 --> 00:08:18.360
at me like, well why,
I'm like, okay, I'm gonna leave

104
00:08:18.399 --> 00:08:20.600
that up to you. But she
she ain't talking to me. She didn't

105
00:08:20.600 --> 00:08:22.959
want to hear nothing I have to
say. But she had to tell she

106
00:08:22.000 --> 00:08:26.399
was getting ready to go to her
granddaughter's graduation in a month or two,

107
00:08:26.959 --> 00:08:28.240
and but she wanted to get the
right outfit. So she goes, you

108
00:08:28.279 --> 00:08:31.399
know, you have to ask these
young people, you know, cause they

109
00:08:31.399 --> 00:08:33.600
could tell you. I'm eighty two
years old. I'm still trying to look

110
00:08:33.600 --> 00:08:35.840
young. And I said, well, mother, you whatever you got in

111
00:08:35.879 --> 00:08:39.279
the backyard, tell me, because
I need to come to your house and

112
00:08:39.320 --> 00:08:43.320
get some of your fruit or whatever
you drink it or eating in the backyard.

113
00:08:43.559 --> 00:08:48.480
She was extremely alert. She was
she had a pepp in her step,

114
00:08:48.799 --> 00:08:50.879
she had us laughing and everything.
It was just great. But I'm

115
00:08:50.879 --> 00:08:56.120
looking at these other couples. So
the happiness that I saw, despite what's

116
00:08:56.240 --> 00:08:58.879
what was on my mind, despite
what I'm hearing, despite the fact that

117
00:08:58.879 --> 00:09:03.720
we in the police sirens and and
hearing what's on the news, I'm looking

118
00:09:03.759 --> 00:09:09.320
at people in real time, in
real life who did not even care about

119
00:09:09.000 --> 00:09:13.399
what they were what was around them. They were happy, and some of

120
00:09:13.399 --> 00:09:16.320
them didn't even have shopping bags.
They'd just say, hey, let's go,

121
00:09:16.519 --> 00:09:20.120
you know, and just holding each
other's holding on to each other tight.

122
00:09:20.240 --> 00:09:24.519
So it is not odd that tonight
would be a lot we can learn

123
00:09:24.519 --> 00:09:28.039
from our older folks. Amen,
this mickey, thank you. Yes,

124
00:09:28.279 --> 00:09:33.120
I mean, I love my seniors. They have their place in our world

125
00:09:33.480 --> 00:09:37.000
to let us remind us how things
used to be, so that we could

126
00:09:37.039 --> 00:09:41.159
be so ever thankful that it's not
that way. It's not. You know,

127
00:09:41.200 --> 00:09:45.519
you got to walk ten miles to
the schoolhouse and hopefully you'll be taught.

128
00:09:45.919 --> 00:09:48.480
Hopefully you could be you can learn
how to read. Hopefully that nobody

129
00:09:48.519 --> 00:09:52.759
will come and attack you at night
because of the color of your skin or

130
00:09:52.759 --> 00:09:56.279
your religion. You know, and
even though some of that's trying to seek

131
00:09:56.399 --> 00:10:01.960
back in here, but nevertheless,
I have to introduce my girl, my

132
00:10:01.440 --> 00:10:07.360
girl, my girl, my empress. This young lady is she's been on

133
00:10:07.399 --> 00:10:11.919
the show before, and at that
time we were talking about fashion and colors

134
00:10:11.960 --> 00:10:16.759
and sizing your shape and everything else. And she can look at you.

135
00:10:16.759 --> 00:10:18.679
You send her a picture, she'll
tell you if your bottom up a bottom

136
00:10:18.720 --> 00:10:22.159
down, if you're an apple or
a pair or you grapes, you got

137
00:10:22.240 --> 00:10:28.120
different shapes going on, and what
colors look good on you. She tell

138
00:10:28.159 --> 00:10:31.159
you the truth now because she's also
a Leo. We were born on the

139
00:10:31.200 --> 00:10:33.320
same day, believe it or not, but we are many years apart,

140
00:10:33.399 --> 00:10:37.960
even though I do not look at
Thank you Jesus. And we just found

141
00:10:37.960 --> 00:10:41.799
out we were both born at night. But again there's a big age difference.

142
00:10:43.039 --> 00:10:46.080
She just don't know it yet.
But anyway, she looks great.

143
00:10:46.320 --> 00:10:50.960
If will you please welcome our guests, our Steve guest, Miss another Romola

144
00:10:50.159 --> 00:10:54.279
Ceo of you have to name your
company because I always get that wrong.

145
00:10:56.080 --> 00:10:58.399

177
00:13:24.200 --> 00:13:28.440
You know. She came over under
the guise of just checking in. She

178
00:13:28.480 --> 00:13:31.559
hadn't seen me in a while.
For a minute, and she goes,

179
00:13:31.600 --> 00:13:33.320
I just want to come and see
how you're doing and can I stop by?

180
00:13:33.399 --> 00:13:35.159
Sure, come on by, you
know. She's like, well,

181
00:13:35.240 --> 00:13:39.279
we're just talking, you know,
and reminding of the old days and all

182
00:13:39.360 --> 00:13:41.000
that. She goes, Oh,
and by the way, I got an

183
00:13:41.000 --> 00:13:43.639
a bit with planning then. So
I'm like, oh, that's good,

184
00:13:45.080 --> 00:13:46.519
and she's like yeah. I said, well, when's gonna be well,

185
00:13:48.080 --> 00:13:50.559
you know, sometimes maybe late February, maybe March or something like that.

186
00:13:50.600 --> 00:13:52.919
We're not sure yet. I said, oh, okay, okay, well

187
00:13:54.000 --> 00:13:54.679
let me know today. She goes, will you have to let you go

188
00:13:54.720 --> 00:13:58.039
today because I need you to host
it? What? What? What?

189
00:14:01.399 --> 00:14:05.000
Wait a minute, wait wait,
I'm just I brought her a gift too.

190
00:14:05.240 --> 00:14:09.279
I brought her a gift. It
was a Christmas gift that talk.

191
00:14:09.600 --> 00:14:13.919
It wasn't a trick. It was
just a reminder of why she was perfect

192
00:14:13.960 --> 00:14:16.360
for that position because it said,
what does it say again, thank you

193
00:14:16.399 --> 00:14:24.159
for teaching because you you you're it's
so vital. And no, it was

194
00:14:24.200 --> 00:14:28.320
it was well for the gift was
separate, but it just everything floated.

195
00:14:28.399 --> 00:14:31.440
She forgot that. We had the
conversation on our brid breakfast i mean birthday

196
00:14:31.480 --> 00:14:35.679
lunch back in August. But it
was just a little tinkle in my brain.

197
00:14:35.759 --> 00:14:39.200
Me and Leash, me and Celia
were just playing around with the idea.

198
00:14:39.600 --> 00:14:43.159
And so once we started really planning
it a little more, I said,

199
00:14:43.159 --> 00:14:46.320
oh, let me go ahead and
prepare this grave as we call her

200
00:14:46.320 --> 00:14:52.840
here. And then she reminded me
of Women's History Month and I said,

201
00:14:52.879 --> 00:14:58.039
you know what, this sounds perfect
because it wasn't a trapped. It was

202
00:14:58.080 --> 00:15:03.519
a call and that's what but it
was. And yes, it wasn't a

203
00:15:03.600 --> 00:15:07.440
trap. It was a calling because
I literally had people in my mind for

204
00:15:07.559 --> 00:15:11.720
things and you were that's it.
It was a calling. It wasn't a

205
00:15:11.759 --> 00:15:15.879
trap. Okay, bye bye.
So why is it that you're doing this?

206
00:15:16.000 --> 00:15:18.759
What? What? What brought this
up? I mean, we know

207
00:15:18.840 --> 00:15:22.279
that everybody's going through right now.
We know everybody's going through, and happiness

208
00:15:22.360 --> 00:15:26.480
is really kind of not something people
are thinking about anymore right now. They're

209
00:15:26.519 --> 00:15:31.080
just trying to live. They're trying
to survive. Unfortunately, they're going from

210
00:15:31.159 --> 00:15:35.360
paycheck to paycheck. They're trying to
make ends meet that will not meet because

211
00:15:35.399 --> 00:15:41.000
they haven't met. You know,
we're losing lives. Lady was talking about,

212
00:15:41.039 --> 00:15:46.679
you know, how her sons have
been killed retrospectively and just all kinds

213
00:15:46.720 --> 00:15:50.679
of things are going on right now, and people are not waking up.

214
00:15:50.720 --> 00:15:54.039
There are more funerals being planned right
now. Funeral homes on do funerals on

215
00:15:54.120 --> 00:15:58.679
Saturdays and Sundays anymore. They're doing
them on Sundays in lieu of church.

216
00:15:58.039 --> 00:16:00.720
They're doing it on a week day, you know, and stuff like that.

217
00:16:00.799 --> 00:16:07.080
So why this, mis Weelda?
Why why are we talking? Why?

218
00:16:07.080 --> 00:16:10.159
Why? Why now? And what
was the whole? You know,

219
00:16:10.200 --> 00:16:11.679
what's the event? And what do
you hope to get from this? What

220
00:16:11.720 --> 00:16:15.600
do we hope? What's the outcome
we're hoping for? So I named two

221
00:16:15.600 --> 00:16:21.080
of my two of my people.
I named you miss Gray. Actually I

222
00:16:21.080 --> 00:16:23.840
say three. I named you Miss
Gray. I named miss Kay and I'm

223
00:16:23.960 --> 00:16:29.360
named Celia. And so I don't
know if you remember me saying it's a

224
00:16:29.399 --> 00:16:33.840
calling, because it's part that I
said. Each one of y'all are playing.

225
00:16:34.399 --> 00:16:38.320
Cilia and I are planning the event. Celia has a history of doing

226
00:16:38.399 --> 00:16:44.000
events. Solia wants to get back
into the event planning the world boom.

227
00:16:44.200 --> 00:16:48.480
So you here goes an event.
Let's think about it. Miss Gray got

228
00:16:48.480 --> 00:16:52.919
a beautiful podcast, you know,
I'm saying. She Oh, it's gonna

229
00:16:52.960 --> 00:16:59.720
be a Renee Dynamic in Orlando,
Florida. So yes, miss Gray,

230
00:17:00.240 --> 00:17:03.279
you know what I'm saying. She's
she's an author, she's a host,

231
00:17:03.519 --> 00:17:08.960
she's a podcaster, she's all these
wonderful things. It just fits miss Kay

232
00:17:10.839 --> 00:17:15.640
over their hair. Why not promote
her and she These are just three of

233
00:17:15.759 --> 00:17:22.599
a bunch of women that I know. Renee's dynamic, mister and missus Renee,

234
00:17:22.599 --> 00:17:26.680
I'm sorry, she here and Rin
she Renee there are self defense teachers.

235
00:17:26.000 --> 00:17:30.960
We were sitting me and Celia.
We attend the gym ms Wren.

236
00:17:30.119 --> 00:17:36.200
She Renee was my personal trainer.
She helped me lose seventy pounds and so

237
00:17:37.000 --> 00:17:38.960
again seventy one Actually, if I
want to be if I want to be

238
00:17:40.039 --> 00:17:42.279
honest, so we'll put that one
pound on it. Do I put that

239
00:17:42.319 --> 00:17:47.400
one pound on it? Because MAYD
and so so Yeah, so you just

240
00:17:47.440 --> 00:17:52.160
put it in so as I was
saying, yes, So she helped me

241
00:17:52.319 --> 00:17:56.839
lose weight, and she's all about
women empowerment and so it was really about

242
00:17:56.839 --> 00:18:00.039
the circle, the circle of women
that I have around me. I have

243
00:18:00.160 --> 00:18:03.000
a friend that does suits and treats. I had to put her. She's

244
00:18:03.000 --> 00:18:07.720
an Axpetician that's women's care, taking
care of yourself, loving yourself, giving

245
00:18:07.720 --> 00:18:14.279
yourself good things. I have someone
that's amazing at decorating, she is starting

246
00:18:14.359 --> 00:18:17.599
up her business. She needed a
platform. Put her out there. We

247
00:18:17.680 --> 00:18:22.559
have Dressed for success, women that
are empowering other women who I have basically

248
00:18:22.759 --> 00:18:26.880
you know, are restarting their life, you know, for many different reasons.

249
00:18:27.440 --> 00:18:32.000
Put them out there. So it
was basically about getting a circle of

250
00:18:32.000 --> 00:18:34.720
women by honestly, because I'm blessed
with a wonderful circle of women, So

251
00:18:34.759 --> 00:18:37.559
I want to share y'all with other
women. So that's why I invited,

252
00:18:37.599 --> 00:18:41.880
That's why I created, That's why
I sat with Celia, and I wanted

253
00:18:41.920 --> 00:18:45.200
all these talents to be in one
space so that we can show it to

254
00:18:45.240 --> 00:18:49.559
everybody else. And as far as
the Day of Happiness, I definitely understand

255
00:18:51.039 --> 00:18:56.359
with everything women supporting women, encouraging
women, I definitely understand, you know,

256
00:18:56.400 --> 00:19:00.160
with everything going on in the world, how people can be focused on

257
00:19:00.200 --> 00:19:04.160
the sadness. But if you can
be grateful, if you can be thankful,

258
00:19:04.400 --> 00:19:07.160
but even just the truth, that
ain't got to be a lot of

259
00:19:07.160 --> 00:19:11.240
truth, just the truth of what
you have, whether it is having a

260
00:19:11.279 --> 00:19:17.039
circle of women around you. You
would be surprised how much more blessings you

261
00:19:17.079 --> 00:19:21.799
can get from just that one grateful
thankfulness, you know, from even being

262
00:19:21.880 --> 00:19:25.960
able to have a position that you
enjoy. I'm blessed to the point where

263
00:19:26.000 --> 00:19:29.200
I now have a position where I
could just say, you know what,

264
00:19:29.200 --> 00:19:30.960
I need an hour off so I
can get on the podcast and talk to

265
00:19:32.000 --> 00:19:37.319
my friends, and then I'll go
back and just be thankful for that and

266
00:19:37.480 --> 00:19:41.599
just living that gratefulness and that happiness. So why wouldn't I want to share

267
00:19:41.599 --> 00:19:44.559
that with other women, Women that
I love, women that I appreciate,

268
00:19:45.000 --> 00:19:47.799
and sometimes, like you said,
they may be going through one of those

269
00:19:47.839 --> 00:19:51.920
tragic situations. But as I've been
growing this last year, I've been working

270
00:19:51.960 --> 00:19:56.200
on my own self for my own
self care. I realized that happened,

271
00:19:56.240 --> 00:20:02.559
not happening, it happened, and
once we accept that, we deal with

272
00:20:02.599 --> 00:20:06.200
it, we move on. It
can start being more happy, can be

273
00:20:06.279 --> 00:20:08.200
more joyful, we can be more
thankful. We don't forget about it,

274
00:20:08.440 --> 00:20:12.200
we just live and grow from it. Amen, Well, thank you for

275
00:20:12.279 --> 00:20:18.720
that. I have to share this. I've been thanking her since I've been

276
00:20:18.799 --> 00:20:25.720
home and since I've been in recovery
but because of our love for each other

277
00:20:25.759 --> 00:20:30.599
and our appreciation for each other,
she's always supported me. We were both

278
00:20:30.920 --> 00:20:34.720
attended the same nail technician and we
would just iudly talk while we were waiting

279
00:20:34.720 --> 00:20:37.799
to be serviced and things, and
that's how we found out we have we

280
00:20:37.839 --> 00:20:41.680
share the same birthday. And then
next thing she knew, I ended up

281
00:20:41.680 --> 00:20:45.960
in the hospital. And you know, I don't want to get too moshi

282
00:20:47.000 --> 00:20:51.400
here, but you know she was
not coming to that hospital. She would

283
00:20:51.440 --> 00:20:53.880
never come. She about I would
never go into the hospital again because of

284
00:20:53.880 --> 00:20:57.880
a tragedy she experienced. And when
she found out I was there, she

285
00:20:59.359 --> 00:21:03.480
came through the doors and and she
shared with me, you know, I

286
00:21:03.519 --> 00:21:08.119
was unconscious and no one's never seen
me. Many people did not want to

287
00:21:08.160 --> 00:21:11.839
come up to the hospital to see
me because of the state that I was

288
00:21:11.880 --> 00:21:15.640
in. They knew me as happy, go lucky, always a smile in

289
00:21:15.680 --> 00:21:19.839
the room and everything, and folks
felt that they could not see me in

290
00:21:19.920 --> 00:21:26.839
the state that But she pushed through
that day and said, according to correct

291
00:21:26.839 --> 00:21:29.880
me. If I'm wrong, Lord, what can I do for her?

292
00:21:30.039 --> 00:21:33.720
What can I do? And she
said, well, you know what at

293
00:21:33.720 --> 00:21:38.000
LISTA used to do these podcasts.
Maybe she needs to hear her own voice.

294
00:21:40.400 --> 00:21:42.960
She's the one I've talked about this
over time, but she's the one

295
00:21:44.039 --> 00:21:48.000
that took her phone and found some
of my old what you Know podcasts and

296
00:21:48.039 --> 00:21:55.119
played it for me, played it
in my ear, and you know the

297
00:21:55.240 --> 00:22:02.759
story is, you know I'm here
today. So sometimes it takes that special

298
00:22:02.799 --> 00:22:07.799
person who's not been identified. You
don't know, you wouldn't know what somebody's

299
00:22:07.799 --> 00:22:12.279
gone through, you don't know what
somebody would do for you. But the

300
00:22:12.359 --> 00:22:18.599
Lord was on her and she was
being guided by him, and here she

301
00:22:18.920 --> 00:22:25.759
now today. You know, it's
creating an event for other women whom some

302
00:22:26.079 --> 00:22:32.079
we got guests coming in and people
who are gonna be coming as guests that

303
00:22:32.160 --> 00:22:37.400
we don't even know who they are, but they're seeing the advertisement everywhere and

304
00:22:37.440 --> 00:22:41.079
we're telling everybody, come on as
you are, come on, We've got

305
00:22:41.079 --> 00:22:48.000
something a little bit for everybody.
So I want everybody to find their happiness.

306
00:22:48.440 --> 00:22:52.960
This is for our audience too,
Mainly. I know you're going through

307
00:22:52.960 --> 00:22:56.720
things. I know it could be
tough. I know you can't even see

308
00:22:56.759 --> 00:23:00.000
the light at the end of a
time, you can't even see the tonnel.

309
00:23:00.240 --> 00:23:04.480
But just know, because of your
believing in God, Jesus and the

310
00:23:04.519 --> 00:23:11.559
Holy Spirit. The light is there
and you will soon see it. But

311
00:23:11.599 --> 00:23:15.519
you got to push through those obstacles. You got to push through that darkness

312
00:23:15.160 --> 00:23:21.440
and know that Jesus came to save
us. He is the light of life.

313
00:23:22.039 --> 00:23:27.359
He came so that we could be
set free and have eternal life in

314
00:23:27.480 --> 00:23:30.599
him. So I'm not gonna talk. I mean, my other co host

315
00:23:30.680 --> 00:23:33.000
do talk, you know, and
stuff like that. So I'm gonna be

316
00:23:33.079 --> 00:23:37.799
quiet and let y'all amen, y'all, let you all do some talking.

317
00:23:37.880 --> 00:23:41.400
This sounds oh country Sea, thank
you, God, bless you. I'm

318
00:23:41.440 --> 00:23:44.359
thinking we're gonna take it on the
road in the future. I could see

319
00:23:44.359 --> 00:23:48.039
that. You know, we had
the Virginia, you know, we had

320
00:23:48.119 --> 00:23:52.039
we had them Palm Bay. You
know, we had we take it on

321
00:23:52.079 --> 00:23:55.960
the road because this is needed.
And I know people are doing things in

322
00:23:56.480 --> 00:24:00.480
different states and cities and things like
that, but we hey, there's more,

323
00:24:00.880 --> 00:24:03.680
there's more to reach. There's more
to reach. Everybody. Anybody come

324
00:24:03.680 --> 00:24:12.599
on and say trained has to beguel. Yeah, okay, already I was

325
00:24:12.640 --> 00:24:18.400
trying to see so, I mean, this is exciting. I wish I

326
00:24:18.440 --> 00:24:22.880
were able to come down. You
know, this is oh my god,

327
00:24:22.960 --> 00:24:27.079
that's the part I really miss,
the capital collaborations and the initiatives, community

328
00:24:27.119 --> 00:24:33.960
initiatives, peace. You know.
I haven't delved much into that, you

329
00:24:33.960 --> 00:24:37.480
know, being back up in Virginia, but that is a passion, you

330
00:24:37.519 --> 00:24:42.359
know, just seeing folks come together
bringing resources and and and it's so important

331
00:24:42.400 --> 00:24:45.519
to find your happy space, you
know, things that make you happy,

332
00:24:47.160 --> 00:24:52.039
feel good inside outside, things that
you can share with other people. And

333
00:24:52.119 --> 00:24:56.359
so that's what I'm you know,
trying to resort back to doing some things

334
00:24:56.440 --> 00:25:02.880
that make me happy. And I
was doing some reading cards at one time,

335
00:25:03.440 --> 00:25:06.400
just as a coping skill, you
know, just something to do as

336
00:25:06.440 --> 00:25:11.440
I care for my dad. So
I'm about to launch that or do some

337
00:25:11.640 --> 00:25:14.759
things with dad just just to feel
good, you know, as I get

338
00:25:14.799 --> 00:25:19.079
acclimated in this new journey of life. So looking forward to it and hopefully

339
00:25:19.200 --> 00:25:27.200
planning some things down you know,
up in the VA Way. So I'll

340
00:25:27.240 --> 00:25:30.880
say, with searching for happiness,
I mean, you just have to be

341
00:25:30.920 --> 00:25:33.960
able to step out of your comfort
zone with things and being open for new

342
00:25:33.960 --> 00:25:37.839
things. I mean, I know, I've started traveling at a young age

343
00:25:37.880 --> 00:25:42.960
and I love it. So therefore
just you know, keep exploring and trying

344
00:25:42.960 --> 00:25:47.559
to find different things that you would
never do. But try it out.

345
00:25:47.559 --> 00:25:49.680
You may not know if you actually
get into it, become a hobby,

346
00:25:49.799 --> 00:25:56.480
whatever the case may be. But
just be open. Well I have to

347
00:25:56.920 --> 00:26:03.799
I have to say that we we
what I love about this and I feel

348
00:26:03.799 --> 00:26:12.200
like you're actually witnessing here what the
Body of Christ really is. Everybody here

349
00:26:14.480 --> 00:26:22.640
has actually contributed in a particular aspect
of someone else's life and has encouraged them,

350
00:26:22.839 --> 00:26:30.279
empowered them, helped them heal.
And this is exactly what the Bible

351
00:26:30.359 --> 00:26:34.720
talks about. And what's amazing about
the whole thing is here that we didn't

352
00:26:34.720 --> 00:26:40.640
have to say. The Bible says. What we are seeing here is the

353
00:26:40.759 --> 00:26:49.920
exact example of what it is to
be connected to the body and knowing that

354
00:26:51.079 --> 00:26:59.400
the head of the body is Christ
and listening to what Winilda did to Miss

355
00:26:59.519 --> 00:27:07.039
Gray to help her, and she
stepped out of her comfort zone to help

356
00:27:07.079 --> 00:27:14.440
out another member, and this is
exactly what it's all about. We just

357
00:27:14.559 --> 00:27:22.039
don't know exactly where we are in
our lives, and this is a true

358
00:27:22.079 --> 00:27:27.720
testimony of what the Holy Spirit can
do in regards to the words that need

359
00:27:27.799 --> 00:27:34.599
to be said the actions that need
to be taken the responsibilities of encouraging somebody

360
00:27:34.599 --> 00:27:41.319
else, and that in itself is
a testimony. And just listening to all

361
00:27:41.400 --> 00:27:49.200
this, you know, it just
is encouraging to hear because if the audience

362
00:27:49.279 --> 00:27:55.559
is going through this, look at
what technology is doing. We're putting everybody

363
00:27:55.599 --> 00:28:00.720
together giving a testimony and it's going
out. So we're doing what the Lord

364
00:28:00.759 --> 00:28:07.160
told us to do, which is
to deliver the good news. So you

365
00:28:07.200 --> 00:28:12.279
can't tell me that Christ doesn't exist, when here we have the example of

366
00:28:12.319 --> 00:28:18.839
how Christ works. So you know, I I prov you women. You

367
00:28:18.839 --> 00:28:29.279
you women are are truly a a
a very much needed part of life because

368
00:28:29.559 --> 00:28:36.039
you bring something to the table that
I can't speak for all men, but

369
00:28:36.119 --> 00:28:45.200
I'll speak for me, but we
it's it's it's a it's a needed partnership,

370
00:28:45.720 --> 00:28:51.160
let me use that word, A
much needed partnership because you're able to

371
00:28:51.319 --> 00:28:56.880
fill in the pockets so we can
be able to say, wow, I

372
00:28:56.960 --> 00:29:00.039
understand now, or wow, I
see where you're coming from, so we

373
00:29:00.119 --> 00:29:07.920
can be able to to be empathetic
in what's going on. So thank you,

374
00:29:07.720 --> 00:29:11.359
thank you for bringing me on today
and and and hearing this, and

375
00:29:11.359 --> 00:29:17.839
and listening to your testimonies, because
this is what my cousin gave me.

376
00:29:17.839 --> 00:29:21.359
A shirt that says pastor warning.
Anything that you say can be used in

377
00:29:21.400 --> 00:29:25.240
a sermon. This is a great
example of how I can be able to

378
00:29:25.440 --> 00:29:30.440
utilize this in a sermon. Amen. And and wherever you're going, we

379
00:29:30.519 --> 00:29:36.480
can, we can. This is
doable. This is doable. It's not

380
00:29:36.640 --> 00:29:38.480
taking a whole lot of money.
And she just start off with, you

381
00:29:38.519 --> 00:29:42.759
know, five thousand dollars budget.
You know, people will sit and wait

382
00:29:42.960 --> 00:29:45.480
and say, well, I want
to do this, but I don't have

383
00:29:45.559 --> 00:29:48.680
the money, I don't have the
location. Well, guess what. She's

384
00:29:48.720 --> 00:29:52.680
at her gym that she works out
at. The owner of the gym was

385
00:29:52.680 --> 00:29:53.960
like, yeah, what what do
you need me to do? You know

386
00:29:55.079 --> 00:29:56.039
what what you know, how do
you need me to set it up?

387
00:29:56.319 --> 00:30:00.359
It was already there. You've got
resources already there, and you've got the

388
00:30:00.519 --> 00:30:03.839
trust that when God gives you an
idea. And I was just sharing this

389
00:30:03.880 --> 00:30:08.279
with somebody recently last night that you
know, He's already given it to us.

390
00:30:08.960 --> 00:30:12.400
The things that we specialize in,
He already put them in us when

391
00:30:12.440 --> 00:30:18.119
he made us so wonderfully in his
image. It's not your pastor. Miguel

392
00:30:18.200 --> 00:30:19.960
didn't say grow up and say,
you know what, when I get older,

393
00:30:21.000 --> 00:30:22.359
I'm gonna be a pastor one day. And maybe he did. I

394
00:30:22.359 --> 00:30:25.880
don't know if he was coached that
way as a child. Okay, see

395
00:30:25.880 --> 00:30:30.319
there we go. Trey not knowing
never said you know what she I know

396
00:30:30.519 --> 00:30:33.920
as a child, she probably said
I'm gonna help people. But to basically

397
00:30:34.000 --> 00:30:37.000
say I'll be a social worker with
doctor, you know, with all the

398
00:30:37.079 --> 00:30:41.640
experience and everything, I'm gonna be
a community advocate before we even knew what

399
00:30:41.640 --> 00:30:45.640
that word was. Yeah, and
when nowda she is? I mean she

400
00:30:45.960 --> 00:30:49.480
knows fashion. You don't, don't
get your feelings hurt. If I prefer

401
00:30:49.559 --> 00:30:52.359
if he's like, you know what
I need a what do we call that?

402
00:30:53.119 --> 00:30:56.000
When he when they go and shop, they shop for the star.

403
00:30:56.160 --> 00:31:03.319
They shot you free y uhuh?
Personal stylist. Yeah, if you need

404
00:31:03.359 --> 00:31:06.400
personal styling and I refer her to
you, she's gonna give it to you

405
00:31:06.440 --> 00:31:10.160
as is. You want to wear
all the reds and the black? Now

406
00:31:10.240 --> 00:31:12.440
what you're doing? No, you
know, but that's a gift in her.

407
00:31:12.480 --> 00:31:17.920
She loves color, She knows color, she knows fashion, and should

408
00:31:18.039 --> 00:31:19.680
she could be in La right now. She could be in New York right

409
00:31:19.720 --> 00:31:23.839
now, you know, working fashion
shows. She's gonna do a fashion show.

410
00:31:25.039 --> 00:31:27.640
You know, nothing, but God
already. I hope people realize it's

411
00:31:27.680 --> 00:31:32.000
already in you. This is not
something new, you know. I was

412
00:31:32.039 --> 00:31:34.160
just talking about leadership the other day. That's why I say leadership is born.

413
00:31:34.440 --> 00:31:37.160
No one ever told me I was
a leader. No one ever told

414
00:31:37.160 --> 00:31:41.480
me that I just had the gift
of projection. I was talking to a

415
00:31:41.480 --> 00:31:45.119
couple over in Hawaii, they're living
in Hawaii now, and I said,

416
00:31:45.119 --> 00:31:48.799
you know, no one would have
known that I went through what I would

417
00:31:48.799 --> 00:31:52.519
go through, all half of the
things I've gone through in my life.

418
00:31:52.920 --> 00:31:56.440
No one would have told me after
getting out of the hospital that I would

419
00:31:56.480 --> 00:32:01.920
have to marry a man and a
woman online. And then almost a year

420
00:32:02.000 --> 00:32:07.279
later, they want to have the
wedding in person, and I go and

421
00:32:07.319 --> 00:32:13.200
purchase a microphone through Amazon, get
there to the event, get my nerves

422
00:32:13.359 --> 00:32:17.240
up to get to the event,
only for it to not work. But

423
00:32:17.319 --> 00:32:22.559
did we miss a moment in the
wedding? No, we started on time.

424
00:32:22.680 --> 00:32:24.240
And guess what I said, Can
everybody hear me? They're like,

425
00:32:24.480 --> 00:32:30.400
yes, I said, let's get
it, you know. So he created

426
00:32:30.480 --> 00:32:34.559
us wonderfully. He created us how
we're looking, and he put us in

427
00:32:34.559 --> 00:32:37.160
the families that we needed to be
in and everything else. And now you've

428
00:32:37.200 --> 00:32:43.240
got to find your happiness beyond people. You got to find your happiness beyond

429
00:32:43.359 --> 00:32:46.119
making money. You got to find
your happiness beyond being in the right church.

430
00:32:46.480 --> 00:32:51.000
You've got to find your happiness and
finding it. I'm telling you A

431
00:32:51.039 --> 00:32:59.680
big way to do that is to
have a faith that is on just unbelievable

432
00:33:00.599 --> 00:33:04.680
where people will look at you like
you're crazy. Will people will force you,

433
00:33:04.839 --> 00:33:10.720
try to force you to deny the
Christ and your faith for you to

434
00:33:10.720 --> 00:33:14.680
be able to step away and say
no, I'm gonna stand on this island

435
00:33:14.680 --> 00:33:19.680
for a minute, because after a
while you won't be alone. You won't

436
00:33:19.720 --> 00:33:22.920
be alone. You think you are, but you won't be because God will

437
00:33:22.920 --> 00:33:27.640
see you the people that you need. And I'm believing God that you know

438
00:33:28.000 --> 00:33:31.240
Saturday is gonna be off the chain. I don't know what he's gonna do.

439
00:33:31.680 --> 00:33:36.000
I don't know the lives he's gonna
change. I don't know which way

440
00:33:36.039 --> 00:33:38.559
it's gonna go. I know it's
gonna be peaceful. I know that everybody

441
00:33:38.559 --> 00:33:43.400
that needs to be there will be
there. Everybody that's coming to get there's

442
00:33:43.400 --> 00:33:46.839
some of them that they paid their
last. They're paying their last to buy

443
00:33:46.880 --> 00:33:51.920
a ticket. They got rent.
They got to look right. The first

444
00:33:52.000 --> 00:33:54.880
is right around the corner. But
something is telling them, I need to

445
00:33:54.920 --> 00:33:59.839
go to this. I need to
go to this. I need this for

446
00:34:00.160 --> 00:34:02.839
me. I need this for me. And if I don't get what I

447
00:34:02.920 --> 00:34:07.519
need, well then you know what
I did. It wasn't meant to be.

448
00:34:07.559 --> 00:34:10.840
But that's not gonna be the case
because most already see it in the

449
00:34:10.840 --> 00:34:14.880
spirit. Most people coming they think
they're coming to an event. Oh this

450
00:34:14.960 --> 00:34:20.039
is gonna be cute. Okay,
I'm gonna show you cute. You're gonna

451
00:34:20.079 --> 00:34:23.599
get healed. And Pastor, thank
you for mentioning about the healing pieces,

452
00:34:23.920 --> 00:34:29.079
because the Lord was just mentioned to
me that when it even was healed,

453
00:34:29.960 --> 00:34:36.639
when she was determined to put aside
her feelings to come see me, I'm

454
00:34:36.639 --> 00:34:45.519
gonna do it. She doing it
mm hm, and to stand there until

455
00:34:45.639 --> 00:34:52.599
she's like Jesus showed her what to
do. She overcome her doubts, her

456
00:34:52.679 --> 00:35:01.119
feelings because she was not ever going
to step into that hospital voluntarily. But

457
00:35:01.239 --> 00:35:05.519
She put that to the side and
said, no, I have to I

458
00:35:05.559 --> 00:35:09.280
gotta do this if I don't do
anything else. And my daughter was very

459
00:35:09.320 --> 00:35:15.760
careful about people coming to see me, especially when I was unconscious. So

460
00:35:15.800 --> 00:35:21.239
if he it was a healing for
you, and that's what he does.

461
00:35:21.800 --> 00:35:24.440
We think we're doing something pastor you're
getting ready to go. You know,

462
00:35:25.159 --> 00:35:30.760
traveler across the seas, fly across
the seas, and you're gonna be gone

463
00:35:30.760 --> 00:35:37.320
for weeks or days. You're going
because you've been asked to come, but

464
00:35:37.440 --> 00:35:44.599
the lives that you're gonna touch people
won't forget this. Where you've been tray

465
00:35:44.760 --> 00:35:47.119
every client that comes in, whether
they're schedule or not, you see them

466
00:35:47.159 --> 00:35:53.920
anyway. You have an encouraging word
for all of your coworkers. Anyway.

467
00:35:54.039 --> 00:36:00.840
You are tired. You just spent
years taking care of your day and being

468
00:36:00.880 --> 00:36:04.440
an advocate for your father. That's
no joke for those of us who are

469
00:36:04.440 --> 00:36:09.280
caregivers or who have been caregivers.
And you could have walked away. You

470
00:36:09.280 --> 00:36:14.519
could say, you know what,
I'm not helping another person, but it's

471
00:36:14.559 --> 00:36:19.679
not you, that's not you.
You could have chosen a different field.

472
00:36:20.239 --> 00:36:23.880
You could have left social service behind
and the wind in the dust. But

473
00:36:24.000 --> 00:36:30.840
that's not you and solutions. Focus
has got to come forward, whether it's

474
00:36:30.880 --> 00:36:37.320
greeting cards or just happy you know, just just happy conversation. It's got

475
00:36:37.360 --> 00:36:38.920
to come forward. Let me talk
to my audience out there country, see

476
00:36:39.400 --> 00:36:45.559
Misty, all of y'all. So
cil ya, everybody listening, rebel,

477
00:36:46.360 --> 00:36:52.119
you got a call on your life. We need everybody on the front line.

478
00:36:52.400 --> 00:36:54.480
Everybody on the front line. You
see what's going on around us.

479
00:36:58.800 --> 00:37:02.360
You straightened it up. Jesus told
the disciples if you go, you're going

480
00:37:02.440 --> 00:37:07.760
to go two by two. Take
no purse with you. If you're received,

481
00:37:07.400 --> 00:37:12.840
enjoy yourself I'm paraphrasing. But if
you are not received, dust the

482
00:37:12.840 --> 00:37:15.199
food, that the sand off,
the dirt off your heels, and keep

483
00:37:15.239 --> 00:37:19.880
moving. And that's what happiness is
about. We keep moving. Yes,

484
00:37:19.920 --> 00:37:22.599
there's some bumps, Yes, there's
some obstacles. Yes, there's some challenges,

485
00:37:22.639 --> 00:37:27.679
there's a travail. They're all trials
and errors. There's oh I didn't

486
00:37:27.679 --> 00:37:30.920
get this right, Oh yeah I
got it right. Yeah yeah. But

487
00:37:31.239 --> 00:37:36.239
the whole kid is the Bible says, you know you're gonna fall seventy times

488
00:37:36.239 --> 00:37:39.559
seven. Well, if you keep
falling, up to seventy times that men.

489
00:37:39.559 --> 00:37:50.360
At some point you kept getting up, keep getting up, find your

490
00:37:50.400 --> 00:37:53.239
happiness, and it's not about you. You and you won't get an amen

491
00:37:53.320 --> 00:37:59.360
from everybody. You won't get an
amen from the family. You won't get

492
00:37:59.360 --> 00:38:02.519
an amen from your adult kids.
You won't get an amen for your in

493
00:38:02.639 --> 00:38:07.800
laws. I feel your words.
This is oh thank you country. See

494
00:38:07.119 --> 00:38:12.599
yeah, So get over trying to
get somebody's permission. Make sure you check

495
00:38:12.639 --> 00:38:15.000
with God. Lord. If this
is the route you have for me,

496
00:38:15.119 --> 00:38:20.239
then you got to give me strength. And I told you I'm in the

497
00:38:20.280 --> 00:38:22.079
hospital and I'm like, Lord,
I'm telling God, I got to close

498
00:38:22.119 --> 00:38:24.480
my office, I got to call
this person I got to do And God

499
00:38:24.519 --> 00:38:30.519
said, no, I need you
to rest. And then weeks later he

500
00:38:30.559 --> 00:38:34.960
said, now I need every time
that OT and PT personnel get you up.

501
00:38:35.000 --> 00:38:37.079
I need you to sit in that
chair for fifteen minutes extra every day

502
00:38:37.079 --> 00:38:43.920
so you can go home even if
the sun went down. I even I

503
00:38:43.960 --> 00:38:46.000
had to eat my bed to feed
me my dinner because I could not use

504
00:38:46.039 --> 00:38:51.440
a fork because my hands were bandaged. But I said, okay, I

505
00:38:51.480 --> 00:38:53.079
got fifty. I'm looking at the
clock. I need a clock in my

506
00:38:53.199 --> 00:38:58.400
room because I got to sit up
at fifteen minutes extra a day until it's

507
00:38:58.440 --> 00:39:04.159
time for me to be discharbed.
So you push forward. You pushed through.

508
00:39:05.440 --> 00:39:08.559
But also remember now, the devil, for those of you who are

509
00:39:08.599 --> 00:39:15.800
believers, the devil is sitting there
waiting, just waiting for you to mess

510
00:39:15.880 --> 00:39:20.920
up, just an if of a
degree, an inch of doubt, an

511
00:39:20.960 --> 00:39:23.800
if of uhh. I'll stop you. If you start singing to me,

512
00:39:24.440 --> 00:39:27.880
well, how are you doing well, I'll stop right there, stop right

513
00:39:27.920 --> 00:39:30.159
there. I don't want to hear
the singing. No no, and I

514
00:39:30.159 --> 00:39:35.920
said yes, and are you doing
good? Yes or no? That's all

515
00:39:35.920 --> 00:39:37.960
we need. Well, no,
I'm not okay, We're gonna pray.

516
00:39:37.199 --> 00:39:39.079
Let me stop you right there.
I can't. I don't even want to

517
00:39:39.119 --> 00:39:45.599
hear it. I don't want to
hear it. We pushed forward. We

518
00:39:45.719 --> 00:39:49.400
blessed everybody today. Even at the
mall. I said, God bless you,

519
00:39:50.239 --> 00:39:53.199
and people will turn my God bless
you too. Strangers, we'll never

520
00:39:53.239 --> 00:39:59.280
see each other again. Be safe
out there. Think the only way to

521
00:39:59.320 --> 00:40:02.760
go is forward, no matter what. Thank you, mickey. But sometimes

522
00:40:02.760 --> 00:40:07.239
we do get stuck because you look
like there's no way out. Oh my

523
00:40:07.320 --> 00:40:09.119
god, how are we gonna do
this? We all we have to do

524
00:40:09.199 --> 00:40:13.119
is put it on social media.
So those of you and so you better,

525
00:40:13.199 --> 00:40:15.920
you better love and embrace social media. That's the new voice. That's

526
00:40:15.920 --> 00:40:20.960
the new postcard right now, that's
the new letter writing right now, that's

527
00:40:21.000 --> 00:40:24.519
that's this is the way we communicate. And sometimes every now and then I

528
00:40:24.519 --> 00:40:29.559
don't just have my stuff exclusive of
my friends. I open it up to

529
00:40:29.599 --> 00:40:30.920
the public. Jessica and I don't
want to be fouled too much. Best

530
00:40:30.960 --> 00:40:35.599
so people anyway, you know,
I have to open it up so everybody

531
00:40:35.599 --> 00:40:38.800
can glimpse it and say oh,
and then I close it off. But

532
00:40:38.840 --> 00:40:45.400
you gotta embrace social media. We're
on a setting it straight thanks to you

533
00:40:45.440 --> 00:40:51.679
know, talk for a radio and
TV or on a hundred platforms. I

534
00:40:51.679 --> 00:40:55.599
don't even know how many platforms beyond
one hundred there are. But because we

535
00:40:55.679 --> 00:41:01.559
have this one link, it opens
up our base to one hundred platforms,

536
00:41:01.599 --> 00:41:07.440
whether it's radio or TV. You
can see us on zoom or you can

537
00:41:07.519 --> 00:41:13.639
hear us on the radio. That's
God was it my idea, but he

538
00:41:13.719 --> 00:41:16.079
told me, no, I need
you to do this for Kingdom purposes,

539
00:41:17.000 --> 00:41:22.119
not knowing, so we got a
few more minutes. I'm not gonna talk

540
00:41:22.119 --> 00:41:24.239
anymore. When anything you want to
add to this, go for it,

541
00:41:24.440 --> 00:41:30.320
anybody else. Only other thing I
want to add is, you know,

542
00:41:30.519 --> 00:41:34.159
at the end of the day,
the happiness is from Christ, is from

543
00:41:34.239 --> 00:41:37.280
God. And it's once you start
asking God for trust, you start,

544
00:41:37.480 --> 00:41:43.480
you know, searching for faith that
happiness is coming because regardless which way it

545
00:41:43.519 --> 00:41:45.159
turns, once you have that trust
in God, once you have that faith

546
00:41:45.199 --> 00:41:49.039
in God, you know that he
got your back. And so even if

547
00:41:49.079 --> 00:41:52.000
you fall today or you fall tomorrow, you know he's going to lift you

548
00:41:52.039 --> 00:41:55.960
back up, He's gonna get you. Okay. So whatever anybody tries to

549
00:41:55.960 --> 00:41:59.039
do to tear you down, you
don't need to focus on it. You

550
00:41:59.159 --> 00:42:01.760
just focus on the Lord and you
keep it moving. So that's that's my

551
00:42:01.880 --> 00:42:07.519
main thing in its work. I'm
not gonna pretend like taking you know,

552
00:42:07.679 --> 00:42:12.440
finding that happiness, finding that self
care, finding that love is not gonna

553
00:42:12.440 --> 00:42:15.199
be work. It's an everyday thing. It's a everyday practice. And I'm

554
00:42:15.239 --> 00:42:19.280
happy that she wrote that. Amen. So yeah, it's just it's just

555
00:42:19.320 --> 00:42:22.840
about that continuous trust and faith in
God and loving and smiling, wake up,

556
00:42:22.920 --> 00:42:27.119
smile, thank him. Do the
first thing in the morning and just

557
00:42:27.320 --> 00:42:34.800
keep it moving. Yeah, I
was just going to very well said.

558
00:42:34.840 --> 00:42:37.880
I was just gonna add to uh, you know, staying prayer for and

559
00:42:38.440 --> 00:42:44.000
trust in God, but also surrounding
yourself with people that are gonna uplift you

560
00:42:44.840 --> 00:42:47.360
and being mindful of what you take
in, you know, whether that be

561
00:42:47.599 --> 00:42:52.559
through television, radio, music,
other people's thoughts and things. You have

562
00:42:52.639 --> 00:42:57.280
to limit that so that you don't
get distracted on what he wants you to

563
00:42:57.320 --> 00:43:00.400
do. And so the more you
put more positive the stuff in, less

564
00:43:00.440 --> 00:43:05.000
negative will come out. And so
that's the journey that I'm taking now.

565
00:43:05.159 --> 00:43:07.400
So and you can't tell it.
Everybody's not going to join you on your

566
00:43:07.480 --> 00:43:12.159
ride. Everybody's not gonna support you, but you find those few people,

567
00:43:12.280 --> 00:43:16.400
one person. It takes one person
to support you along with yourself to kind

568
00:43:16.400 --> 00:43:19.800
of just you know, drilling in. You can do this. You've got

569
00:43:19.800 --> 00:43:23.719
this guy got you to pour in
to you, and so and leather naysayers

570
00:43:23.760 --> 00:43:34.880
alone, I'll say just I'll say, just to be encouraging. There's a

571
00:43:34.880 --> 00:43:39.360
scripture that I always look over,
and it's when my foot is slipping,

572
00:43:39.400 --> 00:43:44.280
your unfeeling love supports me. So
I go by that all the time when

573
00:43:44.280 --> 00:43:45.920
I feel as if I may be
failing or in the case would be,

574
00:43:46.000 --> 00:43:50.480
I keep my faith in him and
it keeps me going. Just to keep

575
00:43:50.559 --> 00:43:58.639
y'all encouraged and and just to kind
of uh figure back on what Trey was

576
00:43:58.679 --> 00:44:02.159
saying, we gotta stand that.
You know, she said something that not

577
00:44:02.239 --> 00:44:07.000
everybody's going to jump on board,
and she's absolutely right because it's not their

578
00:44:07.079 --> 00:44:14.000
time. But you are going to
be the person that's going to nurture because

579
00:44:14.039 --> 00:44:16.960
when it's not their time, it
may be their time two three years down

580
00:44:16.960 --> 00:44:19.920
the road. And I'm like,
wait a minute, Trey said this,

581
00:44:20.239 --> 00:44:24.360
and now I'm starting to see it, and you did your part. So

582
00:44:24.559 --> 00:44:30.679
it's always a key. It's always
essential that if we say we're Christians,

583
00:44:31.239 --> 00:44:37.800
we have to be the example and
use less words, because when you are

584
00:44:37.880 --> 00:44:44.119
the example, no one can take
away the work that you're doing because of

585
00:44:44.159 --> 00:44:49.280
what your belief is. And miss
Gray, you said it best in one

586
00:44:49.280 --> 00:44:52.320
of our conversations the enemies at work, twenty four hours a day, seven

587
00:44:52.360 --> 00:44:59.239
days a week, we can't be
cute by saying we're a Christian and being

588
00:44:59.239 --> 00:45:02.719
a Christian. Two out of the
