think you think you? Thank you you allowed us to

21
00:01:56.159 --> 00:02:01.480
see another day. They are at least over five entertainers

22
00:02:01.519 --> 00:02:04.640
that we know that we know them by name, that

23
00:02:04.640 --> 00:02:07.920
have been in our household for years doing what they do,

24
00:02:08.000 --> 00:02:10.639
that did not see today. And we pray for their

25
00:02:10.680 --> 00:02:15.360
families for the loss. And even in the world of entertainment,

26
00:02:15.479 --> 00:02:17.840
who's going to replace them? We don't know, but we

27
00:02:17.960 --> 00:02:20.479
just thank you, Father God, that you're giving us another

28
00:02:20.680 --> 00:02:23.360
You gave us another day to allow you to get

29
00:02:23.360 --> 00:02:26.560
the glory, to allow you to be seen. My God,

00:02:40.080 --> 00:02:42.439

38
00:02:51.439 --> 00:02:55.639
put us in a great standing numerically numbers why and

39
00:02:55.719 --> 00:02:58.840
you didn't have to do it. So may God bless y'all. Please.

40
00:02:59.479 --> 00:03:02.800
Now we're gonna get behind the cross. It's about God

It's awesome, awesome, awesome, awesome. So how's your weeks, Ben,

46
00:03:21.439 --> 00:03:24.280
Pastor Miguel. You're getting into the thick of things now,

47
00:03:24.319 --> 00:03:27.360
you're getting into your rotations, your routines. She says, you

48
00:03:27.400 --> 00:03:28.759
don't have made it back here.

49
00:03:29.560 --> 00:03:30.280
I get us.

50
00:03:30.639 --> 00:03:36.759
Oh, okay, but we can't let you go out of

51
00:03:36.800 --> 00:03:38.800
town too much, you know, because when you go out

52
00:03:38.800 --> 00:03:40.919
of town, you go out of town. Man.

53
00:03:41.280 --> 00:03:45.719
So I was ready to come on the show the

54
00:03:45.879 --> 00:03:51.000
day that we got back from the trip. Unfortunately, there

55
00:03:51.080 --> 00:03:55.319
was a gremlin playing around with your electricity, so that

56
00:03:55.520 --> 00:03:58.680
kind of affected that. And then we had Memorial Days.

57
00:03:58.759 --> 00:04:02.599
So I feel like I'm completely off kilter here.

58
00:04:03.240 --> 00:04:11.039
No, not you. Yeah, what trade tray from all the

59
00:04:11.039 --> 00:04:20.439

00:04:20.720 --> 00:04:25.199
and well it's gonna fit in tonight. And it's so

61
00:04:26.079 --> 00:04:28.959
it's just amazing how God puts this together. Hell, it's

62
00:04:29.000 --> 00:04:32.879

and tonight and how things are gonna just fit in

67
00:04:45.000 --> 00:04:47.360
so perfectly. But before we go on, I want to

68
00:04:47.360 --> 00:04:50.720
give some shout outs. Uh. First of all, this summer, guys,

69
00:04:51.199 --> 00:04:55.279
it's here. It's here. There's no there's nothing we can do.

70
00:04:55.639 --> 00:04:58.319
It's here, So we got to make the best of it.

71
00:04:58.399 --> 00:05:00.920
You've got to stay cool, you got the stay hydrated,

72
00:05:02.040 --> 00:05:06.079

73
00:05:06.480 --> 00:05:10.079
and all the anks that go along with it. Some

74
00:05:10.160 --> 00:05:13.000
things are you know, happy because some families will get

75
00:05:13.040 --> 00:05:16.879
together and all that. Butterum it does have its other

76
00:05:16.959 --> 00:05:20.439
side as well. So it's here. Make sure you go

77
00:05:20.560 --> 00:05:25.399
to your hurricane expos in your respective towns cities. It's

78
00:05:25.480 --> 00:05:28.560
worth it. You will walk away with a grab bag

79
00:05:28.600 --> 00:05:31.079
of stuff and some knowledge. Some of them have little

80
00:05:31.120 --> 00:05:34.560
workshops and things like that. A lot of your commissioners,

81
00:05:34.560 --> 00:05:38.839
your mayors will show up, you know, your news reporting people,

82
00:05:38.920 --> 00:05:42.240
they'll be there. So you know, ours is coming up

83
00:05:42.279 --> 00:05:46.000
in June, and I will be there. I expect to

84
00:05:46.040 --> 00:05:47.480
be there and I may take one or two of

85
00:05:47.480 --> 00:05:50.399
the kids, so we can, you know, divide and conquer.

86
00:05:50.839 --> 00:05:53.160
But I always get the most of the goodies, even

87
00:05:53.199 --> 00:05:55.079
though it's in their bag. But you know, but it's

88
00:05:55.079 --> 00:05:58.959
gonna be some good stuff. And I'm just praying, praying, praying.

89
00:05:59.480 --> 00:06:04.600
No energy loss, no, you know, no power outages. Uh, flooding.

90
00:06:04.680 --> 00:06:06.399
We're in a new area. It doesn't it's not a

91
00:06:06.399 --> 00:06:10.040
flood zone. I did check that, but you know, you

92
00:06:10.199 --> 00:06:12.959
just you just never know because a lot of big

93
00:06:13.000 --> 00:06:16.360
trucks ride up and down our street and that's that

94
00:06:16.519 --> 00:06:18.800
decays the roads. But anyway, I'm not going to go

95
00:06:18.839 --> 00:06:21.800

Yeah, I'm not gonna show it. Yeah. I had text her.

122
00:08:03.920 --> 00:08:06.360
I said, hey, you're gonna come home from school right away,

125
00:08:12.040 --> 00:08:14.439
you know, and I could. I was like, oh my god,

126
00:08:14.439 --> 00:08:16.600
I've got a can't tell her. I said no, but

127
00:08:16.639 --> 00:08:18.199
I had to finally tell her. I said, well, the

128
00:08:18.759 --> 00:08:21.199
handbag is here, and I want us both to open it.

129
00:08:21.319 --> 00:08:23.319
I don't want to open it without you because I

130
00:08:23.360 --> 00:08:26.720
got to see your face. And when she opened it,

131
00:08:27.040 --> 00:08:30.399
we're sitting there even even jazz was all into it, like, oh,

132
00:08:30.439 --> 00:08:33.399
what's that? Because that leather smell came out of that box.

133
00:08:35.519 --> 00:08:39.639
That leather smell came out of the box. Even the

134
00:08:39.679 --> 00:08:43.480
producers Clutch made out of New York. I am giving

135
00:08:43.519 --> 00:08:46.720
you a shout out because for a group of people

136
00:08:46.720 --> 00:08:49.960
I've never seen, we talked on the phone, we emailed

137
00:08:49.960 --> 00:08:52.399
back and forth all kinds. They sent us all the

138
00:08:52.519 --> 00:08:54.279
hardware and stuff like that for us to make the

139
00:08:54.399 --> 00:09:00.080
choices from every latch, from every zipper, the line, everything

140
00:09:00.120 --> 00:09:04.360
about it. And it is gorgeous if I do say

141
00:09:04.399 --> 00:09:07.000
so myself. And do you know that bad boy can

142
00:09:07.080 --> 00:09:13.919
sit up congratulation that ah? Yes, So you know because

143
00:09:13.960 --> 00:09:16.279
for us women, we don't put our handbags or our

144
00:09:16.320 --> 00:09:19.000
purses on the floor. I would grab a chair if

145
00:09:19.039 --> 00:09:23.159
I'm at a meeting and put my handbag on the

146
00:09:23.279 --> 00:09:25.759
chair if because if it can't, you know, slide on

147
00:09:25.799 --> 00:09:27.840
the back, I don't put it in the table in

148
00:09:27.840 --> 00:09:29.879
front of me. It's going to go to my side.

149
00:09:29.960 --> 00:09:32.480
And there are times it was the table was so

150
00:09:32.639 --> 00:09:35.639
tight that I actually just put my feet together and

151
00:09:35.679 --> 00:09:38.240
put my handbag and the strap on my knee. But

152
00:09:38.279 --> 00:09:40.919
you're not hitting the floor and this bad boy can

153
00:09:41.039 --> 00:09:44.480
stand up on it. It stood up on the couch. Wow,

154
00:09:44.879 --> 00:09:48.919
it sits on the couch. So it's nice. And the

155
00:09:48.960 --> 00:09:52.159
team said, you know what these colors, y'all did it.

156
00:09:52.519 --> 00:09:55.440
This is so nice what you chose. So that's an honor.

157
00:09:55.600 --> 00:09:58.120
You know, when the producers, the makers of this thing,

158
00:09:58.159 --> 00:10:00.399
who've been at this for a minute, it gives a

159
00:10:00.399 --> 00:10:04.279
compliment and says, oh, wow, like it turned out nice,

160
00:10:04.720 --> 00:10:07.559
you know, so to give God the glory. And now

161
00:10:07.559 --> 00:10:09.559
we got to talk some more business about how much

162
00:10:09.600 --> 00:10:12.279
you know, how much and how many more we're gonna need,

163
00:10:12.279 --> 00:10:15.120
because I'm just gonna do it for dispatch, a limited

164
00:10:15.279 --> 00:10:17.799
edition and that's it, and we're gonna sell you know,

165
00:10:17.799 --> 00:10:20.120
a handful of them and call it a day. I'll

166
00:10:20.120 --> 00:10:22.879
break even, you know, for the well, I haven't done

167
00:10:22.879 --> 00:10:25.759
to produce the production, part reet, but so far, you know,

168
00:10:25.840 --> 00:10:27.720
if we're looking at it right and what God is

169
00:10:27.759 --> 00:10:31.000
giving us, I'll break even because I'm the one invested

170
00:10:31.039 --> 00:10:33.279
in this, and my daughter's kind enough to say, no, man,

171
00:10:33.360 --> 00:10:35.720
you need to get over fifty percent of it. So

172
00:10:35.759 --> 00:10:38.600
I said, well, I'm just laying laying the groundwork for you.

173
00:10:39.000 --> 00:10:42.279
We still got you know, hardware and all that kind

174
00:10:42.279 --> 00:10:44.360
of stuff. So because she's already saying, well, I could

175
00:10:44.399 --> 00:10:45.960
do this, I could do this, and I could do

176
00:10:46.120 --> 00:10:47.799
all this, and I said, yeah, and actually, we could

177
00:10:47.799 --> 00:10:49.919
put a net on the side and you can put

178
00:10:49.919 --> 00:10:53.320
your umbrella there. Or you could put everybody taking their

179
00:10:53.440 --> 00:10:56.279
energy drinks and their waters into the stores into the

180
00:10:56.320 --> 00:10:59.159
restaurant and it's water, but they take it in you

181
00:10:59.240 --> 00:11:01.279
getting ready to eat, you're taking your cup in with

182
00:11:01.320 --> 00:11:03.240
you and stuff like that. So we'll make you a

183
00:11:03.320 --> 00:11:07.279
little little netted thing on the side and you can

184
00:11:07.519 --> 00:11:09.960
have a little handle thing there. Or for our dog.

185
00:11:10.039 --> 00:11:12.840
I mean, we've got I'm gonna give a shout out

186
00:11:12.879 --> 00:11:18.559
to Perfection, who's doing the intensive training for Jazz as

187
00:11:18.600 --> 00:11:23.200
an emotional support and therapy animal. And that's just because

188
00:11:23.200 --> 00:11:26.519
I just want her to have those certifications. Very cool. Congratulations,

189
00:11:26.559 --> 00:11:31.360
Thank you, Mickey, thank you, thank you so much. Thank you.

190
00:11:31.480 --> 00:11:33.960
I mean, and as I said in front of my

191
00:11:34.080 --> 00:11:36.559
daughter's boyfriend, I said, I just wanted my kids to

192
00:11:37.279 --> 00:11:43.360
experience taking using their gifts for God and allowing God

193
00:11:43.799 --> 00:11:45.799
to show them just what He can do with them.

194
00:11:46.000 --> 00:11:49.000
And if they didn't know anything else, they now know.

195
00:11:49.519 --> 00:11:51.919
Because I even said Belisi is an artist too. She

196
00:11:51.960 --> 00:11:55.120
can draw, and she drew her first sample of handbags,

197
00:11:55.519 --> 00:11:58.159
you know, and then she used her social media, you know,

198
00:11:58.240 --> 00:12:00.919
to make to do the judging. That first round we

199
00:12:01.080 --> 00:12:02.879
just did. The second one is all us. It's just

200
00:12:02.919 --> 00:12:06.440
her and I And I'm telling you, as a handbag

201
00:12:06.480 --> 00:12:09.360
I can use because it could give a cross body

202
00:12:09.759 --> 00:12:13.080
effect the strap, and I love my cross bodies, you know,

203
00:12:14.559 --> 00:12:16.879
and now all my handbags now are cross bodies. Well,

204
00:12:16.919 --> 00:12:19.440
I just put both of my head and I have access,

205
00:12:19.480 --> 00:12:22.320
and you know, it makes it easier and convenient for me.

206
00:12:22.399 --> 00:12:27.320
So and my new community of amputees and folks would

207
00:12:27.519 --> 00:12:30.200
have arthritis and hand you know, it's a handy bag.

208
00:12:30.720 --> 00:12:32.960
You don't have to do too much to get inside

209
00:12:33.000 --> 00:12:35.000
of it, and you could put a lot it can hold.

210
00:12:35.240 --> 00:12:37.159
She wanted to make I didn't realize it, but she

211
00:12:37.200 --> 00:12:38.919
wanted to make sure you could put your iPad in

212
00:12:38.960 --> 00:12:41.480
there for students who go to school with their iPads

213
00:12:41.679 --> 00:12:45.360
or their miniature computers. I said, what what did you say?

214
00:12:45.519 --> 00:12:47.879
You know, because yeah, I wanted that. You know, I

215
00:12:47.879 --> 00:12:50.279
could just put it in there myself, because she's gonna,

216
00:12:50.320 --> 00:12:52.840
you know, be a user up. So I just wanted,

217
00:12:53.039 --> 00:12:56.720
and as the testimony is that you know not. I'm

218
00:12:56.720 --> 00:12:59.799
not trying to say anybody can do this, but the sky.

219
00:13:00.600 --> 00:13:02.960
I don't like sky's the limit. I've got a different

220
00:13:03.000 --> 00:13:07.320
interpretation of that. There's your power, your your the length

221
00:13:07.360 --> 00:13:10.639
of things. You don't know what you cannot do unless

222
00:13:10.679 --> 00:13:13.960
you try to do it. You don't know what your

223
00:13:14.039 --> 00:13:16.080
end result is. You don't know what the end of

224
00:13:16.120 --> 00:13:19.960
the road is for you unless you keep trying and

225
00:13:20.000 --> 00:13:22.799
you at least put forth an effort. Because she can

226
00:13:22.840 --> 00:13:26.840
look back now and say I did it. I did it,

227
00:13:27.159 --> 00:13:29.559
and now I don't want to do a half bagline anymore.

228
00:13:30.039 --> 00:13:32.559
It's like I don't want to go to NASCAR anymore.

229
00:13:33.039 --> 00:13:34.279
I experienced it.

230
00:13:34.279 --> 00:13:35.000
That thank you.

231
00:13:35.039 --> 00:13:37.200
It was on my vision board. I just want to

232
00:13:37.200 --> 00:13:40.159
see if the people came in it looked really came

233
00:13:40.240 --> 00:13:43.279
intoxicated as they look on TV. And I found out, Yeah,

234
00:13:43.320 --> 00:13:45.879
that's true. It's very true. So I'm good. I don't

235
00:13:45.919 --> 00:13:48.399
ever have to go to NASCAR again, But it would

236
00:13:48.440 --> 00:13:50.679
be up to her if she wanted to continue it.

237
00:13:50.759 --> 00:13:52.879
I want my kids to see we were not born

238
00:13:52.879 --> 00:13:54.960
with the silver spoon in our mouth. They were not

239
00:13:55.000 --> 00:13:56.960
born with the silver spool in their mouth. But they

240
00:13:57.000 --> 00:14:00.360
have gifts and talents and the reason and another reason

241
00:14:00.480 --> 00:14:02.440
of that is, you know, so they can see why

242
00:14:02.480 --> 00:14:05.799
the devil is chasing them, why the devil is blocking

243
00:14:05.919 --> 00:14:08.879
trying to block them. Send them people in their lives

244
00:14:08.919 --> 00:14:12.039
who don't have goals and dreams and visions and to

245
00:14:12.440 --> 00:14:15.879
know why there's those people are sent to stop you

246
00:14:16.200 --> 00:14:19.480
in your track from doing and and and reaching all

247
00:14:19.519 --> 00:14:23.360
that you can reach. Amen. Amen, Now she's coming to

248
00:14:23.480 --> 00:14:26.200
my world of volunteerism. She's coming to my world now

249
00:14:26.279 --> 00:14:29.840
business as an entrepreneur, a CEO of her own company,

250
00:14:29.879 --> 00:14:32.879
an entrepreneur. That's how you train them up and the

251
00:14:32.919 --> 00:14:36.000
way they should go on the positive side. But God

252
00:14:36.000 --> 00:14:38.879
gave me revelation. There's there's the there's the negative side

253
00:14:39.039 --> 00:14:42.240
of training them up to boost, to steal, to lie,

254
00:14:42.679 --> 00:14:45.039
to fight your way out of things. You train them

255
00:14:45.120 --> 00:14:47.279
up that way because you you just say you do that.

256
00:14:47.600 --> 00:14:50.720
You just like that. You got your DNA, you never

257
00:14:50.759 --> 00:14:53.320
stopped that. You got to stop the generational curses. And

258
00:14:53.320 --> 00:14:56.039
we're gonna get right into our title tonight. But what

259
00:14:56.080 --> 00:14:59.360
are you tired of? But you need to teach and

260
00:14:59.399 --> 00:15:01.279
it's never to you laid the course correct. I got

261
00:15:01.320 --> 00:15:03.399
a thirty one year old almost in there. He's never

262
00:15:03.480 --> 00:15:06.480
too late. He watched I watched his his you know,

263
00:15:06.519 --> 00:15:09.039
because he was the first to start this drawing thing off.

264
00:15:09.320 --> 00:15:11.320
He was the first one, and I said, look at

265
00:15:11.360 --> 00:15:14.679
what we could do. Just put pencil to paper. I said,

266
00:15:14.679 --> 00:15:16.960
I know, it's bringing back memories. He said, yes, ma'am,

267
00:15:17.120 --> 00:15:21.679
because he was the first. Another shout out American signature.

268
00:15:22.320 --> 00:15:25.840
Here a store walked up. My niece needed a bed.

269
00:15:26.240 --> 00:15:27.799
The Lord had me to text her last night. I

270
00:15:27.840 --> 00:15:29.360
was like, what's going on? She goes, Oh my god,

271
00:15:29.399 --> 00:15:32.039
this sounds all sounds like we're going to be geting

272
00:15:32.080 --> 00:15:34.799
well for the future. Congratulations, Thank you, thank you. I

273
00:15:34.840 --> 00:15:37.120
got a misty. We need to start to notice who

274
00:15:37.159 --> 00:15:39.720
is good for us and who is getting in our way. Misty,

275
00:15:39.799 --> 00:15:43.600
you took it. I can't. I'm almost speechless. You took

276
00:15:43.600 --> 00:15:45.679
it right out of my mouth. If you don't know,

277
00:15:45.840 --> 00:15:48.039
if you and I don't care how nice they are,

278
00:15:48.080 --> 00:15:50.799
I don't care. Are they blood related, I don't care.

279
00:15:51.080 --> 00:15:54.000
If they are interfering with you, they're slowing you down,

280
00:15:54.000 --> 00:15:56.480
they're delaying you because you like to share the ideas,

281
00:15:56.480 --> 00:15:58.440
and they're like, oh, why are you doing that. Oh

282
00:15:58.480 --> 00:16:01.840
you always doing something right there? No, you out of

283
00:16:01.840 --> 00:16:04.200
my life. I don't care who you are. Most of

284
00:16:04.200 --> 00:16:06.000
my folks who did that to me as a child,

285
00:16:06.080 --> 00:16:08.440
they're dead, and I still had to forgive them because

286
00:16:08.440 --> 00:16:10.279
the memories would come back. So I had to take

287
00:16:10.320 --> 00:16:12.440
this thing out of it. I'm not gonna be Can

288
00:16:12.480 --> 00:16:16.200
I add one? Go ahead, Trey, just just to add

289
00:16:16.240 --> 00:16:17.399
to what I think it was.

290
00:16:17.440 --> 00:16:21.320
Missy was staying moving people out of your way, but

291
00:16:21.480 --> 00:16:23.840
also too, sometimes we stand in our own way. I

292
00:16:23.879 --> 00:16:26.480
just want to add that sometimes we can talk ourselves

293
00:16:26.480 --> 00:16:30.360
into talk ourselves out of things. So and I had

294
00:16:30.360 --> 00:16:34.519
that habit of doing that. So so I'm just mending

295
00:16:34.639 --> 00:16:36.200
that and just throwing it out there.

296
00:16:37.240 --> 00:16:39.720
Awesome. Already we walked in this I walked in the

297
00:16:39.759 --> 00:16:42.559
store Don went with many day. My niece was already there,

298
00:16:43.080 --> 00:16:44.840
and there was some things she just didn't know, because

299
00:16:44.879 --> 00:16:47.240
you know, our kids don't realize how much we really

300
00:16:47.279 --> 00:16:50.200
do for them, so she thought, and and I know

301
00:16:50.279 --> 00:16:52.639
she will. She loved it that I'm using her as

302
00:16:52.639 --> 00:16:55.840
an example that you know, she's like, well, I said,

303
00:16:55.879 --> 00:16:57.960
when you went to look at the beds, I said,

304
00:16:58.000 --> 00:17:02.559
what did the ship be a chest? That should be

305
00:17:02.679 --> 00:17:05.319
a dresser drawer, probably with a mirror on it. There

306
00:17:05.319 --> 00:17:06.920
should be some end table. She could, well, I ain't

307
00:17:06.920 --> 00:17:09.160
see all that. I said, well, where'd you go again?

308
00:17:09.640 --> 00:17:12.720
I even Babcock used to have it set up like that,

309
00:17:13.079 --> 00:17:14.599
so you don't have to walk around and try to

310
00:17:14.680 --> 00:17:16.960
mix and match stuff or whatever. If you wanted to,

311
00:17:17.000 --> 00:17:19.119
you could, but to give you an idea what your

312
00:17:19.160 --> 00:17:21.200
living room could look like, give you an idea what

313
00:17:21.279 --> 00:17:23.599
your kitchen neck, your kitchen net could look like, what

314
00:17:23.720 --> 00:17:26.039
your bedroom could look like. So we went in there.

315
00:17:26.400 --> 00:17:28.720
I said, okay, let's do a tutorial. So here comes

316
00:17:28.880 --> 00:17:31.400
the salesperson and he wanted to just get things going.

317
00:17:31.440 --> 00:17:34.559
I said, okay, now you okay, Greg, good guy, great name.

318
00:17:35.480 --> 00:17:37.000
I need you to slow up just a minute. This

319
00:17:37.039 --> 00:17:40.000
is a teaching moment. He said, yes, ma'am. And I said,

320
00:17:40.079 --> 00:17:43.000
now you see this, that's the end table. See those

321
00:17:43.480 --> 00:17:45.680
they're suggesting that you can get those lamps over there

322
00:17:45.799 --> 00:17:48.079
and then you go. Now, this whole suite is gonna

323
00:17:48.079 --> 00:17:50.680
cost something now if you get it all together. But

324
00:17:50.799 --> 00:17:53.079
you came in here for a bet. Now you see

325
00:17:53.079 --> 00:17:55.880
that the mattress is not on the floor right because

326
00:17:55.920 --> 00:17:58.200
somebody was telling her, oh, you don't need a bed

327
00:17:58.960 --> 00:18:01.480
a box spring, you don't need I said, I don't

328
00:18:01.519 --> 00:18:03.519
ever want to meet them. I don't let me meet

329
00:18:03.559 --> 00:18:06.400
those people because they're not too sound. Because you got

330
00:18:06.400 --> 00:18:08.519
to have a box spring. You're not gonna put the mattress,

331
00:18:08.720 --> 00:18:10.240
you know. I meant to tell her, we're not in

332
00:18:10.599 --> 00:18:13.799
you know, some of the Asian countries that sleep like that,

333
00:18:14.039 --> 00:18:16.519
we're not doing that. You got to keep a box spring.

334
00:18:17.000 --> 00:18:18.880
And she'sai, Oh my god, auntie, And I said, see,

335
00:18:19.519 --> 00:18:22.880
don't all of this match. He said yeah, oh okay.

336
00:18:22.960 --> 00:18:26.000
So it was a teaching moment. So anyway, the salesperson

337
00:18:26.079 --> 00:18:28.559
kept saying, God, I like you. I said, yeah, okay,

338
00:18:29.200 --> 00:18:31.240
I'm teaching here along the way because I'm teaching my

339
00:18:31.279 --> 00:18:33.039
thirty one year old. Also because he's got to go

340
00:18:33.039 --> 00:18:34.880
out there one day get his own place, and he's

341
00:18:34.920 --> 00:18:37.960
got to come in here and decide what he really needs.

342
00:18:38.440 --> 00:18:40.480
Long story short, Now, when I walked in the door,

343
00:18:40.480 --> 00:18:43.680
I couldn't help. But notice twenty percent off side couldn't

344
00:18:43.720 --> 00:18:45.119
help let us out. I said, I got to keep

345
00:18:45.119 --> 00:18:46.799
that in my mind. I wonder if they do an

346
00:18:46.799 --> 00:18:51.440
employee employee discounts here? See, you have not because you

347
00:18:51.440 --> 00:18:54.200
don't ask. So I was already got Okay, at least

348
00:18:54.279 --> 00:18:58.559
I need at least about three discounts in here today.

349
00:18:58.880 --> 00:19:02.480
Didn't know there was still doing the Memorial Day holiday

350
00:19:02.960 --> 00:19:06.200
sale which ended today, which will end tonight. When they close.

351
00:19:06.720 --> 00:19:09.119
There is a twenty percent, but if you spend over

352
00:19:09.200 --> 00:19:11.960
a certain amount, there's a thirty percent, and then you

353
00:19:12.039 --> 00:19:16.559
get a free pillow. And then I gotta buy one,

354
00:19:16.640 --> 00:19:19.839
get one the mattress because Donald happen to need a mattress.

355
00:19:19.960 --> 00:19:21.960
I wasn't gonna buy it. But guess what we got

356
00:19:22.000 --> 00:19:25.759
it for free. We got a whole mattress, brand new

357
00:19:26.200 --> 00:19:29.640
for free, Buy one, get one. Now did y'all know

358
00:19:30.200 --> 00:19:34.440
that the mattresses don't come with the box spring and

359
00:19:34.440 --> 00:19:38.400
the headboard Back in my day from Babcock, it did.

360
00:19:38.880 --> 00:19:40.359
I didn't go in there and I say, I just

361
00:19:40.400 --> 00:19:42.279
want a mattress. I went in there to get the

362
00:19:42.279 --> 00:19:45.519
whole bed set, including the headboard. Well, the young man

363
00:19:45.559 --> 00:19:48.680
told me today, he said, no, we don't. He said

364
00:19:48.799 --> 00:19:51.440
in his country, it's it's the whole three piece and

365
00:19:51.480 --> 00:19:53.720
that's the that's the set, that's the I said, well,

366
00:19:53.759 --> 00:19:56.599
here in the United States, we used to have it

367
00:19:56.880 --> 00:19:59.440
where you go in and you get a bed, a mattress,

368
00:19:59.680 --> 00:20:02.680
and a our spring and the head board. Now, of

369
00:20:02.720 --> 00:20:06.359
course you know, the end tables are separate. All the dressers,

370
00:20:06.440 --> 00:20:11.720
the lamps, the foot thingy foot chest, that's all separate.

371
00:20:12.039 --> 00:20:14.440
But at least you walked out with three pieces. I said. Now,

372
00:20:14.480 --> 00:20:17.759
I don't know who in their right mind put this

373
00:20:17.880 --> 00:20:21.279
into law to allow these furniture companies to do this.

374
00:20:21.799 --> 00:20:25.079
I said, but that's nothing but pure breed. That's nothing,

375
00:20:25.079 --> 00:20:26.920
because your mattress is going to cost you at least

376
00:20:26.920 --> 00:20:30.759
sixteen hundred dollars. But we walked out with what three

377
00:20:31.240 --> 00:20:35.519
major discounts. And then we got to Miss Fran and

378
00:20:35.599 --> 00:20:38.960
she was already rolling her eyes. She was already. I said, oh,

379
00:20:39.160 --> 00:20:40.960
I know what I'm dealing with. I said, let me

380
00:20:41.000 --> 00:20:42.880
tell you about friends, y'all. I said it right in

381
00:20:42.880 --> 00:20:44.480
front of her. Let me tell you about friends. Now,

382
00:20:44.799 --> 00:20:48.640
they look mean, my niece was I said, they look mean,

383
00:20:48.880 --> 00:20:51.359
but they're really nice people underneath. But they'll never let

384
00:20:51.400 --> 00:20:53.640
you see it because you keep stepping into their That

385
00:20:53.759 --> 00:20:56.000
lady started laughing. She said, oh my god, she know me.

386
00:20:56.200 --> 00:20:58.359
I said, so don't mess with Fran now, don't do

387
00:20:58.440 --> 00:21:01.400
that by the time we left it, the manager came

388
00:21:01.519 --> 00:21:03.119
and Frand told me, now you're not gonna be able

389
00:21:03.160 --> 00:21:05.960
to out talk him. I said, Fran, what you say?

390
00:21:06.160 --> 00:21:08.680
She said, no, ma'am m mmm, because every story you're

391
00:21:08.680 --> 00:21:10.839
gonna have, he's gonna have one. I said, oh, well,

392
00:21:10.920 --> 00:21:14.599
let's see. Let's see. So here comes the manager because

393
00:21:14.599 --> 00:21:16.480
they had to go and do some things. And here

394
00:21:16.519 --> 00:21:18.720
he comes, and I said, let me tell you about

395
00:21:18.720 --> 00:21:20.559
a friend that I used to work with. She was

396
00:21:20.559 --> 00:21:22.279
a secretary. So I told him the story of Fran,

397
00:21:22.480 --> 00:21:25.119
who I thought was pregnant because she walked. She had

398
00:21:25.160 --> 00:21:27.920
the back of a pregnant person, you know, the back,

399
00:21:28.039 --> 00:21:30.240
the back is kind of sunk in, and they walked

400
00:21:30.240 --> 00:21:32.200
real straight and you look, got your little pouch there.

401
00:21:32.400 --> 00:21:32.799
Yeah.

402
00:21:32.839 --> 00:21:34.880
Well, I made the fatal mistake. And I've never done

403
00:21:34.920 --> 00:21:37.079
this again in my life. Even if you were sticking

404
00:21:37.119 --> 00:21:40.079
out and you can wearing maternity clothes, I would never

405
00:21:40.119 --> 00:21:43.279
say it. But I say, you know, Fred was real quiet. Now,

406
00:21:43.319 --> 00:21:46.000
they start off quiet, so miss Fran was laughing. I said,

407
00:21:46.000 --> 00:21:49.920
they start off quiet until she they get they get

408
00:21:49.920 --> 00:21:52.400
a feel of things and feel for you. And I said,

409
00:21:52.480 --> 00:21:55.000
I asked, miss, I said, Frid so when you do.

410
00:21:55.359 --> 00:21:59.279
She said, Oh, Alicia, you're so funny, I said. She said,

411
00:21:59.319 --> 00:22:03.119
I'm not pregnant. I have adult kids, and I'm like, hmm.

412
00:22:03.160 --> 00:22:06.880
The manager fell out laugh, Fryan fell out laugh, Gray

413
00:22:07.319 --> 00:22:09.559
fell out laugh. My niece was like, oh my god,

414
00:22:09.799 --> 00:22:11.759
and my son was like laughing. I was like, yeah,

415
00:22:11.839 --> 00:22:14.359
I've had some embarrassing moments in my life, but my

416
00:22:14.440 --> 00:22:17.240
gift of humor gets me out every time. It's nothing

417
00:22:17.240 --> 00:22:19.599
but the grace of God. Frand was just I loved

418
00:22:19.599 --> 00:22:21.759
her the death through the years did she worked with

419
00:22:21.839 --> 00:22:25.359
us and everything else, and she always till she left, LiTi,

420
00:22:25.440 --> 00:22:28.200
you are just the funniest person I know. And I'm like, boy,

421
00:22:28.480 --> 00:22:30.279
what you know, I'm sweating bullets here because I like

422
00:22:30.359 --> 00:22:32.519
to call this lady that she about fifty years old.

423
00:22:32.599 --> 00:22:35.359
She prayed it, she walked like it. I said, now

424
00:22:35.440 --> 00:22:38.519
this friend here, she she gonna look at you and

425
00:22:38.559 --> 00:22:40.920
she gives you the look. So that's what friends. You

426
00:22:41.000 --> 00:22:42.640
got to look at the look. They need to look

427
00:22:42.960 --> 00:22:45.440
and you don't cross that boundary. So I said, you

428
00:22:45.440 --> 00:22:46.319
got the lady.

429
00:22:46.319 --> 00:22:47.480
She laughs so much.

430
00:22:47.759 --> 00:22:51.279
Even the salesperson like, I've never seen her laugh. And

431
00:22:51.319 --> 00:22:53.559
the manager had nothing to say. He said, I'm so

432
00:22:53.599 --> 00:22:57.200
glad you came in here today. That has made my day. Yeah,

433
00:22:57.319 --> 00:22:59.960
that's made my day. He said, thank you so much.

434
00:23:00.039 --> 00:23:01.839
I said, no, thank you. I said, And these two

435
00:23:01.880 --> 00:23:05.519
people great sales, great employees. I want to see them

436
00:23:05.559 --> 00:23:07.799
the next time I come in here. He said, yes, ma'am,

437
00:23:08.240 --> 00:23:11.359
got free delivery, got all kinds of But it was

438
00:23:11.400 --> 00:23:14.279
a teaching lesson for my niece. It was a teaching lesson.

439
00:23:14.680 --> 00:23:17.880
So let's get to tonight's topic. What are you tired of?

440
00:23:17.920 --> 00:23:20.119
I'm not gonna talk for a minute. I've got my

441
00:23:20.359 --> 00:23:25.039
I got my sixteen minutes of whatever, not fame, But

442
00:23:25.200 --> 00:23:27.559
what are you tired of? What are you tired of

443
00:23:27.680 --> 00:23:30.960
hearing all the time? What is it? And that you

444
00:23:30.960 --> 00:23:33.960
can share because it's a safe place here. But I'm curious,

445
00:23:34.000 --> 00:23:37.039
what are you so tired of? I am so tired

446
00:23:37.119 --> 00:23:39.440
of and you feel in the blank. I'm gonna mute

447
00:23:39.440 --> 00:23:40.880
myself for a minute.

448
00:23:41.160 --> 00:23:44.640
I'll let ladies go first. I'm gonna I'm gonna I'm

449
00:23:44.640 --> 00:23:47.960
gonna exercise my suvalry right now.

450
00:23:49.680 --> 00:23:53.480
Whoo oh my gosh, what I'm trying to think of?

451
00:23:53.559 --> 00:23:57.200
Where to begin with my tiredness? Let's see I am

452
00:23:57.359 --> 00:24:00.640
tired of the ghosting that goes on these days.

453
00:24:01.200 --> 00:24:02.640
Okay, ghosting?

454
00:24:03.079 --> 00:24:09.000
And are you talking about people disappearing or not? I

455
00:24:09.039 --> 00:24:11.720
don't know what you can you a a little bit more?

456
00:24:12.119 --> 00:24:15.880
I would probably say lack of commitments?

457
00:24:16.559 --> 00:24:23.039
Yeah, okay, in the stage us at it? So crickets?

458
00:24:23.160 --> 00:24:26.000
Do we have crickets? Yeah? Yeah, that's what I was

459
00:24:26.119 --> 00:24:27.359
kind of I didn't have the word for.

460
00:24:27.559 --> 00:24:30.839
But when I say ghosting, probably you know, no follow up,

461
00:24:30.920 --> 00:24:35.319
no follow through, no responding. But I think i'm I'm

462
00:24:35.440 --> 00:24:42.599
I'm tired of seeing people treat others disrespectfully with no

463
00:24:44.079 --> 00:24:46.799
I won't say in human. Well, some stuff is in humane,

464
00:24:47.319 --> 00:24:53.200
but whatever happened to kindness and manners? And you know,

465
00:24:53.279 --> 00:24:56.079
and I know everyone is it wasn't always like that,

466
00:24:56.240 --> 00:25:01.200
but it just seems like it's more. Yes, that was

467
00:25:01.279 --> 00:25:01.720
what I meant.

468
00:25:01.799 --> 00:25:04.880
Okay, great, I'm gonna say evil.

469
00:25:05.440 --> 00:25:11.599
I'm just gonna say evil. Hatred, not listening, not willing

470
00:25:11.680 --> 00:25:15.920
to communicate, and will communicators to these two things, listening

471
00:25:16.200 --> 00:25:20.960
and speaking. It's not always speaking, it's listening, and listening

472
00:25:21.000 --> 00:25:25.839
does not mean hearing. Listening means active listening, like understanding

473
00:25:25.960 --> 00:25:29.839
and taking time to understand whatever is going on. I

474
00:25:29.960 --> 00:25:33.519
think I'm just tired of what I'm seeing not godly,

475
00:25:34.000 --> 00:25:35.480
you know, ungodly things.

476
00:25:35.839 --> 00:25:39.279
I'm so tired of not knowing how the truth. Yeah,

477
00:25:40.319 --> 00:25:43.039
and unfortunately, mister, you're gonna have more of that because

478
00:25:43.079 --> 00:25:45.640
this is a sign of the time. There's scriptures that

479
00:25:45.960 --> 00:25:48.880
speak to that that there will be people who are false,

480
00:25:49.000 --> 00:25:50.680
there will be people who will come in my name

481
00:25:50.799 --> 00:25:53.839
and they're not of me. And there's scriptures of mainly

482
00:25:53.920 --> 00:25:55.839
in the New Testament, of that God warns of it

483
00:25:55.920 --> 00:25:58.519
in an Old Testament as well, but Jesus had talked

484
00:25:58.519 --> 00:26:00.519
about that a lot in the New Testament.

485
00:26:01.119 --> 00:26:10.400
So okay, okay, God showing little regard, well, you showing

486
00:26:10.920 --> 00:26:16.960
little to no regard to people's feelings, and yeah, yes,

487
00:26:17.160 --> 00:26:17.839
thank you, that's it.

488
00:26:18.279 --> 00:26:23.720
Well, I asked, we're all in a similar page in

489
00:26:23.880 --> 00:26:24.680
regards to.

490
00:26:26.319 --> 00:26:30.759
What we're touching on, and and I want to touch

491
00:26:30.880 --> 00:26:34.599
on the comment that was that was said that I'm

492
00:26:34.680 --> 00:26:37.000
tired of people not knowing how.

493
00:26:36.920 --> 00:26:37.920
To speak the truth.

494
00:26:39.319 --> 00:26:43.599
That that's been something that truly comes from the pit

495
00:26:43.680 --> 00:26:48.160
of hell. And the way that it all stems is

496
00:26:48.279 --> 00:26:51.799
when everybody wants to preface what they're saying, I'm telling

497
00:26:51.920 --> 00:26:57.640
the truth, and they're prefacing it through their opinions and

498
00:26:57.799 --> 00:27:04.200
not having substance to support what they're saying. People are

499
00:27:04.799 --> 00:27:10.960
not doing their research, and people are just going by

500
00:27:11.240 --> 00:27:18.000
what someone else says, because that's where many people get misled.

501
00:27:19.039 --> 00:27:23.960
You can have the media. Oh okay, Charles, you know,

502
00:27:24.279 --> 00:27:26.960
Charles want you know. My wife and I had that

503
00:27:27.160 --> 00:27:31.680
conversation this morning actually of not getting any place no

504
00:27:31.839 --> 00:27:34.920
matter how hard you try to do the right thing.

505
00:27:35.440 --> 00:27:38.319
But the Bible says it very clear that as long

506
00:27:38.400 --> 00:27:41.519
as you continue to do what it's right, your reward

507
00:27:41.640 --> 00:27:43.400
is not going to be here. It's going to be

508
00:27:43.480 --> 00:27:49.799
in heaven. So don't don't pursue worldly ways, pursue heavenly ways.

509
00:27:50.039 --> 00:27:53.319
Pursue what God has in store for you. Don't put

510
00:27:53.400 --> 00:27:57.759
your real life, don't don't trust in mankind because mankind

511
00:27:57.960 --> 00:28:02.400
is in the mean mentality for me. And that's one

512
00:28:02.440 --> 00:28:05.359
of the things that we try to talk to people

513
00:28:05.400 --> 00:28:08.759
about and letting them know. But here's the other thing.

514
00:28:09.240 --> 00:28:12.160
I'm tired of my kids telling me that I don't

515
00:28:12.200 --> 00:28:13.720
know what I don't what I'm talking about.

516
00:28:14.079 --> 00:28:14.240
Now.

517
00:28:14.960 --> 00:28:19.359
I have been on this planet sixty one years. I

518
00:28:19.559 --> 00:28:24.680
have walked, talked, come close to death, have seen good times,

519
00:28:24.920 --> 00:28:27.640
have seen bad times. And if you're going to tell

520
00:28:27.720 --> 00:28:33.759
me that my information, my guidance is not leading you

521
00:28:33.839 --> 00:28:36.680
in the right direction because you think it's the right

522
00:28:36.759 --> 00:28:41.160
way after I've experienced it, then you're calling me a liar.

523
00:28:41.559 --> 00:28:41.720
You know.

524
00:28:42.480 --> 00:28:47.400
Ms Gray touched on something about Asia and my wife

525
00:28:47.440 --> 00:28:50.599
and I have these deep conversations. Do you know in

526
00:28:50.799 --> 00:28:54.880
Asia people take care of the elderly till they die.

527
00:28:55.680 --> 00:28:59.200
I came across the situation on our way back from

528
00:29:00.079 --> 00:29:05.279
from Spain, and I saw an Asian daughter take care

529
00:29:05.359 --> 00:29:10.960
of her elderly father from helping him eat, helping him,

530
00:29:11.559 --> 00:29:15.519
making sure that he's not getting food on him, and

531
00:29:16.319 --> 00:29:20.640
guided him every way. That's where respect comes from. And

532
00:29:21.039 --> 00:29:26.400
people discount the advice of those who have walked the mile.

533
00:29:26.839 --> 00:29:30.400
You know, I can say I'm some I've been very

534
00:29:30.559 --> 00:29:35.559
successful in my business, but nobody really knows what I

535
00:29:35.799 --> 00:29:41.079
went through where I was only making seven hundred dollars

536
00:29:41.519 --> 00:29:44.319
a month and I had bills to pay.

537
00:29:44.680 --> 00:29:47.039
They'll only do for mine. I keep trying to make

538
00:29:47.079 --> 00:29:48.759
a difference for others, but I don't see much of

539
00:29:48.799 --> 00:29:52.759
a difference. And that's because Charles, nobody I think you

540
00:29:52.880 --> 00:29:55.759
all need. I mean, you all have great hearts. Y'all

541
00:29:55.880 --> 00:29:58.160
have great hearts, and I know you want to give

542
00:29:58.200 --> 00:30:00.759
everybody a benefit of the doubt. But after a while,

543
00:30:01.319 --> 00:30:04.400
there's sometimes there comes a time that you have to

544
00:30:04.440 --> 00:30:07.440
step away from everybody and look at them from afar.

545
00:30:08.039 --> 00:30:11.039
How have you motivated me? How have you motivated me?

546
00:30:11.559 --> 00:30:15.039
How is your presence? How does your presence make a

547
00:30:15.079 --> 00:30:17.680
difference in my life? Especially when you're dealing with that

548
00:30:17.839 --> 00:30:20.400
what you just talked about, Charles, And also that would

549
00:30:20.480 --> 00:30:23.079
pastor just mentioned, because I know the kids seem to

550
00:30:23.160 --> 00:30:25.559
think they really got it, they figured it out, and

551
00:30:25.799 --> 00:30:29.519
they're in a different wave length your gen z's everything

552
00:30:29.640 --> 00:30:32.480
was yesterday. No, that was weeks ago. No, that was yesterday.

553
00:30:32.799 --> 00:30:38.319
Their timing, their time management is different. I would never

554
00:30:38.519 --> 00:30:41.640
know how to lead a group of people like that.

555
00:30:42.359 --> 00:30:46.240
I wouldn't because I'm old school and my old school

556
00:30:46.319 --> 00:30:50.000
don't match nothing. It doesn't effect, it can'tnot make a difference.

557
00:30:50.240 --> 00:30:52.839
They're gonna have to walk through it themselves. And guess

558
00:30:52.880 --> 00:30:55.240
what you'll have in my house? You have to walk

559
00:30:55.279 --> 00:30:58.440
along because I don't have a swinging door, don't You

560
00:30:58.519 --> 00:31:02.799
won't learn that way, won't learn. But Charles, I know

561
00:31:02.880 --> 00:31:04.920
you've got a great heart, and I know already you

562
00:31:05.039 --> 00:31:07.599
want the best for everybody. I guess we need to

563
00:31:07.680 --> 00:31:09.799
keep moving forward and keep going. Yeah, you have to

564
00:31:10.160 --> 00:31:12.279
You've got to break You got to break the chain.

565
00:31:12.359 --> 00:31:16.039
You got to break loose and realize. And yeah, it's

566
00:31:16.079 --> 00:31:18.200
not about hurting. You're not here to hurt people. Don't work.

567
00:31:18.279 --> 00:31:20.119
The Devil's gonna probably put that in mind. Oh you're

568
00:31:20.160 --> 00:31:20.480
hurting that.

569
00:31:20.759 --> 00:31:21.359
Look what you're doing.

570
00:31:21.880 --> 00:31:22.480
Don't go there.

571
00:31:22.880 --> 00:31:23.759
What do I need?

572
00:31:23.960 --> 00:31:27.839
I need to separate myself from you because you're not

573
00:31:27.960 --> 00:31:30.559
doing anything for me. And it's not about somebody handing

574
00:31:30.559 --> 00:31:33.240
you things and giving you things and you know, embellishing

575
00:31:33.279 --> 00:31:35.079
you and all that. No, I'm talking about just to

576
00:31:35.200 --> 00:31:38.160
be in your presence, Just to sit in your presence.

577
00:31:38.759 --> 00:31:42.319
I have not seen Treye in person for well over

578
00:31:42.880 --> 00:31:46.920
thirty years. Haven't seen her in person at least for

579
00:31:47.039 --> 00:31:49.559
over thirty years. But I know when I get her

580
00:31:49.599 --> 00:31:52.759
here to Florida, when I get her here to Orlando,

581
00:31:53.279 --> 00:31:56.279
we're gonna be up and just talking about things all

582
00:31:56.400 --> 00:31:59.920
over again as if they just happened yesterday. She's good people,

583
00:32:00.240 --> 00:32:03.839
She motivates me, and she's still humble. She still looks

584
00:32:03.880 --> 00:32:05.839
out for a lot of folk, but she getting there.

585
00:32:06.640 --> 00:32:08.319
You can still love them, but you love them from

586
00:32:08.359 --> 00:32:11.039
a distance. So I think, Charles, is time for you

587
00:32:11.160 --> 00:32:15.279
to treat yourself and Anastasia. And I know Mickey, I

588
00:32:15.400 --> 00:32:17.599
know you. You can relate to some of this, but

589
00:32:17.759 --> 00:32:20.240
it's time. It's a matter of seeing what you need

590
00:32:20.319 --> 00:32:23.319
to do and doing it well. But that y'all are

591
00:32:23.319 --> 00:32:27.359
all good. Misty, I love you, We love you, but

592
00:32:28.240 --> 00:32:30.720
you got to separate yourself. And that's the hardest thing

593
00:32:30.799 --> 00:32:35.119
for somebody who just loves everybody, because you really nobody

594
00:32:35.160 --> 00:32:37.799
could do any wrong, you know, and you don't take

595
00:32:37.839 --> 00:32:39.759
it as wrong. You're like, oh, well, they're just having

596
00:32:39.759 --> 00:32:42.440
a bad day. No, they don't like you. Hang on, Trey,

597
00:32:42.799 --> 00:32:45.240
they don't like you. Now what you're gonna do. You're

598
00:32:45.240 --> 00:32:46.920
gonna make them like you. You're gonna take them to

599
00:32:47.000 --> 00:32:48.960
lunch every day. You're gonna ask them, Hey, I can

600
00:32:49.039 --> 00:32:51.640
help you. If you need help, call me. Watch that

601
00:32:51.799 --> 00:32:54.480
personality of yours. Sometimes you got to go to a

602
00:32:54.599 --> 00:32:59.559
quiet place and really judge yourself. And I would think,

603
00:32:59.640 --> 00:33:03.000
and I'm let Tray say, you know, continue here. I'm

604
00:33:03.039 --> 00:33:05.680
almost positive if I could get y'all down here to Orlando.

605
00:33:06.000 --> 00:33:07.799
If I can have all the all the audience come

606
00:33:07.839 --> 00:33:11.039
to Orlando for a retreat, you you'll leave differently because

607
00:33:11.160 --> 00:33:12.759
you got I think you gotta be in front of us.

608
00:33:13.160 --> 00:33:15.240
Pastor come on over. He'll stay the weekend.

609
00:33:15.640 --> 00:33:15.799
You know.

610
00:33:17.599 --> 00:33:20.680
The pastor Jeter will also And let's get y'all in

611
00:33:20.720 --> 00:33:23.359
the room, and and and if we just call out

612
00:33:23.400 --> 00:33:25.319
as as you see. You know this This is like

613
00:33:25.400 --> 00:33:27.559
I did is friend today and she's like, I don't

614
00:33:27.599 --> 00:33:30.920
know how you know, but you all got to take

615
00:33:31.000 --> 00:33:34.480
this leap of faith because God is the oly way

616
00:33:34.519 --> 00:33:37.680
He got you. He will catch you. You will not

617
00:33:37.839 --> 00:33:40.440
even see the ground. You won't hit the ground. Just

618
00:33:40.519 --> 00:33:44.480
like a mother eagle and a father eagle, they push

619
00:33:44.559 --> 00:33:48.079
those chicks out eventually, they push the eaglits out eventually

620
00:33:48.079 --> 00:33:50.480
because they start putting stuff in the in the net,

621
00:33:50.599 --> 00:33:54.640
in the nest. So it's getting uneasy. Now we can't

622
00:33:54.759 --> 00:33:57.240
move what we're supposed to do, and all you the

623
00:33:57.359 --> 00:33:59.039
only choice you've got. You got to try to fly.

624
00:33:59.440 --> 00:34:00.920
And I know the this is hard for most of

625
00:34:01.000 --> 00:34:03.519
you who are on here right now with us, but

626
00:34:03.680 --> 00:34:08.320
you gotta fly. Even God says Jesus even says, you

627
00:34:08.440 --> 00:34:11.199
got to leave them and come follow me. You gotta

628
00:34:11.280 --> 00:34:14.079
let them go and come follow me, and you've got

629
00:34:14.159 --> 00:34:16.960
to break the curses that are over your life. That'll

630
00:34:16.960 --> 00:34:19.920
be another show who was betrayed? You're gonna say something,

631
00:34:20.039 --> 00:34:28.679
or a pastor, well pastor, okay, who could fly? Anastasia?

632
00:34:29.119 --> 00:34:31.079
You got to fly? You got to try it. And

633
00:34:31.159 --> 00:34:33.360
if they fly, what do the eaglists do? I'm not

634
00:34:33.519 --> 00:34:36.760
seeing them a documentary where they turn around and come back.

635
00:34:37.119 --> 00:34:40.239
These are the babies. They're like, ooh, I can fly.

636
00:34:40.960 --> 00:34:43.800
This is what this is all about. Oh wow, And

637
00:34:43.960 --> 00:34:47.840
I think they forget sometime the birds can't fly. No, no,

638
00:34:48.000 --> 00:34:51.119
they can fly, some of them do. But my point

639
00:34:51.159 --> 00:34:53.880
of bringing that up was, I've seen it where the baby,

640
00:34:53.960 --> 00:34:56.239
the little eaglist, he's trying to fly, or she's trying

641
00:34:56.280 --> 00:34:58.840
to fly. It's trying to fly, and the mother's watching.

642
00:34:59.360 --> 00:35:01.159
I think the f up in the higher branch and

643
00:35:01.239 --> 00:35:04.039
he's watching and to see how low it gets to

644
00:35:04.119 --> 00:35:06.760
the ground, because when it does, if it getn't do it,

645
00:35:06.800 --> 00:35:08.920
and it looked like the baby's just not getting it.

646
00:35:09.159 --> 00:35:11.760
They can right up under it, sweeping move. That's what

647
00:35:11.800 --> 00:35:13.840
I've seen in documentary. But go ahead, go ahead, guys,

648
00:35:13.880 --> 00:35:15.480
I'm gonna be quiet. Let me mute myself because you

649
00:35:15.519 --> 00:35:17.480
know me, let me say this real quick.

650
00:35:17.960 --> 00:35:22.159
The birds see, we're putting human analogy in the birds.

651
00:35:22.199 --> 00:35:25.239
But the birds have the instincts to fly because it's

652
00:35:25.280 --> 00:35:28.880
already been programmed into their head, and and they've got

653
00:35:29.239 --> 00:35:32.360
major feathers that will help them fly.

654
00:35:33.079 --> 00:35:34.800
So they're going to fly.

655
00:35:35.400 --> 00:35:39.719
It's just a matter of them understanding. And there was

656
00:35:39.800 --> 00:35:42.400
one There's something that my wife says all the time,

657
00:35:43.079 --> 00:35:46.039
and it's right on point, and she says.

658
00:35:46.280 --> 00:35:48.679
Love me for what I do, not what I can

659
00:35:48.800 --> 00:35:49.079
give you.

660
00:35:50.280 --> 00:35:53.440
This is the problem with this with the world today.

661
00:35:53.880 --> 00:35:56.440
It's a matter of oh, he's giving me this, I'm

662
00:35:56.480 --> 00:35:59.800
gonna hang around. But when that person stops, then all

663
00:35:59.800 --> 00:36:06.000
of a sudden, they start ghosting you. Jesus said, Jesus

664
00:36:07.599 --> 00:36:11.360
the world ways, making the world ways is training people

665
00:36:12.000 --> 00:36:16.400
how to put dependence on them and not on God.

666
00:36:16.880 --> 00:36:19.480
The world is telling you you can do it, but

667
00:36:19.760 --> 00:36:22.960
that's wrong. God does it for you. And then the

668
00:36:23.079 --> 00:36:25.199
last thing I was going to say is Jesus said,

669
00:36:25.800 --> 00:36:29.280
leave your family and follow me, And everybody came up

670
00:36:29.320 --> 00:36:32.840
with excuses. Well, I've got to bury my parents. And

671
00:36:33.000 --> 00:36:36.480
what did Jesus say right after that? Let the dead

672
00:36:37.079 --> 00:36:42.119
bury the dead? Because Jesus said it. The world is

673
00:36:42.239 --> 00:36:46.199
going to hate you because they hated me first. That's

674
00:36:46.239 --> 00:36:49.880
what the Bible says. And Jesus also said, it's not

675
00:36:50.039 --> 00:36:54.679
going to be easy. You're going to face trials and tribulations.

676
00:36:55.159 --> 00:36:57.639
So who are you going to be looking at. Are

677
00:36:57.719 --> 00:37:01.119
you going to be looking for your friends who are inconsistent?

678
00:37:01.599 --> 00:37:04.079
Are you going to be looking for family who who

679
00:37:04.119 --> 00:37:05.280
will judge.

680
00:37:04.960 --> 00:37:07.679
You and say that you you're, you're, you're, you're, you're

681
00:37:07.840 --> 00:37:11.280
doing something wrong, you're the wrong person. Are you going

682
00:37:11.360 --> 00:37:14.000
to go to these self help books that are man

683
00:37:14.199 --> 00:37:16.920
telling you what man is going to do? Why don't

684
00:37:16.920 --> 00:37:20.280
you talk to the maker who knows you, who has

685
00:37:20.599 --> 00:37:25.119
every hair on your head counted, He knows how.

686
00:37:25.039 --> 00:37:26.760
Many hairs you have in your head.

687
00:37:27.280 --> 00:37:29.760
He is the one who built you, who is the

688
00:37:29.920 --> 00:37:31.679
only one who can get you out of it?

689
00:37:32.519 --> 00:37:34.519
So much hate and hurt, it's just a sign of

690
00:37:34.559 --> 00:37:37.679
the times, misty. Since the Old Testament, since the beginning

691
00:37:37.719 --> 00:37:40.840
of mankind, ad Uh you know, the killing him, you know,

692
00:37:41.239 --> 00:37:44.599
between Able and Able and Caine. It started in the beginning.

693
00:37:44.639 --> 00:37:47.559
It's always been that way. The jealousy, the gossip, the

694
00:37:48.079 --> 00:37:51.719
class system, all of this, this is nothing new. It's

695
00:37:51.760 --> 00:37:53.480
just hitting you a different way. And I want to

696
00:37:53.519 --> 00:37:55.440
go back to what Pastor Miguel said, because I looked

697
00:37:55.440 --> 00:37:57.519
at the version of the Bible, was just studying that

698
00:37:57.880 --> 00:38:00.840
over the weekend. Jesus, the version I was looking at

699
00:38:00.920 --> 00:38:04.360
said let the dead bury they're dead. I just sat

700
00:38:04.440 --> 00:38:06.440
there like, because I've always heard it, let the dead

701
00:38:06.480 --> 00:38:09.559
beary to dead. But when I saw this particular, let

702
00:38:09.639 --> 00:38:13.679
the burry they're dead, I was like, Okay, stick a

703
00:38:13.760 --> 00:38:16.719
fork of me. I'm done. I'm so glad I'm reviewing

704
00:38:16.760 --> 00:38:18.840
the scriptures the way I'm doing it. We need you

705
00:38:18.880 --> 00:38:21.639
all to trust God, just like you trust and hope

706
00:38:21.639 --> 00:38:23.760
that we will come on this show. We need you

707
00:38:23.840 --> 00:38:27.079
to double that in the in the arena, in the area,

708
00:38:27.559 --> 00:38:30.400
in the atmosphere of God. That's all I'm asking trying.

709
00:38:30.679 --> 00:38:33.199
We've already He's already proven himself since you all been

710
00:38:33.239 --> 00:38:36.559
watching the show, Since y'all been watching and listening and

711
00:38:36.679 --> 00:38:40.559
doing the homework, doing the events, the assignments, reaching the people,

712
00:38:40.880 --> 00:38:43.639
reaching out, doing you will never step to somebody. Some

713
00:38:43.800 --> 00:38:47.519
of you, you gotta try him. Guys, you gotta try him.

714
00:38:47.880 --> 00:38:49.400
I just got to give this demonstration.

715
00:38:50.000 --> 00:38:51.320
This is not my Bible.

716
00:38:51.719 --> 00:38:55.679
Okay, this is not my Bible. This is the manual

717
00:38:56.360 --> 00:39:00.440
for my car. Oh so, if anybody, if there's something

718
00:39:00.599 --> 00:39:05.559
wrong with my car, who would know better than the manual?

719
00:39:06.079 --> 00:39:08.840
If there's something if there's a piece of equipment that

720
00:39:08.960 --> 00:39:12.079
I don't know how to work, I go to the

721
00:39:12.320 --> 00:39:15.440
manual and it will tell me what I need to do.

722
00:39:16.320 --> 00:39:17.400
Let me ask a question.

723
00:39:18.119 --> 00:39:19.239
This is my Bible.

724
00:39:19.880 --> 00:39:23.400
I believe it contains the word of God. I am

725
00:39:23.559 --> 00:39:26.440
what it says I am. I have what it says

726
00:39:26.519 --> 00:39:29.480
I have, and I will do what it says I

727
00:39:29.599 --> 00:39:33.840
will do. This is this is this is his story.

728
00:39:34.440 --> 00:39:38.960
This is his story, not ours. This story is written

729
00:39:39.119 --> 00:39:46.000
about Jesus. Everybody in here are just characters of his story,

730
00:39:46.679 --> 00:39:48.360
and they make the mistakes.

731
00:39:49.079 --> 00:39:52.000
This gives us an opportunity to say, ah, dya even

732
00:39:52.119 --> 00:39:54.159
did that? Let me not do that.

733
00:39:54.679 --> 00:39:56.920
Oh wait a minute, Baloman did that.

734
00:39:57.559 --> 00:39:58.440
I don't want to do that.

735
00:39:58.920 --> 00:40:00.519
Peter put his put in his mouth.

736
00:40:01.039 --> 00:40:02.039
Let me not do that.

737
00:40:02.599 --> 00:40:04.719
This is going to give you the guidance to live

738
00:40:04.800 --> 00:40:08.880
a righteous life. It doesn't matter what other people think

739
00:40:08.960 --> 00:40:13.559
about you. It doesn't matter. The only one that matters.

740
00:40:14.000 --> 00:40:14.559
And here's the.

741
00:40:14.639 --> 00:40:19.400
Saying that's all over Facebook. I rather stand by God

742
00:40:20.000 --> 00:40:23.199
and let the world judge me instead of me being

743
00:40:23.280 --> 00:40:27.360
in the world and let and God judging me. That's powerful.

744
00:40:27.800 --> 00:40:31.599
That's powerful. And you were put on this earth to

745
00:40:31.880 --> 00:40:35.679
fulfill his story. I'm sorry.

746
00:40:35.800 --> 00:40:43.400
I didn't mean to get on my my my pulpit range,

747
00:40:44.480 --> 00:40:46.320
but it's it's we.

748
00:40:46.599 --> 00:40:51.760
We gotta stop making excuses when the answers are there.

749
00:40:52.360 --> 00:40:55.719
We don't need to figure it out. It's already been done.

750
00:40:56.159 --> 00:41:01.760
The work has been completed on the ross. If God

751
00:41:01.880 --> 00:41:06.840
has changed your life, that's your testimony. Nobody can take

752
00:41:06.880 --> 00:41:09.840
it away from you. That's the one you stick with.

753
00:41:10.400 --> 00:41:13.320
You don't need to know all of the verses. Just

754
00:41:13.519 --> 00:41:16.480
know a couple like Miss Gray has been teaching us,

755
00:41:17.000 --> 00:41:21.880
learn a couple, and then you support what you've experienced

756
00:41:22.440 --> 00:41:28.880
that God has fulfilled his promise. As of right now,

757
00:41:29.480 --> 00:41:32.079
God has not broken one promise.

758
00:41:32.639 --> 00:41:35.760
And you know what, he ain't gonna break a promise.

759
00:41:36.079 --> 00:41:37.800
We'll break him. He'll keep them.

760
00:41:38.000 --> 00:41:43.320
And amen. And another little thing, just just a little caveat.

761
00:41:43.440 --> 00:41:46.559
As the salesperson was calling out, I said, what's what's

762
00:41:46.639 --> 00:41:49.360
what's the damage, And he's calling out the numbers, the

763
00:41:49.440 --> 00:41:53.119
final number, the balance and stuff. I said, ooh, three

764
00:41:53.760 --> 00:41:58.039
new beginnings, Oh great, five, grace, mercy, peace, blood, favor,

765
00:41:58.440 --> 00:42:00.760
and my name. I said, those those the numbers. God

766
00:42:00.840 --> 00:42:04.039
deals with numbers. So all the numbers were all blessings.

767
00:42:04.320 --> 00:42:09.400
The whole balance, the whole final total, threes, fives, seven, six,

768
00:42:09.599 --> 00:42:12.320
is all God's numbers. So I'm sitting there and Greg's

769
00:42:12.400 --> 00:42:16.079
like and he's like, I like you. I said, well,

770
00:42:16.159 --> 00:42:19.599
thank you, But this is all training. This is yes,

771
00:42:19.679 --> 00:42:22.320
she needs a bad but this is all training, and

772
00:42:22.440 --> 00:42:24.400
this is where you want to get to. But this

773
00:42:24.559 --> 00:42:28.480
is for me now. Pastors teaching style, pastoring pastoring style

774
00:42:28.840 --> 00:42:30.800
is different from mine, may be different. I don't know.

775
00:42:31.400 --> 00:42:34.440
Mine is different. Trade's going to be different, trades, social work,

776
00:42:34.480 --> 00:42:37.320
case management skills are different from mine. Mine is different

777
00:42:37.360 --> 00:42:39.960
from hers. But we have a lot of similarity. So

778
00:42:40.079 --> 00:42:42.559
we can flow, all three of us, like you see

779
00:42:42.639 --> 00:42:45.280
us tonight. We can flow. But we made that sacrifice.

780
00:42:45.320 --> 00:42:47.280
I know we got one more minute, just as we

781
00:42:47.400 --> 00:42:50.280
get the going, Lord Jesus. But it's all good. We

782
00:42:50.320 --> 00:42:52.880
don't have any holidays coming up anytime. Well, fourth of July.

783
00:42:53.119 --> 00:42:56.199
That's in July. So y'all stick with us, do the work,

784
00:42:56.679 --> 00:42:59.079
Just do the work, and just idle down. Who is

785
00:42:59.119 --> 00:43:01.920
it that? What part of your personality you don't need anymore?

786
00:43:02.239 --> 00:43:05.639
That's the next homework. What part of your personality do

787
00:43:05.760 --> 00:43:08.719
you no longer need at your age, right now, where

788
00:43:08.760 --> 00:43:10.880
you are, with a job, where you are, with family,

789
00:43:11.159 --> 00:43:14.519
where you are in the season. What part of your

790
00:43:14.599 --> 00:43:17.519
personality you don't need right now? And we're gonna do that,

791
00:43:17.599 --> 00:43:20.000
even though it's Father's Day next week, we're gonna we're

792
00:43:20.000 --> 00:43:22.039
gonna come back to that. I want everybody to do

793
00:43:22.119 --> 00:43:25.119
their homework. What part of your personality do you no

794
00:43:25.280 --> 00:43:29.760
longer need in this season? We love you. Stay safe, Charles,

795
00:43:30.159 --> 00:43:33.119
get out of your head. I see you. Get out

796
00:43:33.199 --> 00:43:35.199
of your head because I need to see you. We

797
00:43:35.320 --> 00:43:38.880
need to see you next week. Okay, don't let everybody

798
00:43:38.920 --> 00:43:42.679
hears voices. The difference between us and a client is

799
00:43:43.199 --> 00:43:46.079
we know how to stop the voices, but everybody hears voices.

800
00:43:46.360 --> 00:43:48.159
Gonna talk about that a little bit more. I need

801
00:43:48.239 --> 00:43:51.000
to see all of y'all front and center. Next week.

802
00:43:51.280 --> 00:43:54.920
We'll be back, same time, same station, Night night. Take

803
00:43:54.960 --> 00:43:56.760
care all right? Right,
