>> the bible actually says
00:00:14.144 --> 00:00:15.845
>> the bible actually says he was resting because
00:00:15.912 --> 00:00:18.348
He was resting because he was tired.
00:00:18.415 --> 00:00:20.450
He was tired. he was resting
00:00:20.517 --> 00:00:21.718
He was resting because he was tired.
00:00:21.785 --> 00:00:23.386
Because he was tired. and then, so, tired
00:00:23.453 --> 00:00:25.455
And then, so, tired becomes the camouflage
00:00:25.522 --> 00:00:26.389
Becomes the camouflage that he uses to fulfill
00:00:26.456 --> 00:00:27.857
That he uses to fulfill the purpose he came for.
00:00:27.924 --> 00:00:29.692
The purpose he came for. because, when they left
00:00:29.759 --> 00:00:30.593
Because, when they left to get food a woman
00:00:30.660 --> 00:00:32.195
To get food a woman came to get water.
00:00:32.262 --> 00:00:34.297
Came to get water. and when the woman
00:00:34.364 --> 00:00:34.964
And when the woman came to get water --
00:00:35.031 --> 00:00:36.032
Came to get water -- ou, i love it.
00:00:36.099 --> 00:00:37.233
Ou, i love it. jesus started working on her.
00:00:37.300 --> 00:00:40.203
Jesus started working on her. he started asking her questions,
00:00:40.270 --> 00:00:42.038
He started asking her questions, "can i get a drink?"
00:00:42.105 --> 00:00:43.106
"can i get a drink?" and she said,
00:00:43.173 --> 00:00:43.673
And she said, "you don't have a bucket,
00:00:43.740 --> 00:00:44.941
"you don't have a bucket, and i'm not a jew,
00:00:45.008 --> 00:00:46.276
And i'm not a jew, and i'm not a man."
00:00:46.342 --> 00:00:47.143
And i'm not a man." and he said,
00:00:47.210 --> 00:00:47.744
And he said, "well, if you knew
00:00:47.811 --> 00:00:48.278
"well, if you knew who was talking to you,
00:00:48.344 --> 00:00:49.245
Who was talking to you, you'd ask, and i'd give you
00:00:49.312 --> 00:00:50.313
You'd ask, and i'd give you the drink."
00:00:50.380 --> 00:00:51.514
The drink." and she said,
00:00:51.581 --> 00:00:52.315
And she said, "well, are you greater than
00:00:52.382 --> 00:00:53.283
"well, are you greater than our father jacob,
00:00:53.349 --> 00:00:54.050
Our father jacob, who gave us this well?"
00:00:54.117 --> 00:00:55.385
Who gave us this well?" and jesus is thinking,
00:00:55.452 --> 00:00:56.219
And jesus is thinking, "actually, i really am.
00:00:56.286 --> 00:00:57.520
[laughter]
00:00:58.054 --> 00:00:58.688
Jacob i made him,
00:00:59.355 --> 00:01:00.190
Jacob i made him, but let's not get
00:01:00.256 --> 00:01:00.857
But let's not get to that right now."
00:01:00.924 --> 00:01:01.491
[laughter]
00:01:01.858 --> 00:01:03.159
And they started to argue,
00:01:03.593 --> 00:01:05.595
And they started to argue, we worship here,
00:01:05.662 --> 00:01:06.729
We worship here, you worship there.
00:01:06.796 --> 00:01:08.298
You worship there. you're like this.
00:01:08.364 --> 00:01:09.566
You're like this. and i'm like that.
00:01:09.632 --> 00:01:10.533
And i'm like that. and all of a sudden,
00:01:10.600 --> 00:01:11.701
And all of a sudden, jesus cuts through
00:01:11.768 --> 00:01:12.635
Jesus cuts through all of that because,
00:01:12.702 --> 00:01:14.671
All of that because, because he was
00:01:14.737 --> 00:01:15.738
Because he was thinking like a reaper.
00:01:15.805 --> 00:01:19.709
Thinking like a reaper. now, this is difficult for us
00:01:19.776 --> 00:01:22.178
Now, this is difficult for us because as we go through life
00:01:22.245 --> 00:01:24.013
Because as we go through life we only see seeds,
00:01:24.080 --> 00:01:26.916
And the seed looks nothing like
00:01:27.016 --> 00:01:29.285
And the seed looks nothing like what it's going to be.
00:01:29.352 --> 00:01:31.921
What it's going to be. so, what the disciples
00:01:31.988 --> 00:01:33.356
Would've seen if they had
00:01:33.456 --> 00:01:34.824
Been in this scene
00:01:34.891 --> 00:01:36.192
Would have been the woman
00:01:36.259 --> 00:01:37.961
Who had had
00:01:38.027 --> 00:01:38.761
Five different husbands,
00:01:38.828 --> 00:01:40.997
The woman who was not
00:01:41.097 --> 00:01:42.298
The woman who was not worth jesus' time,
00:01:42.365 --> 00:01:44.300
Worth jesus' time, the woman who had made
00:01:44.367 --> 00:01:46.102
The woman who had made so many mistakes
00:01:46.169 --> 00:01:47.437
So many mistakes or had been through
00:01:47.504 --> 00:01:48.338
Or had been through so many relationships
00:01:48.404 --> 00:01:49.939
So many relationships whether her fault
00:01:50.006 --> 00:01:50.773
Whether her fault or the other that her
00:01:50.840 --> 00:01:52.108
Or the other that her broken heart would make
00:01:52.175 --> 00:01:53.042
Broken heart would make a horrible place
00:01:53.109 --> 00:01:55.011
A horrible place for a new beginning.
00:01:55.078 --> 00:01:56.513
But, jesus thinks like a reaper.
00:01:56.613 --> 00:02:01.518
But, jesus thinks like a reaper. now, the good news about it
00:02:01.584 --> 00:02:03.186
Now, the good news about it is this, tell somebody,
00:02:03.253 --> 00:02:04.120
Is this, tell somebody, "think like a reaper."
00:02:04.187 --> 00:02:05.088
"think like a reaper." >> congregation: think like
00:02:05.155 --> 00:02:05.688
>> congregation: think like a reaper.
00:02:05.755 --> 00:02:06.289
A reaper. >> the good news is this,
00:02:06.356 --> 00:02:08.224
>> the good news is this, everywhere god sends you
00:02:08.291 --> 00:02:10.960
Everywhere god sends you he's already been there.
00:02:11.027 --> 00:02:12.328
[applause]
00:02:12.762 --> 00:02:13.963
Everywhere --
00:02:14.330 --> 00:02:14.731
Everywhere -- somebody needs to hear that
00:02:14.797 --> 00:02:16.866
Somebody needs to hear that because you're going into
00:02:16.933 --> 00:02:17.667
Because you're going into a situation that's like
00:02:17.734 --> 00:02:19.402
A situation that's like a samaria to you.
00:02:19.469 --> 00:02:21.171
A samaria to you. you're going into a situation
00:02:21.237 --> 00:02:22.839
You're going into a situation that's a hard place for you,
00:02:22.906 --> 00:02:25.375
That's a hard place for you, that's a hazardous
00:02:25.441 --> 00:02:27.010
That's a hazardous place for you,
00:02:27.076 --> 00:02:28.311
Place for you, that might even be
00:02:28.378 --> 00:02:29.045
That might even be a hostile environment for you.
00:02:29.112 --> 00:02:31.080
A hostile environment for you. but, notice when
00:02:31.147 --> 00:02:32.048
But, notice when the disciples got back,
00:02:32.115 --> 00:02:34.284
The disciples got back, jesus was already
00:02:34.350 --> 00:02:35.552
Jesus was already talking to the woman.
00:02:35.618 --> 00:02:37.453
Talking to the woman. and, in fact, by the time
00:02:37.520 --> 00:02:39.055
And, in fact, by the time they got back to jesus
00:02:39.122 --> 00:02:40.924
They got back to jesus she was already
00:02:40.990 --> 00:02:41.758
She was already on her way back to the town,
00:02:41.824 --> 00:02:44.294
On her way back to the town, and she didn't even get
00:02:44.360 --> 00:02:45.628
And she didn't even get the water that she came for.
00:02:45.695 --> 00:02:47.764
She left her jar
00:02:47.864 --> 00:02:49.799
She left her jar and went to town.
00:02:49.866 --> 00:02:51.401
And went to town. now, let's contrast the two.
00:02:51.467 --> 00:02:52.869
Now, let's contrast the two. you've got a woman who jesus
00:02:52.936 --> 00:02:55.271
You've got a woman who jesus wasn't even technically
00:02:55.338 --> 00:02:56.039
Wasn't even technically supposed to be talking to.
00:02:56.105 --> 00:02:57.640
Supposed to be talking to. you've got a woman who has
00:02:57.707 --> 00:02:59.609
You've got a woman who has had a salacious past.
00:02:59.676 --> 00:03:01.444
Had a salacious past. you have a woman who is only
00:03:01.511 --> 00:03:03.680
You have a woman who is only known and identified by
00:03:03.746 --> 00:03:05.381
Known and identified by what she's been through.
00:03:05.448 --> 00:03:06.716
What she's been through. and then,
00:03:06.783 --> 00:03:07.517
And then, you have the disciples,
00:03:07.584 --> 00:03:09.719
You have the disciples, the ones that jesus is using,
00:03:09.786 --> 00:03:11.554
The ones that jesus is using, his leaders who are gonna
00:03:11.621 --> 00:03:13.223
His leaders who are gonna take the church,
00:03:13.289 --> 00:03:14.190
And really move it forward
00:03:14.290 --> 00:03:15.925
And really move it forward and all this wonderful stuff
00:03:15.992 --> 00:03:17.260
And all this wonderful stuff that they're gonna do
00:03:17.327 --> 00:03:18.561
That they're gonna do as leaders.
00:03:18.628 --> 00:03:19.629
As leaders. and the woman she goes back
00:03:19.696 --> 00:03:21.998
And the woman she goes back to town and starts telling men
00:03:22.065 --> 00:03:24.667
To town and starts telling men about a man that she met.
00:03:24.734 --> 00:03:26.569
About a man that she met. the disciples come to the man
00:03:26.636 --> 00:03:28.571
The disciples come to the man that she just met and say,
00:03:28.638 --> 00:03:30.039
That she just met and say, "hey, you wanna eat something?"
00:03:30.106 --> 00:03:32.342
"hey, you wanna eat something?" and, this is what got me,
00:03:32.408 --> 00:03:34.777
And, this is what got me, while they were thinking
00:03:34.844 --> 00:03:35.878
While they were thinking about a meal,
00:03:35.945 --> 00:03:37.880
About a meal, she was already thinking
00:03:37.947 --> 00:03:39.215
She was already thinking about a harvest.
00:03:39.282 --> 00:03:45.688
About a harvest. it didn't take long
00:03:45.755 --> 00:03:47.790
It didn't take long for her mentality to shift.
00:03:47.857 --> 00:03:50.426
For her mentality to shift. and, all of a sudden,
00:03:50.493 --> 00:03:51.561
And, all of a sudden, she saw herself differently.
00:03:51.628 --> 00:03:54.297
She saw herself differently. and all of a sudden,
00:03:54.364 --> 00:03:55.331
And all of a sudden, i imagine in that
00:03:55.398 --> 00:03:57.066
I imagine in that flash she thought,
00:03:57.133 --> 00:03:58.601
Flash she thought, "wait a minute,
00:03:58.668 --> 00:03:59.969
"wait a minute, i'm talking to the messiah.
00:04:00.036 --> 00:04:02.272
I'm talking to the messiah. i am talking to possibly
00:04:02.338 --> 00:04:04.540
I am talking to possibly the one who can save me."
00:04:04.607 --> 00:04:06.909
The one who can save me." and the first thing
00:04:06.976 --> 00:04:08.011
And the first thing she thought about,
00:04:08.077 --> 00:04:08.945
She thought about, the first thing
00:04:09.012 --> 00:04:09.646
The first thing she thought about it was,
00:04:09.712 --> 00:04:11.114
She thought about it was, "i've got to go back to town
00:04:11.180 --> 00:04:13.249
"i've got to go back to town and get the men and bring them
00:04:13.316 --> 00:04:15.451
And get the men and bring them to this man."
00:04:15.518 --> 00:04:17.186
To this man." the disciples come back
00:04:17.253 --> 00:04:18.321
The disciples come back the first thing they think is,
00:04:18.388 --> 00:04:19.889
The first thing they think is, "we gotta eat."
00:04:19.956 --> 00:04:22.225
"we gotta eat." and it makes me wonder,
00:04:22.292 --> 00:04:23.593
And it makes me wonder, who's the real disciple
00:04:23.660 --> 00:04:24.527
Who's the real disciple in this passage?
00:04:24.594 --> 00:04:25.328
[cheering and applause]
00:04:26.029 --> 00:04:27.096
It makes me wonder,
00:04:27.563 --> 00:04:29.065
It makes me wonder, did the ones who had been
00:04:29.132 --> 00:04:30.500
Did the ones who had been with him so much
00:04:30.566 --> 00:04:31.501
With him so much take him for granted,
00:04:31.567 --> 00:04:33.369
But the one that had just
00:04:33.469 --> 00:04:34.370
But the one that had just met him saw the potential
00:04:34.437 --> 00:04:36.239
Met him saw the potential of what he could do?
00:04:36.306 --> 00:04:38.074
Of what he could do? because, it's amazing
00:04:38.141 --> 00:04:39.342
Because, it's amazing that they're just thinking
00:04:39.409 --> 00:04:40.109
That they're just thinking about eating and she's thinking
00:04:40.176 --> 00:04:42.612
About eating and she's thinking about reaping.
00:04:42.679 --> 00:04:44.480
About reaping. you say, "the bible doesn't
00:04:44.547 --> 00:04:45.248
You say, "the bible doesn't say that she reaped."
00:04:45.315 --> 00:04:46.683
Say that she reaped." it implies it.
00:04:46.749 --> 00:04:48.051
When she came back
00:04:48.151 --> 00:04:50.286
When she came back from the town with the men,
00:04:50.353 --> 00:04:52.155
From the town with the men, jesus started preaching.
00:04:52.221 --> 00:04:53.156
He said, "open your eyes
00:04:53.256 --> 00:04:54.991
He said, "open your eyes and look, the fields
00:04:55.058 --> 00:04:57.694
And look, the fields are already white unto harvest."
00:04:57.760 --> 00:05:01.597
Are already white unto harvest." and then, he goes into a saying.
00:05:01.664 --> 00:05:02.899
And then, he goes into a saying. now, this saying isn't
00:05:02.965 --> 00:05:04.600
Now, this saying isn't something we say,
00:05:04.667 --> 00:05:05.935
Something we say, but it's something
00:05:06.002 --> 00:05:06.536
But it's something that they said.
00:05:06.602 --> 00:05:08.538
That they said. he said, "thus the saying,
00:05:08.604 --> 00:05:13.276
He said, "thus the saying, 'one sows and another reaps,'
00:05:13.343 --> 00:05:17.947
'one sows and another reaps,' is true."
00:05:18.014 --> 00:05:21.784
Like pastor micky said,
00:05:21.884 --> 00:05:22.618
Like pastor micky said, "it's a leaders job to do it
00:05:22.685 --> 00:05:24.120
"it's a leaders job to do it or get it done."
00:05:24.187 --> 00:05:24.754
Or get it done." i never forgot that saying.
00:05:24.821 --> 00:05:25.755
I never forgot that saying. certain things that
00:05:25.822 --> 00:05:27.056
Certain things that my family used to say
00:05:27.123 --> 00:05:28.124
My family used to say when i was growing up,
00:05:28.191 --> 00:05:29.292
When i was growing up, they terrified me once
00:05:29.359 --> 00:05:30.393
They terrified me once i understood what they meant.
00:05:30.460 --> 00:05:32.562
I understood what they meant. my dad used to always see
00:05:32.628 --> 00:05:33.596
My dad used to always see somebody that he thought was
00:05:33.663 --> 00:05:34.597
Somebody that he thought was kinda snobby and he would say,
00:05:34.664 --> 00:05:36.432
Kinda snobby and he would say, "i wish i could buy them for
00:05:36.499 --> 00:05:37.300
"i wish i could buy them for what they're worth
00:05:37.367 --> 00:05:38.067
What they're worth and sell them for what
00:05:38.134 --> 00:05:38.735
And sell them for what they think they're worth."
00:05:38.801 --> 00:05:39.602
[laughter]
00:05:40.169 --> 00:05:40.937
And, as a little boy
00:05:41.471 --> 00:05:42.138
And, as a little boy i always heard him say that
00:05:42.205 --> 00:05:43.106
I always heard him say that and one day right when
00:05:43.172 --> 00:05:44.907
And one day right when i hit puberty i realized
00:05:44.974 --> 00:05:46.709
I hit puberty i realized what he was saying.
00:05:46.776 --> 00:05:47.343
What he was saying. i was like, "dang that is,
00:05:47.410 --> 00:05:48.845
I was like, "dang that is, that is crazy what he just said.
00:05:48.911 --> 00:05:50.546
That is crazy what he just said. i wish i could buy them for what
00:05:50.613 --> 00:05:52.582
I wish i could buy them for what they're worth and sell them for
00:05:52.648 --> 00:05:54.050
What they think they're worth."
00:05:54.150 --> 00:05:55.818
What they think they're worth." my dad was such a menace,
00:05:55.885 --> 00:05:56.719
My dad was such a menace, and i didn't even know it
00:05:56.786 --> 00:05:57.453
And i didn't even know it at the time.
00:05:57.520 --> 00:05:57.920
[laughter]
00:05:58.287 --> 00:05:58.921
And then, some of the stuff
00:05:59.322 --> 00:06:00.156
And then, some of the stuff is just cute or little
00:06:00.223 --> 00:06:01.124
Is just cute or little sayings that we get, right?
00:06:01.190 --> 00:06:02.392
Sayings that we get, right? little things that we say,
00:06:02.458 --> 00:06:03.693
Little things that we say, little things that work
00:06:03.760 --> 00:06:04.660
Little things that work and weave their way
00:06:04.727 --> 00:06:05.528
And weave their way into our vocabulary.
00:06:05.595 --> 00:06:06.629
Into our vocabulary. southerners have
00:06:06.696 --> 00:06:07.630
Southerners have all kinds of sayings, right?
00:06:07.697 --> 00:06:09.298
All kinds of sayings, right? i met a guy one time he was so
00:06:09.365 --> 00:06:11.434
I met a guy one time he was so southern even i didn't know
00:06:11.501 --> 00:06:13.603
His sayings and that takes a lot
00:06:13.703 --> 00:06:15.505
His sayings and that takes a lot 'cause i've heard a lot
00:06:15.571 --> 00:06:16.372
'cause i've heard a lot of southern sayings
00:06:16.439 --> 00:06:17.206
Of southern sayings through the years,
00:06:17.273 --> 00:06:18.040
Through the years, and i feel like
00:06:18.107 --> 00:06:18.574
And i feel like i'm a pretty good interpreter
00:06:18.641 --> 00:06:20.243
I'm a pretty good interpreter of my own language.
00:06:20.309 --> 00:06:21.711
Of my own language. but, i remember this guy named
00:06:21.778 --> 00:06:23.846
But, i remember this guy named brian that i met one time,
00:06:23.913 --> 00:06:24.914
Brian that i met one time, from louisiana,
00:06:24.981 --> 00:06:25.815
From louisiana, and when we're getting ready
00:06:25.882 --> 00:06:27.183
And when we're getting ready to go somewhere he used to say,
00:06:27.250 --> 00:06:28.284
To go somewhere he used to say, "if you're waiting on me
00:06:28.351 --> 00:06:29.285
"if you're waiting on me you're backing up."
00:06:29.352 --> 00:06:29.919
[laughter]
00:06:30.486 --> 00:06:32.622
And i said, "say that again."
00:06:33.022 --> 00:06:34.490
[laughter]
00:06:34.824 --> 00:06:35.024
And so, he would just
00:06:35.391 --> 00:06:36.359
And so, he would just say it slower,
00:06:36.426 --> 00:06:38.094
Say it slower, but even after he said it
00:06:38.161 --> 00:06:39.362
But even after he said it slower i still didn't know
00:06:39.429 --> 00:06:41.431
Slower i still didn't know what that meant.
00:06:41.497 --> 00:06:42.532
What that meant. another saying.
00:06:42.598 --> 00:06:47.236
Another saying. it takes one to know one.
00:06:47.303 --> 00:06:48.304
It takes one to know one. it's just a saying, right?
00:06:48.371 --> 00:06:50.173
It's just a saying, right? right?
00:06:50.239 --> 00:06:53.142
Right? this was a saying
00:06:53.209 --> 00:06:54.377
This was a saying that they had.
00:06:54.444 --> 00:06:55.011
That they had. put it back up, verse 37,
00:06:55.077 --> 00:06:56.112
Put it back up, verse 37, 'cause this really got
00:06:56.179 --> 00:06:56.979
My attention.
00:06:57.079 --> 00:06:57.680
My attention. jesus is talking to this woman.
00:06:57.747 --> 00:07:00.416
Jesus is talking to this woman. he's working in her heart,
00:07:00.483 --> 00:07:02.985
He's working in her heart, she has had a hard life,
00:07:03.052 --> 00:07:05.354
She has had a hard life, and this is a hard place.
00:07:05.421 --> 00:07:07.990
And this is a hard place. and, jesus is trying to show
00:07:08.057 --> 00:07:09.358
And, jesus is trying to show his disciples something,
00:07:09.425 --> 00:07:10.293
His disciples something, i believe he's trying
00:07:10.359 --> 00:07:11.093
I believe he's trying to show us,
00:07:11.160 --> 00:07:11.861
To show us, "thus the saying,
00:07:11.928 --> 00:07:13.563
"thus the saying, 'one sows and another reaps,'
00:07:13.629 --> 00:07:16.265
'one sows and another reaps,' is true."
00:07:16.332 --> 00:07:17.300
Is true." it was a saying they had
00:07:17.366 --> 00:07:18.835
It was a saying they had and jesus said it's true,
00:07:18.901 --> 00:07:21.971
And jesus said it's true, that sometimes life isn't fair.
00:07:22.038 --> 00:07:24.073
That sometimes life isn't fair. think about it.
00:07:24.140 --> 00:07:25.274
Think about it. one sows and another reaps.
00:07:25.341 --> 00:07:28.277
Like, sometimes you do
00:07:28.377 --> 00:07:29.946
Like, sometimes you do all the work, and they get
00:07:30.012 --> 00:07:32.048
All the credit.
00:07:32.148 --> 00:07:34.617
All the credit. sometimes you build it,
00:07:34.684 --> 00:07:37.253
Sometimes you build it, and you don't even
00:07:37.320 --> 00:07:37.787
And you don't even get to enjoy it.
00:07:37.854 --> 00:07:40.122
Get to enjoy it. sometimes you put all the love
00:07:40.189 --> 00:07:41.891
Sometimes you put all the love into the relationship and then
00:07:41.958 --> 00:07:44.193
Into the relationship and then they end up with somebody else.
00:07:44.260 --> 00:07:47.063
They end up with somebody else. sometimes you put all
00:07:47.129 --> 00:07:48.197
Sometimes you put all the investment into
00:07:48.264 --> 00:07:50.199
The investment into making the thing good
00:07:50.266 --> 00:07:52.435
Making the thing good and then you feel like when
00:07:52.502 --> 00:07:53.169
And then you feel like when it finally starts hitting
00:07:53.236 --> 00:07:55.004
It finally starts hitting you get shut out of it.
00:07:55.071 --> 00:07:56.539
You get shut out of it. one sows and another reaps.
00:07:56.606 --> 00:07:59.141
Be honest have you ever
00:07:59.242 --> 00:08:00.076
Be honest have you ever felt that way?
00:08:00.142 --> 00:08:01.177
Felt that way? >> congregation: yes.
00:08:01.244 --> 00:08:02.278
>> congregation: yes. >> have you ever felt like you
00:08:02.345 --> 00:08:03.446
>> have you ever felt like you put more in than you got out?
00:08:03.513 --> 00:08:06.148
Put more in than you got out? have you ever felt like you were
00:08:06.215 --> 00:08:08.417
Have you ever felt like you were the only one who seemed to care
00:08:08.484 --> 00:08:10.920
The only one who seemed to care about it 'cause you're
00:08:10.987 --> 00:08:11.721
About it 'cause you're the only one who did it?
00:08:11.787 --> 00:08:13.789
The only one who did it? but everybody else enjoyed
00:08:13.856 --> 00:08:16.225
But everybody else enjoyed the benefits of what you did.
00:08:16.292 --> 00:08:19.228
The benefits of what you did. now, i'm not saying
00:08:19.295 --> 00:08:19.962
Now, i'm not saying i've ever felt this way
00:08:20.029 --> 00:08:20.863
I've ever felt this way about y'all...
00:08:20.930 --> 00:08:21.330
[laughter]
00:08:21.831 --> 00:08:23.065
But even as a preacher
00:08:23.499 --> 00:08:24.767
But even as a preacher you see how easy it could be
00:08:24.834 --> 00:08:26.769
You see how easy it could be to have a resentment about,
00:08:26.836 --> 00:08:28.905
To have a resentment about, "oh my goodness,
00:08:28.971 --> 00:08:31.340
"oh my goodness, i work ed so hard
00:08:31.407 --> 00:08:32.341
I work ed so hard on this message and i don't
00:08:32.408 --> 00:08:34.477
On this message and i don't even know if they care."
00:08:34.544 --> 00:08:36.879
Even know if they care." so, what i could think
00:08:36.946 --> 00:08:37.813
So, what i could think about that is, watch this,
00:08:37.880 --> 00:08:39.982
About that is, watch this, "well, i guess i'm the only one
00:08:40.049 --> 00:08:40.983
"well, i guess i'm the only one who loves god's word."
00:08:41.050 --> 00:08:44.220
Who loves god's word." because, the enemy would
00:08:44.287 --> 00:08:45.421
Because, the enemy would love to say that to me.
00:08:45.488 --> 00:08:48.257
Love to say that to me. just like if you were
00:08:48.324 --> 00:08:49.425
Just like if you were a volunteer there would
00:08:49.492 --> 00:08:50.459
A volunteer there would be e-group leaders
00:08:50.526 --> 00:08:51.827
Be e-group leaders in this church that will
00:08:51.894 --> 00:08:52.929
In this church that will sign up to lead a e-group
00:08:52.995 --> 00:08:54.597
Sign up to lead a e-group and no one will come.
00:08:54.664 --> 00:08:56.933
And no one will come. and it will be easy
00:08:56.999 --> 00:08:57.733
And it will be easy for them to think,
00:08:57.800 --> 00:08:58.701
For them to think, "well, i was willing,
00:08:58.768 --> 00:08:59.735
"well, i was willing, i was trying,
00:08:59.802 --> 00:09:01.170
I was trying, i gave it all i had,
00:09:01.237 --> 00:09:02.371
I gave it all i had, and it didn't work."
00:09:02.438 --> 00:09:05.007
And it didn't work." there will be people
00:09:05.074 --> 00:09:05.975
In this room today who will
00:09:06.075 --> 00:09:09.312
In this room today who will really give all of yourself
00:09:09.378 --> 00:09:10.680
Really give all of yourself to something only to find that
00:09:10.746 --> 00:09:12.982
To something only to find that the people who you did it for
00:09:13.049 --> 00:09:14.917
The people who you did it for don't even say thank you.
00:09:14.984 --> 00:09:16.752
Don't even say thank you. wonder if god ever feels that
00:09:16.819 --> 00:09:18.220
Wonder if god ever feels that way about us, by the way?
00:09:18.287 --> 00:09:20.656
Way about us, by the way? i'm just asking.
00:09:20.723 --> 00:09:22.992
So, jesus said
00:09:23.092 --> 00:09:23.826
So, jesus said you have a saying,
00:09:23.893 --> 00:09:24.393
You have a saying, "one sows and another reaps."
00:09:24.460 --> 00:09:26.128
"one sows and another reaps." and, at this point,
00:09:26.195 --> 00:09:27.029
And, at this point, the disciples are
00:09:27.096 --> 00:09:27.964
The disciples are probably feeling like,
00:09:28.030 --> 00:09:28.864
Probably feeling like, "yeah, that's us.
00:09:28.931 --> 00:09:29.865
"yeah, that's us. we're the sowers,
00:09:29.932 --> 00:09:31.300
We're the sowers, we're the disciples,
00:09:31.367 --> 00:09:32.568
We're the disciples, we're the ones working hard.
00:09:32.635 --> 00:09:34.303
We're the ones working hard. we're the ones out here in
00:09:34.370 --> 00:09:35.404
We're the ones out here in samaria following you, jesus."
00:09:35.471 --> 00:09:37.673
Samaria following you, jesus." but isn't the irony
00:09:37.740 --> 00:09:39.241
But isn't the irony in the fact that the woman
00:09:39.308 --> 00:09:41.844
In the fact that the woman was the one reaping
00:09:41.911 --> 00:09:44.180
Was the one reaping and they were just eating?
00:09:44.246 --> 00:09:46.882
And they were just eating? isn't the irony in the fact
00:09:46.949 --> 00:09:50.019
Isn't the irony in the fact that the ones who should've
00:09:50.086 --> 00:09:51.387
That the ones who should've been reaping were only
00:09:51.454 --> 00:09:53.689
Been reaping were only focused on their next meal?
00:09:53.756 --> 00:09:55.825
Focused on their next meal? and the one that jesus shouldn't
00:09:55.891 --> 00:09:57.426
And the one that jesus shouldn't have even been talking to
00:09:57.493 --> 00:09:59.528
Have even been talking to was going back to the town
00:09:59.595 --> 00:10:01.230
Was going back to the town to share her testimony?
00:10:01.297 --> 00:10:02.965
To share her testimony? and, here's what
00:10:03.032 --> 00:10:03.733
And, here's what i'm saying to you,
00:10:03.799 --> 00:10:05.101
I'm saying to you, you might be surprised
00:10:05.167 --> 00:10:06.202
You might be surprised who god uses.
00:10:06.268 --> 00:10:08.337
Who god uses. you might be surprised
00:10:08.404 --> 00:10:09.472
You might be surprised how he uses you.
00:10:09.538 --> 00:10:11.240
How he uses you. you might be surprised
00:10:11.307 --> 00:10:12.575
You might be surprised what he uses in your life
00:10:12.642 --> 00:10:14.744
What he uses in your life because the fact of the matter
00:10:14.810 --> 00:10:15.978
Because the fact of the matter is when god is using you,
00:10:16.045 --> 00:10:17.647
Is when god is using you, you don't always feel it.
00:10:17.713 --> 00:10:19.882
You don't always feel it. you don't.
00:10:19.949 --> 00:10:20.716
You don't. the feeling comes,
00:10:20.783 --> 00:10:22.818
But it doesn't come first.
00:10:22.918 --> 00:10:25.655
But it doesn't come first. you have to obey jesus when
00:10:25.721 --> 00:10:27.690
You have to obey jesus when you see no evidence that your
00:10:27.757 --> 00:10:29.659
You see no evidence that your obedience is yielding anything.
00:10:29.725 --> 00:10:31.627
[applause and cheering]
00:10:31.961 --> 00:10:36.832
You have to instill in your kids
00:10:37.266 --> 00:10:39.235
You have to instill in your kids certain values that you can
00:10:39.301 --> 00:10:40.536
Certain values that you can only hope you're going
00:10:40.603 --> 00:10:42.071
Only hope you're going to envision later in their life.
00:10:42.138 --> 00:10:45.574
To envision later in their life. but the disciples
00:10:45.641 --> 00:10:48.144
But the disciples are the sowers, right?
00:10:48.210 --> 00:10:50.279
Are the sowers, right? no.
00:10:50.346 --> 00:10:51.614
Jesus said --
00:10:51.714 --> 00:10:52.982
Jesus said -- and this blew my mind.
00:10:53.049 --> 00:10:54.050
And this blew my mind. holly, this blew mind.
00:10:54.116 --> 00:10:55.384
He said, "the saying is true,
00:10:55.484 --> 00:10:57.219
He said, "the saying is true, 'one sows and another reaps.'"
00:10:57.286 --> 00:10:58.888
'one sows and another reaps.'" that's how it works, right?
00:10:58.954 --> 00:11:00.189
That's how it works, right? she's like, "yeah,
00:11:00.256 --> 00:11:00.723
She's like, "yeah, that's how it works.
00:11:00.790 --> 00:11:01.424
That's how it works. one sows another reaps."
00:11:01.490 --> 00:11:02.291
One sows another reaps." look at verse 38,
00:11:02.358 --> 00:11:03.092
Look at verse 38, he gives it a twist.
00:11:03.159 --> 00:11:05.061
He gives it a twist. "i sent you to reap
00:11:05.127 --> 00:11:07.697
"i sent you to reap what you haven't worked for."
00:11:07.763 --> 00:11:11.534
"wait a minute,
00:11:11.634 --> 00:11:12.168
"wait a minute, no, no, no, jesus.
00:11:12.234 --> 00:11:14.003
No, no, no, jesus. we're the sowers,
00:11:14.070 --> 00:11:16.105
We're the sowers, they're the reapers."
00:11:16.172 --> 00:11:17.907
They're the reapers." jesus says, "not really."
00:11:17.973 --> 00:11:20.976
Jesus says, "not really." you always see yourself
00:11:21.043 --> 00:11:22.211
You always see yourself as a sower, but you never
00:11:22.278 --> 00:11:25.214
As a sower, but you never even realize how much
00:11:25.281 --> 00:11:26.816
Even realize how much you're already reaping.
00:11:26.882 --> 00:11:29.618
Put it back up.
00:11:29.719 --> 00:11:30.953
Put it back up. "i sent you to reap,"
00:11:31.020 --> 00:11:32.788
"i sent you to reap," come on,
00:11:32.855 --> 00:11:33.656
Come on, "what you have not worked for.
00:11:33.723 --> 00:11:36.325
"what you have not worked for. others have done the hard work,
00:11:36.392 --> 00:11:37.927
Others have done the hard work, and you have reaped
00:11:37.993 --> 00:11:40.496
And you have reaped the benefits of their labor."
00:11:40.563 --> 00:11:43.799
Which makes me think that
00:11:43.899 --> 00:11:45.468
Which makes me think that maybe you've been reaping,
00:11:45.534 --> 00:11:47.303
Maybe you've been reaping, and you don't even realize it.
00:11:47.369 --> 00:11:49.805
And you don't even realize it. maybe you've been reaping
00:11:49.872 --> 00:11:52.241
Maybe you've been reaping and, you know, the enemy
00:11:52.308 --> 00:11:53.976
And, you know, the enemy has got you so focused
00:11:54.043 --> 00:11:56.812
Has got you so focused on how hard it is to sow,
00:11:56.879 --> 00:11:59.548
On how hard it is to sow, how hard it is to show up,
00:11:59.615 --> 00:12:01.884
How hard it is to show up, how hard it is to dig in,
00:12:01.951 --> 00:12:03.786
How hard it is to dig in, how hard it is to be you.
00:12:03.853 --> 00:12:05.387
How hard it is to be you. wave at me if it's hard
00:12:05.454 --> 00:12:06.222
Wave at me if it's hard to be you.
00:12:06.288 --> 00:12:07.123
To be you. yeah, it's hard to be you.
00:12:07.189 --> 00:12:08.557
Yeah, it's hard to be you. how hard it is to be you.
00:12:08.624 --> 00:12:11.927
How hard it is to be you. but if the enemy can only get
00:12:11.994 --> 00:12:13.529
But if the enemy can only get you to focus on how hard it is,
00:12:13.596 --> 00:12:16.298
You to focus on how hard it is, or here's another one,
00:12:16.365 --> 00:12:17.633
Or here's another one, if he can get you to focus on
00:12:17.700 --> 00:12:19.502
If he can get you to focus on how hurt you are.
00:12:19.568 --> 00:12:20.770
How hurt you are. y'all, i am sick and tired
00:12:20.836 --> 00:12:23.172
Y'all, i am sick and tired of people only talking
00:12:23.239 --> 00:12:24.006
Of people only talking about church hurt because
00:12:24.073 --> 00:12:27.276
About church hurt because it's a ridiculous distinction
00:12:27.343 --> 00:12:28.744
It's a ridiculous distinction to call it church hurt.
00:12:28.811 --> 00:12:30.579
To call it church hurt. it's human hurt.
00:12:30.646 --> 00:12:33.482
It's human hurt. people hurt.
00:12:33.549 --> 00:12:35.084
People hurt. people hurt people.
00:12:35.151 --> 00:12:37.219
People hurt people. if you quit going to church it
00:12:37.286 --> 00:12:38.854
If you quit going to church it wasn't because church hurt you,
00:12:38.921 --> 00:12:40.890
Wasn't because church hurt you, it's because you allowed
00:12:40.956 --> 00:12:42.191
The hurt to become greater
00:12:42.291 --> 00:12:44.059
Than the harvest.
00:12:44.126 --> 00:12:45.761
This what i wanna preach.
00:12:45.828 --> 00:12:47.663
This is what i want to preach.
00:12:47.730 --> 00:12:49.064
[applause]
00:12:49.398 --> 00:12:49.799
I've been preaching
00:12:50.199 --> 00:12:51.066
So many verses to get

[applause and cheering]
00:13:18.861 --> 00:13:20.663
I'm not letting this go.
00:13:21.197 --> 00:13:24.400
I'm not letting this go. what might sit on me all day,
00:13:24.466 --> 00:13:25.868
What might sit on me all day, but i'm not going down
00:13:25.935 --> 00:13:27.436
But i'm not going down without a fight today.
00:13:27.503 --> 00:13:29.538
Without a fight today. 'cause god sent me on assignment
00:13:29.605 --> 00:13:31.340
'cause god sent me on assignment to tell somebody that
00:13:31.407 --> 00:13:33.676
To tell somebody that you have been so focused
00:13:33.742 --> 00:13:36.378
You have been so focused on how hard it is,
00:13:36.445 --> 00:13:38.047
On how hard it is, so focused on how hurt you are
00:13:38.113 --> 00:13:41.150
So focused on how hurt you are that you have become blind
00:13:41.217 --> 00:13:43.252
That you have become blind to how much help
00:13:43.319 --> 00:13:44.453
To how much help you actually have.
00:13:44.520 --> 00:13:45.621
[cheering and applause]
00:13:45.988 --> 00:13:47.223
That's why the bible says,
00:13:47.623 --> 00:13:48.858
That's why the bible says, "praise the lord, o my soul
00:13:48.924 --> 00:13:50.392
"praise the lord, o my soul and all that is within me
00:13:50.459 --> 00:13:52.928
And all that is within me bless his holy name."
00:13:52.995 --> 00:13:54.763
Bless his holy name." praise the lord, o my soul.
00:13:54.830 --> 00:13:55.898
Praise the lord, o my soul. and, chris referenced it
00:13:55.965 --> 00:13:57.433
And, chris referenced it when he was leading worship,
00:13:57.499 --> 00:13:58.834
When he was leading worship, and i took it as a confirmation
00:13:58.901 --> 00:14:00.135
And i took it as a confirmation when he said.
00:14:00.202 --> 00:14:00.936
When he said. "and forget not
00:14:01.003 --> 00:14:02.304
"and forget not all his benefits."
00:14:02.371 --> 00:14:03.839
[cheering and applause]
00:14:04.340 --> 00:14:05.541
Let me give you a list.
00:14:05.875 --> 00:14:07.243
Let me give you a list. who forgives all your sins?
00:14:07.309 --> 00:14:09.511
Who forgives all your sins? you didn't earn that,
00:14:09.578 --> 00:14:10.946
You didn't earn that, you reaped that.
00:14:11.013 --> 00:14:12.481
You reaped that. i said you didn't earn that,
00:14:12.548 --> 00:14:13.983
I said you didn't earn that, you reaped that.
00:14:14.049 --> 00:14:15.818
You reaped that. i couldn't earn forgiveness,
00:14:15.885 --> 00:14:17.653
The chasm was too wide,
00:14:17.753 --> 00:14:19.054
The chasm was too wide, the gap was too great,
00:14:19.121 --> 00:14:20.522
The gap was too great, my sin was too bleak,
00:14:20.589 --> 00:14:22.224
My sin was too bleak, my sin was too great,
00:14:22.291 --> 00:14:24.159
My sin was too great, but jesus was greater.
00:14:24.226 --> 00:14:26.562
[applause and cheering]
00:14:26.862 --> 00:14:30.666

[applause]
00:14:36.071 --> 00:14:37.206
Why is the only time that
00:14:37.740 --> 00:14:39.174
Why is the only time that we thank god for our health
00:14:39.241 --> 00:14:40.843
We thank god for our health when we need to be healed?
00:14:40.910 --> 00:14:45.581
When we need to be healed? why am i not thanking god
00:14:45.648 --> 00:14:46.849
Why am i not thanking god for the stuff that
00:14:46.916 --> 00:14:47.583
For the stuff that feels good right now?
00:14:47.650 --> 00:14:50.085
Feels good right now? look at that,
00:14:50.152 --> 00:14:50.719
Look at that, look what i could do.

You say, "pastor, did you have
00:14:55.591 --> 00:14:57.059
You say, "pastor, did you have a shoulder surgery that you
00:14:57.126 --> 00:14:58.327
A shoulder surgery that you came through and now you're
00:14:58.394 --> 00:14:59.261
Came through and now you're really grateful you could --"

For the surgery that i didn't have to have.
00:15:02.431 --> 00:15:03.365

00:15:21.650 --> 00:15:23.752
So, the disciples
00:15:24.320 --> 00:15:26.555
So, the disciples are thinking about food,
00:15:26.622 --> 00:15:27.723
Are thinking about food, and they mean well
00:15:27.790 --> 00:15:28.958
And they mean well but they are missing
00:15:29.024 --> 00:15:29.925
But they are missing the mission over a meal.
00:15:29.992 --> 00:15:32.795
The mission over a meal. i said they're missing
00:15:32.861 --> 00:15:34.229
The mission over a meal.
00:15:34.330 --> 00:15:36.899
Don't let what you didn't get
00:15:36.966 --> 00:15:38.634
Keep you from praising god
00:15:38.701 --> 00:15:40.035
For what you have.
00:15:40.102 --> 00:15:41.103

He gave his life

So i could live mine.

And if you were the devil -- i'm not saying you are.
00:16:42.097 --> 00:16:42.931
I'm not saying you are. i'm sure you're an angel.
00:16:42.998 --> 00:16:44.133
I'm sure you're an angel. but if you were the devil,
00:16:44.199 --> 00:16:45.901
But if you were the devil, if you were, if were.
00:16:45.968 --> 00:16:46.802
If you were, if were. tell your neighbor,
00:16:46.869 --> 00:16:47.469
Tell your neighbor, "if you were..."
00:16:47.536 --> 00:16:48.103
"if you were..." >> congregation: if you were.
00:16:48.170 --> 00:16:49.304

You've already been through the pain of it.
00:17:04.653 --> 00:17:06.188
The pain of it. why would you cry over the seed
00:17:06.255 --> 00:17:10.893
Why would you cry over the seed and then not reap the harvest
00:17:10.959 --> 00:17:12.161
And then not reap the harvest when it came?
00:17:12.227 --> 00:17:12.995
[applause]
00:17:13.629 --> 00:17:20.436
In psalm 126,
00:17:21.603 --> 00:17:22.471
In psalm 126, one of my favorite things that
00:17:22.538 --> 00:17:23.639
The psalmist said was that,
00:17:23.739 --> 00:17:25.674
The psalmist said was that, "they that sow
00:17:25.741 --> 00:17:29.812
"they that sow in tears will," what?
00:17:29.878 --> 00:17:33.515
In tears will," what? >> congregation: reap
00:17:33.582 --> 00:17:34.149
>> congregation: reap with songs.
00:17:34.216 --> 00:17:34.750
With songs. >> "reap with songs of joy."
00:17:34.817 --> 00:17:40.189
Are you so in your tears
00:17:40.289 --> 00:17:44.893
Are you so in your tears that you cannot even reap
00:17:44.960 --> 00:17:46.728
That you cannot even reap what you cried for
00:17:46.795 --> 00:17:48.297
What you cried for and it's here?
00:17:48.363 --> 00:17:50.666
And it's here? the harvest is always here.
00:17:50.732 --> 00:17:53.135
The harvest is always here. i was talking to my mom about
00:17:53.202 --> 00:17:54.403
I was talking to my mom about something she went through
00:17:54.470 --> 00:17:55.104
Something she went through in her past and i was
00:17:55.170 --> 00:17:55.838
In her past and i was ministering this message
00:17:55.904 --> 00:17:56.705
Ministering this message to her because she
00:17:56.772 --> 00:17:57.439
To her because she couldn't be here today.
00:17:57.506 --> 00:17:58.340
Couldn't be here today. now, i can't do that
00:17:58.407 --> 00:17:58.974
Now, i can't do that for everybody,
00:17:59.041 --> 00:17:59.341
For everybody, but i can do it for my mom.
00:17:59.408 --> 00:18:00.242
When she's not in church
00:18:00.342 --> 00:18:01.143
When she's not in church i'll call her and give it
00:18:01.210 --> 00:18:01.977
I'll call her and give it to her personal.
00:18:02.044 --> 00:18:04.346
To her personal. and she said
00:18:04.413 --> 00:18:06.115
And she said that when i told her,
00:18:06.181 --> 00:18:07.616
That when i told her, "i know it's hard,"
00:18:07.683 --> 00:18:09.418
"i know it's hard," because of some of the things
00:18:09.485 --> 00:18:10.152
Because of some of the things she's been through in her past.
00:18:10.219 --> 00:18:12.054
She's been through in her past. "and i know it hurts,
00:18:12.121 --> 00:18:13.355
"and i know it hurts, and it didn't stop hurting,
00:18:13.422 --> 00:18:16.158
And it didn't stop hurting, but god is with you
00:18:16.225 --> 00:18:17.025
But god is with you in your hard place,
00:18:17.092 --> 00:18:19.962
And you have
00:18:20.062 --> 00:18:20.662
And you have more help than hurt."
00:18:20.729 --> 00:18:25.067
More help than hurt." she said, "thank you for
00:18:25.134 --> 00:18:25.801
She said, "thank you for telling me that
00:18:25.868 --> 00:18:28.003
Telling me that 'cause i get bitter sometimes.
00:18:28.070 --> 00:18:30.806
'cause i get bitter sometimes. because i start thinking,
00:18:30.873 --> 00:18:31.507
Because i start thinking, 'well, where as my help
00:18:31.573 --> 00:18:34.076
'well, where as my help when i went through the abuse?
00:18:34.143 --> 00:18:35.344
When i went through the abuse? where was my help when
00:18:35.410 --> 00:18:37.479
Where was my help when my husband was dying of als?
00:18:37.546 --> 00:18:39.114
My husband was dying of als? where was my help?'"
00:18:39.181 --> 00:18:41.016
Where was my help?'" but i realized that the answer
00:18:41.083 --> 00:18:42.317
Is always john 4:36,
00:18:42.417 --> 00:18:45.988

"open your eyes and look the harvest is here."
00:18:49.925 --> 00:18:52.928
The harvest is here." i believe it's 35.
00:18:52.995 --> 00:18:54.163
I believe it's 35. i messed that up.
00:18:54.229 --> 00:18:56.231
I messed that up. that was a good moment too
00:18:56.298 --> 00:18:57.199
That was a good moment too and i really ruined it.
00:18:57.266 --> 00:18:57.900
[laughter]
00:18:58.267 --> 00:19:00.102
"open your eyes and look
00:19:00.469 --> 00:19:07.576
"open your eyes and look at the fields."

To eat a meal. eat jesus, eat.

'cause, the tears in the passage belong to the woman

Ready for the harvest." just because you're not ready

Will you think like a reaper to say that even the regret --
00:20:37.199 --> 00:20:39.034
To say that even the regret -- we all have regrets.
00:20:39.101 --> 00:20:40.802

Every man that she said yes to that had left her.
00:20:45.407 --> 00:20:47.209
Yes to that had left her. but through the power of faith

00:22:13.295 --> 00:22:13.862
I'mma blow your mind. i'mma blow your mind.
00:22:13.929 --> 00:22:14.529
I'mma blow your mind. god blew my mind.
00:22:14.596 --> 00:22:15.430
God blew my mind. if he had sent the disciples
00:22:15.497 --> 00:22:17.032
If he had sent the disciples into the town,
00:22:17.099 --> 00:22:17.899
Into the town, the men wouldn't have
00:22:17.966 --> 00:22:19.000
The men wouldn't have come back with 'em.
00:22:19.067 --> 00:22:22.738
Come back with 'em. she had to have been with men
00:22:22.804 --> 00:22:25.640
She had to have been with men in order to bring men.
00:22:25.707 --> 00:22:27.409
In order to bring men. i'm not telling to go live
00:22:27.476 --> 00:22:28.577
I'm not telling to go live a sinful life so you can build
00:22:28.643 --> 00:22:29.945
A bigger testimony...
00:22:30.045 --> 00:22:30.712
[laughter]
00:22:31.113 --> 00:22:32.114
But i am saying, watch this,
00:22:32.647 --> 00:22:34.683
But i am saying, watch this, nothing will be wasted.
00:22:34.750 --> 00:22:35.984
Nothing will be wasted. nothing will be wasted.
00:22:36.051 --> 00:22:37.018
Nothing will be wasted. nothing will be wasted.
00:22:37.085 --> 00:22:38.353
Nothing will be wasted. i'm reaping this.
00:22:38.420 --> 00:22:42.090
I'm reaping this. nothing will be wasted.
00:22:42.157 --> 00:22:43.525
Nothing will be wasted. tell your neighbor,
00:22:43.592 --> 00:22:44.226
Tell your neighbor, "nothing will be wasted.
00:22:44.292 --> 00:22:45.560

00:22:45.627 --> 00:22:47.028
Nothing, nothing. not a breakup, not a bad turn,
00:22:47.095 --> 00:22:49.030
Not a breakup, not a bad turn, not a left turn, not a bad day,
00:22:49.097 --> 00:22:51.299
Not a left turn, not a bad day, not a wrong thi --
00:22:51.366 --> 00:22:52.200
Not a wrong thi -- nothing that
00:22:52.267 --> 00:22:54.503
Nothing that you've been through.
00:22:54.569 --> 00:22:55.370
[applause]
00:22:55.771 --> 00:22:59.441
I'm thinking like a reaper now.
00:23:00.475 --> 00:23:03.678
I'm thinking like a reaper now. i am seeing that god
00:23:03.745 --> 00:23:05.213
I am seeing that god is transforming through
00:23:05.280 --> 00:23:06.815
Is transforming through my tears and feelings
00:23:06.882 --> 00:23:10.218
My tears and feelings don't come first, faith does.
00:23:10.285 --> 00:23:13.455
>> i am so excited
00:23:15.223 --> 00:23:16.124
>> i am so excited to share my husband's
00:23:16.191 --> 00:23:17.058
To share my husband's newest series,
00:23:17.125 --> 00:23:18.226
Newest series, "ready for a miracle."
00:23:18.293 --> 00:23:20.195
"ready for a miracle." this series is about
00:23:20.262 --> 00:23:21.329
This series is about opening your eyes to see
00:23:21.396 --> 00:23:22.964
Opening your eyes to see the miracles all around you,
00:23:23.031 --> 00:23:24.866
The miracles all around you, and often that starts with
00:23:24.933 --> 00:23:26.134
And often that starts with addressing your feelings.
00:23:26.201 --> 00:23:28.336
Addressing your feelings. i've had moments where i let
00:23:28.403 --> 00:23:29.538
My emotions control everything,
00:23:29.638 --> 00:23:31.306
My emotions control everything, how i act and react,
00:23:31.373 --> 00:23:32.908
How i act and react, and even how my day goes.
00:23:32.974 --> 00:23:34.543
And even how my day goes. and when that happens,
00:23:34.609 --> 00:23:35.544
And when that happens, i miss what god
00:23:35.610 --> 00:23:36.878
I miss what god is doing in my life.
00:23:36.945 --> 00:23:38.580
Is doing in my life. i miss the blessings,
00:23:38.647 --> 00:23:39.381
I miss the blessings, and the opportunities,
00:23:39.448 --> 00:23:40.449
And the opportunities, and the miracles all around me.
00:23:40.515 --> 00:23:43.151
And the miracles all around me. in this series, my husband says,
00:23:43.218 --> 00:23:44.719
In this series, my husband says, "feelings come,
00:23:44.786 --> 00:23:45.821
"feelings come, but they don't come first."
00:23:45.887 --> 00:23:47.856
But they don't come first." this challenge shifted
00:23:47.923 --> 00:23:49.291
This challenge shifted my perspective because
00:23:49.357 --> 00:23:50.759
My perspective because it was a call for me
00:23:50.826 --> 00:23:51.993
It was a call for me to take control.
00:23:52.060 --> 00:23:53.061
To take control. instead of letting
00:23:53.128 --> 00:23:53.895
Instead of letting my emotions run wild,
00:23:53.962 --> 00:23:55.330
My emotions run wild, i started each day imagining
00:23:55.397 --> 00:23:57.065
I started each day imagining how i wanted to feel
00:23:57.132 --> 00:23:58.967
How i wanted to feel at the end of it.
00:23:59.034 --> 00:24:00.635
At the end of it. this shift can
00:24:00.702 --> 00:24:01.670
This shift can change everything,
00:24:01.736 --> 00:24:02.604
Change everything, and that's why i believe
00:24:02.671 --> 00:24:04.039
And that's why i believe this series is so important
00:24:04.105 --> 00:24:05.707
