1
00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:11.640
All right, ladies. Welcome. All right. Today is August 11th. It is your one o'clock. Phase

2
00:00:11.640 --> 00:00:18.920
two Love Story Accelerator Tuesday live check-in call here with the community. And ladies,

3
00:00:18.920 --> 00:00:27.600
I had every intention of getting ready today. Y'all see me in my pajamas. There is a reason

4
00:00:27.760 --> 00:00:35.280
for that. And that's why I really do think today's session is going to be really, really good. You

5
00:00:35.280 --> 00:00:45.680
know, I woke up this morning and I met with the Lord in prayer. And I just felt the presence of

6
00:00:45.680 --> 00:00:52.640
the Holy Spirit with me for hours today. And I just didn't want to leave. And that's why you get

7
00:00:52.640 --> 00:01:00.960
me sitting in pajamas. But I don't say that to sound spiritual in any way. I just I say that

8
00:01:00.960 --> 00:01:07.840
because I want you ladies to get excited because I really do believe that God has something that

9
00:01:07.840 --> 00:01:17.040
he wants to share with us today. So I want y'all to get ready. All right. I've got lots to share.

10
00:01:17.600 --> 00:01:23.760
And I definitely want to get to y'all's questions. So bear with me. I know we got lots of people that

11
00:01:23.760 --> 00:01:29.600
are probably jumping on the call. That's why I went ahead and started recording sooner rather

12
00:01:29.600 --> 00:01:34.640
than later. So I didn't didn't miss it. All right. I want to make sure we get this recorded.

13
00:01:36.000 --> 00:01:43.680
But let me go ahead and pray for us. And then we will get started. Ladies, if you are able to come

14
00:01:43.680 --> 00:01:52.480
on camera, please do so. I know that a lot of times we are at work or we're driving. But y'all,

15
00:01:52.480 --> 00:01:59.520
I'm sitting here in my pajamas today. So I don't want to feel left out. So come on camera, please.

16
00:02:01.040 --> 00:02:08.560
No, but seriously, come on camera. I love to see your face. I definitely want y'all participating

17
00:02:08.560 --> 00:02:13.200
if you can. If you can't, I get it. Like some of you at work. But even if you can just be in

18
00:02:13.200 --> 00:02:20.320
the chat using your little little avatar hands and your emojis and all that good stuff. I believe

19
00:02:20.320 --> 00:02:26.800
today is going to be really, really good. Okay. So I thank you. My daughter and I have matching

20
00:02:26.800 --> 00:02:33.760
pajamas. We actually had these for Valentine's Day. So they're really comfy too. All right. So

21
00:02:33.760 --> 00:02:39.200
yeah. Let me go ahead and pray for us. And then we will go ahead and get started. So Heavenly Father,

22
00:02:39.200 --> 00:02:46.480
I just thank you. I thank you for bringing these beautiful women together here today with us.

23
00:02:46.480 --> 00:02:53.120
Father, I just thank you. I thank you every week for this opportunity. It's such a blessing. And so

24
00:02:57.200 --> 00:03:02.080
I just want to really spend time just to honor the ladies that are on this call and that are

25
00:03:02.080 --> 00:03:11.440
watching in replay because it's why we do what we do. It's what you've called us for to be able

26
00:03:11.440 --> 00:03:17.280
to serve these ladies. And we can't do what you've called us to do if there's no one showing up. And

27
00:03:17.280 --> 00:03:27.120
so I just thank you for what you've placed in their heart. I thank you that you've got a story

28
00:03:27.120 --> 00:03:34.080
written for them, Father. That they are loved by you. They are known by you. And you have promises

29
00:03:34.080 --> 00:03:39.760
that you have placed on their hearts. And you are going to see those promises unfold. And you have

30
00:03:39.760 --> 00:03:46.560
those stories written, Father. And so we just come before you today, God, with open hearts. And we

31
00:03:46.560 --> 00:03:53.360
ask that you just speak to us through your word today. Lord, I know that so many of us

32
00:03:54.240 --> 00:04:00.320
can often carry disappointments. I know at times we feel like our prayers are not being answered.

33
00:04:01.680 --> 00:04:07.120
Chapters that we, you know, we're facing that we never expected that we would walk through.

34
00:04:08.480 --> 00:04:16.959
Yet today, Lord, let us choose to believe that you are still the author of our stories.

35
00:04:17.920 --> 00:04:21.040
And that you are working all things together for our good.

36
00:04:23.600 --> 00:04:30.880
Lord, we open this time today. We invite your spirit in. Let us spend this time together.

37
00:04:32.000 --> 00:04:38.960
Help us quiet all the other voices that have been competing for our attention, that's wanting

38
00:04:38.960 --> 00:04:48.720
to distract us from what you have faithfully asked us to step into. Lord, let your truth be louder

39
00:04:49.440 --> 00:04:56.160
than our fears, than our past experiences, and any of the disappointments that we have faced

40
00:04:56.960 --> 00:04:59.920
now, and in our past, and even

41
00:05:00.000 --> 00:05:06.160
those disappointments that may come in the future. Lord, give us ears to hear what you are saying

42
00:05:06.160 --> 00:05:13.280
personally to each and every single one of us. Give us courage to believe it and the faith

43
00:05:13.840 --> 00:05:25.680
to respond like Peter. Nevertheless, at your word. Holy Spirit, guide every single conversation on

44
00:05:25.680 --> 00:05:33.280
this call today. Every question, every moment of reflection, every celebration today, Lord.

45
00:05:34.000 --> 00:05:42.560
And may every single woman leave this call or leave after listening to the replay with a greater

46
00:05:42.560 --> 00:05:51.040
hope, a greater peace, and a greater confidence in the story that you are writing over her life.

47
00:05:52.000 --> 00:05:59.200
Lord, we surrender this time to you in the mighty name of Jesus. Amen.

48
00:06:00.240 --> 00:06:09.760
All right, ladies. So yes, we've got lots. I'm telling you, I've got a good feeling about today.

49
00:06:10.320 --> 00:06:16.080
All right. So I'm excited. I'm expectant of what God wants to release over us

50
00:06:16.800 --> 00:06:25.840
here in phase two. I was really waking up this morning and praying fiercely

51
00:06:27.440 --> 00:06:35.280
and reflecting on Supernatural Saturday and the word that Jackie shared with us. And I just

52
00:06:35.280 --> 00:06:44.480
really, really feel just a strong presence of the Lord on that. And so I'm excited.

53
00:06:44.480 --> 00:06:50.880
Okay. So I hope you are too. Before we get started, I want to go ahead and take a few

54
00:06:50.880 --> 00:06:58.800
minutes to celebrate like I always do. Okay. Because that's one of my favorite things to do.

55
00:07:00.000 --> 00:07:05.840
You know, every Monday, I, you know, especially before I kind of set the tone, before I,

56
00:07:06.400 --> 00:07:16.080
you know, really pry into our teaching for today, I go back and I reflect over all the posts that

57
00:07:16.080 --> 00:07:23.360
y'all shared in the app. And that's why it's so important, ladies, if you are hesitant about

58
00:07:23.920 --> 00:07:33.200
sharing in the app, please do. It really does light a fire in this community. It really,

59
00:07:33.200 --> 00:07:43.280
really does. And, um, those posts are super important to us coaches. And, um, we take

60
00:07:44.320 --> 00:07:55.600
every word, every thought that y'all pour into those and we pray over them and we, we just,

61
00:07:55.600 --> 00:08:04.560
we press into them. And so I want you ladies to know that when you invest in that,

62
00:08:05.840 --> 00:08:14.240
like it is an investment in yourself. And we, we truly like that is how we serve you.

63
00:08:15.120 --> 00:08:22.160
And that is our heart here at last year single for every single one of us coaches is to serve

64
00:08:22.720 --> 00:08:30.720
y'all. Well, I say that, um, you know, humbly I was sitting where you're sitting.

65
00:08:31.920 --> 00:08:36.880
You know, I joined this community in 2020 as a single, as a student to Jackie's myself,

66
00:08:38.080 --> 00:08:45.120
I've experienced what you've experienced, maybe not the exact same, but very similar. We all have,

67
00:08:45.120 --> 00:08:55.440
we all have different stories, but it's all very similar. Okay. And so I just really want

68
00:08:55.440 --> 00:09:01.200
to share that. That's on my heart. Wasn't even in my notes, believe it or not. Um,

69
00:09:02.080 --> 00:09:08.240
so I just want to really emphasize that. Um, and so some things that I noticed and wanted

70
00:09:08.240 --> 00:09:13.200
to celebrate this week that I saw God doing in our community is, you know, I really saw,

71
00:09:13.920 --> 00:09:21.760
um, women choosing hope over discouragement this week. Y'all, I remember a time when I was in this

72
00:09:21.760 --> 00:09:27.200
community. I remember there were seasons of discouragement, believe it or not. I had a

73
00:09:27.200 --> 00:09:34.000
season of discouragement right before I met my husband. I mean, it was, I was ready to throw

74
00:09:34.000 --> 00:09:46.560
the towel and I really was. And so, um, watching you all choose hope instead of the story of

75
00:09:46.560 --> 00:09:55.680
discouragement is really inspiring. And so I just really want to celebrate that. Um,

76
00:09:55.680 --> 00:09:59.920
I'm recognizing women taking, um, how.

77
00:10:00.880 --> 00:10:05.200
old beliefs, they're recognizing, y'all are recognizing old beliefs

78
00:10:07.760 --> 00:10:10.080
and you're not automatically believing them.

79
00:10:12.800 --> 00:10:18.480
Like that's the heartwork stuff. Like it's really holding those thoughts captive

80
00:10:19.280 --> 00:10:23.920
and recognizing those old patterns, those old beliefs, those lies,

81
00:10:23.920 --> 00:10:30.160
and recognizing them so you can hold them captive. And so I'm seeing a lot of that,

82
00:10:30.160 --> 00:10:36.080
ladies. And so I want you to be encouraged in that. Okay. Maybe you're like, but Carla,

83
00:10:36.080 --> 00:10:44.240
that's not my story right now. That's okay. That's okay. Get in the app and read it

84
00:10:45.200 --> 00:10:54.560
from the other ladies. Okay. There is something about when we share that hope,

85
00:10:55.200 --> 00:10:58.880
it will release the hope for all of those that feeling discouraged.

86
00:10:59.840 --> 00:11:08.320
How do I know? Because I was the girl that was discouraged often, but I didn't give up.

87
00:11:08.720 --> 00:11:14.080
I was determined. I was like, absolutely not. Like I invested in myself. I invested in this

88
00:11:14.080 --> 00:11:23.360
community. Y'all, I was a single mom and that was tough. Okay. I like financially, it's, I get it.

89
00:11:23.360 --> 00:11:30.400
It is hard when you're on your own sometimes, especially for you mamas out there. You know,

90
00:11:30.400 --> 00:11:37.360
I had, you know, uh, a little boy that, you know, his father was in and out. Like he was there,

91
00:11:38.400 --> 00:11:47.360
but once every two weeks, one night a week, I was blessed that he gave me a little something.

92
00:11:47.360 --> 00:11:53.280
Cause I know there's a lot of you out there that are single mamas that those fathers aren't around.

93
00:11:53.280 --> 00:12:01.440
They're not, they're not helping out. I was fortunate. I had, I had at least his dad coming

94
00:12:01.440 --> 00:12:07.920
around a little bit and helping out a little bit financially. But if I were to tell you how,

95
00:12:07.920 --> 00:12:13.360
how much he was given financially, and I would share that with people sometimes, like my

96
00:12:13.360 --> 00:12:19.440
confidence, like incompetence with, with people that, you know, I, I would share that with people.

97
00:12:19.520 --> 00:12:24.400
Like incompetence with, with people that, you know, I, I would be, you know,

98
00:12:24.400 --> 00:12:29.120
spiritually leaning into, I mean, it wasn't a lot, but you know what? I was grateful for it.

99
00:12:29.920 --> 00:12:35.680
Wasn't a lot, but I was grateful for it. So I, I get, I was like, you know what?

100
00:12:37.840 --> 00:12:43.440
I'm investing in myself when I, when I come in this community. And if I'm going to invest in

101
00:12:43.440 --> 00:12:49.760
myself and I'm going to like, and I'm going to take some of that, that investment, which could

102
00:12:49.760 --> 00:13:00.560
be used on my, my son. Oh, you best believe I was going to make sure I got and squeezed out

103
00:13:00.560 --> 00:13:08.960
everything God had to offer. All right. Even when I was discouraged and that was often,

104
00:13:09.840 --> 00:13:20.240
that was all that was often. So I want to, I want to encourage you ladies that,

105
00:13:22.960 --> 00:13:27.280
you know, read, if you're discouraged, get on the app and read the post of the women,

106
00:13:28.720 --> 00:13:36.320
you know, lift each other up, let each other know you you're right there with them, you know,

107
00:13:36.960 --> 00:13:39.840
give them the encouragement, let them know that they're not alone.

108
00:13:39.840 --> 00:13:43.120
I see so much of that happening and I'm so, so thankful for it.

109
00:13:45.600 --> 00:13:58.160
I've been in this phase coaching for almost three years now, and I am seeing a new fire get ignited

110
00:13:58.240 --> 00:14:06.960
and lit in this community with y'all lifting each other up. I mean, we've always had that

111
00:14:07.840 --> 00:14:14.400
community, but I feel like God is doing something with it. And so I want that to encourage you

112
00:14:14.400 --> 00:14:20.720
ladies to, you know, if you feel pressed to be like, I need to get in the app more,

113
00:14:21.280 --> 00:14:27.920
I need to be sharing more. I'm afraid to share because I'm afraid to be vulnerable or I,

114
00:14:27.920 --> 00:14:33.920
you know, I see someone's post and I'm afraid like to share something with them because maybe

115
00:14:33.920 --> 00:14:38.480
they won't find it valuable. I want you to cast out those thoughts.

116
00:14:41.120 --> 00:14:53.200
And I want you to be encouraged, take courage and do it anyway. Okay. God is telling you,

117
00:14:53.200 --> 00:14:58.320
hey, it's time. Okay.

118
00:15:00.000 --> 00:15:05.100
Again, I'm seeing lots of ladies trust God's faithfulness one step at a time.

119
00:15:05.100 --> 00:15:08.720
And a lot of you are doing what I just asked you to do.

120
00:15:08.720 --> 00:15:10.660
You are encouraging one another.

121
00:15:11.220 --> 00:15:18.620
You are celebrating that growth instead of measuring it, measuring your success

122
00:15:18.620 --> 00:15:22.600
by the outcomes that you hoped it would look like.

123
00:15:24.600 --> 00:15:26.200
Y'all, let me tell you something.

124
00:15:26.200 --> 00:15:34.700
I'm sure we all have a testimony of this, because God's got testimonies in each and every one of us.

125
00:15:34.700 --> 00:15:52.400
But testimony of, like, how many of you have a testimony that is exactly the way that you envisioned it?

126
00:15:52.400 --> 00:15:58.000
Yes, there's something new.

127
00:15:58.000 --> 00:16:05.700
Ladies, if you're sitting there saying, oh, I have, God bless you.

128
00:16:05.700 --> 00:16:09.200
And maybe that has happened for you.

129
00:16:09.200 --> 00:16:12.400
I'm not going to sit here and come against your testimony.

130
00:16:12.400 --> 00:16:19.100
But I am going to probably bet, all right, and gamble, all right,

131
00:16:19.800 --> 00:16:27.400
that majority of our testimonies look nothing like we thought they were going to look like.

132
00:16:28.800 --> 00:16:39.600
So I want you to press into that, ladies, that our growth is not measured in the outcome that we thought we wanted.

133
00:16:39.600 --> 00:16:44.600
It is measured in how God faithfully shows up.

134
00:16:44.700 --> 00:16:52.000
And when he shows up, he shows up in ways that we had no idea, right?

135
00:16:52.000 --> 00:16:56.200
And so I want you to take hold of that.

136
00:16:56.200 --> 00:17:01.000
So I don't want to take any more time, because I've got a lot to share.

137
00:17:01.000 --> 00:17:06.000
And I want to make sure we have enough time to get to all your questions and all that.

138
00:17:06.000 --> 00:17:10.400
I also want to give y'all an opportunity here in the next, like, five, ten minutes.

139
00:17:10.500 --> 00:17:14.800
I want you to be able to share with us in the chat.

140
00:17:14.800 --> 00:17:17.700
If you want to unmute for, like, 30 seconds.

141
00:17:17.700 --> 00:17:24.800
I want you to share with us what is something that you've experienced this week that's a win.

142
00:17:26.500 --> 00:17:28.099
Share it with us.

143
00:17:28.099 --> 00:17:31.500
What is God revealing to you through it?

144
00:17:31.500 --> 00:17:36.700
So if you can unmute and you got 30 seconds to share it with us, let us hear it.

145
00:17:36.700 --> 00:17:38.500
We're not going to coach you right now on this.

146
00:17:38.500 --> 00:17:43.700
We're just sharing, praising God for what he's doing, what he's revealing.

147
00:17:43.700 --> 00:17:46.800
Unmute, share it in the chat.

148
00:17:46.800 --> 00:17:54.600
If you can't unmute, I want to hear and I want to celebrate you ladies, okay?

149
00:17:54.600 --> 00:17:57.100
So don't all jump at once.

150
00:17:57.100 --> 00:18:00.100
I'm going to give you a minute.

151
00:18:01.800 --> 00:18:04.400
I love that, Sergel.

152
00:18:04.400 --> 00:18:08.800
No, hell no.

153
00:18:08.800 --> 00:18:09.700
No.

154
00:18:09.700 --> 00:18:12.500
Yes, I love it.

155
00:18:13.600 --> 00:18:17.300
Yes, Kelly, doing it in faith.

156
00:18:17.300 --> 00:18:18.700
Yes, absolutely.

157
00:18:18.700 --> 00:18:20.000
That was Supernatural Saturday.

158
00:18:20.000 --> 00:18:25.300
I'm telling you, y'all, get to Supernatural Saturdays.

159
00:18:25.300 --> 00:18:28.300
For sure.

160
00:18:29.300 --> 00:18:34.300
I can share what the Lord revealed to me this morning.

161
00:18:34.300 --> 00:18:35.200
Yes, do it.

162
00:18:35.200 --> 00:18:35.700
Okay.

163
00:18:35.700 --> 00:18:37.000
He's on fire this morning.

164
00:18:37.000 --> 00:18:39.200
I'm telling you.

165
00:18:39.200 --> 00:18:44.900
Well, it started with that verse that says, if you confess your sins one to another,

166
00:18:44.900 --> 00:18:48.500
you know, to cleanse you from all unrighteousness, that's what sparked it.

167
00:18:48.500 --> 00:18:54.000
And then the Holy Spirit was like, the Lord took everything and like fully capitalized

168
00:18:54.200 --> 00:18:59.900
everything that opens the door to sin and he put it on the cross.

169
00:18:59.900 --> 00:19:04.900
He took everything that resulted from sin and nailed it to the cross.

170
00:19:04.900 --> 00:19:14.200
He took everything that gave the enemy permission to torment me or hurt me and nailed it on the cross.

171
00:19:14.200 --> 00:19:23.100
He took everything that allowed death, disease, decay, dying, aging, poverty, lack, oppression, and nailed it to the cross.

172
00:19:23.100 --> 00:19:29.400
He took everything that feeds rage, shame, guilt, condemnation, malice,

173
00:19:29.400 --> 00:19:34.800
bilderness, resentment, evil, wickedness, and nailed it to the cross.

174
00:19:34.800 --> 00:19:38.700
For I am the door, I am the bread, and I am life.

175
00:19:38.700 --> 00:19:42.700
Consume me.

176
00:19:42.700 --> 00:19:44.300
Walk through that door.

177
00:19:44.400 --> 00:19:49.700
You took everything that gave the enemy access to me and nailed it on the cross.

178
00:19:53.900 --> 00:19:56.800
Yes, y'all.

179
00:19:56.800 --> 00:19:59.900
I'm telling you, today is a good day.

180
00:20:00.720 --> 00:20:03.480
Yes, and look at how many of you are on.

181
00:20:03.480 --> 00:20:06.280
Y'all, this is one, like this Tuesday call,

182
00:20:06.280 --> 00:20:09.080
this afternoon call, it's hard to get somebody on

183
00:20:09.080 --> 00:20:11.280
because it is the middle of the day, I get it.

184
00:20:11.280 --> 00:20:14.640
There is 26 of us on today.

185
00:20:14.640 --> 00:20:17.180
I love it, 26 of us.

186
00:20:17.180 --> 00:20:20.080
I don't know, 26 is the date of my birthday.

187
00:20:20.080 --> 00:20:22.360
Okay, I was born February 26.

188
00:20:22.360 --> 00:20:25.240
So I don't know, that speaks to me.

189
00:20:25.240 --> 00:20:29.600
I think of Ezekiel 36, 26, all right?

190
00:20:29.600 --> 00:20:33.840
That's where you know, oh, who was that?

191
00:20:33.840 --> 00:20:34.920
Does somebody have something to share?

192
00:20:34.920 --> 00:20:35.760
Me, me, me.

193
00:20:35.760 --> 00:20:37.240
Yes, Jennifer, go for it.

194
00:20:37.240 --> 00:20:38.920
You know, real quick, two things.

195
00:20:38.920 --> 00:20:40.200
I put mine in the chat.

196
00:20:40.200 --> 00:20:43.240
And did you just say your birthday's February 26th?

197
00:20:43.240 --> 00:20:44.880
26.

198
00:20:44.880 --> 00:20:46.640
We're birthday sisters.

199
00:20:46.640 --> 00:20:47.480
Yes!

200
00:20:49.760 --> 00:20:53.080
There is another girl, and Ebony's birthday

201
00:20:53.080 --> 00:20:55.280
is I think the day before ours.

202
00:20:56.200 --> 00:20:59.600
And then there was another sister in our community.

203
00:20:59.600 --> 00:21:01.120
She's now in phase three.

204
00:21:01.120 --> 00:21:03.600
I think hers was the day before Ebony's.

205
00:21:03.600 --> 00:21:05.520
It was crazy this year.

206
00:21:05.520 --> 00:21:06.480
It was awesome.

207
00:21:06.480 --> 00:21:07.800
I love it.

208
00:21:07.800 --> 00:21:10.920
My birthday sisters, yes, yes, yes.

209
00:21:10.920 --> 00:21:13.200
So yes, ladies, it's good.

210
00:21:13.200 --> 00:21:17.080
I'm telling you, we're stepping into a season.

211
00:21:17.080 --> 00:21:18.280
I love this.

212
00:21:18.280 --> 00:21:20.960
Okay, so let's see.

213
00:21:20.960 --> 00:21:22.720
You said you shared yours in the chat.

214
00:21:22.720 --> 00:21:26.040
So I'm gonna scroll here.

215
00:21:27.280 --> 00:21:30.720
Yes, Jennifer, you had lunch with a young couple

216
00:21:30.720 --> 00:21:34.600
from her new church that she's been attending

217
00:21:34.600 --> 00:21:35.600
for almost a year.

218
00:21:35.600 --> 00:21:36.960
Praise the Lord.

219
00:21:36.960 --> 00:21:38.080
I love it.

220
00:21:39.480 --> 00:21:42.400
She sat with them for hours talking about the word

221
00:21:42.400 --> 00:21:46.880
and shared some testimony for the first time

222
00:21:46.880 --> 00:21:51.160
and also prayed with my marriage promised

223
00:21:51.160 --> 00:21:52.120
and my husband.

224
00:21:52.120 --> 00:21:53.720
Praise the Lord.

225
00:21:53.720 --> 00:21:57.280
Yes, ladies, I want you to be encouraged.

226
00:21:57.280 --> 00:22:00.880
Start linking arms with people that God

227
00:22:00.880 --> 00:22:03.920
is bringing into your life.

228
00:22:03.920 --> 00:22:08.520
Start building those partnerships.

229
00:22:08.520 --> 00:22:11.440
Jackie, like one thing that Jackie released

230
00:22:11.440 --> 00:22:13.240
when I first came to this community

231
00:22:13.240 --> 00:22:15.240
and we were at the last year,

232
00:22:15.240 --> 00:22:18.000
or last year, it was a five-year anniversary.

233
00:22:18.000 --> 00:22:23.000
Jackie brought it up again is community-based matchmaking.

234
00:22:25.600 --> 00:22:27.600
Ladies, that's what she, she brought that.

235
00:22:27.600 --> 00:22:30.200
And like when we first joined in 2020

236
00:22:30.200 --> 00:22:32.960
and y'all the world was shut down in 2020

237
00:22:33.840 --> 00:22:36.600
and this community was formed.

238
00:22:36.600 --> 00:22:37.760
It took off.

239
00:22:37.760 --> 00:22:42.760
I'm telling you the amount of relationships

240
00:22:43.120 --> 00:22:46.640
that I have built just in this community alone

241
00:22:46.640 --> 00:22:49.480
from so many of the women that I walked with.

242
00:22:49.480 --> 00:22:51.160
And then we had men in the community

243
00:22:51.160 --> 00:22:53.880
that became brothers in Christ.

244
00:22:53.880 --> 00:22:57.640
And like just the things that I've gotten to witness,

245
00:22:57.640 --> 00:23:00.400
the love stories that I have gotten to see.

246
00:23:00.400 --> 00:23:03.800
I swear, I just count myself so blessed

247
00:23:03.800 --> 00:23:05.200
to still be in this community.

248
00:23:05.200 --> 00:23:07.280
Cause yes, I've gotten my love story.

249
00:23:07.280 --> 00:23:09.080
I am a success story.

250
00:23:09.080 --> 00:23:11.320
And Jackie could have probably easily kicked me out

251
00:23:11.320 --> 00:23:12.520
because I was no longer single,

252
00:23:12.520 --> 00:23:16.240
but I'm so blessed and thankful

253
00:23:17.120 --> 00:23:21.960
she saw a calling that God placed on me.

254
00:23:21.960 --> 00:23:23.840
She believed in me.

255
00:23:23.840 --> 00:23:24.880
She saw it.

256
00:23:24.880 --> 00:23:26.000
She believed it.

257
00:23:26.000 --> 00:23:28.120
She asked me to join forces.

258
00:23:28.120 --> 00:23:30.080
And I was like, sure.

259
00:23:30.080 --> 00:23:33.040
Y'all, I didn't think this was a thing for me.

260
00:23:34.280 --> 00:23:39.280
And God spoke some crazy words over my marriage

261
00:23:39.400 --> 00:23:42.520
and my family when I stepped in this community.

262
00:23:42.520 --> 00:23:44.600
And I thought it was crazy.

263
00:23:44.600 --> 00:23:45.440
I really did.

264
00:23:45.480 --> 00:23:46.320
I thought it was crazy.

265
00:23:46.320 --> 00:23:48.240
I didn't know how that was gonna look.

266
00:23:48.240 --> 00:23:51.840
And I'm getting to live that out.

267
00:23:51.840 --> 00:23:52.960
And let me tell you,

268
00:23:52.960 --> 00:23:56.240
it doesn't look the way that I thought it was gonna look.

269
00:23:56.240 --> 00:23:58.920
And it came with a lot of discouragement.

270
00:23:58.920 --> 00:24:00.600
And there is a lot of discouragement

271
00:24:00.600 --> 00:24:01.800
that I'm having to walk through.

272
00:24:01.800 --> 00:24:04.400
I'm telling you, I am living it too.

273
00:24:05.280 --> 00:24:06.640
And you know what?

274
00:24:06.640 --> 00:24:11.640
Like that's what I believe God is releasing over us today.

275
00:24:11.680 --> 00:24:15.920
I believe God spent so much time today

276
00:24:15.920 --> 00:24:18.480
just really pouring in,

277
00:24:18.480 --> 00:24:21.720
not just for me, ladies, but this is for you.

278
00:24:22.680 --> 00:24:25.280
God has me here, not for myself.

279
00:24:25.280 --> 00:24:27.160
He has me here for you.

280
00:24:28.560 --> 00:24:30.000
This is for the kingdom.

281
00:24:31.120 --> 00:24:32.360
It really is.

282
00:24:33.240 --> 00:24:35.440
Okay, I wouldn't be here.

283
00:24:35.440 --> 00:24:38.440
I wouldn't have the love story that I have

284
00:24:38.440 --> 00:24:40.680
if it wasn't for Jackie

285
00:24:41.600 --> 00:24:46.600
and all the women that joined this community alongside me.

286
00:24:48.680 --> 00:24:52.080
And he is growing something amazing.

287
00:24:52.080 --> 00:24:57.080
And y'all, it's on fire.

288
00:24:57.440 --> 00:24:59.920
It's burning, okay?

289
00:25:00.000 --> 00:25:06.540
that fire is not burning out. The Holy Spirit is coming to fan that flame so it

290
00:25:06.540 --> 00:25:14.100
does not burn out. All right? So I just really like Holy Spirit is here. Thank

291
00:25:14.100 --> 00:25:21.840
you, thank you, thank you, Jesus. So yeah, take take those opportunities ladies. None

292
00:25:21.840 --> 00:25:27.740
of this is in my notes. Thank you, Jesus. I got to get through all of this stuff

293
00:25:27.740 --> 00:25:32.800
though because there's a lot of good stuff and I do not want to get

294
00:25:32.800 --> 00:25:37.160
distracted. I really believe God wants to share so many good things like he

295
00:25:37.160 --> 00:25:43.880
already is. We're only 25 minutes in. All right, I see Kelly sharing. He's

296
00:25:43.880 --> 00:25:48.600
really calling me to the table to surrender and let go of the permit and

297
00:25:48.600 --> 00:25:54.920
inspection process with the new AC. Yes, I can see that last time this process

298
00:25:54.920 --> 00:25:59.620
took a month and a half from start to finish between the approvals and the

299
00:25:59.620 --> 00:26:04.940
inspection and she is gonna give it to him and she's surrendering all her worry

300
00:26:04.940 --> 00:26:12.560
over it. Yes, we are gonna come into agreement with that, Kelly. Yes, Lord. You

301
00:26:12.560 --> 00:26:16.020
don't have control over it. You're right. We don't. There's a lot of things we don't

302
00:26:16.020 --> 00:26:20.220
have control over and that's okay because God's gonna do something greater

303
00:26:20.320 --> 00:26:26.000
with it. So she's gonna trust the process. We are gonna trust the process for her

304
00:26:26.000 --> 00:26:32.040
and she's gonna trust others to follow through from that company and yes, yes,

305
00:26:32.040 --> 00:26:43.260
yes. Love it. Love it. Love it. Oh, Dana, I'm so excited. You had a 55 plus. Came

306
00:26:43.260 --> 00:26:49.720
together this last Saturday. Wonderful that you got to relax and chat it with

307
00:26:49.720 --> 00:26:56.260
several of us. That is amazing. I love it. All right, ladies. Okay, well, let's get

308
00:26:56.260 --> 00:27:01.820
started here. Okay, I don't want to waste any more. This time isn't wasted. What am

309
00:27:01.820 --> 00:27:05.940
I saying? I'm not even gonna speak that. Time is not wasted. All right, because God

310
00:27:05.940 --> 00:27:11.380
is with us and He is releasing what He wants us to hear. So, ladies, this last

311
00:27:11.380 --> 00:27:17.140
week, last Tuesday, talked about discovery dating, revealing what God

312
00:27:17.200 --> 00:27:23.040
wanted to continue to form in us and as I was listening to Jackie's Supernatural

313
00:27:23.040 --> 00:27:29.360
Saturday, I realized that every single one of us has a story that we're telling

314
00:27:29.360 --> 00:27:37.840
ourselves. Okay, we all have a story we're telling ourselves. Myself included. Y'all,

315
00:27:37.840 --> 00:27:45.000
this Supernatural Saturday this week spoke to me. All right, and y'all, even

316
00:27:45.060 --> 00:27:54.900
after Supernatural Saturday, I felt a lot of discouragement. A lot. Okay, even in my

317
00:27:54.900 --> 00:28:00.780
prayer and fasting, I felt like God wasn't answering and showing up with a

318
00:28:00.780 --> 00:28:06.740
lot of discouragement. Even after my fast was over, I'm like, okay, what's happening?

319
00:28:06.740 --> 00:28:13.180
Sarah Shell, it's good. Don't want to listen to it. It's good. Okay, and honestly, this

320
00:28:13.200 --> 00:28:19.360
teaching today, I really, it, you're gonna get a lot of what she was coaching, like

321
00:28:19.360 --> 00:28:24.600
what she was teaching and releasing. It's, if you have time right after this

322
00:28:24.600 --> 00:28:28.120
call, jump on it. Like, jump on the replay. I mean, I think it's just gonna really

323
00:28:28.120 --> 00:28:33.040
solidify what I think God is gonna speak to us. So, you know, some of those stories,

324
00:28:33.040 --> 00:28:39.800
ladies, are written through disappointment. Some of them are written

325
00:28:39.940 --> 00:28:50.660
through fear, rejection, waiting. Y'all, when I came to this community, I was in

326
00:28:50.660 --> 00:28:53.780
my late 30s and I'd never been married. And I know that's some of your stories

327
00:28:53.780 --> 00:28:58.860
too. Y'all are in your 30s, 40s, maybe even 50s and 60s, and you've never been

328
00:28:58.860 --> 00:29:06.080
married. You're like, yeah, I've been waiting. I get it. I totally get it. And

329
00:29:06.080 --> 00:29:12.300
so maybe that's, that's the, the, that's the story that you've been writing under

330
00:29:12.300 --> 00:29:17.900
this, like, belief of like, well, I've been waiting. Like, I've been doing that. Some

331
00:29:17.900 --> 00:29:24.140
of us are writing our stories through the heartbreak, through experiences that

332
00:29:24.140 --> 00:29:33.100
genuinely have hurt. But ladies, the question isn't whether you have a story,

333
00:29:33.280 --> 00:29:36.440
because we all have stories. We all have those stories. We all have those

334
00:29:36.440 --> 00:29:40.760
disappointments. We all have the fears. We all have something. We all have

335
00:29:40.760 --> 00:29:54.320
something that's hurt us. A heartbreak, a disappointment, a waiting period, okay? But

336
00:29:54.320 --> 00:30:01.360
the question isn't whether we have a story. The question is who?

337
00:30:00.000 --> 00:30:10.440
writing the story. Whether you realize it or not ladies, every one of us at some

338
00:30:10.440 --> 00:30:15.840
point or another are listening to a voice that's helping shape every single

339
00:30:15.840 --> 00:30:25.480
chapter of our story. Every single chapter. And so Jackie took us on

340
00:30:25.480 --> 00:30:29.160
Supernatural Saturday to Luke 5.

341
00:30:32.280 --> 00:30:35.800
If you have your Bible you can turn to it. Okay it's not gonna be a Bible study

342
00:30:35.800 --> 00:30:44.160
but you know I opened my Bible up this morning to it. How many here how many of

343
00:30:44.160 --> 00:30:50.120
you here are familiar with the the series The Chosen? Raise your hand. If

344
00:30:50.120 --> 00:30:54.080
you're not on camera you can just type it in the chat or raise your avatar hand.

345
00:30:54.080 --> 00:30:59.040
I'm pretty sure a lot of you are familiar with it. Okay got three avatar

346
00:30:59.040 --> 00:31:05.160
hands raised. I think most of you that are on camera. I saw Sarah Shell, Dana,

347
00:31:05.160 --> 00:31:13.440
Kelly, Catherine, Jennifer, Teresa. Yep everyone. Okay yep yep. I see I see it. I

348
00:31:13.440 --> 00:31:18.040
see Nancy. She's yep. Edwidge yep. Some of you are really familiar with it. Y'all

349
00:31:18.040 --> 00:31:24.240
it was good. Y'all it's good. I y'all I loved the fact that that show that

350
00:31:24.240 --> 00:31:33.000
series came out because it was a lifeline for me in 2020. Y'all remember it

351
00:31:33.000 --> 00:31:37.320
came out I really do think it came out in 2020. Correct me if I'm wrong. Or at

352
00:31:37.320 --> 00:31:41.960
least that's when I got introduced to it. It was a perfect time. You know when we

353
00:31:41.960 --> 00:31:45.640
we already like watched everything that we could possibly watch on Netflix. We

354
00:31:45.640 --> 00:31:49.680
probably watched things like 50 million times over and I was like I just need

355
00:31:49.680 --> 00:31:52.080
something new to watch. And I need something that was gonna give me

356
00:31:52.080 --> 00:31:57.680
encouragement, hope. My son at the time was five years old and I was like he's

357
00:31:57.680 --> 00:32:02.760
gonna be watching this with me too. And you know some of it was I questioned

358
00:32:02.760 --> 00:32:05.120
like wow this is a lot for a five-year-old. But you know what I was

359
00:32:05.120 --> 00:32:11.120
like I don't care. This is God. This is this is God's Word. This is truth. Like

360
00:32:11.120 --> 00:32:16.200
you know and I know like there's been some controversy with how the directors

361
00:32:16.200 --> 00:32:19.640
and everything have taken it through the years and stuff like that. But again I

362
00:32:19.640 --> 00:32:24.720
still have the opportunity to open the Bible and sit with my son and let Holy

363
00:32:24.720 --> 00:32:31.680
Spirit come in my home. And so anyway I love I love love love that series. And

364
00:32:31.680 --> 00:32:39.520
one of my favorite episodes in the very very beginning was when we're introduced

365
00:32:39.520 --> 00:32:49.680
to Peter, Simon Peter. Is there anyone here I don't know about y'all but in that

366
00:32:49.680 --> 00:32:56.440
if you if you saw that episode when I watched that episode I strongly felt

367
00:32:56.440 --> 00:33:05.360
like I could relate to Peter. Anybody else looking back you've seen the

368
00:33:05.360 --> 00:33:12.240
episode or if you're reading the story can just can really relate to him as a

369
00:33:12.240 --> 00:33:20.600
disciple. Anybody? I know Lucy's got her hand up. I don't know if that was from

370
00:33:20.600 --> 00:33:28.560
before. Yes that was a good one too sir. That one mm-hmm yes you brought that up.

371
00:33:28.560 --> 00:33:36.520
Yep when Mary goes to follow Jesus and he calls her by her name that was a good

372
00:33:36.520 --> 00:33:43.560
one too. Yeah oh girl I still watch that episode. And this and the one with Peter

373
00:33:43.560 --> 00:33:48.520
too. And so that's what Jackie she shared with that on Supernatural Saturday so if

374
00:33:48.520 --> 00:33:54.440
you haven't listened to it definitely go. You know and and in that Jesus tells

375
00:33:54.440 --> 00:34:02.600
Peter go back to where it's deep and cast your net to catch some fish. Okay

376
00:34:02.600 --> 00:34:08.600
he's out there preaching like Jesus is preaching in the boat and Peter was out

377
00:34:08.600 --> 00:34:17.520
all night casting his net and no fish were in his net all night long. And Jesus

378
00:34:17.520 --> 00:34:23.360
is like go back out there. And y'all this this this showed up to me today when I

379
00:34:23.360 --> 00:34:29.159
opened up my Bible. He didn't just say just go back out there. He said go out

380
00:34:29.159 --> 00:34:39.120
where it's deep. Y'all I don't know about you but when I I'm not a fan of swimming

381
00:34:39.120 --> 00:34:47.280
in like oceans and lakes where I can't see the bottom. Y'all I used to live in

382
00:34:47.280 --> 00:34:55.560
Florida and you would not see me going out where I could not touch. You know and

383
00:34:55.560 --> 00:35:01.880
I lived in Sarasota. If you've ever been to Sarasota we have the beautiful

384
00:35:00.000 --> 00:35:04.520
Well, Siesta Key Beach, clear, clear water.

385
00:35:04.560 --> 00:35:07.800
Y'all, you can see, you can see through that water.

386
00:35:07.840 --> 00:35:08.440
Okay.

387
00:35:10.080 --> 00:35:13.960
I love, I loved that because I could see.

388
00:35:14.840 --> 00:35:15.480
All right.

389
00:35:16.200 --> 00:35:20.680
But y'all, Jesus is saying, go out to the deep.

390
00:35:20.680 --> 00:35:22.600
Y'all, you can't see what's in that deep.

391
00:35:23.120 --> 00:35:24.120
That's scary.

392
00:35:25.040 --> 00:35:28.040
But Jesus is telling Peter, go out where it's deep.

393
00:35:28.880 --> 00:35:30.280
Cast your net again.

394
00:35:30.320 --> 00:35:33.880
You can't see it, but Jesus, he can see it.

395
00:35:35.080 --> 00:35:40.000
And Peter's response is basically this y'all.

396
00:35:43.120 --> 00:35:46.160
Is I've tried Jesus.

397
00:35:46.160 --> 00:35:46.760
I've tried.

398
00:35:49.720 --> 00:35:52.240
How many of you have communicated the same thing when Jesus has said

399
00:35:52.240 --> 00:35:57.120
the same thing to you, given you a word and asked you to go do something

400
00:35:57.120 --> 00:35:58.480
and you're like, God, I've done that.

401
00:36:00.680 --> 00:36:06.040
You know, I know I, I'm only going to speak for myself, but when God tells

402
00:36:06.040 --> 00:36:10.360
me to go back out to the deep, I'm stubborn.

403
00:36:12.520 --> 00:36:14.360
I've shared this frequently.

404
00:36:15.080 --> 00:36:16.560
I'm a very stubborn woman.

405
00:36:17.960 --> 00:36:22.160
God is really working on me with that.

406
00:36:22.240 --> 00:36:23.920
Praise, praise him.

407
00:36:23.920 --> 00:36:25.360
I'm thankful for that.

408
00:36:25.360 --> 00:36:32.720
But often my responses sound like I have prayed, I already did that.

409
00:36:33.120 --> 00:36:34.720
I already trusted you with that.

410
00:36:34.960 --> 00:36:36.640
I've already been waiting for that.

411
00:36:37.400 --> 00:36:37.840
You know what?

412
00:36:37.880 --> 00:36:40.200
I have already tried setting those boundaries, Lord.

413
00:36:40.200 --> 00:36:42.280
I've already been honoring those boundaries.

414
00:36:42.280 --> 00:36:43.840
I've already tried that.

415
00:36:45.160 --> 00:36:47.040
Lord, don't you remember I got hurt?

416
00:36:48.120 --> 00:36:50.320
Do you, Lord, don't you remember this pattern?

417
00:36:50.400 --> 00:36:52.160
Lord, don't you remember this pattern?

418
00:36:53.680 --> 00:36:55.840
Like I already dated when I was back.

419
00:36:55.840 --> 00:36:57.760
I was like, I already dated Lord.

420
00:36:58.480 --> 00:36:59.320
I've already done this.

421
00:36:59.520 --> 00:37:01.560
I've already been on the apps.

422
00:37:02.080 --> 00:37:04.440
I've already tried dating on the apps, Lord.

423
00:37:05.400 --> 00:37:06.760
And look at where it got me.

424
00:37:07.800 --> 00:37:10.960
Y'all I met my son's dad on the apps.

425
00:37:11.560 --> 00:37:14.280
So I assure you, I did not want to get back on those apps.

426
00:37:17.160 --> 00:37:19.320
No, no, no, no, no.

427
00:37:21.000 --> 00:37:21.480
Okay.

428
00:37:22.480 --> 00:37:24.080
But God's like, get back on the apps.

429
00:37:24.800 --> 00:37:26.520
I'm like, no, I already did that.

430
00:37:26.640 --> 00:37:27.840
It's like, get back on the apps.

431
00:37:28.480 --> 00:37:31.360
I'm like, he's not gonna, he's not gonna be on my app.

432
00:37:31.400 --> 00:37:33.160
He's not gonna be, he's not gonna be in the apps.

433
00:37:33.200 --> 00:37:35.480
And he's like, okay, get on the apps.

434
00:37:36.600 --> 00:37:42.920
Y'all, I didn't find my husband on an app, but I did find him through online.

435
00:37:45.000 --> 00:37:46.920
It's through this community.

436
00:37:48.680 --> 00:37:49.320
Okay.

437
00:37:50.000 --> 00:37:56.120
But God used the apps to get my feet wet, to get me practicing, to get me working

438
00:37:56.120 --> 00:37:58.520
this heart work and applying it to dating.

439
00:37:59.360 --> 00:38:01.400
And let me tell you, it wasn't always easy.

440
00:38:02.320 --> 00:38:03.840
There was some discouragement.

441
00:38:03.920 --> 00:38:04.600
There was a lot.

442
00:38:04.600 --> 00:38:06.320
I shouldn't say some, there was a lot of discouragement.

443
00:38:06.320 --> 00:38:06.920
Who am I kidding?

444
00:38:07.200 --> 00:38:07.760
Okay.

445
00:38:08.160 --> 00:38:15.320
So I've been trying, like, like that's typically my response.

446
00:38:15.800 --> 00:38:17.400
Is that your response too?

447
00:38:18.400 --> 00:38:19.800
Like, I've already done this, God.

448
00:38:20.760 --> 00:38:22.280
I've already tried to do this.

449
00:38:22.760 --> 00:38:25.960
Ladies, currently I'm sitting here telling God, like, I've already

450
00:38:25.960 --> 00:38:27.800
been trying to love differently.

451
00:38:29.320 --> 00:38:31.640
I've been already trying to do all the things.

452
00:38:32.880 --> 00:38:34.480
Y'all, I'm blending a family.

453
00:38:34.480 --> 00:38:38.440
I'm married now, but let me tell you, there's stretching in that.

454
00:38:40.160 --> 00:38:42.320
And there's times I get discouraged.

455
00:38:42.760 --> 00:38:46.680
And I'm sitting there saying, God, like, I'm sitting here trying to love differently.

456
00:38:47.000 --> 00:38:49.120
I don't like know what else you want from me.

457
00:38:50.040 --> 00:38:50.720
Right?

458
00:38:51.720 --> 00:38:56.080
We've all had at some point this experience, right?

459
00:38:57.600 --> 00:39:03.200
But ladies, what you've experienced and what Peter experienced, it's not a lie.

460
00:39:06.400 --> 00:39:07.360
It's not lies.

461
00:39:08.680 --> 00:39:10.560
Peter had fished all night.

462
00:39:12.720 --> 00:39:14.160
He cast his net.

463
00:39:14.600 --> 00:39:17.840
There, the, there was a fact his net was empty.

464
00:39:19.440 --> 00:39:20.440
It happened.

465
00:39:24.360 --> 00:39:25.760
Your disappointment.

466
00:39:26.760 --> 00:39:27.560
It's real.

467
00:39:28.520 --> 00:39:32.720
It's happened just like Peter's disappointment was real.

468
00:39:35.600 --> 00:39:36.120
Okay.

469
00:39:36.480 --> 00:39:44.320
But ladies, Peter said these words and it completely changed his story.

470
00:39:45.880 --> 00:39:50.280
Nevertheless, at your word.

471
00:39:53.160 --> 00:39:53.680
Okay.

472
00:39:54.320 --> 00:39:57.480
Peter didn't deny that there was disappointment.

473
00:39:59.720 --> 00:40:00.240
Okay.

474
00:40:00.000 --> 00:40:06.800
He just refused that it was going to be the final word.

475
00:40:06.800 --> 00:40:11.320
It wasn't what was going to be what wrote his story.

476
00:40:11.320 --> 00:40:15.860
It wasn't going to be the end of his story.

477
00:40:15.860 --> 00:40:26.480
I don't think the miracle showed up when the fish showed up.

478
00:40:26.480 --> 00:40:41.400
The miracle happened when he decided to listen to God's voice and decide God's voice, God's

479
00:40:41.400 --> 00:40:47.000
word is the one that has the final say.

480
00:40:47.000 --> 00:40:50.680
He's the one that writes the story.

481
00:40:50.680 --> 00:40:55.800
It's not yesterday's disappointment that writes the story.

482
00:40:55.800 --> 00:40:57.600
It's him.

483
00:40:57.600 --> 00:41:00.280
It's Jesus.

484
00:41:00.280 --> 00:41:12.800
So ladies, this week in community, it's happening.

485
00:41:12.800 --> 00:41:14.840
I'm noticing it.

486
00:41:14.840 --> 00:41:20.080
We've got different ladies, we've got different situations, different stories.

487
00:41:20.080 --> 00:41:23.360
I saw several different things.

488
00:41:23.360 --> 00:41:24.360
People are getting curious.

489
00:41:24.360 --> 00:41:30.920
Is this past experience that I've had, is that going to be what this current relationship

490
00:41:30.920 --> 00:41:32.360
is going to look like?

491
00:41:32.360 --> 00:41:37.680
Is it going to end the same way?

492
00:41:37.680 --> 00:41:44.720
Are these old beliefs that I'm wrestling with, are these resurfacing again?

493
00:41:44.720 --> 00:41:45.720
Is that the truth?

494
00:41:45.720 --> 00:41:51.440
Is that the story that's happening again?

495
00:41:52.160 --> 00:41:58.200
Are these areas of growth, the boundaries, am I going to respond the same or am I going

496
00:41:58.200 --> 00:42:03.480
to respond differently?

497
00:42:03.480 --> 00:42:08.400
Trusting God again after the disappointment.

498
00:42:08.400 --> 00:42:12.040
That's what I'm seeing, y'all.

499
00:42:12.040 --> 00:42:17.120
It's different situations, but it is the same invitation.

500
00:42:17.240 --> 00:42:24.280
Every one of these stories, ladies, it has a choice.

501
00:42:24.280 --> 00:42:30.360
So do you want yesterday to write your story?

502
00:42:30.360 --> 00:42:36.880
Or do you want God to write your story?

503
00:42:36.880 --> 00:42:44.240
I'm going to just share just my own personal stuff because it hit me deep this week.

504
00:42:44.240 --> 00:42:47.760
Like I said, I was in prayer this morning, I've been in prayer all weekend, even after

505
00:42:47.760 --> 00:42:59.240
Jackie's Supernatural Saturday, and I realized there are moments when that disappointment

506
00:42:59.240 --> 00:43:09.960
wants to grab the pen and it wants to start writing the next chapter in my story.

507
00:43:09.960 --> 00:43:17.960
Especially in this season, after my singleness, where I'm in marriage and blending a family.

508
00:43:17.960 --> 00:43:19.960
Okay.

509
00:43:19.960 --> 00:43:27.640
I'm going to get real with you ladies.

510
00:43:27.640 --> 00:43:31.240
Not to discourage you, but to give you hope.

511
00:43:31.240 --> 00:43:38.720
You know, it's easy for fear to come in when I have a voice.

512
00:43:38.720 --> 00:43:45.560
It's easy for me to think that there's disappointment that has a voice, or the past experiences

513
00:43:45.560 --> 00:43:50.040
that I lived even in my singleness and even before last year's single, it has a voice

514
00:43:50.040 --> 00:43:51.040
still.

515
00:43:51.040 --> 00:43:58.720
But none of those voices are supposed to be the author of my story.

516
00:43:59.720 --> 00:44:08.720
Y'all, the Lord has been reminding me that if I'm going to believe something about my

517
00:44:08.720 --> 00:44:16.240
future, I want it to come from his word.

518
00:44:16.240 --> 00:44:25.360
Get in the word ladies, get in his word, because feelings are going to change, circumstances

519
00:44:25.360 --> 00:44:33.520
are going to change, disappointments are going to change.

520
00:44:33.520 --> 00:44:41.680
One thing that doesn't change, his word.

521
00:44:41.680 --> 00:44:52.080
His word is the same as it was yesterday, today, and in the future.

522
00:44:52.080 --> 00:44:57.640
It doesn't change.

523
00:44:57.640 --> 00:44:59.640
All that other stuff changes.

524
00:45:00.000 --> 00:45:04.000
All right. So I was praying fiercely in the spirit this morning.

525
00:45:06.000 --> 00:45:11.640
I woke up, I had this, you know, weight of expectancy and joy and urgency.

526
00:45:11.640 --> 00:45:14.800
Like, I'm telling you, y'all, like, that's why I'm in my pajamas still.

527
00:45:15.960 --> 00:45:18.280
Because I was in it. I was in it this morning.

528
00:45:18.600 --> 00:45:23.800
And, you know, he showed me that last year's single has been built on a rock.

529
00:45:26.960 --> 00:45:28.640
Y'all are in this movement.

530
00:45:28.920 --> 00:45:33.240
You are here on divine appointment and for purpose, ladies.

531
00:45:34.920 --> 00:45:39.480
Last year's single is built on the rock that restoration and kingdom marriage

532
00:45:39.480 --> 00:45:42.480
and family is real, and that is what this foundation.

533
00:45:43.600 --> 00:45:44.880
That's the foundation.

534
00:45:44.880 --> 00:45:47.000
This movement is built on that foundation.

535
00:45:47.040 --> 00:45:50.760
God is moving in our lives

536
00:45:50.960 --> 00:45:54.120
on this earth in restoring marriage and family.

537
00:45:54.120 --> 00:46:00.640
OK, and we've had many, many marriages in this movement.

538
00:46:02.720 --> 00:46:09.000
Y'all, many, I know, Jackie, she often says it's like over 1600, y'all.

539
00:46:09.000 --> 00:46:11.640
It's more than that is like way more than that now.

540
00:46:11.640 --> 00:46:14.680
I don't I don't I don't know if she still has a count.

541
00:46:14.960 --> 00:46:20.280
I don't know if she's lost count, but I'm telling you, there is thousands

542
00:46:20.400 --> 00:46:22.760
and many of these stories.

543
00:46:22.760 --> 00:46:26.360
We're we're written because God was given the pen.

544
00:46:30.960 --> 00:46:34.960
There was a supernatural surrender and God was given the given the pen

545
00:46:34.960 --> 00:46:39.120
and in the middle of my praying this morning, my son, Beau, my youngest son

546
00:46:39.120 --> 00:46:42.560
came in, God used him as confirmation.

547
00:46:43.560 --> 00:46:47.520
And I'm telling you, I'm telling you, God used him as confirmation.

548
00:46:47.520 --> 00:46:50.760
God used him as confirmation and.

549
00:46:52.800 --> 00:46:55.280
Reminded me when I came into this community,

550
00:46:55.920 --> 00:46:59.360
because I was I was sitting exactly where you were sitting.

551
00:47:01.440 --> 00:47:03.320
I was a single mom.

552
00:47:04.840 --> 00:47:06.480
Never been married.

553
00:47:08.280 --> 00:47:10.000
Discouraged.

554
00:47:11.160 --> 00:47:13.760
Not sure if it was going to happen.

555
00:47:13.760 --> 00:47:16.320
But I knew God's God had it.

556
00:47:16.440 --> 00:47:19.160
It was a desire of my heart.

557
00:47:21.600 --> 00:47:25.320
And y'all, he began to birth something in me,

558
00:47:25.320 --> 00:47:29.840
began to place those desires and those dreams in my heart again,

559
00:47:30.200 --> 00:47:36.600
and he spoke to me, he spoke over me, he spoke into what my life,

560
00:47:36.840 --> 00:47:40.720
what my marriage and what my family was going to look like.

561
00:47:42.920 --> 00:47:45.600
Oh, Lucy, I hope no one else is frozen, I hope I'm not frozen

562
00:47:45.600 --> 00:47:47.480
for anybody else.

563
00:47:48.640 --> 00:47:51.200
It's in replay, I got this, I got this recording.

564
00:47:51.520 --> 00:47:52.840
OK, good.

565
00:47:55.840 --> 00:47:59.240
And y'all like he spoke that over me.

566
00:48:00.360 --> 00:48:02.280
When I when I joined last year single.

567
00:48:04.880 --> 00:48:09.400
And. And like I said, my son came in

568
00:48:09.400 --> 00:48:13.080
and he reminded me of that this morning and he used my son as confirmation

569
00:48:13.080 --> 00:48:17.360
this morning, and then God spoke to me about the word testimony.

570
00:48:20.240 --> 00:48:23.760
And I believe in Hebrew, it means do it again.

571
00:48:28.240 --> 00:48:32.760
Y'all. That's why that's why testimonies are so powerful.

572
00:48:36.280 --> 00:48:38.520
God is faithful.

573
00:48:38.880 --> 00:48:40.120
God is faithful.

574
00:48:40.120 --> 00:48:43.280
God was faithful before he's faithful today.

575
00:48:44.520 --> 00:48:47.320
And y'all, we're not meant to compare stories.

576
00:48:49.320 --> 00:48:51.920
The stories are meant to be used as an invitation

577
00:48:52.840 --> 00:48:58.080
to believe that the author is still writing your story.

578
00:48:59.840 --> 00:49:04.400
OK, because y'all, God is in the business

579
00:49:04.400 --> 00:49:07.160
of writing stories with victories.

580
00:49:07.640 --> 00:49:09.240
Go read Revelation, y'all.

581
00:49:10.120 --> 00:49:11.720
I know it can be a scary book.

582
00:49:13.280 --> 00:49:15.760
But y'all, we win.

583
00:49:19.600 --> 00:49:23.040
That story is a story of victory.

584
00:49:25.960 --> 00:49:28.400
He is in the business of writing.

585
00:49:29.800 --> 00:49:31.200
Happily ever afters.

586
00:49:33.480 --> 00:49:34.480
Believe it or not.

587
00:49:34.560 --> 00:49:35.560
Believe it or not.

588
00:49:36.800 --> 00:49:40.640
Y'all, and so, ladies, there was something that I heard this week

589
00:49:40.640 --> 00:49:41.800
that really stuck out to me.

590
00:49:43.720 --> 00:49:44.680
And so I want to share it.

591
00:49:46.880 --> 00:49:52.200
I heard we cast out demons, but we tear down strongholds.

592
00:49:55.840 --> 00:49:59.320
And when you ask yourself, like, well, how do we tear down strongholds?

593
00:50:00.000 --> 00:50:06.160
We don't tear them down by trying harder. We don't tear them down by pretending

594
00:50:06.160 --> 00:50:13.880
they aren't there. Y'all don't let the enemy lie to you and get you distracted

595
00:50:13.880 --> 00:50:23.280
and get you to ignore and avoid what's there. I know it can look scary and I

596
00:50:23.280 --> 00:50:32.320
know it can look discouraging, but do not let the enemy write that story. Do not. Do

597
00:50:32.320 --> 00:50:36.040
not pretend that it's not there. But I also don't want you to pretend that it's

598
00:50:36.040 --> 00:50:43.480
hard. Harder than the power of Jesus. The power of the Holy Spirit that raised

599
00:50:43.480 --> 00:50:52.560
Jesus from the dead. Jackie frequently says in our community, it doesn't it

600
00:50:52.560 --> 00:50:57.080
doesn't have to be easy. It just has to be worth it. The Lord has been speaking

601
00:50:57.080 --> 00:51:06.640
that over me and my life for the last several weeks. Heavy, y'all. We replace

602
00:51:06.640 --> 00:51:16.040
those strongholds, those lies, those deceptions, those patterns, those beliefs.

603
00:51:16.040 --> 00:51:31.000
We replace them with God's truth. God's Word. God's Word is the sword. It's how we

604
00:51:31.000 --> 00:51:42.120
fight the battle. We use his word. We use his truth. And so I don't, you know, Peter's

605
00:51:42.200 --> 00:51:47.120
greatest battle that day wasn't the empty nets.

606
00:51:48.920 --> 00:51:55.520
Fished all night wasn't the empty nets.

607
00:51:56.280 --> 00:52:03.840
Those empty nets were trying to tell him something, though. The empty nets were

608
00:52:03.840 --> 00:52:10.320
trying to get him to align with a belief that was a lie. That it's not gonna

609
00:52:10.360 --> 00:52:16.960
happen. Discouragement. Like, look at what you put yourself into. Look at what, look

610
00:52:16.960 --> 00:52:23.200
at what, you know, your decisions, you know, put where they put you. God's not

611
00:52:23.200 --> 00:52:29.880
with you. Look. This is more disappointment. It's not looking the way

612
00:52:29.880 --> 00:52:36.960
that you thought it was gonna look. But y'all, Jesus spoke a different word. His

613
00:52:36.960 --> 00:52:43.200
word is truth. And every one of us, we have a decision to make, ladies. Which

614
00:52:43.200 --> 00:52:48.360
word are you gonna agree with? Are you gonna agree with the enemy? And the lies

615
00:52:48.360 --> 00:52:52.720
of the enemy? And the lies of the past? And the stories that, you know, the hurt

616
00:52:52.720 --> 00:52:57.480
and the disappointment and the outcomes that didn't look the way that

617
00:52:57.480 --> 00:53:06.040
we wanted them to? Are we gonna listen to God and his word and his truth? And so,

618
00:53:06.040 --> 00:53:09.840
ladies, I want you to sit with this for a minute, okay? And then we're gonna move

619
00:53:09.840 --> 00:53:15.720
on, okay? We're almost, we're almost there to the end, okay? I want you to reflect

620
00:53:15.720 --> 00:53:22.600
on this question. And this is also going to be part of your activation this week.

621
00:53:24.360 --> 00:53:31.880
What I-already statement have you been carrying?

622
00:53:32.880 --> 00:53:38.040
Think about that, okay? You might have something that's gonna come up right now,

623
00:53:38.040 --> 00:53:42.720
okay? If it doesn't, don't worry about it, okay? You're gonna have this whole week

624
00:53:42.720 --> 00:53:48.760
to sit, pray, meditate, all that, okay? Spend time with the Lord. What is your

625
00:53:48.760 --> 00:53:54.680
I-already statement been this week? Is it, I already failed? I already trusted? I

626
00:53:54.920 --> 00:54:03.800
already got hurt? I already waited? I already obeyed? I already tried? What is

627
00:54:03.800 --> 00:54:11.560
it? What is that sentence that keeps replaying over and over and over and

628
00:54:11.560 --> 00:54:14.520
over in your mind?

629
00:54:14.520 --> 00:54:25.680
Now, I want you to ask yourself, because this is part of the activation, and again,

630
00:54:25.680 --> 00:54:30.640
it doesn't have to come right now. Maybe it will. I don't know. You listen, y'all

631
00:54:30.640 --> 00:54:37.360
listen to the Lord, okay? The Lord speaks to you. I'm not, I'm not, I'm not God, okay?

632
00:54:37.360 --> 00:54:44.480
But the Lord is gonna speak to you, okay? He's gonna speak to you in His timing.

633
00:54:44.840 --> 00:54:50.840
Now, I want you to ask, I want you to ask yourself this, and sit with this. Is that

634
00:54:50.840 --> 00:54:59.960
sentence from yesterday's disappointment, or is it from God's Word?

635
00:55:00.000 --> 00:55:17.760
Sit with that, ladies.

636
00:55:17.760 --> 00:55:23.920
Is that word from yesterday's disappointment or is it from God's word?

637
00:55:23.920 --> 00:55:36.320
Is that sentence from your past and the enemy or is it from God?

638
00:55:36.320 --> 00:55:38.320
And ladies, this is what I want God.

639
00:55:38.320 --> 00:55:43.000
I want you to spend time with God.

640
00:55:43.000 --> 00:55:52.520
Ask him to show you scripture that he wants to invite you to to replace that I already

641
00:55:52.520 --> 00:55:58.720
statement with.

642
00:55:58.720 --> 00:55:59.720
Ask him to give you a scripture.

643
00:55:59.720 --> 00:56:01.960
You're going to hand it over to him.

644
00:56:01.960 --> 00:56:04.200
You're going to hand over, okay?

645
00:56:04.200 --> 00:56:07.780
You're literally going to say, I'm going to give this to you, Lord.

646
00:56:07.780 --> 00:56:08.780
I'm giving you this.

647
00:56:08.780 --> 00:56:09.780
I already statement.

648
00:56:09.780 --> 00:56:11.160
I'm giving you this disappointment.

649
00:56:11.160 --> 00:56:13.560
I'm giving you this thing from yesterday.

650
00:56:13.560 --> 00:56:14.560
Okay.

651
00:56:14.560 --> 00:56:17.560
And he doesn't leave us empty handed ladies.

652
00:56:17.560 --> 00:56:18.860
Okay.

653
00:56:18.860 --> 00:56:23.500
You want something placed in your hand because when your hand is empty, you don't want to

654
00:56:23.500 --> 00:56:25.900
go pick that thing back up.

655
00:56:25.900 --> 00:56:31.420
But if you're holding on to something else, it's a lot harder to go pick up something

656
00:56:31.420 --> 00:56:43.680
that's covered in dookie when you're holding something that's golden, that's got diamonds

657
00:56:43.680 --> 00:56:45.260
all over it.

658
00:56:45.260 --> 00:56:46.260
Okay.

659
00:56:46.260 --> 00:56:48.540
Thank you, Sarah Shell.

660
00:56:49.220 --> 00:56:50.220
That's Holy Spirit.

661
00:56:50.220 --> 00:56:51.220
That is like, thank you, Jesus.

662
00:56:51.220 --> 00:56:53.220
Like he's here.

663
00:56:53.220 --> 00:56:55.860
All right.

664
00:56:55.860 --> 00:57:00.260
He's going to, he wants to replace it with his word.

665
00:57:00.260 --> 00:57:07.300
Ask the Lord to give you scripture.

666
00:57:07.300 --> 00:57:11.660
Replace it with his word.

667
00:57:11.660 --> 00:57:16.820
Okay, ladies, we're in phase two.

668
00:57:16.820 --> 00:57:17.820
Okay.

669
00:57:18.100 --> 00:57:19.540
We're going to talk a lot about discovery dating.

670
00:57:19.540 --> 00:57:20.540
Okay.

671
00:57:20.540 --> 00:57:23.500
I know some of you are not there yet.

672
00:57:23.500 --> 00:57:24.660
That's totally fine.

673
00:57:24.660 --> 00:57:28.740
Some of you are like, you know, you're out there, you're discovery dating, you're having

674
00:57:28.740 --> 00:57:29.740
fun with it.

675
00:57:29.740 --> 00:57:33.780
Some of you are, I'm doing it Carla and it sucks.

676
00:57:33.780 --> 00:57:34.780
Okay.

677
00:57:34.780 --> 00:57:36.420
Wherever you're at ladies.

678
00:57:36.420 --> 00:57:37.420
Okay.

679
00:57:37.420 --> 00:57:44.100
This phase is about taking what we've learned in phase one of the heart work, that foundation

680
00:57:44.340 --> 00:57:50.820
and it's applying it to our life and in our relationships, not just our dating relationships,

681
00:57:50.820 --> 00:57:53.540
all relationships, ladies.

682
00:57:53.540 --> 00:57:54.900
Okay.

683
00:57:54.900 --> 00:57:58.540
But more specifically, cause I know y'all here for marriage.

684
00:57:58.540 --> 00:57:59.540
Okay.

685
00:57:59.540 --> 00:58:02.820
That's why we, we stretch you to go do this discovery dating.

686
00:58:02.820 --> 00:58:03.820
Okay.

687
00:58:03.820 --> 00:58:06.940
God's going to give you the time of when that needs to happen and what that needs to look

688
00:58:06.940 --> 00:58:08.100
like for you.

689
00:58:08.100 --> 00:58:09.100
Okay.

690
00:58:09.100 --> 00:58:12.580
Don't compare with the other ladies in this, in this community.

691
00:58:12.580 --> 00:58:13.580
Okay.

692
00:58:14.060 --> 00:58:20.540
You spend time with the Lord on that and discovery dating is supposed to, is, is there to help

693
00:58:20.540 --> 00:58:32.420
teach you ladies how to discern people, how to discern those interactions, but ladies,

694
00:58:32.420 --> 00:58:45.780
the heart work on which this, that foundation, okay, the hard work is God's word really is

695
00:58:45.780 --> 00:58:52.540
you go in scripture and y'all can find proof that like what we teach in heartwork, it literally

696
00:58:52.540 --> 00:58:56.420
like God teaches it in the Bible.

697
00:58:56.420 --> 00:58:59.940
I can't tell you countless times when I've like recognized that and I'm like, Oh my gosh,

698
00:58:59.940 --> 00:59:00.940
this is heartwork.

699
00:59:01.460 --> 00:59:02.460
Well, yeah, duh.

700
00:59:02.460 --> 00:59:08.300
It's what God's been trying to give us that message, right?

701
00:59:08.300 --> 00:59:21.820
The heartwork teaches us to discern which voice we're agreeing with.

702
00:59:21.820 --> 00:59:28.100
So ladies, I really, um, want you, this is my closing thought here, and then I'll describe

703
00:59:28.100 --> 00:59:33.460
the activation a little bit into more depth here, and then I'll post it in the app, um,

704
00:59:33.460 --> 00:59:38.820
probably later this evening, ladies, your story isn't finished.

705
00:59:38.820 --> 00:59:42.620
If you're still breathing, ladies, your story's not finished.

706
00:59:42.620 --> 00:59:44.620
God is still writing.

707
00:59:44.620 --> 00:59:46.380
Okay.

708
00:59:46.380 --> 00:59:54.660
Don't hand yesterday's disappointment, the pen y'all I'm preaching this to myself too.

709
00:59:54.660 --> 00:59:56.020
Okay.

710
00:59:56.020 --> 01:00:00.100
Surrender it back to the author who sees the whole story.

711
01:00:00.000 --> 01:00:04.440
story from beginning to end. He's the Alpha. He's the Omega.

712
01:00:06.640 --> 01:00:09.440
Okay. And so this week,

713
01:00:11.320 --> 01:00:13.280
whatever he asks of you,

714
01:00:16.160 --> 01:00:17.080
pray about it.

715
01:00:18.880 --> 01:00:21.480
Pray that your response is that of Peter's.

716
01:00:22.760 --> 01:00:26.600
Nevertheless, at your word.

717
01:00:30.920 --> 01:00:34.880
Okay. So your activation this week. Okay.

718
01:00:34.880 --> 01:00:40.000
I want you, um, it's who's writing your story. That's our activation.

719
01:00:40.560 --> 01:00:44.640
Okay. I know. Very clever title.

720
01:00:44.720 --> 01:00:48.720
Not sure where I got that from. Right. Um,

721
01:00:50.240 --> 01:00:54.680
I want you to be intentional about partnering with the author

722
01:00:55.680 --> 01:00:58.480
of your story and

723
01:01:00.080 --> 01:01:03.080
it's, it's going to be with that. I already statement. Okay.

724
01:01:03.680 --> 01:01:05.960
So I'm going to go back to that.

725
01:01:05.960 --> 01:01:10.440
I already statement and your challenge is going to be to spend time with the

726
01:01:10.440 --> 01:01:14.800
Lord this week. Spend time with them every day. If you can,

727
01:01:15.640 --> 01:01:19.720
I encourage it ladies and just ask him the one simple question.

728
01:01:19.720 --> 01:01:24.560
Cause he can speak to you on the same thing every single

729
01:01:24.560 --> 01:01:28.520
day and just give you more revelation day after day. You know, I,

730
01:01:28.560 --> 01:01:31.840
I frequently go to him with some of the same questions that I asked from him

731
01:01:31.840 --> 01:01:35.960
weeks ago, months ago, years ago. And he always reveals something different.

732
01:01:35.960 --> 01:01:37.840
I mean, I don't know what y'all, but I look at, you know,

733
01:01:37.840 --> 01:01:42.520
I'll read scripture and I'll read scripture and it's scriptures.

734
01:01:42.800 --> 01:01:45.320
His word is shared with me something one time.

735
01:01:45.320 --> 01:01:48.760
And then I go and read it again, you know,

736
01:01:48.840 --> 01:01:53.800
later on and he tells me something different. I mean, something more,

737
01:01:53.840 --> 01:01:58.440
I mean, adds to that story. Okay. So I want you to spend time with him.

738
01:01:58.480 --> 01:02:03.280
This week. And I want you to ask him, Lord, what does your word say about this?

739
01:02:03.280 --> 01:02:07.160
What does your word say about this? All I already statement, you know,

740
01:02:07.160 --> 01:02:11.040
and I want you to find the scripture that he's highlighting for you and I want

741
01:02:11.040 --> 01:02:13.960
you to replace it. I want you to replace that lie.

742
01:02:14.520 --> 01:02:19.040
I want you to want that to remind you of who he is and

743
01:02:19.040 --> 01:02:23.840
remind you of who you are and who he's already created you to be.

744
01:02:25.120 --> 01:02:28.040
And I want you to come back into our community. Ladies,

745
01:02:28.040 --> 01:02:32.160
this is important. Come back to the community,

746
01:02:32.320 --> 01:02:36.680
get in the app and I want you sharing it with us this week.

747
01:02:38.360 --> 01:02:42.240
Let's start releasing these things over our community.

748
01:02:43.800 --> 01:02:47.600
These are words. These words aren't just for us, y'all.

749
01:02:49.640 --> 01:02:53.000
God speaks to us. He doesn't just speak to us for us.

750
01:02:54.280 --> 01:02:56.640
He speaks to us for others too.

751
01:02:58.200 --> 01:03:02.240
It's testimony. It's going to do it again. Let's,

752
01:03:02.280 --> 01:03:06.200
let's start releasing that hope and encouragement

753
01:03:06.840 --> 01:03:11.360
because his word is what fights is the sword that fights that

754
01:03:11.360 --> 01:03:16.200
discouragement. We need to hear his word.

755
01:03:16.480 --> 01:03:19.080
So let's start releasing that to one another.

756
01:03:19.320 --> 01:03:22.680
So once you coming back and I want you filling it up in this community,

757
01:03:23.240 --> 01:03:27.200
it is a challenge ladies. Cause we're not going,

758
01:03:27.200 --> 01:03:29.960
this is we're not, we're going to,

759
01:03:30.000 --> 01:03:33.040
we're going to start casting out the disappointment.

760
01:03:33.640 --> 01:03:38.280
It's time and we're going to start speaking.

761
01:03:38.640 --> 01:03:42.120
We're tearing down those lies. We're tearing down those strongholds.

762
01:03:42.320 --> 01:03:45.760
We're speaking the word over that. Okay. And ladies,

763
01:03:45.760 --> 01:03:48.080
for those of you that are like super creative,

764
01:03:48.120 --> 01:03:50.040
cause I know there's a lot of you out there that are,

765
01:03:50.840 --> 01:03:55.640
I want to make this fun because I really want a lot of participation in this

766
01:03:55.640 --> 01:04:00.240
activation this week. Okay. So if you're super creative,

767
01:04:00.680 --> 01:04:05.520
I'm got, I got a bonus for you. Okay. I got a bonus for you.

768
01:04:06.200 --> 01:04:09.680
I want you to take that place where disappointment has been trying to,

769
01:04:09.680 --> 01:04:13.280
to write the end of your story. And I want you rewriting that ending,

770
01:04:16.200 --> 01:04:18.440
not an ending where fear is writing it,

771
01:04:19.080 --> 01:04:21.960
not an ending where the disappointment is writing it.

772
01:04:22.800 --> 01:04:27.800
I want an ending that reflects the heart of God.

773
01:04:28.680 --> 01:04:33.040
Dream with him, ladies, big dreams,

774
01:04:34.080 --> 01:04:37.920
dreams that you like, there's no way he can do that.

775
01:04:39.240 --> 01:04:42.880
Put it down, put it down on paper, put it down.

776
01:04:42.880 --> 01:04:46.320
However God wants you to create it. Okay.

777
01:04:47.320 --> 01:04:50.240
I want this picture to be a picture of victory,

778
01:04:51.240 --> 01:04:53.320
of what it looks like when God's holding that pen.

779
01:04:55.040 --> 01:04:59.360
So some of you might, some of you might be writers. Okay.

780
01:05:00.000 --> 01:05:02.840
you might write the story, okay?

781
01:05:03.920 --> 01:05:06.040
So maybe that's how you're gonna create it.

782
01:05:06.040 --> 01:05:07.480
Maybe you need to journal it.

783
01:05:07.480 --> 01:05:09.800
Maybe that's how God creates in you.

784
01:05:09.800 --> 01:05:10.980
You journal.

785
01:05:10.980 --> 01:05:13.060
Maybe you're an artist.

786
01:05:13.060 --> 01:05:13.940
Maybe you draw it.

787
01:05:13.940 --> 01:05:15.640
Maybe you paint it.

788
01:05:15.640 --> 01:05:17.440
Maybe you sculpt it.

789
01:05:17.440 --> 01:05:19.300
Maybe you create a graphic.

790
01:05:20.300 --> 01:05:21.940
Maybe it's a vision board.

791
01:05:23.480 --> 01:05:25.120
Okay, if you've been around with us long enough,

792
01:05:25.120 --> 01:05:27.240
and you've been with us since maybe the beginning

793
01:05:27.240 --> 01:05:29.540
of the year, you know that the beginning

794
01:05:29.540 --> 01:05:34.060
of each year we do vision boards, okay?

795
01:05:34.060 --> 01:05:37.180
Maybe you go back and you would create a vision board.

796
01:05:37.180 --> 01:05:41.140
Y'all, isn't, I don't know exactly what day,

797
01:05:41.140 --> 01:05:44.420
but Rosh Hashanah is the new year

798
01:05:44.420 --> 01:05:46.260
is coming up in September, I believe.

799
01:05:47.220 --> 01:05:49.740
So get a head start.

800
01:05:49.740 --> 01:05:52.900
Get a head start on your year, all right?

801
01:05:52.900 --> 01:05:54.820
The Jewish New Year, get a head start.

802
01:05:54.820 --> 01:05:57.300
Create a new vision board, all right?

803
01:05:57.300 --> 01:06:00.620
Add to your vision board, all right?

804
01:06:00.620 --> 01:06:04.220
Whatever God is telling you on how to create,

805
01:06:04.220 --> 01:06:06.180
y'all, I want you to create it,

806
01:06:06.180 --> 01:06:09.940
and I really want you coming back and sharing it with us,

807
01:06:09.940 --> 01:06:12.260
because I want to see these stories.

808
01:06:13.460 --> 01:06:16.400
I know your sisters want to see these stories.

809
01:06:17.340 --> 01:06:22.340
Ladies, God wants to see these stories restore

810
01:06:23.100 --> 01:06:26.140
and redeem and reconcile the disappointment

811
01:06:26.140 --> 01:06:27.660
that y'all have been experiencing,

812
01:06:27.660 --> 01:06:29.940
because I know you've been experiencing it.

813
01:06:30.780 --> 01:06:32.020
How do I know?

814
01:06:32.020 --> 01:06:34.740
Because I've been experiencing it in this season too,

815
01:06:36.020 --> 01:06:37.240
in my own season.

816
01:06:38.140 --> 01:06:40.980
And I also know because I've been where you've been.

817
01:06:40.980 --> 01:06:45.720
And like I said, ladies, I had a lot of discouragement

818
01:06:45.720 --> 01:06:50.720
when I was walking in last year single, being single.

819
01:06:51.280 --> 01:06:54.320
I know I don't like to share it all the time,

820
01:06:54.320 --> 01:06:58.160
but I do share it because it's part of my testimony.

821
01:07:01.640 --> 01:07:05.080
Because that disappointment didn't get

822
01:07:05.080 --> 01:07:07.040
to write the end of the story.

823
01:07:07.040 --> 01:07:08.800
I got a success story.

824
01:07:11.600 --> 01:07:13.160
And you have one too.

825
01:07:13.440 --> 01:07:15.140
And you have one too.

826
01:07:17.920 --> 01:07:21.780
And then prepare yourself.

827
01:07:23.160 --> 01:07:26.640
Get grounded in this, get that foundation.

828
01:07:28.080 --> 01:07:32.640
Walk this out, because it is equipping you

829
01:07:32.640 --> 01:07:35.040
and preparing you, because when you step into marriage

830
01:07:35.040 --> 01:07:36.400
and the enemy wants to attack marriage,

831
01:07:36.400 --> 01:07:37.440
because let me tell you, ladies,

832
01:07:37.440 --> 01:07:38.940
the enemy will attack marriage.

833
01:07:39.940 --> 01:07:44.180
Sin showed up, the enemy showed up in Genesis 3,

834
01:07:44.180 --> 01:07:49.180
right after God created Adam and Eve, created a family.

835
01:07:51.600 --> 01:07:52.940
That is not a circumstance.

836
01:07:52.940 --> 01:07:55.020
That is not coincidence.

837
01:07:55.020 --> 01:07:56.640
So guess what, ladies?

838
01:07:58.300 --> 01:07:59.460
You're getting prepared.

839
01:07:59.460 --> 01:08:00.780
You're getting equipped.

840
01:08:03.580 --> 01:08:06.780
Get that armor of God.

841
01:08:07.700 --> 01:08:09.360
Learn how to put it on.

842
01:08:10.380 --> 01:08:12.180
Walk it out.

843
01:08:12.180 --> 01:08:13.420
Get strong, okay?

844
01:08:13.420 --> 01:08:15.180
It can be heavy, I get it.

845
01:08:15.180 --> 01:08:16.260
Trust me.

846
01:08:16.260 --> 01:08:17.500
There's many times where I'm like,

847
01:08:17.500 --> 01:08:19.300
God, this armor is way too freaking heavy.

848
01:08:19.300 --> 01:08:20.740
I can't do it.

849
01:08:20.740 --> 01:08:22.340
I can't lift that sword.

850
01:08:24.000 --> 01:08:25.340
That just reminds me, like God's like,

851
01:08:25.340 --> 01:08:26.700
okay, you can't lift the sword, but you know what?

852
01:08:26.700 --> 01:08:30.580
I gave David a slingshot and look at what he did.

853
01:08:30.580 --> 01:08:35.580
That was a story, like nobody believed that, right?

854
01:08:41.220 --> 01:08:42.979
That's not an outcome I don't think anybody

855
01:08:42.979 --> 01:08:45.080
thought was gonna happen.

856
01:08:45.080 --> 01:08:46.260
That's a God story.

857
01:08:46.260 --> 01:08:49.060
That is a God ending story, right?

858
01:08:50.340 --> 01:08:54.080
So I want to see that, ladies.

859
01:08:54.080 --> 01:08:56.220
I hope this is encouraging you.

860
01:08:57.100 --> 01:09:01.220
I know I didn't leave a whole lot of time for questions.

861
01:09:01.220 --> 01:09:05.020
I will stick around, like if we have a lot of questions,

862
01:09:05.020 --> 01:09:07.680
I will stick around as long as I possibly can.

863
01:09:07.680 --> 01:09:10.300
I don't like to make these calls super, super long.

864
01:09:10.300 --> 01:09:13.580
Know that at the end of the 90 minutes, ladies,

865
01:09:13.580 --> 01:09:16.100
if you have to jump off, please feel free

866
01:09:16.100 --> 01:09:19.260
to go ahead and jump off if you need to, okay?

867
01:09:19.260 --> 01:09:22.100
I know I didn't do any housekeeping this morning.

868
01:09:22.100 --> 01:09:23.819
We really didn't have a whole lot of housekeeping.

869
01:09:23.819 --> 01:09:25.660
There's nothing brand new, okay?

870
01:09:26.460 --> 01:09:28.779
If you have questions about that, feel free to ask.

871
01:09:28.779 --> 01:09:31.060
If you have some housekeeping questions,

872
01:09:31.060 --> 01:09:33.760
you're allowed to ask that too, okay?

873
01:09:33.760 --> 01:09:36.540
But if you have to jump off at 90 minutes, I get it.

874
01:09:36.540 --> 01:09:39.779
If you have to drop off before the 90 minutes, it's fine.

875
01:09:39.779 --> 01:09:41.859
That's why we've got this in replay, all right?

876
01:09:41.859 --> 01:09:43.779
I really want to encourage y'all.

877
01:09:45.880 --> 01:09:46.939
We got it in replay.

878
01:09:46.939 --> 01:09:49.500
Listen to this over and over and over again in replay.

879
01:09:49.500 --> 01:09:51.460
Like I'm telling you, I think God really, really

880
01:09:51.460 --> 01:09:53.880
wants to release something here today.

881
01:09:54.720 --> 01:09:56.960
And I know, you know, Ebony's probably got something

882
01:09:56.960 --> 01:09:57.780
really good tonight.

883
01:09:57.780 --> 01:10:00.480
I haven't even gotten to touch base with her today, so.

884
01:10:00.000 --> 01:10:10.000
I don't know if she knows like, you know, like what the outline looks like because we try to coach from the same material.

885
01:10:10.000 --> 01:10:14.000
But we are, you know, God speaks to both of us differently.

886
01:10:14.000 --> 01:10:17.000
So I really hope that y'all felt encouraged.

887
01:10:17.000 --> 01:10:24.000
I hope you encourage the other ladies in this community that might not have been on this afternoon call.

888
01:10:24.000 --> 01:10:28.000
Encourage them to watch the replay in the afternoon.

889
01:10:28.000 --> 01:10:29.000
Okay.

890
01:10:29.000 --> 01:10:34.000
And then if you can't make the evening calls, I encourage you to watch that replay.

891
01:10:34.000 --> 01:10:36.000
Okay.

892
01:10:36.000 --> 01:10:38.000
Really, really absorb that.

893
01:10:38.000 --> 01:10:39.000
Be intentional about that.

894
01:10:39.000 --> 01:10:43.000
Invest in yourself, ladies.

895
01:10:43.000 --> 01:10:44.000
Okay.

896
01:10:44.000 --> 01:10:45.000
All right.

897
01:10:45.000 --> 01:10:47.000
I got two hands raised.

898
01:10:47.000 --> 01:10:48.000
Two hands.

899
01:10:48.000 --> 01:10:49.000
Okay.

900
01:10:49.000 --> 01:10:50.000
Jennifer's got a question in the app.

901
01:10:50.000 --> 01:10:56.000
Ladies, if you have a question and you can't unmute, if you want to go ahead and put it in the app.

902
01:10:56.000 --> 01:10:57.000
Not the app.

903
01:10:57.000 --> 01:11:01.000
I'm saying put it in the app if I can't get to it today on this call.

904
01:11:01.000 --> 01:11:03.000
Put it in the chat.

905
01:11:03.000 --> 01:11:09.000
And if I can't get to your question, then put it in the app and we'll answer it in the app.

906
01:11:09.000 --> 01:11:14.000
And ladies, I encourage you to ask your questions in the app.

907
01:11:14.000 --> 01:11:19.000
And go read those questions.

908
01:11:19.000 --> 01:11:21.000
Go read our responses.

909
01:11:22.000 --> 01:11:29.000
You might read someone's question, but go back and read what Ebony and myself, what Holy Spirit is sharing with us to share with your sisters.

910
01:11:29.000 --> 01:11:31.000
It could speak to you, too.

911
01:11:31.000 --> 01:11:32.000
Okay.

912
01:11:32.000 --> 01:11:33.000
All right.

913
01:11:33.000 --> 01:11:34.000
Lisa, I got you.

914
01:11:34.000 --> 01:11:35.000
I got Kelly.

915
01:11:35.000 --> 01:11:38.000
And then I'm going to take ‑‑ I see Jennifer's question.

916
01:11:38.000 --> 01:11:45.000
And then I see Sarah Schultz shared something, so I'm going to hopefully get some time to share that over y'all as well.

917
01:11:45.000 --> 01:11:48.000
And then anybody else, if you have a question, raise your hand.

918
01:11:48.000 --> 01:11:49.000
We've got some time.

919
01:11:49.000 --> 01:11:50.000
All right.

920
01:11:50.000 --> 01:11:51.000
Lisa, how are you?

921
01:11:51.000 --> 01:11:53.000
What's your question today?

922
01:11:53.000 --> 01:11:55.000
I'm good.

923
01:11:55.000 --> 01:12:00.000
So I have been in Level 2 maybe two months.

924
01:12:00.000 --> 01:12:01.000
Okay.

925
01:12:01.000 --> 01:12:04.000
Been doing, you know, the weekly stuff.

926
01:12:04.000 --> 01:12:08.000
But I've not quite ‑‑ I haven't done the app yet.

927
01:12:08.000 --> 01:12:10.000
And I've been a little hesitant.

928
01:12:10.000 --> 01:12:13.000
I feel like I finished the heart work and all.

929
01:12:13.000 --> 01:12:16.000
But I really have been just following the Holy Spirit.

930
01:12:17.000 --> 01:12:25.000
And I started speaking ‑‑ actually, I shared in last Tuesday's call, like, I just know the Lord I'm going to get married.

931
01:12:25.000 --> 01:12:27.000
I am 60 years old.

932
01:12:27.000 --> 01:12:30.000
And my absolute best years are ahead of me.

933
01:12:30.000 --> 01:12:32.000
I mean, I'm just getting started.

934
01:12:32.000 --> 01:12:35.000
But I am scared.

935
01:12:35.000 --> 01:12:37.000
And let me tell you why.

936
01:12:37.000 --> 01:12:40.000
Because I had been sharing with dear people.

937
01:12:41.000 --> 01:12:46.000
And literally on last Tuesday's call, I got the text.

938
01:12:46.000 --> 01:12:51.000
A friend of mine has made a ‑‑ is going to introduce me to a man.

939
01:12:51.000 --> 01:12:52.000
Okay.

940
01:12:52.000 --> 01:12:58.000
And so it's not for a couple weeks.

941
01:12:58.000 --> 01:13:01.000
We don't live in the same city.

942
01:13:01.000 --> 01:13:05.000
And I literally have not ‑‑ I never even really dated.

943
01:13:05.000 --> 01:13:09.000
My whole story ‑‑ anyways, I have not dated much in my life at all.

944
01:13:09.000 --> 01:13:12.000
And I am just literally walking this out.

945
01:13:12.000 --> 01:13:18.000
And my friend shared, you know, his name and just a little bit about him.

946
01:13:18.000 --> 01:13:22.000
You know, he, of course, at my age, he has been married.

947
01:13:22.000 --> 01:13:31.000
And so my question is, when I first ‑‑ when this first happened, I was like, oh, my gosh, of course I was everywhere.

948
01:13:31.000 --> 01:13:34.000
But I was so grateful for this community.

949
01:13:34.000 --> 01:13:41.000
That I had done all this work and I knew, like, I'm not jumping that this is going to be the man, you know.

950
01:13:41.000 --> 01:13:44.000
But my question is, like, she gave me his name.

951
01:13:44.000 --> 01:13:46.000
I'm not on social media.

952
01:13:46.000 --> 01:13:47.000
Okay.

953
01:13:47.000 --> 01:13:51.000
I don't intend to, like, go Google this man or do anything.

954
01:13:51.000 --> 01:13:55.000
My intention is to really lean on the Lord.

955
01:13:55.000 --> 01:13:56.000
Okay.

956
01:13:56.000 --> 01:13:57.000
When the introduction is made.

957
01:13:57.000 --> 01:14:00.000
And it's actually going to be made at a church, you know, on a Sunday.

958
01:14:00.000 --> 01:14:03.000
Okay.

959
01:14:03.000 --> 01:14:13.000
And so my question is, like, what should I be thinking or doing in these next two weeks before this all happens?

960
01:14:13.000 --> 01:14:17.000
And, yeah, just ‑‑

961
01:14:17.000 --> 01:14:18.000
That's a good question.

962
01:14:18.000 --> 01:14:19.000
I like that.

963
01:14:19.000 --> 01:14:20.000
And it's interesting.

964
01:14:20.000 --> 01:14:24.000
Because I ‑‑ you all ladies will notice I'm always writing when you all are speaking.

965
01:14:24.000 --> 01:14:27.000
Because, you know, I want to listen for what you're saying.

966
01:14:27.000 --> 01:14:32.000
And then I also listen to what Holy Spirit is putting on my heart as well.

967
01:14:32.000 --> 01:14:35.000
So I love this question.

968
01:14:35.000 --> 01:14:36.000
This is exciting.

969
01:14:36.000 --> 01:14:37.000
I love it.

970
01:14:37.000 --> 01:14:38.000
Go ahead.

971
01:14:38.000 --> 01:14:41.000
I forgot to share some more context.

972
01:14:41.000 --> 01:14:42.000
Go for it.

973
01:14:42.000 --> 01:14:47.000
All has come through prophetic words that have been given to me over the last 18 months.

974
01:14:47.000 --> 01:14:48.000
Okay.

975
01:14:48.000 --> 01:14:49.000
Good.

976
01:14:49.000 --> 01:14:54.000
And that's how I sort of know, like, this is the Lord.

977
01:14:54.000 --> 01:15:00.000
And my thought since this happened was, well, maybe the Lord is not going to make me get on the apps anyways.

978
01:15:00.000 --> 01:15:06.440
But I'm not, I don't, I don't, I don't know if I should stop, like, not get on an app,

979
01:15:06.440 --> 01:15:07.440
you know.

980
01:15:07.440 --> 01:15:08.440
This is me.

981
01:15:08.440 --> 01:15:09.440
Are you on the apps right now?

982
01:15:09.440 --> 01:15:10.440
No, I'm not.

983
01:15:10.440 --> 01:15:11.440
That's fine.

984
01:15:11.440 --> 01:15:12.440
Okay.

985
01:15:12.440 --> 01:15:13.440
Okay.

986
01:15:13.440 --> 01:15:15.320
And so, you know, I don't, I don't know if this thing is going to work out or not.

987
01:15:15.320 --> 01:15:16.320
Yeah.

988
01:15:16.320 --> 01:15:17.320
Okay.

989
01:15:17.320 --> 01:15:18.320
I'll pause there.

990
01:15:18.320 --> 01:15:19.320
I just wanted to share.

991
01:15:19.320 --> 01:15:20.320
Okay.

992
01:15:20.320 --> 01:15:21.320
All this has been prophetically spoken over me.

993
01:15:21.320 --> 01:15:22.320
Yeah.

994
01:15:22.320 --> 01:15:24.400
So here, this is a lot of the things that I'm, you know, and I, if you've listened to all

995
01:15:24.400 --> 01:15:27.760
of our calls, you know, over the last several weeks, you know, we've talked a lot about

996
01:15:27.760 --> 01:15:30.440
like the uncertainty and the outcomes and things like that.

997
01:15:30.440 --> 01:15:34.280
I mean, I'm hearing some of that coming up, like, what do I do?

998
01:15:34.280 --> 01:15:36.680
Like I want you just to release that.

999
01:15:36.680 --> 01:15:37.680
Okay.

1000
01:15:37.680 --> 01:15:39.440
Just keep practicing that.

1001
01:15:39.440 --> 01:15:41.040
You've been on these calls.

1002
01:15:41.040 --> 01:15:42.160
You're walking that out.

1003
01:15:42.160 --> 01:15:43.520
Just release those outcomes.

1004
01:15:43.520 --> 01:15:44.840
Hold those things loosely.

1005
01:15:44.840 --> 01:15:45.840
Okay.

1006
01:15:45.840 --> 01:15:47.320
You're doing really, really well.

1007
01:15:47.320 --> 01:15:48.320
I see that.

1008
01:15:48.320 --> 01:15:51.120
I see that growth in you.

1009
01:15:51.120 --> 01:15:54.560
And just, yeah, you just show up every day, show up every day.

1010
01:15:54.560 --> 01:15:55.800
Like Laura, what do you have for me?

1011
01:15:55.800 --> 01:15:57.120
What do you have for me?

1012
01:15:57.480 --> 01:16:01.000
He's not a God that's going to force you to do something.

1013
01:16:01.000 --> 01:16:02.520
He's not going to bring you peace.

1014
01:16:02.520 --> 01:16:03.520
All right.

1015
01:16:03.520 --> 01:16:07.040
You know, ladies, I don't, I'll share this.

1016
01:16:07.040 --> 01:16:12.600
Like I'm one of these people, I'm sure y'all can, this probably will resonate and y'all

1017
01:16:12.600 --> 01:16:17.200
will be like, well, that makes a whole lot of sense because I can say a lot of words

1018
01:16:17.200 --> 01:16:18.440
and I get really distracted.

1019
01:16:18.440 --> 01:16:19.680
I've got the ADD.

1020
01:16:19.680 --> 01:16:20.680
All right.

1021
01:16:20.680 --> 01:16:25.560
And I can sit there and God can sit here and give me like a million different things to

1022
01:16:25.560 --> 01:16:26.560
do.

1023
01:16:26.560 --> 01:16:28.920
And I'm like, okay, I got to do this.

1024
01:16:28.920 --> 01:16:29.920
I got to do this.

1025
01:16:29.920 --> 01:16:30.920
I got to do this.

1026
01:16:30.920 --> 01:16:31.920
I got to do this.

1027
01:16:31.920 --> 01:16:34.920
And like, sometimes he's like, okay, just because I gave you the idea doesn't mean it

1028
01:16:34.920 --> 01:16:37.760
has to be done right now.

1029
01:16:37.760 --> 01:16:39.920
He's like, sit on it.

1030
01:16:39.920 --> 01:16:40.920
Sit still.

1031
01:16:40.920 --> 01:16:42.560
Listen to me.

1032
01:16:42.560 --> 01:16:48.360
He's like, I'm putting these, you know, these, these desires, I'm putting these ideas in

1033
01:16:48.360 --> 01:16:49.360
your head.

1034
01:16:49.360 --> 01:16:53.760
You know, they're from me, but whoo, don't put the pressure on yourself.

1035
01:16:53.760 --> 01:16:55.200
Just sit with them.

1036
01:16:55.840 --> 01:17:03.200
And so I want to, I really feel that really heavy, um, for you to do the same, like there's

1037
01:17:03.200 --> 01:17:05.160
no rush.

1038
01:17:05.160 --> 01:17:06.160
Just sit with them.

1039
01:17:06.160 --> 01:17:07.160
Sit quietly.

1040
01:17:07.160 --> 01:17:09.560
What's your, what's your next faithful step?

1041
01:17:09.560 --> 01:17:10.920
Hold those things loosely.

1042
01:17:10.920 --> 01:17:11.920
Okay.

1043
01:17:11.920 --> 01:17:15.920
Especially in the, in the, in the realm of, you know, do I get on the apps?

1044
01:17:15.920 --> 01:17:16.920
Do I not?

1045
01:17:16.920 --> 01:17:17.920
Okay.

1046
01:17:17.920 --> 01:17:22.000
The fact that you're curious about it and that you're considering it, that might just

1047
01:17:22.000 --> 01:17:23.000
be it.

1048
01:17:24.000 --> 01:17:27.480
God just wants us to sit in curiosity.

1049
01:17:27.480 --> 01:17:28.480
Get curious ladies.

1050
01:17:28.480 --> 01:17:29.480
That's what we've been.

1051
01:17:29.480 --> 01:17:32.960
That's what I really feel like the Lord had been releasing for several weeks over our

1052
01:17:32.960 --> 01:17:39.400
community is just getting curious, being open to being open for his will, not ours.

1053
01:17:39.400 --> 01:17:40.400
Right.

1054
01:17:40.400 --> 01:17:41.400
Okay.

1055
01:17:41.400 --> 01:17:43.600
And so just want to sit with that.

1056
01:17:43.600 --> 01:17:44.920
Okay.

1057
01:17:44.920 --> 01:17:47.240
You're just, you know, you're walking it out.

1058
01:17:47.240 --> 01:17:49.120
You're doing like, I love it.

1059
01:17:50.040 --> 01:17:59.080
Another thing that I wrote down, your friend, how well does she know this person?

1060
01:17:59.080 --> 01:18:02.920
So my friend is, is a pastor and she's known him 35 years.

1061
01:18:02.920 --> 01:18:03.920
Okay.

1062
01:18:03.920 --> 01:18:07.320
So I want like that right there, some information.

1063
01:18:07.320 --> 01:18:08.320
I know.

1064
01:18:08.320 --> 01:18:09.320
Okay.

1065
01:18:09.320 --> 01:18:13.360
Like Jackie said, it's community-based matchmaking, matchmaking, so you're right.

1066
01:18:13.360 --> 01:18:14.720
You don't need all the social media.

1067
01:18:14.720 --> 01:18:17.120
You don't need to do the background checks because guess what?

1068
01:18:17.120 --> 01:18:18.120
Do you trust this pastor?

1069
01:18:18.120 --> 01:18:19.120
Do you trust this friend?

1070
01:18:19.120 --> 01:18:20.120
Yeah.

1071
01:18:20.120 --> 01:18:21.120
Yeah.

1072
01:18:21.120 --> 01:18:22.120
Okay.

1073
01:18:22.120 --> 01:18:23.120
You've been praying for that.

1074
01:18:23.120 --> 01:18:24.120
Wow.

1075
01:18:24.120 --> 01:18:25.720
I keep praying.

1076
01:18:25.720 --> 01:18:28.120
I have been since it happened, but this came out of the blue.

1077
01:18:28.120 --> 01:18:31.600
I'm like, I was, you're in this community.

1078
01:18:31.600 --> 01:18:32.600
Here's the thing.

1079
01:18:32.600 --> 01:18:34.560
You've been in, you're in this community, right?

1080
01:18:34.560 --> 01:18:35.560
Yeah.

1081
01:18:35.560 --> 01:18:38.480
But I just didn't, this is not my pastor.

1082
01:18:38.480 --> 01:18:42.600
I mean, but it's a friend, like it's someone you trust.

1083
01:18:42.600 --> 01:18:45.120
It is someone that you know in community.

1084
01:18:45.120 --> 01:18:46.120
Yeah.

1085
01:18:46.120 --> 01:18:52.640
And I'm sorry, I was honored that this woman actually even thought of me for someone she's

1086
01:18:52.640 --> 01:18:56.120
known for 35 years, because I certainly haven't known her that long.

1087
01:18:56.120 --> 01:18:57.120
Yeah.

1088
01:18:57.120 --> 01:19:00.360
And I also hear you saying, you know, and I want to keep us moving here because I know

1089
01:19:00.360 --> 01:19:04.360
I got some other questions and I'm not trying to rush us, but I want to make sure I get

1090
01:19:04.360 --> 01:19:11.500
everything that I know, like I know I want to share with you is, you know, I even hear

1091
01:19:11.500 --> 01:19:17.220
you saying like, I'm already not in this mindset of like, Oh, is he my husband?

1092
01:19:17.220 --> 01:19:18.380
Is he not?

1093
01:19:18.380 --> 01:19:22.460
That shows me you're in this community and you are absorbing the things that we coach

1094
01:19:22.460 --> 01:19:23.460
you on.

1095
01:19:23.460 --> 01:19:24.460
Absolutely.

1096
01:19:24.460 --> 01:19:26.420
Continue to have that heart posture.

1097
01:19:26.420 --> 01:19:27.420
Okay.

1098
01:19:27.420 --> 01:19:28.420
Continue to be open.

1099
01:19:28.420 --> 01:19:30.980
Like, Lord, I know this is from you.

1100
01:19:30.980 --> 01:19:32.180
I don't know what the outcome is.

1101
01:19:32.180 --> 01:19:35.780
I don't know if this is my spirit mate or not, but I know that this is from you.

1102
01:19:35.780 --> 01:19:41.860
So I'm inviting whatever it is that you want me to receive from it and just keep praying

1103
01:19:41.860 --> 01:19:42.860
to that.

1104
01:19:42.860 --> 01:19:43.860
Keep believing that.

1105
01:19:43.860 --> 01:19:44.860
Stay in the word.

1106
01:19:44.860 --> 01:19:46.060
Just trust him with that.

1107
01:19:46.060 --> 01:19:51.420
I really, um, and share it, share it in our community.

1108
01:19:51.420 --> 01:19:52.420
Okay.

1109
01:19:52.420 --> 01:19:57.540
Are you, um, I know you said you're like, you haven't really dove into the app yet.

1110
01:19:57.540 --> 01:19:59.100
Is there any hesitations that you have?

1111
01:19:59.100 --> 01:20:00.100
Is there anything that we can help?

1112
01:20:00.000 --> 01:20:03.360
help you with, so you feel more confident and more comfortable

1113
01:20:00.100 --> 01:20:01.100
Yeah.

1114
01:20:01.100 --> 01:20:01.100


1115
01:20:03.360 --> 01:20:04.160
with that.

1116
01:20:04.160 --> 01:20:05.640
You mean like a dating app?

1117
01:20:05.640 --> 01:20:09.400
No, I'm talking about our app, our last year single app.

1118
01:20:09.400 --> 01:20:14.560
To be honest, I kept trying to do it when I was in level one,

1119
01:20:14.560 --> 01:20:18.320
and then I felt like I'd been in here so long it would be stupid.

1120
01:20:18.320 --> 01:20:20.240
I've never posted in the app.

1121
01:20:20.240 --> 01:20:21.840
Ladies, please don't.

1122
01:20:21.840 --> 01:20:23.560
I just are.

1123
01:20:23.560 --> 01:20:25.280
I love your honesty.

1124
01:20:25.280 --> 01:20:28.720
Ladies, there's something with honesty, OK?

1125
01:20:28.720 --> 01:20:31.680
Every week, I said, I'm going to do it this week.

1126
01:20:31.680 --> 01:20:33.720
And I don't really know what it is.

1127
01:20:33.720 --> 01:20:35.400
I'm just sort of a private person,

1128
01:20:35.400 --> 01:20:37.880
but I hear it loud and clear.

1129
01:20:37.880 --> 01:20:39.640
And I was so grateful for this community

1130
01:20:39.640 --> 01:20:42.640
when that text came through, because I could have gone down

1131
01:20:42.640 --> 01:20:48.400
an unhealthy rabbit road.

1132
01:20:48.400 --> 01:20:50.920
But I was like, no, this might not be.

1133
01:20:50.920 --> 01:20:52.680
But anyways, I'm all up.

1134
01:20:52.680 --> 01:20:56.400
OK, ladies, I will post this week,

1135
01:20:56.400 --> 01:20:59.880
and I'm sharing with y'all, and I'm

1136
01:20:59.880 --> 01:21:04.920
going to share just how I got to be 60 and never married.

1137
01:21:04.920 --> 01:21:06.200
I love it, Lisa.

1138
01:21:06.200 --> 01:21:06.720
Thank you.

1139
01:21:06.720 --> 01:21:09.400
Lisa, you know what?

1140
01:21:09.400 --> 01:21:12.600
You're releasing something over a lot of the women on this call,

1141
01:21:12.600 --> 01:21:14.800
and the women that are going to watch this and replay,

1142
01:21:14.800 --> 01:21:15.600
because guess what?

1143
01:21:15.600 --> 01:21:18.560
You're not the only one that's not posted in this app.

1144
01:21:18.560 --> 01:21:19.520
Yeah.

1145
01:21:19.520 --> 01:21:21.240
I'll tell you what else, yeah.

1146
01:21:21.240 --> 01:21:26.040
So they're going to hear the courage,

1147
01:21:26.040 --> 01:21:28.440
and they're going to hear the strength,

1148
01:21:28.440 --> 01:21:30.800
and it's going to speak to their hearts, too.

1149
01:21:30.800 --> 01:21:31.320
Thank you.

1150
01:21:31.320 --> 01:21:33.000
Community is all about.

1151
01:21:33.000 --> 01:21:34.000
Yeah, it is.

1152
01:21:34.000 --> 01:21:34.520
It is.

1153
01:21:34.520 --> 01:21:37.560
And I really felt it last Tuesday when this happened,

1154
01:21:37.560 --> 01:21:40.280
and I was like, thank God I have this community.

1155
01:21:40.280 --> 01:21:41.720
Yes.

1156
01:21:41.720 --> 01:21:45.120
Y'all, I cannot tell you how blessed

1157
01:21:45.120 --> 01:21:47.000
I am from this community.

1158
01:21:47.000 --> 01:21:51.240
And I'm so thankful I still continue to be blessed.

1159
01:21:51.240 --> 01:21:53.880
Like I said, I thought Jackie could easily kick me out.

1160
01:21:53.880 --> 01:21:55.240
I'm thankful she didn't.

1161
01:21:56.240 --> 01:22:02.400
Because y'all, like, going through it single

1162
01:22:02.400 --> 01:22:06.360
and getting the love story has been amazing, OK?

1163
01:22:06.360 --> 01:22:09.600
Not discounting that, OK?

1164
01:22:09.600 --> 01:22:14.000
Before I got the success story before the marriage,

1165
01:22:14.000 --> 01:22:16.120
God already blessed me in this community.

1166
01:22:16.120 --> 01:22:19.400
The things that he brought in my single season

1167
01:22:19.400 --> 01:22:21.080
through this community was a blessing.

1168
01:22:21.080 --> 01:22:23.280
The intimacy and the greater relationship

1169
01:22:23.280 --> 01:22:27.720
that I came to know the father was, honestly, that was,

1170
01:22:27.720 --> 01:22:31.000
that in of itself was a gift.

1171
01:22:31.000 --> 01:22:33.280
And y'all, he continues to keep blessing me.

1172
01:22:33.280 --> 01:22:39.280
Because I can say now, six years, it's almost six years

1173
01:22:39.280 --> 01:22:47.320
now, I get more blessing and more gift by coaching you all

1174
01:22:47.360 --> 01:22:53.800
and being part of walking the journey with y'all.

1175
01:22:53.800 --> 01:22:55.200
And I thank you for that.

1176
01:22:55.200 --> 01:22:57.400
I thank you for trusting me with that.

1177
01:22:57.400 --> 01:22:59.800
I know I don't, I'm speaking for myself.

1178
01:22:59.800 --> 01:23:02.200
But I believe I'm also speaking for all the other coaches.

1179
01:23:02.200 --> 01:23:04.280
I know Jackie feels the same way.

1180
01:23:04.280 --> 01:23:07.560
Like, it is an honor for us to be

1181
01:23:07.560 --> 01:23:12.680
able to walk this out with y'all.

1182
01:23:12.680 --> 01:23:15.160
So thank you so much for being here.

1183
01:23:15.160 --> 01:23:17.240
I really appreciate it.

1184
01:23:17.240 --> 01:23:17.880
Thank you.

1185
01:23:17.880 --> 01:23:19.040
Your blessing.

1186
01:23:19.040 --> 01:23:20.960
All right, Kelly, how are you, love?

1187
01:23:26.080 --> 01:23:29.440
Good, I have your birthday, too, February 26.

1188
01:23:29.440 --> 01:23:33.400
Yes, we got birthday buddies up in here.

1189
01:23:33.400 --> 01:23:34.960
I love it.

1190
01:23:34.960 --> 01:23:37.800
Right?

1191
01:23:37.800 --> 01:23:39.160
Right.

1192
01:23:39.160 --> 01:23:43.040
So anyway, I haven't been here for a while.

1193
01:23:43.040 --> 01:23:43.760
That's OK.

1194
01:23:43.760 --> 01:23:49.840
But anyway, I have been just so angry.

1195
01:23:49.840 --> 01:23:50.640
Angry.

1196
01:23:50.640 --> 01:23:53.120
Just angry.

1197
01:23:53.120 --> 01:23:57.880
Anyway, I've been on some days angry.

1198
01:24:00.640 --> 01:24:07.440
And I thought I did my forgiveness, my forgiveness

1199
01:24:07.440 --> 01:24:09.000
worksheets.

1200
01:24:09.000 --> 01:24:09.520
OK.

1201
01:24:09.720 --> 01:24:16.400
And I don't know if I need to go back and do some more forgiveness

1202
01:24:16.400 --> 01:24:17.440
or what the deal is.

1203
01:24:17.440 --> 01:24:23.480
But it seems like I'm just getting triggered.

1204
01:24:23.480 --> 01:24:24.960
Triggered, triggered, triggered.

1205
01:24:24.960 --> 01:24:27.280
Anger.

1206
01:24:27.280 --> 01:24:31.920
And it stinks.

1207
01:24:31.920 --> 01:24:36.000
Yeah, I get it.

1208
01:24:36.000 --> 01:24:41.240
So your question, is it, do I go back?

1209
01:24:41.240 --> 01:24:43.360
Do I go back to artwork?

1210
01:24:43.360 --> 01:24:45.320
Do I go back to artwork?

1211
01:24:45.320 --> 01:24:53.240
I mean, I've been in phase two for a long time.

1212
01:24:53.240 --> 01:24:54.800
Don't want you comparing.

1213
01:24:54.800 --> 01:24:56.480
I said that at the beginning of this call.

1214
01:24:56.480 --> 01:24:58.120
Don't compare.

1215
01:24:58.120 --> 01:24:59.680
OK?

1216
01:25:00.000 --> 01:25:02.200
I was in this community for a really long time, too.

1217
01:25:02.200 --> 01:25:06.500
I was in this community, and I didn't date for over a year

1218
01:25:06.500 --> 01:25:09.400
when I was in this community, okay?

1219
01:25:09.400 --> 01:25:14.900
We all have, like, God has us all on a different journey, okay?

1220
01:25:14.900 --> 01:25:16.200
We're here to support each other.

1221
01:25:16.200 --> 01:25:17.400
We're here to lift each other up.

1222
01:25:17.400 --> 01:25:22.200
We're here to stretch each other, okay?

1223
01:25:22.200 --> 01:25:24.400
One thing that I want to express,

1224
01:25:24.400 --> 01:25:27.800
and I'm glad y'all, like, Kelly, thank you.

1225
01:25:27.800 --> 01:25:29.200
Thank you for this vulnerability.

1226
01:25:29.200 --> 01:25:33.900
Thank you for coming and just sharing the rawness,

1227
01:25:33.900 --> 01:25:36.800
the vulnerability, the realness.

1228
01:25:36.800 --> 01:25:39.800
Just, it's honest.

1229
01:25:39.800 --> 01:25:41.100
Ladies, I think I shared this.

1230
01:25:41.100 --> 01:25:42.600
I don't know if I shared this on the call last week.

1231
01:25:42.600 --> 01:25:44.800
I had a couple one-on-one sessions this week.

1232
01:25:44.800 --> 01:25:50.200
Maybe I shared on a one-on-one session.

1233
01:25:50.400 --> 01:25:59.700
If we can't be honest before the Lord and to ourselves,

1234
01:25:59.700 --> 01:26:02.200
then there's not really a whole lot

1235
01:26:02.200 --> 01:26:04.000
that God's going to be able to do in our hearts

1236
01:26:04.000 --> 01:26:07.100
if we're not able to be honest.

1237
01:26:07.100 --> 01:26:10.700
And so I want to recognize the courage

1238
01:26:10.700 --> 01:26:14.100
that it takes to come on these calls

1239
01:26:14.100 --> 01:26:16.600
and to speak up and to ask your questions,

1240
01:26:16.600 --> 01:26:18.100
to go in the app and just say,

1241
01:26:18.100 --> 01:26:26.100
hey, I'm angry and I'm triggered and it sucks.

1242
01:26:26.100 --> 01:26:29.500
That's courage.

1243
01:26:29.500 --> 01:26:31.200
And when you do that,

1244
01:26:31.200 --> 01:26:33.300
the things that you release for all the women

1245
01:26:33.300 --> 01:26:36.300
in this community is huge.

1246
01:26:36.300 --> 01:26:40.300
Because, Kelly, you're not the only one.

1247
01:26:40.300 --> 01:26:41.900
You're sitting there and this is,

1248
01:26:41.900 --> 01:26:44.500
I guarantee you someone's watching this in replay right now

1249
01:26:44.500 --> 01:26:47.700
and they're like, Kelly, thank you so much

1250
01:26:47.700 --> 01:26:52.500
because I thought I was the only one.

1251
01:26:52.500 --> 01:26:57.100
And they're thankful that you asked that question.

1252
01:26:57.100 --> 01:26:58.400
Because it's through that question

1253
01:26:58.400 --> 01:27:03.900
that God can speak to everyone in this community.

1254
01:27:03.900 --> 01:27:09.300
Okay, the wisdom in this,

1255
01:27:09.300 --> 01:27:11.400
hard work doesn't stop.

1256
01:27:11.400 --> 01:27:14.400
And I know you ladies have heard me share that.

1257
01:27:14.400 --> 01:27:15.500
Let this be the reminder.

1258
01:27:15.500 --> 01:27:16.800
It doesn't stop.

1259
01:27:16.800 --> 01:27:23.500
So, Kelly, if you feel like I need to go back to the hard work,

1260
01:27:23.500 --> 01:27:26.100
let's do that.

1261
01:27:26.100 --> 01:27:27.800
When you think about going back to the hard work,

1262
01:27:27.800 --> 01:27:31.500
are there fears that come up?

1263
01:27:31.500 --> 01:27:36.900
Well, I feel like I went back to the forgiveness chapter

1264
01:27:36.900 --> 01:27:39.300
in Jackie's book.

1265
01:27:39.300 --> 01:27:42.900
Like, what's going on?

1266
01:27:43.000 --> 01:27:46.600
Like, why, like, I'm asking myself,

1267
01:27:46.600 --> 01:27:50.600
like, what, like, why am I,

1268
01:27:50.600 --> 01:27:52.800
like, what am I getting angry about?

1269
01:27:52.800 --> 01:27:54.200
Like, it doesn't matter.

1270
01:27:54.200 --> 01:27:56.400
Like, it don't matter.

1271
01:27:56.400 --> 01:27:59.300
It can be little things.

1272
01:27:59.300 --> 01:28:03.200
It's just like, I can go from zero to 90.

1273
01:28:03.200 --> 01:28:10.900
Okay, I, this might be a challenge for you, okay?

1274
01:28:10.900 --> 01:28:12.700
It's a challenge for me.

1275
01:28:12.700 --> 01:28:14.200
I say this because this is a challenge for me,

1276
01:28:14.200 --> 01:28:18.800
because I'm like, wait, this is what I'm supposed to coach?

1277
01:28:18.800 --> 01:28:24.800
Okay, so I'm sitting here like, God, are you sure?

1278
01:28:24.800 --> 01:28:29.200
Is that really what I'm supposed to be doing?

1279
01:28:29.200 --> 01:28:33.200
I really feel like the Lord is telling me,

1280
01:28:33.200 --> 01:28:36.000
he wants you to sit,

1281
01:28:36.000 --> 01:28:41.200
and he wants you to start asking some different questions.

1282
01:28:41.200 --> 01:28:44.300
That might be a, that might be a challenge.

1283
01:28:44.300 --> 01:28:47.500
I said that, I feel, I'm feeling challenged by that,

1284
01:28:47.500 --> 01:28:49.900
because I'm like, God, I don't, like,

1285
01:28:49.900 --> 01:28:51.300
how do you ask different questions?

1286
01:28:51.300 --> 01:28:53.700
I don't know.

1287
01:28:53.700 --> 01:28:57.300
But I believe the Lord's going to speak to you,

1288
01:28:57.300 --> 01:29:00.100
and he's going to give you some different questions to ask

1289
01:29:00.100 --> 01:29:05.300
that's going to really help you get to,

1290
01:29:05.300 --> 01:29:10.500
get to the core of what it is

1291
01:29:10.500 --> 01:29:13.200
that he's wanting to reveal to you.

1292
01:29:13.200 --> 01:29:15.500
I love that you're going back, like,

1293
01:29:15.500 --> 01:29:17.100
he's showing a good work in you.

1294
01:29:17.100 --> 01:29:18.900
He's showing you, you know what?

1295
01:29:18.900 --> 01:29:21.700
You're walking out what you know to do,

1296
01:29:21.700 --> 01:29:24.400
but he's wanting to grow you.

1297
01:29:24.400 --> 01:29:26.600
He's like, okay, you're doing these things,

1298
01:29:26.600 --> 01:29:27.900
and this is good.

1299
01:29:27.900 --> 01:29:30.600
There's more.

1300
01:29:30.600 --> 01:29:32.500
There's more.

1301
01:29:32.500 --> 01:29:35.900
And once you start asking some different questions,

1302
01:29:35.900 --> 01:29:37.600
he's going to take you a little deeper.

1303
01:29:37.600 --> 01:29:39.400
Oh, thank you, Jesus.

1304
01:29:39.500 --> 01:29:43.000
Just like he's, like he shared with Peter,

1305
01:29:43.000 --> 01:29:52.000
go back out and go to the deep, okay?

1306
01:29:52.000 --> 01:29:56.800
And Kelly, don't do this alone.

1307
01:30:00.000 --> 01:30:05.000
Your community is here with you. We are here with you.

1308
01:30:05.000 --> 01:30:08.000
Share it.

1309
01:30:08.000 --> 01:30:16.000
You already have the courage. You're coming here. You're being honest, real, raw, vulnerable.

1310
01:30:16.000 --> 01:30:21.000
You can get in the app and share this week.

1311
01:30:21.000 --> 01:30:25.000
What? Take us through what God is showing you.

1312
01:30:25.000 --> 01:30:34.000
Ladies, I'm serious about this activation. I believe that God wants to do something in this activation this week.

1313
01:30:34.000 --> 01:30:37.000
It is time to start breaking chains.

1314
01:30:37.000 --> 01:30:44.000
It is time to start tearing down these straw holds, these lies that we've been aligning with.

1315
01:30:44.000 --> 01:30:49.000
And God is wanting to take you into the new season.

1316
01:30:50.000 --> 01:30:58.000
Y'all, we're still in summer, but the harvest is coming.

1317
01:30:58.000 --> 01:31:02.000
So I want you to sit with that, OK?

1318
01:31:02.000 --> 01:31:06.000
Don't get discouraged. You feel discouraged. I want you to come into this community.

1319
01:31:06.000 --> 01:31:13.000
I want you to share it. And you have sisters here that are going to be praying for you and be lifting you up.

1320
01:31:13.000 --> 01:31:15.000
Thank you. OK.

1321
01:31:15.000 --> 01:31:20.000
All right. I'm going to go back here. I know Jennifer had a question in the chat.

1322
01:31:20.000 --> 01:31:30.000
She says, I know Jackie sometimes or says sometimes when a word hasn't come to pass, sometimes depending on when the word was given to let it go.

1323
01:31:30.000 --> 01:31:36.000
My question, how do I know to hold on to a dream I had years ago?

1324
01:31:36.000 --> 01:31:40.000
I still haven't forgotten or to let it go.

1325
01:31:40.000 --> 01:31:44.000
That's a really good question.

1326
01:31:44.000 --> 01:31:50.000
I, I, Jackie has shared this many times.

1327
01:31:50.000 --> 01:31:57.000
I remember her speaking the same thing over.

1328
01:31:57.000 --> 01:32:00.000
To this community when I was single.

1329
01:32:00.000 --> 01:32:03.000
About those prophetic words.

1330
01:32:03.000 --> 01:32:11.000
I remember specifically kind of talking about, you know, prophetic words that, you know, were spoken like over a decade ago.

1331
01:32:11.000 --> 01:32:15.000
And she's like, some of y'all are still holding on to these words from a decade ago.

1332
01:32:15.000 --> 01:32:18.000
And, you know, like some of y'all need to let those go.

1333
01:32:18.000 --> 01:32:23.000
And then some of you need to pick up those old words.

1334
01:32:23.000 --> 01:32:26.000
And.

1335
01:32:26.000 --> 01:32:33.000
What I feel the Lord saying to me through your question.

1336
01:32:33.000 --> 01:32:40.000
And from what I recall, when Jackie was speaking that.

1337
01:32:40.000 --> 01:32:43.000
To this community when I was a single.

1338
01:32:43.000 --> 01:32:46.000
Is.

1339
01:32:46.000 --> 01:32:50.000
It's not about.

1340
01:32:50.000 --> 01:32:56.000
Being giving the given the answer of.

1341
01:32:56.000 --> 01:33:00.000
What do I let go and what do I pick back up?

1342
01:33:00.000 --> 01:33:02.000
Okay.

1343
01:33:02.000 --> 01:33:06.000
Like, how do I know?

1344
01:33:06.000 --> 01:33:09.000
It's not about that. It's more or less.

1345
01:33:09.000 --> 01:33:13.000
It's about the heart posture.

1346
01:33:13.000 --> 01:33:16.000
It's about the.

1347
01:33:16.000 --> 01:33:23.000
Holding things loosely, like kind of what I was sharing with Kelly.

1348
01:33:23.000 --> 01:33:28.000
Holding it loosely and laying it before the Lord surrender that word.

1349
01:33:28.000 --> 01:33:31.000
Take that word to the Lord. Lord.

1350
01:33:31.000 --> 01:33:34.000
This is a word you gave me.

1351
01:33:34.000 --> 01:33:38.000
Can you show me? Did you did you fulfill this word?

1352
01:33:38.000 --> 01:33:41.000
Is there more to this word?

1353
01:33:41.000 --> 01:33:45.000
Is there a new word? Is there an additional word?

1354
01:33:45.000 --> 01:33:48.000
Are you modifying this word?

1355
01:33:48.000 --> 01:33:54.000
Kelly, maybe these are some of the questions. I don't know.

1356
01:33:54.000 --> 01:33:59.000
Go, go to the Lord with that. Sit with him on that.

1357
01:33:59.000 --> 01:34:03.000
And then allow him to speak.

1358
01:34:03.000 --> 01:34:07.000
To you. And again, don't ladies. I don't want you to think that all of a sudden.

1359
01:34:07.000 --> 01:34:13.000
It's like lightning bolts that all of a sudden God just bam gives us the answer.

1360
01:34:13.000 --> 01:34:16.000
I wish it was like that.

1361
01:34:16.000 --> 01:34:22.000
Y'all this weekend was like that. I'm like, I prayed and I fasted and I'm not getting the answers.

1362
01:34:22.000 --> 01:34:27.000
And I had to sit, you know, and I've been praying and fasting the last couple weekends.

1363
01:34:27.000 --> 01:34:31.000
And I'm like, what are you showing me here? Like, I want the answer.

1364
01:34:31.000 --> 01:34:36.000
And, you know, he's giving me some glimmers, but I'm still like, yeah, but you're not giving me everything that I want.

1365
01:34:36.000 --> 01:34:39.000
You're not giving me the full answer.

1366
01:34:39.000 --> 01:34:45.000
And so sometimes it takes God a minute.

1367
01:34:45.000 --> 01:34:49.000
Okay. And so I want.

1368
01:34:50.000 --> 01:34:56.000
I just feel like Jennifer, I hope that answers your question.

1369
01:34:56.000 --> 01:34:59.000
So sit with that.

1370
01:34:59.000 --> 01:35:00.000
And I'm going to.

1371
01:35:00.000 --> 01:35:02.160
I'm gonna stretch all of you this week.

1372
01:35:02.160 --> 01:35:05.760
I want y'all coming in this app and I want you sharing.

1373
01:35:07.500 --> 01:35:09.260
I want you sharing with us.

1374
01:35:09.260 --> 01:35:11.260
I know some of you are private.

1375
01:35:11.260 --> 01:35:15.360
I know some of you don't always like

1376
01:35:15.360 --> 01:35:17.640
to share the personal stuff.

1377
01:35:17.640 --> 01:35:20.540
I get it, okay?

1378
01:35:22.000 --> 01:35:25.220
Ladies, let this be practice, okay?

1379
01:35:25.220 --> 01:35:26.860
Like if we tell you ladies,

1380
01:35:26.860 --> 01:35:29.540
when you go on dates, don't like deep dive.

1381
01:35:30.200 --> 01:35:33.180
You can share with us some personal pieces,

1382
01:35:33.180 --> 01:35:35.200
but you don't have to share it all.

1383
01:35:36.260 --> 01:35:40.460
You can highlight, share the highlights with us, okay?

1384
01:35:42.220 --> 01:35:47.220
And let Holy Spirit unveil what He wants you to share.

1385
01:35:48.020 --> 01:35:51.020
You know, maybe myself or Ebony will come in

1386
01:35:51.020 --> 01:35:53.060
and maybe we'll ask you more question

1387
01:35:53.060 --> 01:35:54.580
and want a little bit more detail.

1388
01:35:54.580 --> 01:35:58.060
Let God stretch you there, that's fine, okay?

1389
01:35:58.980 --> 01:36:03.140
I'm gonna stretch you ladies to do that this week, okay?

1390
01:36:03.140 --> 01:36:04.960
Caitlin, I see your hand up.

1391
01:36:04.960 --> 01:36:06.540
I'm gonna take your question.

1392
01:36:06.540 --> 01:36:07.780
I know we're about six minutes over,

1393
01:36:07.780 --> 01:36:09.660
but I think we take Caitlin's question

1394
01:36:09.660 --> 01:36:11.760
and I go through a couple of things in the chat.

1395
01:36:11.760 --> 01:36:13.300
I think we'll be good to end.

1396
01:36:13.300 --> 01:36:15.180
So Caitlin, how are you?

1397
01:36:15.180 --> 01:36:17.140
Good, thank you for taking my question

1398
01:36:17.140 --> 01:36:20.260
and I feel like this is the first time I'm speaking to you.

1399
01:36:20.260 --> 01:36:21.700
I'm based in London, England.

1400
01:36:21.700 --> 01:36:25.620
So I listened to most of the replays,

1401
01:36:25.620 --> 01:36:27.940
but the timing isn't always great.

1402
01:36:28.780 --> 01:36:29.620
But today I made it happen,

1403
01:36:29.620 --> 01:36:32.100
so I thought I'll ask my question.

1404
01:36:32.100 --> 01:36:33.340
So thank you.

1405
01:36:33.340 --> 01:36:35.140
A couple of weeks ago,

1406
01:36:35.140 --> 01:36:36.940
you were coaching some questions

1407
01:36:36.940 --> 01:36:41.580
about someone who was involved with a non-Christian

1408
01:36:41.580 --> 01:36:44.060
and there were some questions about

1409
01:36:44.060 --> 01:36:46.780
when do I ask someone if they're a Christian

1410
01:36:46.780 --> 01:36:49.580
and what does that look like?

1411
01:36:49.580 --> 01:36:50.900
So that's the first part of my question

1412
01:36:50.900 --> 01:36:54.020
because I've been on the apps about a month now

1413
01:36:55.100 --> 01:36:56.500
and I'm getting some matches,

1414
01:36:56.500 --> 01:36:59.300
but not that many matches.

1415
01:36:59.300 --> 01:37:02.340
So Christian is one of my non-negotiables.

1416
01:37:02.340 --> 01:37:05.060
So anytime someone doesn't have Christian

1417
01:37:05.060 --> 01:37:07.980
on their profile, I swipe no.

1418
01:37:07.980 --> 01:37:12.660
And I'm wondering if that's the right approach or,

1419
01:37:12.660 --> 01:37:14.820
I mean, right, maybe there's no right or wrong,

1420
01:37:14.820 --> 01:37:18.100
but I know that long-term,

1421
01:37:18.100 --> 01:37:19.980
that's what I'm looking for as a Christian,

1422
01:37:19.980 --> 01:37:24.340
but is there, in discovery dating,

1423
01:37:24.340 --> 01:37:28.580
the opportunity to be passing the net really wide

1424
01:37:28.580 --> 01:37:31.980
and seeing what's out there

1425
01:37:31.980 --> 01:37:34.420
or being really specific about

1426
01:37:34.420 --> 01:37:37.020
this non-negotiable for myself?

1427
01:37:37.020 --> 01:37:39.220
Girl, I think God's already speaking to you.

1428
01:37:41.460 --> 01:37:43.780
I think he's already speaking to you.

1429
01:37:43.780 --> 01:37:45.100
You are getting curious.

1430
01:37:45.100 --> 01:37:48.940
Like, okay, like, can I go ahead and cast this out

1431
01:37:48.940 --> 01:37:51.100
because I'm swiping no.

1432
01:37:51.100 --> 01:37:53.060
You know, what's a non-negotiable?

1433
01:37:53.060 --> 01:37:55.900
Just because it's a non-negotiable does not mean

1434
01:37:55.900 --> 01:38:00.900
when we're on the app that we can open that net up

1435
01:38:01.540 --> 01:38:02.820
because here's the thing.

1436
01:38:04.420 --> 01:38:08.460
Who's to say the guy is sharing that, okay?

1437
01:38:08.460 --> 01:38:10.020
We don't know.

1438
01:38:10.020 --> 01:38:12.100
And so like, you even shared, you're like,

1439
01:38:12.100 --> 01:38:15.220
I'm getting some likes, but I'm not getting a whole lot.

1440
01:38:15.220 --> 01:38:17.980
So maybe there's something that God's like,

1441
01:38:17.980 --> 01:38:21.220
okay, I'm gonna have you cast it out a little wide

1442
01:38:21.220 --> 01:38:22.500
because I wanna show you something

1443
01:38:22.940 --> 01:38:23.860
and maybe he's gonna show you something

1444
01:38:23.860 --> 01:38:24.740
with a non-believer.

1445
01:38:24.740 --> 01:38:25.740
I don't know.

1446
01:38:25.740 --> 01:38:26.820
We don't know.

1447
01:38:26.820 --> 01:38:30.140
Okay, ladies, just because you're casting your net

1448
01:38:30.140 --> 01:38:33.420
and connecting with people that are non-believers, okay?

1449
01:38:33.420 --> 01:38:37.140
I'm not asking you to get romantic with them, okay?

1450
01:38:37.140 --> 01:38:38.780
We're discovery dating.

1451
01:38:38.780 --> 01:38:41.820
We are learning more about yourself,

1452
01:38:41.820 --> 01:38:43.540
learning more about others,

1453
01:38:43.540 --> 01:38:47.460
learning more about how we walk this hard work process out,

1454
01:38:47.460 --> 01:38:51.740
how we invite that process in,

1455
01:38:51.780 --> 01:38:54.660
what it is that God wants to invite us into,

1456
01:38:54.660 --> 01:38:56.580
what is he trying to highlight to us?

1457
01:38:56.580 --> 01:38:58.300
What is he trying to teach?

1458
01:38:58.300 --> 01:38:59.940
We have no certainty.

1459
01:39:00.820 --> 01:39:02.820
We are getting curious.

1460
01:39:02.820 --> 01:39:04.700
So we are casting those nets out.

1461
01:39:04.700 --> 01:39:06.540
So if God is placing on your heart,

1462
01:39:06.540 --> 01:39:08.620
like I already feel like that's kind of,

1463
01:39:08.620 --> 01:39:10.580
you're already getting this like idea,

1464
01:39:10.580 --> 01:39:13.020
like, well, what if I did this?

1465
01:39:14.220 --> 01:39:17.260
Take the risk, okay?

1466
01:39:18.300 --> 01:39:20.220
Okay, hold the boundaries.

1467
01:39:20.260 --> 01:39:21.500
Ladies, I'm not telling,

1468
01:39:21.500 --> 01:39:23.540
please do not hear what I am not saying.

1469
01:39:23.540 --> 01:39:24.660
I'm not sitting here saying,

1470
01:39:24.660 --> 01:39:27.620
oh yeah, it's non-negotiable that,

1471
01:39:27.620 --> 01:39:29.980
you gotta have a believer, you know?

1472
01:39:29.980 --> 01:39:32.580
But I'm gonna say, just don't worry about that.

1473
01:39:32.580 --> 01:39:36.300
No, ladies, when you are meeting people,

1474
01:39:36.300 --> 01:39:41.300
before you move it to a stage of deeper relationships

1475
01:39:42.140 --> 01:39:46.260
and you're still holding that non-negotiable,

1476
01:39:46.260 --> 01:39:48.660
that's still a boundary, okay?

1477
01:39:48.660 --> 01:39:49.820
All right?

1478
01:39:50.420 --> 01:39:52.220
You're just spending time with the Lord and just saying,

1479
01:39:52.220 --> 01:39:55.980
okay, how are you going to show me

1480
01:39:55.980 --> 01:39:59.460
someone's heart for you, Lord?

1481
01:40:00.000 --> 01:40:05.440
Because ladies, men can sit there and say that they're Christians on their app, on their profile,

1482
01:40:06.960 --> 01:40:11.920
and you're swiping on them and saying, oh yeah, oh yeah, look at this, this guy's a believer.

1483
01:40:13.280 --> 01:40:19.120
So we're taking that as fact, and truth, and certainty, and oh, that's it. And y'all,

1484
01:40:19.680 --> 01:40:26.400
we're not, we're not walking it out. We're not practicing that discernment. Y'all, happened to me.

1485
01:40:27.120 --> 01:40:36.400
My son's father, biological father, he said all the right things. He was a believer. He went to

1486
01:40:36.400 --> 01:40:44.480
church. Y'all, we went to church together when we were having struggles. Oh, let's go to church.

1487
01:40:44.480 --> 01:40:48.320
Okay. Then when we really were having struggles and he was leaving me seven months pregnant,

1488
01:40:48.320 --> 01:40:51.200
I'm like, let's get back at church. And he's like, well, that's great. But

1489
01:40:51.840 --> 01:40:53.600
but how's that going to change you?

1490
01:40:56.800 --> 01:41:03.280
He had all the right words, but ladies, my son is about to turn 11 next week.

1491
01:41:04.640 --> 01:41:12.640
His 11th birthday is literally next Tuesday. And y'all, my son, my youngest son,

1492
01:41:13.600 --> 01:41:21.600
my biological son comes to me still. He sees us, we live in Texas now, his dad lives in Michigan.

1493
01:41:21.600 --> 01:41:29.280
And my son's dad still will ask me, mom, does my dad, is my dad a believer?

1494
01:41:30.960 --> 01:41:37.600
Does my dad believe in God? And I always tell my son, I'm like, honey, ask your dad,

1495
01:41:38.560 --> 01:41:45.520
ask your dad what his relationship is. And he does. And he'll come back and be like,

1496
01:41:45.520 --> 01:41:49.680
yeah, he believes in God, but I think it looks different.

1497
01:41:51.920 --> 01:41:59.520
I'm like, okay. Well, guess what? We can pray. We can pray.

1498
01:42:00.480 --> 01:42:09.440
And so I want that to sit with you ladies. I know a lot of you have that desire. I mean,

1499
01:42:09.440 --> 01:42:16.160
I want that to be a non-negotiable for each and every one of you. 100% y'all. I do not want to

1500
01:42:16.160 --> 01:42:22.080
see y'all entering any relationships and marriages where you are not in alignment

1501
01:42:22.880 --> 01:42:30.960
in that belief, because when marriage, you want to be grounded on that covenant and that belief

1502
01:42:30.960 --> 01:42:36.720
that Jesus is your Lord and savior. And there is an intimate relationship and you are walking

1503
01:42:36.720 --> 01:42:44.560
your life out with someone who is in that partnership with you. But I don't want you to

1504
01:42:44.560 --> 01:42:49.840
think when you're getting the information, I want you to sit and be able to discern

1505
01:42:50.720 --> 01:42:55.760
what that looks like. Not just by what someone says or what someone puts on their profile or

1506
01:42:55.760 --> 01:42:59.840
what someone doesn't put on their profile or whether or not someone's going to church every

1507
01:42:59.840 --> 01:43:11.600
week or not going to church every week, sit with it, get to know them, walk through what that looks

1508
01:43:11.600 --> 01:43:18.480
like in the discovery dating process. Okay. That's a good question.

1509
01:43:18.480 --> 01:43:25.520
It's really counter-intuitive to my dating in the past, but that's partially why I'm here.

1510
01:43:28.080 --> 01:43:32.080
You know what Jackie always used to say, and she's like, how's that working for you?

1511
01:43:34.320 --> 01:43:39.440
And I'm like, okay, I guess I'm going to do things differently.

1512
01:43:39.440 --> 01:43:45.200
Okay. So I love it. I love that attitude. Thank you so much, Caitlin. Really appreciate it. And

1513
01:43:45.200 --> 01:43:49.760
thank you for coming from all the way from London. I love it. I love when we get ladies.

1514
01:43:52.560 --> 01:43:55.600
Who was it? Catherine. Catherine, she's still here. Catherine's all the way

1515
01:43:55.600 --> 01:44:01.440
from Norway. I think she might've had to jump off. I love it. I love that we have women from

1516
01:44:01.440 --> 01:44:06.560
all over the world. It's so exciting. Okay. I'm going to just quickly, I know I'm like

1517
01:44:07.200 --> 01:44:12.640
14, 15 minutes over. I'm going to just run through the chat, see what people are sharing,

1518
01:44:12.640 --> 01:44:20.400
and then we will close out in prayer and get going. Sarah Shell, one thing, one of the reasons

1519
01:44:20.400 --> 01:44:26.240
she thinks Satan didn't attack till after Eve was formed was because in Hebrew, she was initially

1520
01:44:26.240 --> 01:44:35.440
called Ezra. Yes. Which is one of the names for Holy Spirit. Yes. Yes. Yes. Helper. Absolutely.

1521
01:44:36.000 --> 01:44:42.160
Holy Spirit is the, I'm probably going to butcher this pronunciation. Go for it.

1522
01:44:43.680 --> 01:44:50.800
Dunamis. Dunamis. Thank you. Power of God. And so likely Holy Spirit is the one that kicked

1523
01:44:50.800 --> 01:44:59.360
Satan's rotten self out of heaven. As Jesus said, I saw Satan fall like lightning. Yes. Y'all. Woo.

1524
01:44:59.360 --> 01:44:59.840
That's good.

1525
01:45:00.000 --> 01:45:05.200
Absolutely. It's why Satan comes after us. Mm hmm. Yeah, he's not

1526
01:45:05.200 --> 01:45:11.640
happy. He got cast out y'all. He's prideful. Very prideful.

1527
01:45:12.320 --> 01:45:16.600
And so, you know, I feel like there's even a word with that

1528
01:45:16.640 --> 01:45:22.760
ladies don't don't let pride get in the way of this of this

1529
01:45:22.760 --> 01:45:27.600
story. Okay. I don't know. I feel like that's some that's

1530
01:45:27.600 --> 01:45:36.000
something for somebody. Okay. Okay, I see Peggy. She's

1531
01:45:36.000 --> 01:45:40.120
sharing a situation. Peggy, are you still on? I don't know. I

1532
01:45:40.120 --> 01:45:44.000
don't see her. Yeah, she is. Peggy. I responded to you in

1533
01:45:44.000 --> 01:45:46.840
the app. I want you to go in there because last night I was

1534
01:45:46.840 --> 01:45:51.560
responding to something that I think you posted about Friday's

1535
01:45:51.560 --> 01:45:54.800
date and I went and responded and then I don't know if it was

1536
01:45:54.800 --> 01:46:00.200
a glitch in the app. Or if maybe it got deleted. I want

1537
01:46:00.200 --> 01:46:03.680
you to go I want you to check in with me on that. Okay, I

1538
01:46:03.680 --> 01:46:09.840
deleted it. Okay, I actually deleted it. I got scared. Oh, I

1539
01:46:09.840 --> 01:46:13.960
love you. I'm so negative. I'm being so negative. I'm getting

1540
01:46:14.000 --> 01:46:16.880
I'm feeling so down. I could hear the stuff that I had

1541
01:46:16.880 --> 01:46:21.040
posted. Okay. Okay. Well, I want you to just put another post and

1542
01:46:21.040 --> 01:46:24.880
just say, Hey, Carla. Yep, you're right. I deleted it. I

1543
01:46:24.880 --> 01:46:30.360
saved my response to that post. Okay, I will copy and paste my

1544
01:46:30.360 --> 01:46:38.920
response to it. I saved my post. Okay. I copied it. And so I'll

1545
01:46:40.800 --> 01:46:44.840
Okay, I'll should I do it in total? Or should I take some

1546
01:46:44.840 --> 01:46:48.760
that I had edit I wanted to edit some negative stuff out? Should

1547
01:46:48.760 --> 01:46:50.520
I leave it just the way it was?

1548
01:46:52.120 --> 01:46:53.480
What does Holy Spirit tell you to do?

1549
01:46:55.600 --> 01:46:59.720
So with it, leave it. Okay, then do that. Just share all my

1550
01:46:59.720 --> 01:47:04.720
dirty laundry like how low and low in the dumps I was. There

1551
01:47:04.720 --> 01:47:08.960
you go. Okay. Yep. We're here to meet you wherever you're at.

1552
01:47:09.200 --> 01:47:12.840
Just like I mean, God needs us wherever we're at. Yeah. Right.

1553
01:47:13.280 --> 01:47:16.000
And I think it's going to inspire and encourage the other

1554
01:47:16.000 --> 01:47:21.960
women in this community. So go for it. I love it. I love it. I

1555
01:47:21.960 --> 01:47:22.520
love it.

1556
01:47:22.960 --> 01:47:27.680
Kind of scary, but I will know I know girl. You're brave. You

1557
01:47:27.720 --> 01:47:32.440
girl y'all if you've been here for a minute and you have you

1558
01:47:32.440 --> 01:47:37.240
know, you've been following Peggy story y'all y'all y'all

1559
01:47:37.240 --> 01:47:43.120
agree with me here. This woman has shown so much strength and

1560
01:47:43.120 --> 01:47:48.360
so much courage and so much growth. Like her testimony is

1561
01:47:49.600 --> 01:47:53.520
awesome. And it's just good. She's continuing. God is

1562
01:47:53.520 --> 01:47:57.880
continuing to add testimony and story after story after story

1563
01:47:57.880 --> 01:48:02.120
for that and it is going to be a good one. So share it all with

1564
01:48:02.120 --> 01:48:06.480
us Peggy because your testimony is is for the kingdom. Okay.

1565
01:48:06.720 --> 01:48:11.440
Awesome. All right. I think I think did I get everybody's?

1566
01:48:14.400 --> 01:48:16.640
Is it a good idea to connect with a man who doesn't have

1567
01:48:16.640 --> 01:48:19.600
Christian on his profile? Okay, so I think I answered that. I

1568
01:48:19.600 --> 01:48:23.360
don't know if Edward is still on here. If she's not up she is

1569
01:48:23.360 --> 01:48:29.880
okay, good. Hopefully you heard that. Okay, Nancy, it's been a

1570
01:48:29.880 --> 01:48:34.160
long time since you've been on apps. You know what, try a

1571
01:48:34.160 --> 01:48:38.160
different app, Nancy. Try a different app. Nancy, you know

1572
01:48:38.160 --> 01:48:41.000
what y'all if I don't know if Nancy's still here. I can't see

1573
01:48:41.000 --> 01:48:44.840
let's see she might not still be here. Y'all go in and look at

1574
01:48:44.840 --> 01:48:47.880
her post over the last couple weeks. She's had lots of

1575
01:48:47.880 --> 01:48:52.920
breakthrough really, really good stuff. Yes. Okay. Yep. Edwidge,

1576
01:48:52.920 --> 01:48:58.040
I did. I answered your question. Perfect. Okay, ladies. Did

1577
01:48:58.040 --> 01:49:01.160
anybody else see anything that I didn't answer before I jump off?

1578
01:49:01.160 --> 01:49:02.560
Yes, they're shell. What's up?

1579
01:49:03.560 --> 01:49:06.200
I put in there what if reading testimonies doesn't activate

1580
01:49:06.200 --> 01:49:11.840
helping you? Okay. Why? Why do you think that is? I don't know.

1581
01:49:11.840 --> 01:49:15.000
It's always been like that. Okay, it's been very, very rare

1582
01:49:15.000 --> 01:49:18.640
that I mean, not saying that never happens. But I'm talking

1583
01:49:18.640 --> 01:49:23.360
it is rare that something that goes in a night something like I

1584
01:49:23.360 --> 01:49:27.160
want to latch on to that, you know, now Jackie's testimony did

1585
01:49:27.160 --> 01:49:29.480
because mine is so similar to her, you know, coming out of the

1586
01:49:29.640 --> 01:49:32.480
being chased by wolves, you know, that kind of thing, like

1587
01:49:32.480 --> 01:49:37.360
first dead, but there's so many others. And then when I go in,

1588
01:49:37.360 --> 01:49:40.000
like when I used to go into the app in phase one, and you know,

1589
01:49:40.000 --> 01:49:43.680
respond to whatever. What triggers for me is my coaching

1590
01:49:43.680 --> 01:49:46.720
because I was a coach for 25 years. Yeah, you know, and then

1591
01:49:46.720 --> 01:49:50.000
you guys go don't coach and I'm like, well, then why am I in

1592
01:49:50.000 --> 01:49:53.240
here? Otherwise, you know, why am I reading all this? I'm not

1593
01:49:53.240 --> 01:49:53.920
here to help.

1594
01:49:54.240 --> 01:49:56.240
Yes, I know. And you know,

1595
01:49:56.240 --> 01:49:59.640
big deal, you know, well, and I know that

1596
01:50:00.000 --> 01:50:04.000
I don't know if you've been in recently, there's a lot of women that I've been seeing and ladies,

1597
01:50:04.000 --> 01:50:12.000
I don't ever want to discourage you from going in and sharing something that you feel Holy Spirit in there, okay?

1598
01:50:12.000 --> 01:50:19.000
Because here's the thing, I'm not God. I'm not, okay?

1599
01:50:19.000 --> 01:50:26.000
We just want to make sure that we're leaving room and that we're not coaching from our own lens, you know?

1600
01:50:26.000 --> 01:50:32.000
And us coaches, we do that. I have to diligently make sure that when I'm coaching you ladies,

1601
01:50:32.000 --> 01:50:38.000
I'm not coaching you from a lens of the stuff that I'm going through too. We're human, okay?

1602
01:50:38.000 --> 01:50:46.000
And so we do that because we also want to make sure that you're not putting all of the focus on the giving

1603
01:50:46.000 --> 01:50:52.000
and coaching others that you're neglecting yourself from receiving, okay?

1604
01:50:52.000 --> 01:51:00.000
That happens sometimes and so that's why we give that encouragement is because we've seen that.

1605
01:51:00.000 --> 01:51:06.000
I've seen that in myself when I was a single because I just naturally tend to want to give celebration,

1606
01:51:06.000 --> 01:51:11.000
encouragement, and coach, you know? That's just, it's in my nature, okay?

1607
01:51:11.000 --> 01:51:22.000
And so there were times in my single season where I could tell I was focusing more on helping others and not myself.

1608
01:51:22.000 --> 01:51:29.000
And so that's why we share that and so we just want, we put that in there as a check, okay?

1609
01:51:29.000 --> 01:51:36.000
We're not saying like, don't go in there and not be encouraging and don't not share something that you really just believe.

1610
01:51:36.000 --> 01:51:41.000
It's like Holy Spirit wants you to share with somebody, okay?

1611
01:51:41.000 --> 01:51:49.000
We just want to make sure that you're not just focusing on others, but you're also sharing your story too.

1612
01:51:49.000 --> 01:51:52.000
Does that make sense?

1613
01:51:52.000 --> 01:51:55.000
And I think, you know, with that testimony thing, I think you just even recognizing like,

1614
01:51:55.000 --> 01:52:01.000
not every testimony is going to resonate with you and that is okay.

1615
01:52:01.000 --> 01:52:06.000
But the fact that you recognize there are still some that do, that's okay.

1616
01:52:06.000 --> 01:52:11.000
Not everybody's testimony is going to, I mean, I don't get something from everybody's testimony either.

1617
01:52:11.000 --> 01:52:14.000
I mean, I can sit there and just celebrate what the Lord is doing.

1618
01:52:14.000 --> 01:52:17.000
Like, I just get excitement for celebrating what the Lord does, okay?

1619
01:52:17.000 --> 01:52:26.000
But just because I'm celebrating what the Lord is doing for somebody else doesn't mean it reveals something like deep and powerful in me, okay?

1620
01:52:26.000 --> 01:52:28.000
Like, that's okay.

1621
01:52:28.000 --> 01:52:36.000
I trust that when God wants to ignite something in me and He wants to do it through someone's testimony,

1622
01:52:36.000 --> 01:52:42.000
He's going to let that person's testimony come across my path, okay?

1623
01:52:42.000 --> 01:52:47.000
All right, ladies. Thanks for sticking with me for those extra 22 minutes.

1624
01:52:47.000 --> 01:52:52.000
Encourage the ladies on the app to watch this one in replay.

1625
01:52:52.000 --> 01:52:56.000
And then if you can't get to the one tonight, watch that one in replay as well.

1626
01:52:56.000 --> 01:52:59.000
All right, ladies. It's such an honor, such a pleasure.

1627
01:52:59.000 --> 01:53:03.000
And I'll just pray us out real quick, all right?

1628
01:53:03.000 --> 01:53:07.000
We'll do it really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really quick.

1629
01:53:07.000 --> 01:53:10.000
Heavenly Father, I just thank you. I thank you for this time together.

1630
01:53:10.000 --> 01:53:15.000
Lord, just continue to teach us, show us, heal us, and grow us, Lord.

1631
01:53:15.000 --> 01:53:22.000
You know, just continue to fill these women with encouragement when discouragement wants to try to write the end of the story, Lord.

1632
01:53:22.000 --> 01:53:28.000
But just remind us that you are the author, Father, and we can trust you and we thank you, Father.

1633
01:53:28.000 --> 01:53:32.000
And just, again, just, you know, just you are a blessing to us.

1634
01:53:32.000 --> 01:53:35.000
And every one of these women are a blessing to each other, Lord.

1635
01:53:35.000 --> 01:53:39.000
And so I just say thank you for that, and we give that over to you, Lord.

1636
01:53:39.000 --> 01:53:47.000
Let every blessing that comes from you be a reminder of your goodness and faithfulness

1637
01:53:47.000 --> 01:53:55.000
so that we can then go release it to others as well and give them the same hope and encouragement that you have given us.

1638
01:53:55.000 --> 01:53:59.000
In Jesus' mighty name, we pray that. Amen.

1639
01:53:59.000 --> 01:54:03.000
Ladies, have a wonderful Tuesday, and we'll see you next week.

1640
01:54:03.000 --> 01:54:05.000
Thanks, Kari.
