00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:23.000
Great.

2
00:00:23.000 --> 00:00:28.000
Hey, Elizabeth.

3
00:00:28.000 --> 00:00:33.000
No, I'm actually not. I'm grabbing some guacamole and tacos.

4
00:00:33.000 --> 00:00:34.000
Nice.

5
00:00:34.000 --> 00:00:41.000
I'm sorry. I meant to be done by now and turn into a later night, so I'm in line.

6
00:00:41.000 --> 00:00:43.000
No, that's fine. No worries.

7
00:00:43.000 --> 00:00:49.000
Yeah, it's like a mom and pop shop, so it's pretty easy.

8
00:00:49.000 --> 00:00:57.000
I was like, if I need to order real quick, I'm going to sit outside and listen because they have a nice patio that I can mute if I need to.

9
00:00:58.000 --> 00:00:59.000
Yeah, good.

10
00:00:59.000 --> 00:01:03.000
How are you doing tonight? Your first night?

11
00:01:03.000 --> 00:01:05.000
Yes, I'm so excited.

12
00:01:05.000 --> 00:01:09.000
Good. Well, I'm excited for everybody to get to meet you and get to meet everybody.

13
00:01:09.000 --> 00:01:14.000
Hey, Carrie, how you doing?

14
00:01:14.000 --> 00:01:20.000
I'm doing good. Hey, I am actually upstairs organizing my office right now.

15
00:01:20.000 --> 00:01:31.000
So if you wonder why it's like really weird lighting up here and I keep walking back and forth, that is why.

16
00:01:31.000 --> 00:01:37.000
Good. Well, I loved your post today. It was today. Yeah, it was today. It was very sweet.

17
00:01:37.000 --> 00:01:43.000
I'm glad to hear that you're doing better. I know it's hard. No one can do it for us. No one can.

18
00:01:43.000 --> 00:01:54.000
It's just something we have to walk through together. So I just try to be there in support and encourage and let them know, hey, look, seriously, it works in these situations.

19
00:01:54.000 --> 00:02:04.000
Yeah, the other ones, you know, when we're first starting, they're really nice, but it's like, no, no, it goes as far as we can take it.

20
00:02:05.000 --> 00:02:13.000
So anyway, so I was so excited that you and the Lord moved to a deeper level.

21
00:02:13.000 --> 00:02:21.000
It's like God just constantly, like I always say, just moves us into invites us into something that we think, oh, my word, Lord, this is such a nightmare.

22
00:02:21.000 --> 00:02:27.000
And God's like, no, no, no. I want you to know that even in this place, this is where your freedom is.

23
00:02:27.000 --> 00:02:41.000
And I want to prove it to you.

24
00:02:41.000 --> 00:02:51.000
My Internet kicked me out. Anyway, so I want to prove it to you so that you know this is, you know, you can have freedom to this extent.

25
00:02:52.000 --> 00:03:02.000
And I'm not living here. So yay. I've been just thinking about you and I'm like, not sounding good the past few weeks.

26
00:03:02.000 --> 00:03:09.000
It's ugly. So it was just, yeah, I had never experienced anything like that.

27
00:03:09.000 --> 00:03:16.000
Like as far as I just thought, you know, it's always holier to just surrender and like totally like not ever think about it again.

28
00:03:17.000 --> 00:03:26.000
You know what I mean? Like in that in the whole house situation specifically. And I mean, I still don't know why my piece is, is to keep believing God for now.

29
00:03:26.000 --> 00:03:35.000
I still don't understand it. All I know is that I feel like I'm back in that place of rest and that's all I care about.

30
00:03:36.000 --> 00:03:48.000
It was insane. Like this, this couple of weeks, I was like, it's only been two weeks of, of like this striving or like not the striving, but the struggle, like the intense struggle.

31
00:03:48.000 --> 00:03:56.000
I was like, how in the world did I live like this my whole life and not have like major health problems or something?

32
00:03:57.000 --> 00:04:11.000
I know, but, but you remember though, how you and I first met is, is I'm trying to remember, you know, we were on that call with, with Cheryl and you think about the health that you've had to already overcome.

33
00:04:11.000 --> 00:04:14.000
Three years ago, wasn't it? Was it about the cold?

34
00:04:14.000 --> 00:04:15.000
Oh wow, it was.

35
00:04:15.000 --> 00:04:17.000
Wasn't it like a really long time ago?

36
00:04:17.000 --> 00:04:18.000
Yes.

37
00:04:19.000 --> 00:04:27.000
It was with Cheryl and we were talking about like trying to come up with ideas about the colon cleanse, I think.

38
00:04:27.000 --> 00:04:45.000
Yes, exactly. And so you remember all of that colon cleanse, you know, the gut cleansing and all of that, that results from, that results from stress, anxiety, this feeling where we're out of control, we're constantly having to be vigilant.

39
00:04:46.000 --> 00:04:56.000
And usually issues with the gut stem from our living in constant fear and scanning the horizon for the threat.

40
00:04:56.000 --> 00:04:57.000
Hmm.

41
00:05:00.000 --> 00:05:02.680
That's what the gut health, gut issues come from.

42
00:05:02.960 --> 00:05:05.160
And so that's where my team runs.

43
00:05:05.160 --> 00:05:08.120
So when you were talking about, you're like, how did I live this whole life and

44
00:05:08.120 --> 00:05:10.880
not, and not have health issues you did.

45
00:05:12.000 --> 00:05:12.600
That was it.

46
00:05:14.240 --> 00:05:18.960
God gave us both tools through which we were able to, even before we learned

47
00:05:18.960 --> 00:05:24.360
about rest, because I, whoops, God, um, began to heal me from, from with the

48
00:05:24.360 --> 00:05:28.520
gut cleanse before I even learned about rest as well.

49
00:05:28.840 --> 00:05:33.880
And he gives us those tools in order to provide us a means by, in, in the, uh,

50
00:05:33.920 --> 00:05:40.000
in the realms in which we're choosing to operate, um, uh, ways in which to, um,

51
00:05:40.320 --> 00:05:43.560
to be, to, uh, be free in a way.

52
00:05:43.560 --> 00:05:45.920
Now we're not able to be free completely.

53
00:05:46.160 --> 00:05:52.680
And the fact that we're still living in fear and whatnot, but we can be, we can

54
00:05:52.680 --> 00:05:56.600
live in more relief from those symptoms and the manifestations, you know, that

55
00:05:56.600 --> 00:05:57.280
have resulted.

56
00:05:57.280 --> 00:06:01.480
So you did, it, it, it, it, it did.

57
00:06:01.480 --> 00:06:04.200
It did got, it got in there just like it did for me.

58
00:06:04.640 --> 00:06:06.040
But yeah, it's nice.

59
00:06:06.040 --> 00:06:06.360
Isn't it?

60
00:06:06.360 --> 00:06:10.000
Once we, uh, realized, oh my word, I don't have to live like this.

61
00:06:10.040 --> 00:06:17.560
I don't have to live with the, with we, uh, the things that, that, um, uh, that

62
00:06:17.560 --> 00:06:23.680
caused the manifestations that I was, um, eventually experiencing, like you're

63
00:06:23.680 --> 00:06:24.880
getting rid of the root.

64
00:06:25.400 --> 00:06:28.560
So anyway, yeah, yeah.

65
00:06:28.560 --> 00:06:33.200
So I'm still working on a lot of, of my gut cleansing from my, um, cause I'm

66
00:06:33.200 --> 00:06:34.760
about three quarters of the way through.

67
00:06:34.800 --> 00:06:40.760
Oh, interestingly, I do not know how long it took you, but for me, I did not start

68
00:06:40.760 --> 00:06:43.120
seeing results for literally 12 months.

69
00:06:44.800 --> 00:06:47.960
Why you know how you're supposed to see results?

70
00:06:48.160 --> 00:06:51.560
Well, I started seeing certain results, like in my skin and whatever, but you

71
00:06:51.560 --> 00:06:55.040
know how, what you're supposed to actually see, which I will save everyone.

72
00:06:58.280 --> 00:06:59.040
12 months.

73
00:06:59.520 --> 00:07:02.600
And it didn't finish for 18 months.

74
00:07:03.840 --> 00:07:07.920
So for six months, it was going, you know, from the 12 months to the eight,

75
00:07:07.920 --> 00:07:13.080
six F to the 18 months, it was, it was going through a process of like actually

76
00:07:13.080 --> 00:07:14.840
finally getting some results.

77
00:07:15.360 --> 00:07:22.720
Um, and then though I am about three quarters to four fifths cleanse, um, but

78
00:07:22.720 --> 00:07:24.800
I still have that last, that last bit.

79
00:07:24.800 --> 00:07:29.200
So, and I'm just asking the Lord, okay, Lord, now that I know about rest, I would

80
00:07:29.200 --> 00:07:33.840
like to be able to move into a greater measure of that rest of being able to,

81
00:07:33.880 --> 00:07:41.680
um, to heal and maintain the healing of my gut through no longer through, uh,

82
00:07:41.840 --> 00:07:47.560
healing the root cause of why, of why, uh, what was creating the issue in the

83
00:07:47.560 --> 00:07:52.920
first place, I feel like I'm in constant vigilance and then my, my gut, you know,

84
00:07:52.920 --> 00:08:01.000
as a response, anyway, but until, until then, I'm, I'm, I'm taking advantage of

85
00:08:01.000 --> 00:08:05.000
the bodily realm and using actual essential oil tools.

86
00:08:07.040 --> 00:08:10.120
Can you guys fill me in a little bit on what you're referring to?

87
00:08:10.280 --> 00:08:11.960
Like referring to the gut stuff.

88
00:08:12.000 --> 00:08:13.000
Can you fill me in a little bit?

89
00:08:14.920 --> 00:08:15.240
Yeah.

90
00:08:15.240 --> 00:08:21.040
So, um, uh, it was, uh, just where your microbiome gets off and, um, and it, and

91
00:08:21.040 --> 00:08:26.680
they say the majority of issues in the body stem from, from, uh, uh, bad gut

92
00:08:26.680 --> 00:08:31.320
health, like, I don't remember what percentage, which I'm totally familiar

93
00:08:31.320 --> 00:08:33.320
with gut, gut issues and health.

94
00:08:33.320 --> 00:08:35.960
I was just wondering about like the cleanse that you guys are referring

95
00:08:35.960 --> 00:08:38.000
to and like what, what you're, what you mean?

96
00:08:38.640 --> 00:08:43.679
And yeah, it's, it's a, it's a young living, uh, it's a young living cleanse.

97
00:08:43.679 --> 00:08:46.600
And so they have a trio of three things that you use.

98
00:08:46.960 --> 00:08:51.080
And, um, and so you can just go through, um, uh, go through all that.

99
00:08:51.120 --> 00:08:53.440
Uh, uh, Cheryl in here.

100
00:08:53.480 --> 00:08:58.640
Um, Cheryl Reese, Cheryl Flair and Carrie, um, Carrie here.

101
00:08:58.680 --> 00:09:00.480
Um, how do you pronounce your last name?

102
00:09:00.520 --> 00:09:01.280
Is it Beeler?

103
00:09:05.000 --> 00:09:05.240
Sorry.

104
00:09:05.960 --> 00:09:06.440
Beeler.

105
00:09:06.440 --> 00:09:09.960
I'm like, you're like talking and it's like not going anywhere.

106
00:09:10.160 --> 00:09:10.680
Beeler.

107
00:09:10.960 --> 00:09:11.560
Beeler.

108
00:09:11.600 --> 00:09:11.840
Okay.

109
00:09:11.840 --> 00:09:12.200
Sorry.

110
00:09:12.720 --> 00:09:15.600
So the three of them are on a young living team.

111
00:09:15.600 --> 00:09:18.720
And so you just contact any one of them and they can give you more

112
00:09:18.720 --> 00:09:20.480
information about that specifically.

113
00:09:20.920 --> 00:09:25.560
Um, but, uh, but yeah, so, you know, all of the stress, anxiety,

114
00:09:25.720 --> 00:09:28.920
vigilance, constantly feeling like you're living under threat.

115
00:09:29.280 --> 00:09:31.040
Our body will manifest that.

116
00:09:31.080 --> 00:09:34.480
And then, um, the gut is, you know, the, our, what did they call that?

117
00:09:34.480 --> 00:09:36.720
Our, I think they call it actually our first brain.

118
00:09:36.920 --> 00:09:40.960
They say that our, that our, the brain in our head actually gets its original.

119
00:09:41.360 --> 00:09:43.760
Um, it gets a lot of instruction, so to speak.

120
00:09:44.920 --> 00:09:49.400
So, um, it's really, really major, um, component of, um, of our health.

121
00:09:49.840 --> 00:09:55.280
And, um, one of the ways in which we manifest, uh, the, the, our state of

122
00:09:55.280 --> 00:09:57.160
unrest gets manifested into the gut.

123
00:09:57.200 --> 00:10:00.040
So, um, yeah.

124
00:10:00.000 --> 00:10:04.720
But so the young living stuff helps me and carry with that before we started

125
00:10:04.720 --> 00:10:08.240
learning about having to live before we started learning about the root cause

126
00:10:08.600 --> 00:10:10.440
of how it's manifesting in the body.

127
00:10:11.600 --> 00:10:12.000
Yeah.

128
00:10:13.200 --> 00:10:14.160
So interesting.

129
00:10:14.320 --> 00:10:15.120
Yeah, I'm totally with you.

130
00:10:15.120 --> 00:10:18.880
I'm very holistic minded, so done a lot of nutrition, but I have a lot of

131
00:10:18.880 --> 00:10:24.920
healing that I need and I actually hit this place of, um, yeah, having to

132
00:10:24.920 --> 00:10:30.840
almost let go of how intense I was focusing on like the nutritional side

133
00:10:30.840 --> 00:10:34.400
of gut healing to like deal with the emotional, spiritual stuff.

134
00:10:34.680 --> 00:10:34.880
Yeah.

135
00:10:35.040 --> 00:10:38.240
Um, not that it's separate, but just that, like, I was focused so much

136
00:10:38.240 --> 00:10:41.360
because I had a business with my ex-husband for nutrition and

137
00:10:41.360 --> 00:10:42.840
chiropractic and oils and all that.

138
00:10:42.840 --> 00:10:48.240
So it was like, we had all that, but the unrest and the stress and the

139
00:10:48.320 --> 00:10:52.280
lack of emotional, spiritual health was so detrimental that it was like, it

140
00:10:52.280 --> 00:10:55.640
was like, we're doing all, making all these efforts, spending all this money

141
00:10:55.640 --> 00:10:59.680
in this area, but so, but that doesn't mean that it's not really important

142
00:10:59.680 --> 00:11:00.880
and I need to pick it back up.

143
00:11:00.880 --> 00:11:03.160
It's just like, it feels like whack-a-mole sometimes.

144
00:11:04.640 --> 00:11:05.080
Yeah.

145
00:11:06.080 --> 00:11:07.000
Yeah, correct.

146
00:11:07.040 --> 00:11:11.800
It's, um, it's the, it's, uh, the secondary level.

147
00:11:12.080 --> 00:11:16.200
Um, when the root where if the root cause isn't healed, that the, the

148
00:11:16.200 --> 00:11:18.760
things are going to continue to manifest it.

149
00:11:18.760 --> 00:11:21.240
And so we're just, we're just managing symptoms.

150
00:11:21.600 --> 00:11:25.960
So managing symptoms is a gift from the Lord to be able to do, but it's

151
00:11:25.960 --> 00:11:27.280
not dealing with the root issues.

152
00:11:27.280 --> 00:11:30.280
So we continually are finding ourselves managing.

153
00:11:30.760 --> 00:11:36.200
That's what I'm doing with my guests is I'm managing it because in that area of

154
00:11:36.200 --> 00:11:40.600
my life, God's still having to move me into greater and greater measures of rest.

155
00:11:40.920 --> 00:11:46.720
So until then, God gives me the grace to be able to go where my faith is at.

156
00:11:46.760 --> 00:11:51.080
And my faith currently is at the place where I still need to go ahead

157
00:11:51.080 --> 00:11:52.320
and use some tools.

158
00:11:52.680 --> 00:11:53.960
So anyway, yeah.

159
00:11:54.320 --> 00:11:54.960
That's really good.

160
00:11:54.960 --> 00:11:55.520
Hey, Amy.

161
00:11:55.520 --> 00:11:56.280
How you doing?

162
00:11:56.880 --> 00:11:57.520
I'm good.

163
00:11:57.520 --> 00:11:58.760
I've been here for a while.

164
00:11:59.680 --> 00:12:00.280
I know.

165
00:12:00.280 --> 00:12:01.280
I'm sorry.

166
00:12:01.400 --> 00:12:03.280
We were in the middle of the conversation.

167
00:12:03.720 --> 00:12:04.480
That's okay.

168
00:12:04.480 --> 00:12:07.960
No, I didn't know you, you knew I had been here for a while.

169
00:12:07.960 --> 00:12:08.960
Yes, yes.

170
00:12:08.960 --> 00:12:10.480
I, yeah, I can, I can see you.

171
00:12:10.480 --> 00:12:13.080
So I have to pop in here and show you guys.

172
00:12:13.560 --> 00:12:17.680
I was, I was in the middle of a live tonight in my business and Eric comes

173
00:12:17.680 --> 00:12:21.440
up the stairs with these flowers, nearly melted me into a puddle.

174
00:12:21.440 --> 00:12:22.720
I just think they're so beautiful.

175
00:12:22.840 --> 00:12:24.480
So they're gorgeous.

176
00:12:25.720 --> 00:12:27.560
I need to take them downstairs before they die.

177
00:12:29.320 --> 00:12:29.800
Yeah.

178
00:12:32.480 --> 00:12:37.760
Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful summer bouquet with all of that, that red and

179
00:12:37.760 --> 00:12:42.520
the, and the sunflowers is a really, we live right in the heart of Amish country

180
00:12:42.560 --> 00:12:47.240
in Lancaster, and so there's all kinds of like produce stands and like all

181
00:12:47.240 --> 00:12:49.760
kinds of, you know, little red barns full of stuff.

182
00:12:49.760 --> 00:12:53.360
So he was over there this evening, got watermelon and produce and

183
00:12:53.560 --> 00:12:54.560
picked up a bouquet too.

184
00:12:54.560 --> 00:12:55.160
I guess so.

185
00:12:56.880 --> 00:13:01.240
And it's a very many, one of the many perks of living in Amish County is that

186
00:13:01.240 --> 00:13:07.720
there's so many farmers and so many produce stands and so nice, like literally

187
00:13:07.720 --> 00:13:08.960
just a couple of miles down the road.

188
00:13:09.560 --> 00:13:11.040
So much homegrown stuff.

189
00:13:11.400 --> 00:13:11.800
Yeah.

190
00:13:13.240 --> 00:13:13.600
Yeah.

191
00:13:13.600 --> 00:13:17.200
Which Amish County do you live in or like what, what Amish area do you live in?

192
00:13:17.280 --> 00:13:19.280
We live in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania.

193
00:13:20.080 --> 00:13:20.720
Okay.

194
00:13:20.840 --> 00:13:21.160
Wow.

195
00:13:21.160 --> 00:13:24.360
I live, well, my family's from an Amish town.

196
00:13:24.360 --> 00:13:27.800
They're not Amish, but they live for like the past 50 years.

197
00:13:27.800 --> 00:13:30.480
My grandparents have been in a small town in Illinois.

198
00:13:30.480 --> 00:13:32.440
That's a lot of Amish.

199
00:13:32.480 --> 00:13:32.720
So.

200
00:13:33.120 --> 00:13:33.440
Okay.

201
00:13:33.440 --> 00:13:33.640
Yeah.

202
00:13:33.640 --> 00:13:36.880
That's seriously, there's, there's a big like colony or whatever, kind of a

203
00:13:36.880 --> 00:13:39.600
settlement of Amish and Mennonite in Illinois too.

204
00:13:40.040 --> 00:13:40.360
Yeah.

205
00:13:42.160 --> 00:13:42.880
Those are beautiful.

206
00:13:42.920 --> 00:13:43.800
Hey Steph.

207
00:13:44.240 --> 00:13:45.600
I can't hear who's talking.

208
00:13:45.640 --> 00:13:47.160
I can't see who is talking.

209
00:13:47.800 --> 00:13:48.120
Yeah.

210
00:13:48.120 --> 00:13:49.080
She's off video.

211
00:13:49.080 --> 00:13:50.040
That's Lisbeth.

212
00:13:50.200 --> 00:13:51.560
She's new.

213
00:13:51.560 --> 00:13:54.720
And so this is her first night being able to jump on.

214
00:13:54.720 --> 00:13:58.840
She was, I think she was on vacation or basically last, last week.

215
00:13:58.840 --> 00:14:01.120
So this is her first week getting to jump on.

216
00:14:02.720 --> 00:14:03.160
Okay.

217
00:14:03.760 --> 00:14:04.120
Hey guys.

218
00:14:04.120 --> 00:14:04.920
There she is.

219
00:14:08.120 --> 00:14:11.280
She's making us jealous because she's eating guacamole and tacos.

220
00:14:12.080 --> 00:14:15.200
The guacamole, you guys eat it all day, every day.

221
00:14:16.200 --> 00:14:18.480
I'm so good.

222
00:14:21.040 --> 00:14:21.360
Yeah.

223
00:14:21.640 --> 00:14:24.880
So does, it's good to see everybody.

224
00:14:24.880 --> 00:14:28.560
I'm glad so many of y'all were able to jump on and I was excited that it, that

225
00:14:28.560 --> 00:14:30.600
Lisbeth could jump on so that y'all could get to meet her.

226
00:14:30.600 --> 00:14:31.680
She's so much fun.

227
00:14:31.680 --> 00:14:32.680
I just love her spirit.

228
00:14:33.320 --> 00:14:39.960
Does anyone have any questions or anything that they wanted to bring up?

229
00:14:40.600 --> 00:14:44.280
Anything that they've been thinking about that the Lord's just kind of been

230
00:14:44.280 --> 00:14:46.760
working, uh, been through.

231
00:14:48.000 --> 00:14:49.200
I'm just going to jump right in here.

232
00:14:49.200 --> 00:14:51.880
Cause I thought about this right when we were talking about the whole house stuff.

233
00:14:52.480 --> 00:14:59.960
Um, but I was wondering, um, about Eric when, like, for instance, when.

234
00:15:00.000 --> 00:15:02.000
Children are born sick

235
00:15:02.840 --> 00:15:04.520
like how do you

236
00:15:04.520 --> 00:15:06.200
How do you go about?

237
00:15:06.200 --> 00:15:12.320
Like are there rude things in him that like transferred probably transferred through me during pregnancy

238
00:15:13.240 --> 00:15:15.240
But how do you go about?

239
00:15:15.740 --> 00:15:17.740
finding healing

240
00:15:18.000 --> 00:15:22.040
For situations like that when it's an infant or he's like two years old

241
00:15:22.200 --> 00:15:27.140
So I don't think he's operating in high stress or you know a place of unrest

242
00:15:27.140 --> 00:15:32.540
I mean, you know, he's very innocent in other words, you know what I mean? Just do does my question make sense?

243
00:15:33.660 --> 00:15:41.980
So I think I understand what you're saying, but I don't understand the question. So we were asking what specifically I was asking

244
00:15:41.980 --> 00:15:43.980
how you would

245
00:15:44.620 --> 00:15:48.100
Go about getting to the root cause of his health issues

246
00:15:49.060 --> 00:15:53.900
Because I know for us. Yeah for us. He's got like food allergies and

247
00:15:54.380 --> 00:15:58.780
All kinds of stuff he was basically born with like an extremely bad egg allergy and

248
00:16:00.100 --> 00:16:04.300
So for us is like for me as a human like I know that my health problems

249
00:16:04.300 --> 00:16:07.160
They probably took years and years and years to you know

250
00:16:08.140 --> 00:16:10.860
Manifest or whatever from stress and all that stuff

251
00:16:10.980 --> 00:16:15.560
But then when there's just a baby born into the world that hasn't had time to accumulate all that

252
00:16:15.900 --> 00:16:22.140
How do you do you just treat it? Like right now we're just treating it naturally and it's taking a really really long time

253
00:16:22.660 --> 00:16:27.020
So, I just don't know like are there things I could be doing spiritually like

254
00:16:27.900 --> 00:16:33.460
Speaking over him. I mean, I don't know. I just I would like to know your opinion on that. Does that make sense?

255
00:16:34.140 --> 00:16:36.140
So basically, how can I help him heal?

256
00:16:37.060 --> 00:16:38.180
spiritually

257
00:16:38.180 --> 00:16:40.220
If there is a lack there spiritually

258
00:16:41.540 --> 00:16:48.580
Yeah, no, no, you're writing because all sickness that the ultimate root is spiritual. So he's received

259
00:16:49.580 --> 00:16:54.860
Records from like that through you and through your husband

260
00:16:55.180 --> 00:17:00.620
Because of the records that you've inherited from your parents or your grandparents and things that they didn't overcome

261
00:17:01.220 --> 00:17:05.180
That got transferred down whether or not they actually manifested in their life

262
00:17:05.180 --> 00:17:11.060
you know a lot of times their records came from like their previous generation something that they didn't deal with and and

263
00:17:11.619 --> 00:17:17.940
Conquer for lack of a better phrase before it was transferred in the DNA to subsequent generations

264
00:17:17.940 --> 00:17:22.140
So it's just something that is just worn into the generational line

265
00:17:22.140 --> 00:17:27.140
And and there are ways to that obviously every generation including, you know

266
00:17:27.140 --> 00:17:34.140
You're see including Eric can overcome it and one of the things that we can do as parents is we can speak over them

267
00:17:34.140 --> 00:17:37.540
We have a specific measure of authority that we can take

268
00:17:38.140 --> 00:17:39.340
over

269
00:17:39.340 --> 00:17:44.860
over our children over those that that are under our protection and

270
00:17:45.700 --> 00:17:46.780
And

271
00:17:46.780 --> 00:17:49.860
and you can you can you can you I

272
00:17:50.580 --> 00:17:55.380
You can speak over him and instead of you can pray for him

273
00:17:55.380 --> 00:18:00.220
Obviously, you can ask the Lord to reveal things to you, etc

274
00:18:00.220 --> 00:18:01.860
So that's not a problem

275
00:18:01.860 --> 00:18:09.140
But in addition to that very powerfully we can command things we can declare things

276
00:18:09.140 --> 00:18:14.660
We can declare over him what things are actually true about his body because in his spirit

277
00:18:14.660 --> 00:18:20.260
He's perfect in spirit. He's one with God. He's fully righteous. He's fully healed

278
00:18:20.420 --> 00:18:24.460
So it's speaking over him and not just verbally

279
00:18:24.900 --> 00:18:31.660
But internally and with intention that such-and-such is true about his body. So I do that with people

280
00:18:33.020 --> 00:18:39.900
that don't even know that I am necessarily that I'm praying for them because or

281
00:18:40.260 --> 00:18:43.940
Or thinking and remembering their illness, etc

282
00:18:44.260 --> 00:18:49.100
Because I don't even have to speak to someone directly. I just

283
00:18:49.820 --> 00:18:53.740
Intentionally speak to that. I mean meaning like with them present in the room

284
00:18:53.740 --> 00:18:58.460
I just send out an intention, you know with my spirit that hey

285
00:18:58.740 --> 00:19:03.500
You know and I and I address their spirit and I'll say okay or their soul or their body

286
00:19:03.500 --> 00:19:06.940
I've done all three and and just say okay

287
00:19:06.940 --> 00:19:12.820
This is who you are and I'm declaring this and standing in my place as the Son of God and I'm declaring that this is

288
00:19:12.820 --> 00:19:19.860
Who you are and this is who your spirit is and I'm giving you instruction to manifest that I'm telling you

289
00:19:19.860 --> 00:19:24.020
You know kind of like how I how I recommend that we talk to our own soul in our own spirit

290
00:19:24.020 --> 00:19:26.020
Hey, there's no reason for us to be afraid

291
00:19:26.660 --> 00:19:28.020
and then

292
00:19:28.020 --> 00:19:34.100
there's no reason there so in invite allow the spirit to come in and to

293
00:19:34.260 --> 00:19:39.060
To heal the trauma or whatever we can do that over people as over other people as well

294
00:19:39.060 --> 00:19:44.260
We can talk to their soul and we can talk to their body whether or not they're present with this in the room or whether

295
00:19:44.260 --> 00:19:45.380
We're talking to them on zoom

296
00:19:45.380 --> 00:19:47.620
I mean like I could be lying in bed at night and

297
00:19:47.940 --> 00:19:56.860
Sometimes I'll start talking to someone's body or start talking to someone's soul because it's all intention in this spirit. Anyway, we're not limited by the physical

298
00:19:56.860 --> 00:19:59.980
So I just wanted to mention that you don't have to always say things

299
00:20:00.000 --> 00:20:04.320
out loud. Of course, that is wonderful. And it's a leverage for our soul to help us,

300
00:20:05.200 --> 00:20:13.680
to help us kind of like sink our teeth into the fact that yes, I am believing this. Yes,

301
00:20:13.680 --> 00:20:18.240
I am declaring this and I'm declaring it over his body. I'm telling his body, I'm giving it

302
00:20:18.240 --> 00:20:23.280
instruction. If he is not old enough to give an instruction himself, I'm doing so. And I'm

303
00:20:23.280 --> 00:20:30.800
reminding his body, Hey, look, this is who you are. So manifest it. You have not only permission,

304
00:20:30.800 --> 00:20:37.520
you have command to manifest the truth and to no longer manifest a lie, no longer manifest

305
00:20:37.520 --> 00:20:42.560
what actually isn't true about you, et cetera. So yeah, you can absolutely declare those things

306
00:20:44.320 --> 00:20:50.480
from the standpoint that he already is healed. Not that he will be healed because that's

307
00:20:50.480 --> 00:20:56.080
acknowledging the fact that, Oh, you're not someplace where you should be. But instead,

308
00:20:56.720 --> 00:21:02.480
actually always addressing it in, in present terms that no, this is who you already are.

309
00:21:03.680 --> 00:21:08.240
Um, uh, so does that answer your question or did you have an extended?

310
00:21:08.240 --> 00:21:11.280
Yeah, that makes, that makes a lot of sense. Cause I felt in the past,

311
00:21:11.920 --> 00:21:15.920
certain times, like when he's got a hold of food, he's allergic to like, it makes me freak out and

312
00:21:15.920 --> 00:21:20.320
be like all panicky. I'm like, don't eat that. You're going to get sick. And I've been thinking

313
00:21:20.320 --> 00:21:28.960
about it recently. I'm like, how much of me being an anxious mom and holding on to the fact that he

314
00:21:28.960 --> 00:21:37.200
has that allergy is still limiting him in his healing journey. So, um, I mean the whole thought

315
00:21:37.200 --> 00:21:41.200
of like the whole thought of that is completely foreign to me. Cause I've never, I've never

316
00:21:41.200 --> 00:21:46.240
thought about like, you know, his spirit isn't sick. Like who he is in God is perfectly,

317
00:21:46.240 --> 00:21:52.240
it's perfectly normal and healthy. Um, but yeah, that totally answers my question. It's very helpful.

318
00:21:54.480 --> 00:22:00.480
Yeah. Good, good. But yeah. Yeah. Just knowing who it is that he is and being able to declare that

319
00:22:00.480 --> 00:22:06.320
and nothing wrong with using anything natural, you know, nothing wrong with doing, um, you know,

320
00:22:07.040 --> 00:22:12.880
using the essential oils and, and steering clear of the things that, that he's reacted to in the

321
00:22:12.880 --> 00:22:18.720
past. But, but yeah, there's no reason that even if he gets a hold of anything, there's no reason

322
00:22:18.720 --> 00:22:26.320
to bring fear into the equation. Meaning like fear is only, only stems from a lie. So addressing the

323
00:22:26.320 --> 00:22:32.560
fact he's just eaten something and, and going through maybe going through the normal steps of,

324
00:22:32.560 --> 00:22:38.720
okay, this is what we do, but removing the fear out of the equation will reduce the power

325
00:22:39.360 --> 00:22:46.720
of that allergy and all of that, that, um, is against him because the, because that, because

326
00:22:46.720 --> 00:22:54.160
you as the higher, so to speak, you as a very, um, as a very powerful authority in the situation

327
00:22:54.160 --> 00:23:01.120
has the authority to reduce the amount of fear that is, um, uh, instead of feeding the fear of

328
00:23:01.120 --> 00:23:07.280
this, of the, of the environment. Sorry. Uh, I think that I, I think that I kind of went through

329
00:23:07.280 --> 00:23:19.440
the back door there, but hopefully that made sense. So yeah. So did anyone else have something?

330
00:23:21.120 --> 00:23:27.120
I do. Um, am I muted? Yeah, you're unmuted. Yeah, you're good. I can hear you.

331
00:23:28.080 --> 00:23:34.320
Um, I was going to ask you about free will. I hear people talk about free will all the time

332
00:23:35.200 --> 00:23:43.040
and, um, how do you reconcile that with the sovereignty of God and, um,

333
00:23:44.560 --> 00:23:50.960
you know, and then you've said you're exactly where you're supposed to be. So that sounds like

334
00:23:51.520 --> 00:23:58.560
no matter what I do, I'm where I'm supposed to be. So, I mean, I just can't reconcile all that.

335
00:23:58.560 --> 00:24:06.000
If God is sovereign, then how much free will do I have? And do I have free will? And as Paul says,

336
00:24:06.000 --> 00:24:11.520
we're a slave to righteousness or a slave to sin. So that doesn't sound like free will. Um,

337
00:24:11.840 --> 00:24:25.520
so, and then, and then also, um, um, oh, what was the other thing? Um, anyway, but basically that,

338
00:24:25.520 --> 00:24:39.840
that, um, yeah, so I feel like looking at my past and seeing times where I made a choice that, um,

339
00:24:42.480 --> 00:24:48.000
it's almost like here that, like, I can look back and see that we make choices based out of

340
00:24:48.000 --> 00:24:58.000
where we are and, um, based out of our brokenness. And it's actually a path to our healing because,

341
00:24:59.120 --> 00:25:00.000
um,

342
00:25:00.000 --> 00:25:04.500
the brokenness is manifesting in the decision.

343
00:25:04.500 --> 00:25:07.780
So it's showing us the result of our brokenness.

344
00:25:07.780 --> 00:25:09.120
Does that make any sense?

345
00:25:09.120 --> 00:25:12.060
Like the things we choose are coming out

346
00:25:12.060 --> 00:25:13.580
of the broken places in us.

347
00:25:13.580 --> 00:25:17.100
And so, or the, you know, unhealthy choices

348
00:25:17.100 --> 00:25:18.420
or maybe looking back saying,

349
00:25:18.420 --> 00:25:19.980
oh, I wish I hadn't done that.

350
00:25:19.980 --> 00:25:22.180
So, I don't know.

351
00:25:22.180 --> 00:25:25.060
I just feel like, I don't,

352
00:25:25.060 --> 00:25:29.620
I'd like to hear your explanation of free will

353
00:25:29.620 --> 00:25:33.140
and how it reconciles with the sovereignty of God

354
00:25:33.140 --> 00:25:35.300
and examples from the Bible.

355
00:25:36.460 --> 00:25:38.100
So when you talk,

356
00:25:38.100 --> 00:25:40.860
how do you define the sovereignty of God?

357
00:25:40.860 --> 00:25:42.240
That'll help me.

358
00:25:42.240 --> 00:25:44.140
Well, that he's sovereign.

359
00:25:44.140 --> 00:25:47.200
His will prevails, you know,

360
00:25:47.200 --> 00:25:49.080
just like you've said, if he says something,

361
00:25:49.080 --> 00:25:51.440
then he's gonna do it.

362
00:25:51.440 --> 00:25:55.340
And so where do we come in in all that?

363
00:25:55.340 --> 00:25:56.960
I mean, you look at,

364
00:25:56.960 --> 00:25:58.760
I don't think that anything has that,

365
00:25:58.820 --> 00:26:01.060
like Adam and Eve eating from the tree.

366
00:26:01.060 --> 00:26:02.580
Like God didn't go, oh darn,

367
00:26:02.580 --> 00:26:03.900
I didn't see that coming.

368
00:26:03.900 --> 00:26:08.700
You know, it's like actually was probably part

369
00:26:08.700 --> 00:26:11.060
of his plan A, you know, I don't know.

370
00:26:11.060 --> 00:26:15.460
I don't know for sure, but yeah.

371
00:26:15.460 --> 00:26:20.020
So I just, you know, God is sovereign.

372
00:26:20.020 --> 00:26:20.840
I don't know.

373
00:26:20.840 --> 00:26:22.580
I'd like to hear you speak on this,

374
00:26:22.580 --> 00:26:24.380
how the sovereignty of God,

375
00:26:24.380 --> 00:26:27.140
what your explanation is of the sovereignty of God

376
00:26:27.160 --> 00:26:29.760
and how that reconciles with man's free will.

377
00:26:31.600 --> 00:26:35.840
So the, yes, God is sovereign.

378
00:26:35.840 --> 00:26:38.160
However, he does not,

379
00:26:38.160 --> 00:26:41.400
he doesn't violate our free will.

380
00:26:41.400 --> 00:26:45.960
And he invites us to bring ourselves to the table.

381
00:26:45.960 --> 00:26:49.360
So because it's part of relationship,

382
00:26:49.360 --> 00:26:54.160
there's relationship isn't relationship unless it's,

383
00:26:55.140 --> 00:26:58.260
unless, you know, both parties are,

384
00:26:59.780 --> 00:27:02.060
are, you know, bringing themselves to the table.

385
00:27:02.060 --> 00:27:03.940
I know I keep saying that.

386
00:27:03.940 --> 00:27:06.740
So he won't violate it.

387
00:27:06.740 --> 00:27:11.340
And yet that's because he's chosen that relationship

388
00:27:11.340 --> 00:27:13.660
is that important to him.

389
00:27:13.660 --> 00:27:15.900
But as far as, you know, the fact that,

390
00:27:15.900 --> 00:27:19.100
yeah, God's will is done

391
00:27:19.100 --> 00:27:22.060
when he's declared something, et cetera.

392
00:27:22.060 --> 00:27:26.040
But what he's doing is he's fathering us.

393
00:27:26.040 --> 00:27:27.920
And we're young, we're young in the faith,

394
00:27:27.920 --> 00:27:29.480
you know, as we start out.

395
00:27:29.480 --> 00:27:33.160
And then he fathers us into co-laboring with him

396
00:27:33.160 --> 00:27:35.240
in co-making a decision.

397
00:27:35.240 --> 00:27:38.640
It kind of like, I mean, kind of like a child

398
00:27:38.640 --> 00:27:40.280
when a child is very, very young,

399
00:27:40.280 --> 00:27:42.880
like even think a baby, a baby.

400
00:27:42.880 --> 00:27:46.920
So whose will prevails ultimately?

401
00:27:46.920 --> 00:27:48.200
The parents.

402
00:27:48.220 --> 00:27:53.220
And yet we can't violate a baby's free will

403
00:27:53.220 --> 00:27:56.020
unless we're starting to get into witchcraft

404
00:27:56.020 --> 00:27:59.480
or manipulation or abuse, et cetera.

405
00:27:59.480 --> 00:28:03.260
And so it's kind of like that.

406
00:28:03.260 --> 00:28:05.820
However, as the baby gets older,

407
00:28:05.820 --> 00:28:08.020
well then we desire to have

408
00:28:08.020 --> 00:28:10.940
a more intimate relationship with him.

409
00:28:10.940 --> 00:28:15.080
We're fathering the baby into as they get older

410
00:28:15.080 --> 00:28:19.680
to know how to make their own decisions,

411
00:28:19.680 --> 00:28:23.060
how to execute on their free will,

412
00:28:23.060 --> 00:28:28.060
how to foster that free will into something beneficial

413
00:28:28.640 --> 00:28:31.840
that's not destructive to themselves or to other people.

414
00:28:31.840 --> 00:28:33.120
And then as they do that,

415
00:28:33.120 --> 00:28:36.960
we have more and more special relationship

416
00:28:36.960 --> 00:28:38.560
and an intimacy of relationship

417
00:28:38.560 --> 00:28:40.680
that's developed with that being

418
00:28:40.680 --> 00:28:42.680
than we had when it was a baby.

419
00:28:42.680 --> 00:28:43.520
Why?

420
00:28:43.520 --> 00:28:45.280
Because as it's older,

421
00:28:45.280 --> 00:28:48.640
it can bring more and more of itself to the table

422
00:28:48.640 --> 00:28:53.080
because it's been fathered into how to handle itself,

423
00:28:53.080 --> 00:28:56.600
to know who it is, to be able to eventually

424
00:28:56.600 --> 00:28:58.080
when they are an adult,

425
00:28:58.080 --> 00:29:00.120
just like their parent is an adult,

426
00:29:00.120 --> 00:29:03.080
that they're on an even playing field.

427
00:29:03.080 --> 00:29:07.840
And so the other person's will isn't being violated

428
00:29:07.840 --> 00:29:11.080
unless they want to violate the relationship

429
00:29:11.080 --> 00:29:13.600
because relationship is a two-way street.

430
00:29:13.600 --> 00:29:18.600
And yet, going back to the Lord,

431
00:29:18.640 --> 00:29:20.080
yeah, God is always sovereign,

432
00:29:20.080 --> 00:29:21.720
but he doesn't use his sovereignty

433
00:29:21.720 --> 00:29:26.720
in order to violate our free will.

434
00:29:27.120 --> 00:29:30.800
And yeah, that's the simplest way I can think of

435
00:29:30.800 --> 00:29:32.920
to describe it and to explain it.

436
00:29:32.920 --> 00:29:35.800
Is there something that you're thinking of particularly

437
00:29:35.800 --> 00:29:39.880
that just kind of bothers you?

438
00:29:39.880 --> 00:29:41.560
Like you were talking about the fact of,

439
00:29:41.560 --> 00:29:43.400
oh, well, if I look in the past,

440
00:29:43.400 --> 00:29:44.960
so it sounded like maybe,

441
00:29:44.960 --> 00:29:46.440
and then you were talking about brokenness,

442
00:29:46.440 --> 00:29:47.840
like, oh, well,

443
00:29:47.840 --> 00:29:50.720
and so I was wondering what your concern was

444
00:29:50.720 --> 00:29:52.120
in looking at the past.

445
00:29:52.120 --> 00:29:53.360
Were you thinking, oh my goodness,

446
00:29:53.360 --> 00:29:54.880
I had all of this brokenness.

447
00:29:56.160 --> 00:29:59.840
Should I bear the responsibility of what it is that I did?

448
00:30:00.000 --> 00:30:06.400
Or it was that God kind of like a similar to a Calvinistic fatalistic approach of,

449
00:30:06.400 --> 00:30:10.240
well, you know, this is just kind of the way that it was.

450
00:30:10.240 --> 00:30:12.680
And I didn't have any, any say in it.

451
00:30:12.680 --> 00:30:15.120
I was just kind of wondering where you were coming from.

452
00:30:15.120 --> 00:30:16.880
No, it wasn't that at all.

453
00:30:16.880 --> 00:30:21.000
Just using the past as an example.

454
00:30:21.000 --> 00:30:26.480
My, so are you, so you're saying,

455
00:30:26.960 --> 00:30:30.160
so we wouldn't even come to the Lord except he draws us.

456
00:30:30.160 --> 00:30:35.160
So everything starts with God.

457
00:30:36.080 --> 00:30:40.560
And so we're in the equation, like, yeah,

458
00:30:40.560 --> 00:30:45.240
after you have surrendered your life to the Lord,

459
00:30:45.240 --> 00:30:49.360
if you do that, like, see, I didn't even do that.

460
00:30:49.360 --> 00:30:51.640
The Lord just overwhelmed me.

461
00:30:51.640 --> 00:30:56.240
So it's really hard for me to understand.

462
00:30:56.240 --> 00:30:59.280
People say they surrendered to the Lord.

463
00:30:59.280 --> 00:31:02.800
In my case, that was like saying I surrendered to a tidal wave.

464
00:31:02.800 --> 00:31:05.400
Literally, I didn't have any choice.

465
00:31:05.400 --> 00:31:08.680
And I'm glad I don't, I'm not like, oh God, you violated my will.

466
00:31:08.680 --> 00:31:14.480
I mean, I was seeking him, but it was only because he was drawing me.

467
00:31:14.480 --> 00:31:21.320
And so, but you still chose, you still chose the tidal wave.

468
00:31:21.320 --> 00:31:23.720
Some people don't choose the tidal wave.

469
00:31:23.720 --> 00:31:27.280
So you don't see how you did it.

470
00:31:27.280 --> 00:31:29.720
I'm not using that example lightly.

471
00:31:29.720 --> 00:31:33.840
I didn't choose anything.

472
00:31:33.840 --> 00:31:41.760
I might've chosen to respond to him wooing me in that I was seeking him,

473
00:31:41.760 --> 00:31:43.720
but that was only because he was drawing me.

474
00:31:43.720 --> 00:31:45.400
That's what Jesus said.

475
00:31:45.400 --> 00:31:49.440
So none of my salvation, I didn't bring anything to the table.

476
00:31:49.440 --> 00:31:51.200
I don't believe we choose God.

477
00:31:51.200 --> 00:31:52.600
We can't choose God.

478
00:31:52.600 --> 00:31:54.880
If we're fallen, how do we choose God?

479
00:31:54.880 --> 00:31:56.200
We don't, we can't.

480
00:31:56.200 --> 00:31:58.200
So he has to draw us.

481
00:31:58.200 --> 00:31:59.320
And so it's all him.

482
00:31:59.320 --> 00:32:01.120
He initiates all of it.

483
00:32:01.120 --> 00:32:05.200
So, I mean, that's just, I, that has been my experience,

484
00:32:05.200 --> 00:32:07.960
and that's my understanding of what the scripture says.

485
00:32:07.960 --> 00:32:11.320
So I just, I'm just trying to see free will.

486
00:32:11.320 --> 00:32:19.200
I mean, I don't know where, I don't think that that plays into salvation.

487
00:32:19.240 --> 00:32:23.400
I don't think anyone who encounters the love of God can refuse it,

488
00:32:23.400 --> 00:32:26.480
but I'm not really talking about salvation.

489
00:32:26.480 --> 00:32:28.920
I'm just trying to understand, you know,

490
00:32:28.920 --> 00:32:32.000
what you're saying about free will is all in context of sonship.

491
00:32:32.000 --> 00:32:33.280
So I'm already a son.

492
00:32:33.280 --> 00:32:36.000
So I choose whether or not to co-labor with God.

493
00:32:36.000 --> 00:32:40.440
So is that the extent of free will that when you say free will,

494
00:32:40.440 --> 00:32:44.800
what you're talking about?

495
00:32:44.800 --> 00:32:50.600
So free will is strictly in relationship to co-laboring with God?

496
00:32:50.600 --> 00:32:52.200
Right.

497
00:32:52.200 --> 00:32:54.920
And decision making, that kind of stuff.

498
00:32:54.920 --> 00:32:55.480
Yeah.

499
00:32:55.480 --> 00:33:01.720
So I was actually extending it beyond what I,

500
00:33:01.720 --> 00:33:06.000
it sounds like you take free will.

501
00:33:06.000 --> 00:33:10.920
So I was extending it across everything, including salvation.

502
00:33:10.920 --> 00:33:16.520
Now, yes, there is a very interesting component in the fact that,

503
00:33:16.520 --> 00:33:21.440
so in other words, my point is that you and I might see it a bit differently,

504
00:33:21.440 --> 00:33:23.000
which is perfectly fine.

505
00:33:23.000 --> 00:33:26.520
I was just letting you know you were asking, you know, what I was addressing.

506
00:33:26.520 --> 00:33:28.600
I'm literally addressing the whole thing,

507
00:33:28.600 --> 00:33:31.960
which sounds like it might be more extensive than the way that you see it.

508
00:33:31.960 --> 00:33:37.200
So, but yes, there is a sovereignty of God and God does initiate everything,

509
00:33:37.200 --> 00:33:39.840
which is really, really sweet and really special.

510
00:33:39.840 --> 00:33:44.640
So he initiates everything and then we choose whether or not we want to respond to it.

511
00:33:44.640 --> 00:33:51.200
Now, eventually it can get to the point where we all choose to what level that we're

512
00:33:51.200 --> 00:33:57.720
going, that we're willing to hold out before we choose him in response.

513
00:33:57.720 --> 00:33:58.920
That's what I mean by choose him.

514
00:33:58.920 --> 00:34:00.080
I don't mean we initiate.

515
00:34:00.080 --> 00:34:04.040
I mean that, I mean that we respond because that's a choice.

516
00:34:04.040 --> 00:34:07.960
So he may, he chose us and then we decide whether or not we choose him.

517
00:34:07.960 --> 00:34:09.600
It's not that we're choosing him first.

518
00:34:09.600 --> 00:34:15.120
So you choose him back and it depends on how far, and everyone's different.

519
00:34:15.120 --> 00:34:19.159
So some people, he might pursue him this much and they immediately choose him.

520
00:34:19.159 --> 00:34:22.960
Other people, he goes this far and they still resist and they still resist and they still,

521
00:34:22.960 --> 00:34:26.159
and then finally, you know, then they respond.

522
00:34:26.159 --> 00:34:30.159
And so my personal belief is that it's kind of like that,

523
00:34:30.159 --> 00:34:33.239
that's the whole sovereignty where it sometimes gets a little confusing.

524
00:34:33.239 --> 00:34:38.960
I believe that he can, in a way, win in the end without going into all the details

525
00:34:38.960 --> 00:34:41.280
of why I believe that the win in the end.

526
00:34:41.280 --> 00:34:44.719
So in other words, his sovereignty and his, and his will,

527
00:34:44.719 --> 00:34:51.440
and the fact that he's decided how it's going to be and we can't help but respond is true.

528
00:34:51.440 --> 00:35:00.000
But I believe that there is, the choice comes as far as like how quickly we choose him.

529
00:35:00.000 --> 00:35:08.000
Like, is it pretty soon or do we hold out really hard and far against him?

530
00:35:08.000 --> 00:35:09.720
Some people, because they say,

531
00:35:09.720 --> 00:35:11.240
and this is what I personally believe,

532
00:35:11.240 --> 00:35:13.080
I don't know this 100 percent for sure,

533
00:35:13.080 --> 00:35:16.600
but this is what I personally believe based off of stories that I've heard,

534
00:35:16.600 --> 00:35:21.440
that talk about whether or not,

535
00:35:21.440 --> 00:35:24.520
talk about free will all the way going to the end of life,

536
00:35:24.520 --> 00:35:27.600
that people choose that are given.

537
00:35:27.600 --> 00:35:31.440
I believe that Jesus presents himself to everybody right before they die,

538
00:35:31.440 --> 00:35:36.440
if they haven't chosen him yet and they have the opportunity to choose him.

539
00:35:36.440 --> 00:35:40.800
I've talked to a variety of people that believe that to varying degrees.

540
00:35:40.800 --> 00:35:45.880
But the point is that there are some people that still reject him at that point.

541
00:35:45.880 --> 00:35:47.520
God says that even in the Bible,

542
00:35:47.520 --> 00:35:48.680
even in Revelation,

543
00:35:48.680 --> 00:35:50.520
he says that when people present,

544
00:35:50.520 --> 00:35:52.120
they're presented with everything.

545
00:35:52.120 --> 00:35:55.320
I mean, it's like they're face-to-face with Jesus.

546
00:35:55.320 --> 00:35:58.000
Jesus is like, hey, will you accept me?

547
00:35:58.000 --> 00:36:02.240
They're like, no. Then they go off and they rebel,

548
00:36:02.240 --> 00:36:04.720
and they rebel against the city of Zion,

549
00:36:04.720 --> 00:36:06.960
they rebel against the people of the Lord,

550
00:36:06.960 --> 00:36:12.520
and they still absolutely refuse in the face of it.

551
00:36:12.520 --> 00:36:15.480
There's a choice in that.

552
00:36:15.480 --> 00:36:19.320
Then in the between time is the co-laboring with God.

553
00:36:19.320 --> 00:36:24.920
Regardless, it's always an aspect of something that we're choosing in our relationship with him,

554
00:36:24.920 --> 00:36:27.200
whether we're choosing to partner with him period,

555
00:36:27.200 --> 00:36:35.640
or we're already in partnership with him and we are deciding about how to make a decision.

556
00:36:35.640 --> 00:36:37.440
Should I buy a house?

557
00:36:37.440 --> 00:36:40.960
Should I get into such and such a relationship?

558
00:36:41.320 --> 00:36:43.480
Should I have children?

559
00:36:43.480 --> 00:36:45.160
What should I name my child?

560
00:36:45.160 --> 00:36:47.360
Should I start using essential oils?

561
00:36:47.360 --> 00:36:49.160
Should I not use essential oils?

562
00:36:49.160 --> 00:36:51.840
Should I start a coffee shop?

563
00:36:52.280 --> 00:36:56.080
It's all God desires,

564
00:36:56.080 --> 00:36:59.160
the type of relationship with him in which we are co-laboring,

565
00:36:59.160 --> 00:37:02.320
and we can bring ourselves to the table or not.

566
00:37:02.320 --> 00:37:05.520
We can just say, well, I'm just a servant, Lord, whatever you want.

567
00:37:05.520 --> 00:37:08.600
God's like, okay, I'll tell you what I want.

568
00:37:08.600 --> 00:37:11.800
But what I would really like is this whole relationship where

569
00:37:11.800 --> 00:37:16.000
you're mentioning what it is that you would like,

570
00:37:16.000 --> 00:37:18.240
where you're bringing your desires,

571
00:37:18.240 --> 00:37:21.440
and he gives us that opportunity.

572
00:37:21.480 --> 00:37:27.520
I spent the majority of my life not even telling him what it is that I wanted.

573
00:37:28.400 --> 00:37:32.080
I just thought, well, it's the sovereignty of God prevails.

574
00:37:32.080 --> 00:37:33.800
What I want, I'm a worm.

575
00:37:33.800 --> 00:37:35.720
What I want doesn't matter,

576
00:37:35.720 --> 00:37:37.760
and then whatever you want, God.

577
00:37:37.760 --> 00:37:39.680
Then he eventually had to tell me, no, Ashley,

578
00:37:39.680 --> 00:37:42.240
I do value what you have to bring,

579
00:37:42.240 --> 00:37:45.920
and I desire that to be part of the decision together.

580
00:37:45.920 --> 00:37:53.200
But he wouldn't, what do you call that?

581
00:37:53.200 --> 00:37:55.960
I've lost the word that I've been using,

582
00:37:55.960 --> 00:37:59.520
but anyway, overpower my will.

583
00:37:59.520 --> 00:38:02.840
He does as a loving and protective parent,

584
00:38:02.840 --> 00:38:05.520
keep me from destroying myself.

585
00:38:05.520 --> 00:38:10.200
He does that, but he doesn't violate my will,

586
00:38:10.240 --> 00:38:16.400
but he will protect me from destroying myself ultimately.

587
00:38:16.400 --> 00:38:22.160
Okay. Well, I think I figured out what my question is.

588
00:38:22.160 --> 00:38:29.280
Okay. So all of those come together to this question.

589
00:38:29.280 --> 00:38:33.440
Can anyone resist the will of God?

590
00:38:33.440 --> 00:38:34.680
Okay.

591
00:38:34.680 --> 00:38:38.680
Yeah. I mean, aren't there scriptures that say no one can?

592
00:38:39.320 --> 00:38:42.400
Yeah. So that's why I started kind of going backwards from that.

593
00:38:42.400 --> 00:38:43.600
Do we really have free will?

594
00:38:43.600 --> 00:38:47.240
God always gets his way, not in an overpowering way.

595
00:38:47.240 --> 00:38:49.880
It might not be like, for example,

596
00:38:49.880 --> 00:38:52.720
the first generation that didn't enter the promised land.

597
00:38:52.720 --> 00:38:56.440
Well, then it was the next generation.

598
00:38:56.440 --> 00:39:02.160
So he always gets his way, but anyway.

599
00:39:02.160 --> 00:39:05.560
But the question is, in our individual lives,

600
00:39:05.560 --> 00:39:11.400
if he has, you know, ordained something to be,

601
00:39:11.400 --> 00:39:15.880
has he revealed something to us?

602
00:39:15.880 --> 00:39:19.400
Can anyone resist his will?

603
00:39:19.400 --> 00:39:20.920
Yeah. Okay. Good point.

604
00:39:20.920 --> 00:39:27.800
So we cannot thwart something that God has decided that he wants to do.

605
00:39:27.800 --> 00:39:32.920
If we do not partner with him in the way that he desires us to partner with him,

606
00:39:32.920 --> 00:39:36.360
he will find another way to do it.

607
00:39:36.360 --> 00:39:39.840
And because he, remember, we were talking about this the other day

608
00:39:39.840 --> 00:39:43.360
when we were talking about, you know, God giving us,

609
00:39:43.360 --> 00:39:45.840
like someone saying that God had promised them

610
00:39:45.840 --> 00:39:48.600
that they were going to get married to a specific person,

611
00:39:48.600 --> 00:39:51.880
or, you know, that God had promised them a specific house or whatever.

612
00:39:51.880 --> 00:39:55.120
Well, we were talking about the fact that other people's wills

613
00:39:55.120 --> 00:39:56.240
are involved in all of that,

614
00:39:56.240 --> 00:39:59.560
whether it be the sellers of the house or the other person, you know,

615
00:40:00.000 --> 00:40:02.640
this person would be marrying that God promised,

616
00:40:02.640 --> 00:40:05.000
you know, person A that they would marry person B.

617
00:40:05.000 --> 00:40:10.000
Well, did, is person B's will is involved in that as well.

618
00:40:10.840 --> 00:40:15.840
And so God, if God made a promise to us,

619
00:40:17.000 --> 00:40:19.040
even if other people's wills are involved,

620
00:40:19.040 --> 00:40:24.040
God's promise to us absolutely 100% will never be thwarted.

621
00:40:24.080 --> 00:40:26.400
If we choose to stand on his promise,

622
00:40:26.400 --> 00:40:31.400
it cannot be thwarted by someone else ever, period.

623
00:40:31.560 --> 00:40:36.560
It's just that it won't always manifest in the way

624
00:40:38.920 --> 00:40:42.000
that we maybe had anticipated it would,

625
00:40:42.000 --> 00:40:43.680
but it will always manifest.

626
00:40:43.680 --> 00:40:45.080
Case in point, what you brought up

627
00:40:45.080 --> 00:40:46.900
was a really good example in the Bible

628
00:40:46.900 --> 00:40:49.720
where God had promised Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob,

629
00:40:49.720 --> 00:40:51.160
hey, you know, I'm gonna leave,

630
00:40:51.160 --> 00:40:52.680
bring your people out of Egypt,

631
00:40:52.680 --> 00:40:55.480
and then I promise I'm gonna give them to,

632
00:40:55.480 --> 00:40:57.080
allow them to conquer the promised land,

633
00:40:57.080 --> 00:40:58.760
I'm gonna give it to them, et cetera.

634
00:40:58.760 --> 00:41:02.800
Well, you know, they had the opportunity to step into that,

635
00:41:02.800 --> 00:41:05.240
and they said no, and God's like, fine,

636
00:41:05.240 --> 00:41:06.520
I'm not gonna make you.

637
00:41:06.520 --> 00:41:08.040
You have the opportunity to receive it

638
00:41:08.040 --> 00:41:09.200
because I've already given it to you,

639
00:41:09.200 --> 00:41:10.640
but I'm not gonna make you receive it.

640
00:41:10.640 --> 00:41:12.320
I'm not gonna violate your will.

641
00:41:12.320 --> 00:41:13.960
You've made a choice, so you go on.

642
00:41:13.960 --> 00:41:16.640
However, my promise still stands,

643
00:41:16.640 --> 00:41:20.960
and I will make sure that my word is always kept.

644
00:41:20.960 --> 00:41:22.760
And so I'm just going to wait

645
00:41:22.760 --> 00:41:26.000
until someone is willing to receive it,

646
00:41:26.000 --> 00:41:28.440
to partner with me to receive it.

647
00:41:28.440 --> 00:41:30.960
But I'm going to continue to look for

648
00:41:30.960 --> 00:41:32.440
and prepare people in the earth

649
00:41:32.440 --> 00:41:36.080
that will, through that art,

650
00:41:36.080 --> 00:41:41.080
that desire to see my promise manifested in their life

651
00:41:41.840 --> 00:41:43.400
and partner with it.

652
00:41:43.400 --> 00:41:44.960
That was a perfect example.

653
00:41:46.400 --> 00:41:48.160
Did I answer the question?

654
00:41:48.160 --> 00:41:49.200
Yeah, yeah.

655
00:41:50.280 --> 00:41:51.120
Okay.

656
00:41:53.760 --> 00:41:58.760
So, hey, Susan, glad you were able to jump on.

657
00:42:04.280 --> 00:42:07.440
Let's see, I think I missed something somewhere.

658
00:42:10.520 --> 00:42:14.320
Yeah, I know, sorry, I was just looking at the chats.

659
00:42:14.320 --> 00:42:18.160
Yeah, the fact that we were taught that we were just worms.

660
00:42:18.160 --> 00:42:19.480
Yeah, I know.

661
00:42:19.600 --> 00:42:22.840
I was never given that word, but that's how I felt.

662
00:42:25.040 --> 00:42:30.040
So, and did anyone have another, any other question?

663
00:42:31.520 --> 00:42:34.120
Hey, Renee, you're on, how are you?

664
00:42:35.080 --> 00:42:37.240
It's a pretty profile picture you've got.

665
00:42:39.320 --> 00:42:41.720
Hey, sorry, I had to run an errand for,

666
00:42:43.160 --> 00:42:46.680
so I had to have you on,

667
00:42:46.680 --> 00:42:47.760
or I had to have my picture on,

668
00:42:47.760 --> 00:42:49.960
because I was in safe driving mode, so.

669
00:42:50.840 --> 00:42:53.320
That's good, that's good, yeah.

670
00:42:54.320 --> 00:42:56.480
I don't even know, oh, no, I do have a picture.

671
00:42:56.480 --> 00:42:58.160
I was gonna say, I don't even know if I have a picture,

672
00:42:58.160 --> 00:43:00.360
well, mine's off, but yeah.

673
00:43:01.800 --> 00:43:03.160
Yeah, well, good, it's good to see you.

674
00:43:03.160 --> 00:43:06.320
It was fun to see you in person the other day at,

675
00:43:06.320 --> 00:43:08.960
for those of you who don't know,

676
00:43:08.960 --> 00:43:11.960
so Amy, Renee and I all live in the area,

677
00:43:11.960 --> 00:43:15.880
and Amy, you know, obviously just moved into her new house,

678
00:43:15.880 --> 00:43:17.560
so she had a housewarming party,

679
00:43:18.360 --> 00:43:20.440
and Renee and I had already had lunch together

680
00:43:20.440 --> 00:43:21.640
several weeks ago,

681
00:43:22.800 --> 00:43:24.680
but she and I got to see each other again

682
00:43:24.680 --> 00:43:26.720
at Amy's housewarming, so.

683
00:43:28.680 --> 00:43:32.240
Yeah, I even liked Amy's house better in person

684
00:43:32.240 --> 00:43:34.160
than I did in the pictures that I saw,

685
00:43:34.160 --> 00:43:35.000
so I really liked it.

686
00:43:35.000 --> 00:43:37.000
Yeah, it's so pretty.

687
00:43:37.000 --> 00:43:38.480
Yeah, pretty.

688
00:43:38.480 --> 00:43:40.280
Yeah, thanks for coming, you guys,

689
00:43:40.280 --> 00:43:42.840
and that was a far piece for you, Renee.

690
00:43:42.840 --> 00:43:43.680
I appreciate you coming all the way over.

691
00:43:43.680 --> 00:43:46.000
I would miss it, of course, I wouldn't miss it.

692
00:43:46.000 --> 00:43:46.840
I'd miss it.

693
00:43:48.560 --> 00:43:52.160
Okay, so does anyone have anything

694
00:43:52.160 --> 00:43:55.640
in the last several minutes before we jump off?

695
00:43:57.040 --> 00:43:59.920
Question or anything, Laura's been just,

696
00:43:59.920 --> 00:44:03.800
I don't know, kind of, I mean, tossing around with the Lord,

697
00:44:03.800 --> 00:44:06.760
and while y'all are, while y'all come up with something,

698
00:44:06.760 --> 00:44:11.120
I'm trying to think if there was anything for me.

699
00:44:11.120 --> 00:44:13.440
He was, is working on moving me

700
00:44:13.440 --> 00:44:16.320
into a greater measure of rest today,

701
00:44:16.320 --> 00:44:18.560
which I was able to finally shift into.

702
00:44:19.800 --> 00:44:23.720
I'd been struggling with something recently,

703
00:44:23.720 --> 00:44:25.520
and I don't even really know how to name it,

704
00:44:25.520 --> 00:44:29.200
but just struggling, you know,

705
00:44:29.200 --> 00:44:31.440
just very foundational things, you know,

706
00:44:31.440 --> 00:44:36.000
provision, protection, identity, all of the basic ones,

707
00:44:36.000 --> 00:44:41.000
and he was just having me face a deeper level of it,

708
00:44:42.000 --> 00:44:47.000
so today, I really got down to,

709
00:44:47.480 --> 00:44:49.040
okay, what is it that I need to do?

710
00:44:49.040 --> 00:44:53.040
What am I, and not from a level of,

711
00:44:53.040 --> 00:44:55.600
okay, let's figure all of this out,

712
00:44:55.600 --> 00:44:58.160
and what's really going on, and whatever.

713
00:44:58.160 --> 00:45:00.080
It was more of an understanding.

714
00:45:00.000 --> 00:45:04.760
of, okay, what's going on is in like, am I in a state of, I'm obviously in a state of

715
00:45:04.760 --> 00:45:06.280
resistance.

716
00:45:06.280 --> 00:45:11.400
You know, I'm, what lie am I believing about the Lord?

717
00:45:11.400 --> 00:45:13.920
And I realized, I don't believe he's going to protect me.

718
00:45:13.920 --> 00:45:17.520
I don't believe he's going to provide for me in such and such an area.

719
00:45:17.520 --> 00:45:21.720
I thought I'm in a state of resistance so that, okay, I know what to do.

720
00:45:21.720 --> 00:45:26.760
So, so I was out and, and, and, uh, finally got down to kind of like that place of my

721
00:45:26.760 --> 00:45:29.600
soul and just had to let it go.

722
00:45:29.600 --> 00:45:33.960
And what I did is I chose, so you remember, there's the thing of like, we have to see

723
00:45:33.960 --> 00:45:34.960
it to believe it.

724
00:45:34.960 --> 00:45:36.160
And that's the state that I was in.

725
00:45:36.160 --> 00:45:40.920
I was like looking for proof, but it's such a habit.

726
00:45:40.920 --> 00:45:43.120
I don't realize that that's what I'm doing.

727
00:45:43.120 --> 00:45:46.080
I don't know if y'all experienced this.

728
00:45:46.080 --> 00:45:51.680
I, I, I know all of this stuff in my head and yet I, I'm continually finding myself

729
00:45:51.680 --> 00:45:56.040
doing it in different areas and, and I have to realize what is it that I'm doing?

730
00:45:56.040 --> 00:45:59.160
I thought I'm waiting for proof.

731
00:45:59.160 --> 00:46:03.720
That's why I haven't shifted yet in this one area of just waiting for proof.

732
00:46:03.720 --> 00:46:05.480
And cause I didn't know, why am I struggling?

733
00:46:05.480 --> 00:46:06.480
I know better than this.

734
00:46:06.480 --> 00:46:07.480
Why am I struggling?

735
00:46:07.480 --> 00:46:13.280
I was waiting for proof, apparently emotional, uh, scriptural, whatever.

736
00:46:13.280 --> 00:46:14.280
Then I was waiting for that.

737
00:46:14.280 --> 00:46:15.400
So I could believe in that.

738
00:46:15.400 --> 00:46:17.560
So I could finally act on it.

739
00:46:17.560 --> 00:46:19.400
And finally I realized what was going on.

740
00:46:19.400 --> 00:46:21.480
I thought, Ashley, you know what to do.

741
00:46:21.480 --> 00:46:24.800
You choose first, you choose it.

742
00:46:24.800 --> 00:46:30.360
So I, so I wrote it down to remind myself what it was I was choosing this morning and

743
00:46:30.360 --> 00:46:37.080
let's see if I could, I'll, I'll tell you what it was, but I wrote down, I told myself

744
00:46:37.080 --> 00:46:41.800
and I wrote it down as a note so that I would see it when I opened my phone.

745
00:46:41.800 --> 00:46:50.960
Um, uh, so I, because I was just feeling, um, uh, it would just kind of like, uh, the

746
00:46:50.960 --> 00:46:58.600
way that we all have our struggles and the way that, um, I, that I grew up, there were

747
00:46:58.600 --> 00:47:05.680
certain needs and that I had in certain lives that I had believed about myself.

748
00:47:05.680 --> 00:47:08.400
And there were certain, therefore certain desires that I had.

749
00:47:08.400 --> 00:47:14.840
So in other words, I was very much loved, um, by people growing up and yet I was continually

750
00:47:14.840 --> 00:47:21.280
risk, the continually received the things that I saw and heard as lies about myself

751
00:47:21.280 --> 00:47:29.960
that I wasn't worthy of, of love that I, um, uh, that I couldn't expect to be enjoyed or

752
00:47:29.960 --> 00:47:34.200
cherished or, or whatever, even though I was given all of those things.

753
00:47:34.200 --> 00:47:38.440
And now hindsight's 20, 20, I look back, I'm like, Oh my word, my life was full of that.

754
00:47:38.440 --> 00:47:41.920
At the time I received a lie, I didn't receive the truth.

755
00:47:41.920 --> 00:47:45.480
And so that was something that I was struggling with because it was what I was feeling like

756
00:47:45.480 --> 00:47:49.200
in the, in the, in the natural, I projected that onto the Lord.

757
00:47:49.200 --> 00:47:50.960
That's how I began to understand the Lord.

758
00:47:50.960 --> 00:47:56.920
So I'm like, okay, if I can't expect it from people, I absolutely can expect it from the

759
00:47:56.920 --> 00:47:57.920
Lord.

760
00:47:57.920 --> 00:47:59.240
So I realized that's my issue there.

761
00:47:59.240 --> 00:48:03.800
So I told the Lord today, I said, okay, I choose to believe that God, that God, you

762
00:48:03.800 --> 00:48:08.120
know, you Lord chose, I choose to believe that God loves and comforts and treasures

763
00:48:08.120 --> 00:48:17.520
me as much as I desire a person to, um, because I was struggling to, I was, I found myself

764
00:48:17.520 --> 00:48:25.200
in, in, um, not traps, well, they were traps, but in, um, choices that I was making, trying

765
00:48:25.200 --> 00:48:32.600
to comfort something in me that God intended to provide for me.

766
00:48:32.600 --> 00:48:35.360
And I knew I was using substitutes.

767
00:48:35.360 --> 00:48:36.960
We do that with all kinds of things.

768
00:48:36.960 --> 00:48:38.320
We do that with buying things.

769
00:48:38.320 --> 00:48:39.760
We do that with food.

770
00:48:39.760 --> 00:48:41.200
We do that with relationships.

771
00:48:41.200 --> 00:48:43.440
We do that with all kinds of stuff.

772
00:48:43.440 --> 00:48:54.480
And, um, uh, so anyway, I, I needed to believe that because I felt alone, I felt it was,

773
00:48:54.480 --> 00:48:58.480
it's a mode of self comfort because I wasn't receiving comfort from the Lord because I

774
00:48:58.480 --> 00:49:00.920
was, I was not receiving it.

775
00:49:00.920 --> 00:49:01.920
He was giving it.

776
00:49:01.920 --> 00:49:03.360
I wasn't receiving it.

777
00:49:03.360 --> 00:49:08.160
And so I, anyway, I just told the Lord is that I, okay, Lord, I'm not, I'm not waiting

778
00:49:08.160 --> 00:49:09.160
for proof.

779
00:49:09.160 --> 00:49:10.360
I'm not waiting to believe it.

780
00:49:10.360 --> 00:49:12.280
I'm actively choosing this.

781
00:49:12.280 --> 00:49:13.280
I'm choosing that.

782
00:49:13.280 --> 00:49:14.280
It's my reality.

783
00:49:14.280 --> 00:49:15.280
I'm choosing that.

784
00:49:15.280 --> 00:49:16.280
This is who you are.

785
00:49:16.280 --> 00:49:19.880
And I choose to believe that God loves and comforts and treasures me as much as I desire

786
00:49:19.880 --> 00:49:21.600
someone to.

787
00:49:21.600 --> 00:49:22.600
And I shifted.

788
00:49:22.600 --> 00:49:24.480
All I did was choose.

789
00:49:24.480 --> 00:49:25.480
That was it.

790
00:49:25.480 --> 00:49:27.320
So, um, which is really nice.

791
00:49:27.320 --> 00:49:32.000
So once I chose it, I'm already believing it, but I'm coming, I know that God's going

792
00:49:32.000 --> 00:49:38.440
to continue to, to grow me to the point where I will, um, where I will believe it even more

793
00:49:38.440 --> 00:49:39.440
again.

794
00:49:39.440 --> 00:49:40.440
It's effortless.

795
00:49:40.440 --> 00:49:42.040
I'm not trying to believe it.

796
00:49:42.040 --> 00:49:43.960
All I did is I had to choose.

797
00:49:43.960 --> 00:49:48.480
That was the thing that I had to do, but I know that I'm going to come to believe it

798
00:49:48.480 --> 00:49:49.480
more and more.

799
00:49:49.480 --> 00:49:54.520
And as I believe it, I'm going to see it manifest, um, and, and, um, actually see proof of it,

800
00:49:54.520 --> 00:49:59.920
proof in scripture that that is true, but also proof in, in how it re it.

801
00:50:00.000 --> 00:50:01.520
manifest into reality.

802
00:50:01.520 --> 00:50:03.880
Because see, yesterday, and I just want to mention this

803
00:50:03.880 --> 00:50:07.000
as an encouragement to y'all, part of the struggle

804
00:50:07.000 --> 00:50:09.920
is that I was waiting in anticipation

805
00:50:09.920 --> 00:50:12.880
that for something to happen yesterday.

806
00:50:12.880 --> 00:50:15.080
That, you know, talking about like, for instance,

807
00:50:15.080 --> 00:50:17.760
you, Carrie, you know, the house.

808
00:50:17.760 --> 00:50:18.600
I know, I'm sorry.

809
00:50:18.600 --> 00:50:20.840
I know we keep bringing up that example,

810
00:50:20.840 --> 00:50:21.960
but hey, it's a great example.

811
00:50:21.960 --> 00:50:24.160
And, you know, you've written posts about it and whatever.

812
00:50:24.160 --> 00:50:29.160
So it's kind of like a good one page for us to all be on.

813
00:50:29.680 --> 00:50:31.240
Where we were like, okay, Lord,

814
00:50:31.240 --> 00:50:36.080
I'm wanting to believe you for this thing right here.

815
00:50:36.080 --> 00:50:38.760
Well, there was something that I was believing the Lord for.

816
00:50:38.760 --> 00:50:39.880
I was trying not to.

817
00:50:39.880 --> 00:50:42.560
I was like, no, Lord, you'll just provide for me.

818
00:50:42.560 --> 00:50:44.040
I don't know how you'll provide for me,

819
00:50:44.040 --> 00:50:45.140
you'll provide for me.

820
00:50:45.140 --> 00:50:48.200
But I expected that it would manifest

821
00:50:48.200 --> 00:50:49.500
in this particular way.

822
00:50:49.500 --> 00:50:52.080
Because I didn't see how him not coming through

823
00:50:52.080 --> 00:50:54.540
in this way could in any way be good.

824
00:50:55.440 --> 00:50:56.640
I knew better than that,

825
00:50:56.640 --> 00:50:58.640
but I didn't believe better than that, right?

826
00:50:59.360 --> 00:51:00.720
And do you know what happened?

827
00:51:00.720 --> 00:51:02.600
That thing fell through.

828
00:51:02.600 --> 00:51:04.000
It did not manifest.

829
00:51:04.000 --> 00:51:07.140
Now, God did still provide for me,

830
00:51:07.140 --> 00:51:11.400
but it was not in the way I was expecting at all.

831
00:51:11.400 --> 00:51:13.820
I'm like, Lord, that still create,

832
00:51:13.820 --> 00:51:15.960
that still, it's like it felt,

833
00:51:15.960 --> 00:51:18.240
how would I read this?

834
00:51:18.240 --> 00:51:21.040
It provided for me.

835
00:51:21.040 --> 00:51:22.100
Okay, think of it like this.

836
00:51:22.100 --> 00:51:24.140
Think of like you wanted something,

837
00:51:24.140 --> 00:51:25.600
I'm trying to use an example.

838
00:51:25.640 --> 00:51:29.700
Think of the fact that you, I don't know,

839
00:51:29.700 --> 00:51:31.440
you want food, right?

840
00:51:31.440 --> 00:51:34.640
You need money to buy food.

841
00:51:34.640 --> 00:51:35.720
That's the thing.

842
00:51:35.720 --> 00:51:37.240
You want money to buy food.

843
00:51:37.240 --> 00:51:38.440
That was not my issue.

844
00:51:38.440 --> 00:51:41.100
But, and you're like, okay, Lord,

845
00:51:41.100 --> 00:51:42.480
I'm believing you for some money,

846
00:51:42.480 --> 00:51:44.040
so I can go and buy food.

847
00:51:44.040 --> 00:51:46.000
And instead, God doesn't give you money.

848
00:51:46.000 --> 00:51:47.240
And the time comes and goes,

849
00:51:47.240 --> 00:51:48.560
he didn't give you money.

850
00:51:48.560 --> 00:51:50.880
Instead, he just made you not be hungry.

851
00:51:52.120 --> 00:51:54.880
So you're like, okay, well, Lord,

852
00:51:54.880 --> 00:51:56.720
you provided for me.

853
00:51:56.720 --> 00:52:01.440
And yet, what was gonna make me feel comforted

854
00:52:01.440 --> 00:52:03.600
was according to my old mindset,

855
00:52:04.600 --> 00:52:06.720
I believe that provision, Lord,

856
00:52:06.720 --> 00:52:09.040
is you giving me money or giving me food.

857
00:52:09.040 --> 00:52:10.240
And you didn't give me either.

858
00:52:10.240 --> 00:52:12.400
Instead, you just made me not hungry.

859
00:52:12.400 --> 00:52:14.440
So yes, technically, Lord, I agree.

860
00:52:14.440 --> 00:52:15.880
That was providing for me.

861
00:52:15.880 --> 00:52:18.400
And yet, it's this mindset shift of,

862
00:52:18.400 --> 00:52:20.960
yeah, but God, you didn't give me food.

863
00:52:20.960 --> 00:52:23.320
And so what we can do is we can look at that

864
00:52:24.160 --> 00:52:25.760
and take that into our future and go,

865
00:52:25.760 --> 00:52:28.280
see, sometimes he falls through.

866
00:52:28.280 --> 00:52:30.320
And sometimes he's not faithful.

867
00:52:30.320 --> 00:52:33.520
And sometimes he doesn't come through

868
00:52:33.520 --> 00:52:35.120
and manifest in a particular way.

869
00:52:35.120 --> 00:52:40.120
So is this one of the chosen times or not

870
00:52:40.840 --> 00:52:43.440
in which he's going to come through?

871
00:52:43.440 --> 00:52:45.480
We get scared in anticipation of something.

872
00:52:45.480 --> 00:52:47.680
So that's what happened to me yesterday.

873
00:52:47.680 --> 00:52:49.800
Like, okay, Lord, he provided for me,

874
00:52:49.800 --> 00:52:52.360
but it was not in the way

875
00:52:52.360 --> 00:52:54.400
that my old paradigm understood provision.

876
00:52:54.400 --> 00:52:55.920
And so he's trying to shift me

877
00:52:55.920 --> 00:52:59.200
into a new way of choosing to perceive provision.

878
00:53:00.120 --> 00:53:02.040
So today, I was really going to him.

879
00:53:02.040 --> 00:53:03.160
I was like, okay, Lord,

880
00:53:03.160 --> 00:53:05.000
I know I'm really struggling with you.

881
00:53:05.000 --> 00:53:08.600
And I'm sorry that I'm afraid.

882
00:53:08.600 --> 00:53:10.080
I don't feel that you love me.

883
00:53:10.080 --> 00:53:12.280
I don't feel that I can expect to be comforted.

884
00:53:12.280 --> 00:53:13.320
I'm terrified.

885
00:53:13.320 --> 00:53:16.160
I'm all of these things I was telling him.

886
00:53:16.160 --> 00:53:17.760
And I suddenly realized, okay,

887
00:53:17.760 --> 00:53:19.480
I was looking at the physical world

888
00:53:19.480 --> 00:53:22.440
to tell me whether or not God would provide for me.

889
00:53:22.440 --> 00:53:25.400
And when it manifested the way it did yesterday,

890
00:53:25.400 --> 00:53:26.880
that did not make me feel comfortable.

891
00:53:26.880 --> 00:53:28.640
It did not make me feel safe.

892
00:53:28.640 --> 00:53:30.400
So God is always good.

893
00:53:30.400 --> 00:53:31.840
So therefore, I need to stop looking

894
00:53:31.840 --> 00:53:34.520
at the wind and the waves, and I need to choose.

895
00:53:35.440 --> 00:53:38.280
God, I choose that you love me,

896
00:53:38.280 --> 00:53:40.960
that you comfort me, and that you treasure me.

897
00:53:40.960 --> 00:53:43.240
So anyway, I shifted like that.

898
00:53:43.240 --> 00:53:44.840
Like you were talking about, Carrie,

899
00:53:44.840 --> 00:53:46.880
all of a sudden you move into this place of rest

900
00:53:46.880 --> 00:53:49.400
and you're like, I thought I was living a nightmare.

901
00:53:49.400 --> 00:53:52.640
And I'm finding myself at complete rest

902
00:53:52.640 --> 00:53:53.880
in the middle of my nightmare.

903
00:53:53.880 --> 00:53:56.720
So for what it's worth, hopefully that's encouraging

904
00:53:56.720 --> 00:53:58.400
or encouraging to y'all.

905
00:53:59.280 --> 00:54:02.560
So Elizabeth, did you say that you had a question?

906
00:54:03.920 --> 00:54:06.800
Yeah, but I don't wanna keep us either

907
00:54:06.800 --> 00:54:08.120
if you need to wrap up.

908
00:54:08.120 --> 00:54:08.960
No, we're fine.

909
00:54:08.960 --> 00:54:11.240
We're not on a strict time limit.

910
00:54:11.240 --> 00:54:14.160
Whenever people need to get, if we go over,

911
00:54:14.160 --> 00:54:16.000
people just leave whenever they need to leave.

912
00:54:16.000 --> 00:54:17.800
So you just go ahead.

913
00:54:17.800 --> 00:54:19.360
That's how I run my Zooms too.

914
00:54:19.360 --> 00:54:20.920
That works well.

915
00:54:20.920 --> 00:54:24.280
Okay, so I guess I'm curious

916
00:54:24.280 --> 00:54:26.000
because all you ladies are here live

917
00:54:26.000 --> 00:54:28.280
and have, I think most of you have been

918
00:54:28.280 --> 00:54:33.280
through the initial intensive part of the rest,

919
00:54:34.200 --> 00:54:35.040
the four weeks.

920
00:54:35.040 --> 00:54:38.320
I'm guessing most of you have been through the four weeks.

921
00:54:38.320 --> 00:54:40.320
And I'm brand new to the four weeks.

922
00:54:40.320 --> 00:54:45.320
And I'm like, I'm in the like, how do we shift here?

923
00:54:46.160 --> 00:54:48.960
Phase of like, what does it even mean to shift into rest?

924
00:54:48.960 --> 00:54:51.920
But knowing that that's the call,

925
00:54:51.920 --> 00:54:54.320
like knowing that that's exactly where God has me

926
00:54:54.320 --> 00:54:58.360
and where like what he's doing and on every level,

927
00:54:58.360 --> 00:55:00.200
not just because.

928
00:55:00.000 --> 00:55:04.560
as of this community and this intensive, but including it,

929
00:55:04.560 --> 00:55:08.480
but also literally on every level and every relationship,

930
00:55:08.480 --> 00:55:11.520
it's being confirmed over and over

931
00:55:11.520 --> 00:55:12.760
that this is where he has me.

932
00:55:12.760 --> 00:55:15.000
So it's like a now moment, right?

933
00:55:15.000 --> 00:55:16.840
It's a, you know, when you get a now word

934
00:55:16.840 --> 00:55:18.480
where you're like, this is for right now,

935
00:55:18.480 --> 00:55:19.320
it's one of those.

936
00:55:19.320 --> 00:55:23.200
And so I feel like,

937
00:55:26.160 --> 00:55:27.520
now I'm trying to think of good analogies

938
00:55:27.520 --> 00:55:28.680
because Ashley's is so great.

939
00:55:28.680 --> 00:55:29.520
You're like, you keep coming up

940
00:55:29.520 --> 00:55:30.680
with these amazing analogies,

941
00:55:30.680 --> 00:55:35.680
but like say my daughter's in the store

942
00:55:36.400 --> 00:55:38.400
and I sent her in alone

943
00:55:38.400 --> 00:55:40.800
and she knows that she's looking for

944
00:55:40.800 --> 00:55:43.280
like the little ice cream shop within the store, right?

945
00:55:43.280 --> 00:55:44.360
Cause big stores a lot of times

946
00:55:44.360 --> 00:55:45.560
have little separate places.

947
00:55:45.560 --> 00:55:48.560
And so she knows she's like looking for the ice cream shop,

948
00:55:48.560 --> 00:55:51.560
but like she has no,

949
00:55:52.440 --> 00:55:55.000
like she has never had ice cream before.

950
00:55:56.320 --> 00:55:57.160
Okay, I'm trying here.

951
00:55:57.160 --> 00:55:58.000
Just bear with me.

952
00:55:58.040 --> 00:55:59.240
Like she's never had ice cream before

953
00:55:59.240 --> 00:56:01.120
and she is excited about it.

954
00:56:01.120 --> 00:56:02.600
And she knows that that's what she's there for.

955
00:56:02.600 --> 00:56:04.440
But she like goes up to the ice cream shop

956
00:56:04.440 --> 00:56:05.440
and she's just like,

957
00:56:06.880 --> 00:56:08.120
I have no idea where to start.

958
00:56:08.120 --> 00:56:10.800
Like, what do I, how do I choose here?

959
00:56:10.800 --> 00:56:13.840
Like, how do I even know what I like?

960
00:56:13.840 --> 00:56:16.760
Like, what does it look like for me to be satisfied

961
00:56:16.760 --> 00:56:19.240
by this amazing thing I've heard about?

962
00:56:19.240 --> 00:56:20.080
That's so amazing.

963
00:56:20.080 --> 00:56:22.680
Okay, so say that's the analogy.

964
00:56:22.680 --> 00:56:25.600
It's like, that's how I feel a bit with rest

965
00:56:25.600 --> 00:56:27.520
because it's so foreign.

966
00:56:28.520 --> 00:56:30.160
And it's been such a long time coming

967
00:56:30.160 --> 00:56:32.000
that everyone talks about it.

968
00:56:32.000 --> 00:56:33.720
Like, I feel like I see all these believers

969
00:56:33.720 --> 00:56:34.800
that are operating from this place

970
00:56:34.800 --> 00:56:36.480
and a lot that aren't as well,

971
00:56:36.480 --> 00:56:38.360
but it has felt so elusive.

972
00:56:38.360 --> 00:56:40.720
And so like for everyone else but me,

973
00:56:40.720 --> 00:56:42.680
and why can I not grab hold of this?

974
00:56:42.680 --> 00:56:44.760
And so there's been so much striving.

975
00:56:44.760 --> 00:56:46.920
So I guess my question is,

976
00:56:46.920 --> 00:56:51.400
what does it look like in the beginning stages of shifting,

977
00:56:51.400 --> 00:56:53.880
even in the practical, like I'm asking the Lord,

978
00:56:53.880 --> 00:56:55.440
do you want me to fast from this?

979
00:56:55.440 --> 00:56:57.680
Like I'm already fasting sugar

980
00:56:58.400 --> 00:56:59.240
and that's not to brag,

981
00:56:59.240 --> 00:57:00.080
but just to be honest with you guys,

982
00:57:00.080 --> 00:57:01.640
because I have no reason to brag about fasting.

983
00:57:01.640 --> 00:57:05.160
It's not something that, I've never done like a sugar fast.

984
00:57:05.160 --> 00:57:08.000
I've never even fasted for more than three days.

985
00:57:09.360 --> 00:57:12.640
And I don't know why I'm doing it

986
00:57:12.640 --> 00:57:16.200
except that it's part of this season of praying and fasting.

987
00:57:16.200 --> 00:57:19.360
And so other than that,

988
00:57:19.360 --> 00:57:21.680
it's like, do I wanna be on social media?

989
00:57:21.680 --> 00:57:23.360
Is there some kind of balance Lord

990
00:57:23.360 --> 00:57:25.600
about how much I'm on social media?

991
00:57:25.640 --> 00:57:28.280
Like I have no idea how long the season is

992
00:57:28.280 --> 00:57:32.160
where he's calling me to pause from so much,

993
00:57:32.160 --> 00:57:35.560
like where I basically, my whole life is on pause

994
00:57:35.560 --> 00:57:37.520
with the Lord right now for what he's doing,

995
00:57:37.520 --> 00:57:39.440
except for my part-time job

996
00:57:39.440 --> 00:57:41.360
and everything else with my business,

997
00:57:41.360 --> 00:57:45.800
with my children, with my, how I spend my time,

998
00:57:45.800 --> 00:57:48.040
with my relationships, with what I'm involved in,

999
00:57:48.040 --> 00:57:53.040
that's all up for consideration with the Lord of like,

1000
00:57:53.600 --> 00:57:57.800
what does this look like to shift from exhaustion?

1001
00:57:57.800 --> 00:57:58.640
I'm exhausted.

1002
00:57:58.640 --> 00:58:01.960
I'm completely exhausted into rest.

1003
00:58:01.960 --> 00:58:04.560
And I mean, being physically, emotionally,

1004
00:58:04.560 --> 00:58:06.360
in every way tired,

1005
00:58:06.360 --> 00:58:11.360
but also not wanting to disconnect from everyone,

1006
00:58:12.400 --> 00:58:14.120
in the wrong places,

1007
00:58:14.120 --> 00:58:15.440
cause I do still need community

1008
00:58:15.440 --> 00:58:17.680
and relationships through this,

1009
00:58:17.680 --> 00:58:18.880
but I don't wanna be so busy

1010
00:58:18.880 --> 00:58:21.040
that I miss the chance to shift to rest.

1011
00:58:22.000 --> 00:58:23.320
Yeah.

1012
00:58:23.320 --> 00:58:24.800
Yeah, no, it's a good question.

1013
00:58:24.800 --> 00:58:28.480
So the thing is that rest is strictly,

1014
00:58:28.480 --> 00:58:30.720
rest is not inactivity.

1015
00:58:30.720 --> 00:58:33.440
Rest is a place.

1016
00:58:33.440 --> 00:58:34.960
It is a place in the spirit.

1017
00:58:34.960 --> 00:58:37.600
It's a place in God, abiding in God.

1018
00:58:37.600 --> 00:58:40.760
And from that place, we do everything.

1019
00:58:41.600 --> 00:58:44.680
From that place of rest, we have relationships

1020
00:58:44.680 --> 00:58:46.520
and we interact in those relationships.

1021
00:58:46.520 --> 00:58:49.720
From that place of rest, we work.

1022
00:58:50.160 --> 00:58:51.440
We go to a job.

1023
00:58:53.080 --> 00:58:56.680
We make decisions about what to do with our children.

1024
00:58:56.680 --> 00:58:58.360
We spend time with our children.

1025
00:58:58.360 --> 00:59:00.320
We, I don't know, we buy things.

1026
00:59:00.320 --> 00:59:02.240
We decide whether or not to buy a house,

1027
00:59:02.240 --> 00:59:03.400
all kinds of things.

1028
00:59:03.400 --> 00:59:04.840
Everything is from that place.

1029
00:59:04.840 --> 00:59:08.120
So it's not inactivity.

1030
00:59:08.120 --> 00:59:11.640
It is, we're used to doing everything

1031
00:59:11.640 --> 00:59:14.920
with a lot of work, a lot of angst, a lot of effort.

1032
00:59:14.920 --> 00:59:19.360
And so now we're learning how to do the same things

1033
00:59:19.360 --> 00:59:20.640
only in a place of rest,

1034
00:59:20.640 --> 00:59:23.440
understanding that God will provide the result.

1035
00:59:23.440 --> 00:59:25.480
I no longer have to work for it.

1036
00:59:25.480 --> 00:59:29.080
I no longer have to create a result in a relationship.

1037
00:59:29.080 --> 00:59:32.240
I no longer have to create a profit in a business.

1038
00:59:32.240 --> 00:59:34.360
I know, you know, the burden, the weight,

1039
00:59:34.360 --> 00:59:37.440
and the responsibility is not on me.

1040
00:59:40.120 --> 00:59:43.200
And sorry, let me look something up.

1041
00:59:43.200 --> 00:59:45.000
It's not on me anymore.

1042
00:59:45.440 --> 00:59:50.440
And so it's, so have you watched the session

1043
00:59:51.960 --> 00:59:53.960
on the two trees yet?

1044
01:00:00.000 --> 01:00:06.880
Yeah, you're on mute. There you go. Okay, sorry I'm trying to plug in because my

1045
01:00:06.880 --> 01:00:12.440
phone's getting to the dead zone this late at night. Can you hear me? Yeah, yeah.

1046
01:00:12.440 --> 01:00:18.800
Okay, I can't hear you as well. Oh, okay, have you watched the Two Trees yet

1047
01:00:18.800 --> 01:00:23.380
session? Two Trees, that's the one I've got to watch because that that was the

1048
01:00:23.380 --> 01:00:29.760
big revelation this first week was that and it's funny because I mean yes we

1049
01:00:29.760 --> 01:00:35.920
talked about it briefly but it was not because we talked about it it was like

1050
01:00:35.920 --> 01:00:42.840
the revelation came simultaneously like like we were talking about it but not

1051
01:00:42.840 --> 01:00:48.160
really just mentioning it and God was showing me that my pattern is trying to

1052
01:00:48.160 --> 01:00:52.640
figure out so much anxiety over trying to figure out what's happened in the

1053
01:00:52.640 --> 01:00:55.920
past and what's going on and what's good and what's bad and if I'm good and bad

1054
01:00:55.960 --> 01:01:00.680
and it's like the same thing as the tree of the knowledge of good and evil like I

1055
01:01:00.680 --> 01:01:05.360
saw that that was the exact pattern and cycle that had me completely wrecked in

1056
01:01:05.360 --> 01:01:12.360
anxiety. Yes, yeah, so that that will be a really good one. I reckon I always

1057
01:01:12.360 --> 01:01:15.760
recommend that people watch them in the order that I put them in just because

1058
01:01:15.760 --> 01:01:20.280
I've noticed from historically listening to people that is the order that made

1059
01:01:20.280 --> 01:01:26.800
the most sense and helped them grab a hold in and and actually shift into

1060
01:01:26.800 --> 01:01:32.640
into rest faster but but yes when you get to those two trees that's that's

1061
01:01:32.640 --> 01:01:38.040
helpful because it shows that we do the same things but we need to understand

1062
01:01:38.040 --> 01:01:41.840
that we do them from the tree of life meaning out of relationship with God

1063
01:01:41.840 --> 01:01:47.200
which is the place of rest as opposed to doing it believing we're on our own

1064
01:01:47.200 --> 01:01:52.040
we're abandoned by God we got to figure it all out ourselves according to this

1065
01:01:52.040 --> 01:01:57.640
arbitrary list of what is good and what is evil and then in there I talk about

1066
01:01:57.640 --> 01:02:02.520
the fact that Eve didn't choose the tree because she was interested in doing in

1067
01:02:02.520 --> 01:02:07.160
rebelling against the Lord that she was interested in in doing something evil

1068
01:02:07.160 --> 01:02:12.680
no she was interested in doing something good she was she wanted to do good for

1069
01:02:12.680 --> 01:02:17.200
the Lord and she wanted you to be right and shoot because the what Satan tempted

1070
01:02:17.200 --> 01:02:21.240
her with was not doing evil Satan tempted her with wouldn't you like to be

1071
01:02:21.240 --> 01:02:27.120
as wise as God wise is a good thing wisdom is a good thing people who want to

1072
01:02:27.120 --> 01:02:31.360
do evil things have no interest whatsoever in wisdom so she wanted

1073
01:02:31.360 --> 01:02:37.200
something something good but she wanted to choose it on her own she wanted to

1074
01:02:37.200 --> 01:02:41.040
she felt that she had to operate apart from God because she thought God was

1075
01:02:41.040 --> 01:02:45.120
holding out on her therefore that she wasn't protected or provided for in some

1076
01:02:45.120 --> 01:02:49.000
way and oh my goodness I need to make sure that I keep up I need to make sure

1077
01:02:49.000 --> 01:02:53.840
that I do the right thing so I and I'm alone and abandoned to do it and to

1078
01:02:53.840 --> 01:02:58.520
figure it out on my own and then she made a choice we've lived our whole life

1079
01:02:58.520 --> 01:03:02.680
like that we've created our relationships off of that we have

1080
01:03:02.680 --> 01:03:06.880
struggled to develop our businesses or our ideas for our ministry or whatever

1081
01:03:06.880 --> 01:03:11.720
based off of the fact that we thought we were by ourselves and so it's

1082
01:03:11.720 --> 01:03:15.560
shifting from believing that we're by ourselves and that the responsibility of

1083
01:03:15.560 --> 01:03:22.080
the result relies completely on us shifting into no trusting that giving up

1084
01:03:22.080 --> 01:03:26.800
control of the result and control of how we get there and just putting it

1085
01:03:26.800 --> 01:03:30.480
completely in the hands of the Lord so we no longer bear the responsibility and

1086
01:03:30.480 --> 01:03:35.440
now all we all we have to do is just focus on having the relationship with

1087
01:03:35.440 --> 01:03:39.840
the Lord in which we can enjoy doing the activities with him we can enjoy the

1088
01:03:39.840 --> 01:03:45.040
dance with him the undulation but we no longer have to carry the burden of it

1089
01:03:45.040 --> 01:03:48.640
because Christ says you know get lay your yoke upon it lay your burden upon

1090
01:03:48.640 --> 01:03:53.160
me because for you know and they and then he talks in another verse about the

1091
01:03:53.160 --> 01:03:57.520
fact of in another passage about the fact that and you know my yoke is easy

1092
01:03:57.520 --> 01:04:02.640
and my burden is light because he's the one he says I want to provide the result

1093
01:04:02.640 --> 01:04:06.480
you no longer have to so that's the difference between how it is that we've

1094
01:04:06.480 --> 01:04:13.120
been living life which we associate busyness and activity with not rest and

1095
01:04:13.120 --> 01:04:18.880
it's not true the reason that we've done that is we don't know how to do and not

1096
01:04:18.880 --> 01:04:25.240
be and not and not be working like working like strife anxiety God wants to

1097
01:04:25.240 --> 01:04:31.080
show us how to do without working for it without putting forth all of this

1098
01:04:31.080 --> 01:04:37.040
effort and this energy and and what I so Carrie mentioned she said yes there's

1099
01:04:37.040 --> 01:04:40.320
been days when I'm busier and more productive than I've ever been in my

1100
01:04:40.320 --> 01:04:44.520
life but my soul is at rest and I'm not stressed it's just it just flows and the

1101
01:04:44.520 --> 01:04:50.480
steps at the same thing and and I remember when a way as both of them as

1102
01:04:50.480 --> 01:04:54.040
they were walking on this journey and how they shifted into rest and it's one

1103
01:04:54.040 --> 01:04:58.600
of those things where kind of like salvation if you tell somebody out about

1104
01:04:58.600 --> 01:05:01.960
salvation how wonderful

1105
01:05:00.000 --> 01:05:01.880
What is to someone on the outside?

1106
01:05:01.880 --> 01:05:04.760
They're like, I don't understand until you experience it.

1107
01:05:04.760 --> 01:05:08.680
And you're thinking, Oh my word, how do I describe this to someone else?

1108
01:05:09.000 --> 01:05:10.320
It's the same thing with rest.

1109
01:05:10.520 --> 01:05:12.640
Once you shift into it, you're going, Oh my word.

1110
01:05:13.160 --> 01:05:14.400
This is amazing.

1111
01:05:14.600 --> 01:05:16.040
I didn't know I could feel like this.

1112
01:05:16.200 --> 01:05:17.800
How do I explain it to someone else?

1113
01:05:17.960 --> 01:05:22.560
If you go back and watch the test, these ladies testimonials in, um, if you go

1114
01:05:22.560 --> 01:05:25.320
back through my Facebook page and you look through their testimonials that

1115
01:05:25.320 --> 01:05:28.920
they, that they posted, they all have the same problem that I did.

1116
01:05:29.320 --> 01:05:33.240
And that is trying to explain what happened to their life.

1117
01:05:33.880 --> 01:05:38.160
Or if, uh, if you've watched the chosen in, in Mary, Mary Magdalene

1118
01:05:38.160 --> 01:05:41.160
mentions, you know, when she's talking to Nicodemus, she, he says, well,

1119
01:05:41.160 --> 01:05:42.120
what on earth happened to you?

1120
01:05:42.120 --> 01:05:44.360
Last time I saw you, you were possessed with demons.

1121
01:05:44.760 --> 01:05:47.080
And she said, I don't know what happened.

1122
01:05:47.280 --> 01:05:52.000
She said, all I know is that I used to be different, but, um, or I used to

1123
01:05:52.000 --> 01:05:53.680
be one way, but now I'm different.

1124
01:05:53.920 --> 01:05:56.120
And the thing that happened in between was him.

1125
01:05:56.680 --> 01:06:00.320
That is the best that all of us have come up with and how to describe what

1126
01:06:00.320 --> 01:06:04.520
it's like to operate out of rest to op because it's an, it's, it's a, it's a

1127
01:06:04.520 --> 01:06:09.160
place, it's an abiding in him in which we've discovered in which we now

1128
01:06:09.160 --> 01:06:11.200
realize that we're positioned in him.

1129
01:06:11.400 --> 01:06:15.720
We have a particular identity and therefore there's nothing left to do.

1130
01:06:15.880 --> 01:06:17.160
He's done everything.

1131
01:06:17.200 --> 01:06:18.720
We're already in a position.

1132
01:06:18.720 --> 01:06:20.800
We're not attaining to anything anymore.

1133
01:06:20.800 --> 01:06:23.040
We're no longer responsible for our results.

1134
01:06:23.440 --> 01:06:24.720
We just focus on him.

1135
01:06:24.920 --> 01:06:29.200
The hard part is we have to give up control and we have to trust that he has

1136
01:06:29.200 --> 01:06:33.800
our back, that he's going to protect and provide for us and we no longer have to.

1137
01:06:34.040 --> 01:06:35.840
That's the choice that we're making.

1138
01:06:36.760 --> 01:06:42.000
And Steph says, I remember thinking, oh, oh, I've missed some memo.

1139
01:06:42.040 --> 01:06:42.360
Okay.

1140
01:06:42.360 --> 01:06:46.920
So yes, so Steph, Steph will be the first one to tell you because she, uh, that she

1141
01:06:46.920 --> 01:06:51.200
was, and some of the other ladies, you know, we're, we're, we're, we're getting

1142
01:06:51.200 --> 01:06:53.840
it and the, and then she was like, I don't understand, you know, I feel like

1143
01:06:53.880 --> 01:06:54.840
I'm, I'm missing this.

1144
01:06:54.840 --> 01:06:55.520
That's what she's saying.

1145
01:06:55.520 --> 01:06:56.840
She's like, I felt like I missed something.

1146
01:06:57.200 --> 01:07:00.000
But then all of a sudden she and I had a conversation and I'm telling

1147
01:07:00.000 --> 01:07:02.480
you what she switched like that.

1148
01:07:02.880 --> 01:07:07.560
I mean, it was like literally in, in, I don't know, Steph, you'll have to remind

1149
01:07:07.560 --> 01:07:11.440
me, it was something like basically in a moment, she went from our conversation,

1150
01:07:11.440 --> 01:07:15.680
got off the, got off the phone and totally changed from that point forward.

1151
01:07:16.000 --> 01:07:20.200
She says her husband has commented on how much more I enjoy what I'm doing.

1152
01:07:20.200 --> 01:07:23.160
It's so good to be at rest, niche down and focus on what gives me

1153
01:07:23.160 --> 01:07:25.400
peace as I follow is leading in my business.

1154
01:07:25.760 --> 01:07:27.040
So, um, yeah.

1155
01:07:27.040 --> 01:07:31.320
So anyway, it's one of those things that you'll, that I explain in the sessions,

1156
01:07:31.560 --> 01:07:36.360
how to actually shift into rest, like what you can actually do.

1157
01:07:36.400 --> 01:07:39.440
And then if you have any questions, just feel free to call me and I can

1158
01:07:39.440 --> 01:07:43.160
actually walk you through how to, how to actually do it because that's

1159
01:07:43.160 --> 01:07:45.560
my, my point of this rest intensive.

1160
01:07:45.560 --> 01:07:51.760
It is to help people actually live this, not learn about it, not gain more

1161
01:07:51.760 --> 01:07:56.600
information, but actually enable them to do it, provide the supportive

1162
01:07:56.600 --> 01:07:59.600
environment that they can live it and make it real.

1163
01:08:00.040 --> 01:08:05.440
Um, and, uh, anyway, so you know, you can do that, but once you do that,

1164
01:08:05.480 --> 01:08:09.240
which I can help kind of help you understand kind of how to walk through.

1165
01:08:09.280 --> 01:08:14.400
Um, then, um, uh, then you'll, you, it's something that you experience

1166
01:08:14.400 --> 01:08:18.279
between the Lord and you, because when you're in the place of rest, you've

1167
01:08:18.279 --> 01:08:20.399
now positioned yourself in him.

1168
01:08:20.640 --> 01:08:22.319
You've positioned for yourself in him.

1169
01:08:22.319 --> 01:08:25.880
You thought, and all of a sudden you have this, this understanding that

1170
01:08:25.880 --> 01:08:28.520
comes over you and you realize, oh my word, this is rest.

1171
01:08:28.560 --> 01:08:32.520
Why did I not know that this thing existed, but to try to

1172
01:08:32.520 --> 01:08:34.279
describe it to someone else is.

1173
01:08:35.279 --> 01:08:36.200
It's hard.

1174
01:08:36.200 --> 01:08:39.520
It's like trying to describe love to somebody else until someone's been in

1175
01:08:39.520 --> 01:08:42.640
love and they're like, oh my word, this is what it feels like, but to try to

1176
01:08:42.640 --> 01:08:44.800
describe it is very challenging.

1177
01:08:46.240 --> 01:08:46.520
Wow.

1178
01:08:47.600 --> 01:08:48.279
Sounds amazing.

1179
01:08:48.279 --> 01:08:48.880
Thank you.

1180
01:08:49.120 --> 01:08:50.359
Yeah, you're welcome.

1181
01:08:50.720 --> 01:08:53.120
But yeah, there are some practical things that you can do.

1182
01:08:53.120 --> 01:08:58.520
So it's not like this magical, like theoretical thing that, oh my word.

1183
01:08:58.520 --> 01:09:02.640
I I've I'm blindly having to stumble around and hoping I'm

1184
01:09:02.640 --> 01:09:04.000
going to land in it somewhere.

1185
01:09:04.200 --> 01:09:06.840
No, there's a way that I give people.

1186
01:09:06.880 --> 01:09:13.680
Um, and I, uh, that I help people kind of grasp solid things that, that kind

1187
01:09:13.680 --> 01:09:17.840
of allow people to sink their teeth into something, to actually move towards it.

1188
01:09:17.840 --> 01:09:19.640
But then the, then they land in it.

1189
01:09:20.200 --> 01:09:23.200
And then when they land it, it's like, oh, this is what it's like.

1190
01:09:23.359 --> 01:09:27.399
And then I'm going to be fascinated to discover if you think of a way to be able

1191
01:09:27.399 --> 01:09:29.040
to describe it, once you land in it.

1192
01:09:29.439 --> 01:09:30.840
Oh, everybody.

1193
01:09:30.840 --> 01:09:31.560
It's so easy.

1194
01:09:31.600 --> 01:09:35.800
This is how you describe it because the rest of us have been able to do it.

1195
01:09:36.200 --> 01:09:37.279
It feels so good.

1196
01:09:37.279 --> 01:09:40.760
You're just kind of like, how do you, how do you put this into words?

1197
01:09:41.600 --> 01:09:43.880
So how do you put a life transformed?

1198
01:09:43.920 --> 01:09:45.720
How do you describe a life transformed?

1199
01:09:46.080 --> 01:09:46.520
It's such a.

1200
01:09:46.520 --> 01:09:46.920
Amen.

1201
01:09:47.800 --> 01:09:52.040
Is there anywhere that you tell your story, Ashley, of how you even got here?

1202
01:09:52.040 --> 01:09:55.480
Like how you shifted into rest and how, why you created this?

1203
01:09:55.760 --> 01:09:56.800
Is there anywhere that you share that?

1204
01:09:57.000 --> 01:09:59.640
The closest that I can think of.

1205
01:09:59.680 --> 01:09:59.880
Um,

1206
01:10:00.000 --> 01:10:02.440
I probably should do a testimonial video.

1207
01:10:02.440 --> 01:10:04.400
I have some, okay, so if you go back

1208
01:10:04.400 --> 01:10:06.240
and you look at some of the interviews

1209
01:10:06.240 --> 01:10:08.560
that people have done with me,

1210
01:10:08.560 --> 01:10:11.440
I describe some of it there in videos,

1211
01:10:11.440 --> 01:10:16.440
but otherwise you can go to a post that I made

1212
01:10:19.200 --> 01:10:24.040
in which, I don't know, it's just a picture of me.

1213
01:10:24.040 --> 01:10:27.400
You have to scroll pretty far down, maybe around in March.

1214
01:10:27.400 --> 01:10:30.680
I posted it somewhere in March and it's a long post

1215
01:10:30.680 --> 01:10:34.200
and there I give a brief testimony of how I did,

1216
01:10:34.200 --> 01:10:36.280
but it's related specifically to business.

1217
01:10:36.280 --> 01:10:39.400
It doesn't go as far back as the fact that

1218
01:10:39.400 --> 01:10:41.840
the reason that I evident that that worked out

1219
01:10:41.840 --> 01:10:44.040
and that I struggled in rest and business

1220
01:10:44.040 --> 01:10:47.320
is because maybe shifting into rest and business

1221
01:10:47.320 --> 01:10:50.720
is because it was a deep issue

1222
01:10:50.720 --> 01:10:52.600
that I had dealt with my whole life.

1223
01:10:52.600 --> 01:10:54.240
So that I didn't go into.

1224
01:10:54.240 --> 01:10:56.120
I just talk about it from the start

1225
01:10:56.360 --> 01:10:59.800
like right out of business, right out of the gate.

1226
01:11:00.880 --> 01:11:02.560
But that's close.

1227
01:11:02.560 --> 01:11:04.440
But I've had multiple people ask me for it

1228
01:11:04.440 --> 01:11:07.920
and so I should probably come up with a better video.

1229
01:11:07.920 --> 01:11:09.080
I'd love to hear your story,

1230
01:11:09.080 --> 01:11:11.360
like the parts that are the missing,

1231
01:11:11.360 --> 01:11:12.560
like the more intimate.

1232
01:11:14.680 --> 01:11:16.760
What you just described is maybe not

1233
01:11:16.760 --> 01:11:20.400
in the rest of your testimonials.

1234
01:11:21.400 --> 01:11:22.240
Sometimes.

1235
01:11:22.240 --> 01:11:24.040
Probably not, probably not.

1236
01:11:24.720 --> 01:11:27.200
Yeah, maybe I should do one and post it in the group.

1237
01:11:27.200 --> 01:11:28.240
Haven't thought about that.

1238
01:11:28.240 --> 01:11:31.400
So I guess I just thought that it wouldn't be

1239
01:11:32.400 --> 01:11:34.520
very interesting to people

1240
01:11:34.520 --> 01:11:36.440
because it wasn't personal to them.

1241
01:11:37.400 --> 01:11:39.720
But I think that I'm not crediting the power

1242
01:11:39.720 --> 01:11:41.880
of somebody else's testimony.

1243
01:11:41.880 --> 01:11:44.880
But I do try to use examples from my own life

1244
01:11:44.880 --> 01:11:46.760
in order to help people understand

1245
01:11:46.760 --> 01:11:48.640
like I did at the beginning of this call.

1246
01:11:48.640 --> 01:11:51.880
Or no, just actually I think right before your message,

1247
01:11:51.880 --> 01:11:53.480
message or question.

1248
01:11:53.920 --> 01:11:55.960
I try to give people an understanding of,

1249
01:11:55.960 --> 01:11:57.800
hey, look, I'm still walking through this.

1250
01:11:57.800 --> 01:11:59.640
You know, I haven't arrived.

1251
01:12:00.880 --> 01:12:04.760
And he continues to move me in greater and greater measures.

1252
01:12:04.760 --> 01:12:09.520
But I do that to help people understand that this is,

1253
01:12:09.520 --> 01:12:14.520
to see their situation in light of a larger context.

1254
01:12:17.280 --> 01:12:20.520
They can hear other people's stories in this community.

1255
01:12:20.520 --> 01:12:22.880
They can hear me talk about things periodically.

1256
01:12:22.880 --> 01:12:25.960
And so they have some kind of place to understand

1257
01:12:25.960 --> 01:12:27.840
the uniqueness of their situation,

1258
01:12:27.840 --> 01:12:29.240
which is a good and beautiful thing

1259
01:12:29.240 --> 01:12:30.960
in their relationship with the Lord.

1260
01:12:30.960 --> 01:12:34.040
But to also see how that is related to,

1261
01:12:34.040 --> 01:12:37.080
and it's kind of like the similarities and differences

1262
01:12:37.080 --> 01:12:40.440
between what their personal unique experience looks like

1263
01:12:40.440 --> 01:12:44.880
compared to mine or somebody else's in the group.

1264
01:12:44.880 --> 01:12:47.840
But I didn't want to focus on my own personal experience

1265
01:12:47.840 --> 01:12:50.160
too much because that doesn't mean,

1266
01:12:50.800 --> 01:12:52.960
it's an example and it's an idea for someone,

1267
01:12:52.960 --> 01:12:56.080
but it doesn't help somebody else shift into rest.

1268
01:12:56.080 --> 01:12:58.640
It lets somebody know that they can,

1269
01:12:58.640 --> 01:13:00.040
if they choose to believe that,

1270
01:13:00.040 --> 01:13:02.880
hey, if Ashley can do it, I could do it.

1271
01:13:02.880 --> 01:13:07.600
But otherwise I just kind of figured that while it's just,

1272
01:13:07.600 --> 01:13:11.400
it's just personal to Ashley and that's not my experience.

1273
01:13:11.400 --> 01:13:13.720
I would challenge that because like you said,

1274
01:13:13.720 --> 01:13:16.360
I would challenge that because I think it's actually,

1275
01:13:16.360 --> 01:13:17.920
has a lot of power to transform,

1276
01:13:17.920 --> 01:13:20.760
to hear someone else's journey,

1277
01:13:20.760 --> 01:13:23.800
especially when it's so different and so rare

1278
01:13:26.040 --> 01:13:28.680
to operate from this place,

1279
01:13:28.680 --> 01:13:32.040
that you have a story of doing that

1280
01:13:32.040 --> 01:13:35.160
and then feeling led to help others do that.

1281
01:13:35.160 --> 01:13:38.120
Like all of those details of how you went

1282
01:13:38.120 --> 01:13:40.840
from where you were to now would be,

1283
01:13:40.840 --> 01:13:43.400
I feel like really impactful.

1284
01:13:43.400 --> 01:13:47.240
So no pressure, no special time that you have to do it,

1285
01:13:47.240 --> 01:13:48.600
but I just want you to know it would mean,

1286
01:13:48.600 --> 01:13:51.000
it would actually mean a lot more than you might realize

1287
01:13:51.000 --> 01:13:53.240
to those of us who've been living,

1288
01:13:53.240 --> 01:13:57.120
for me, 35 years from a place of anxiety and striving

1289
01:13:57.120 --> 01:13:58.400
and not feeling worthy.

1290
01:13:58.400 --> 01:14:02.400
Like it's a big deal to hear stories like yours, so.

1291
01:14:02.400 --> 01:14:03.560
Oh, good.

1292
01:14:03.560 --> 01:14:04.960
Okay, well, that's encouraging.

1293
01:14:04.960 --> 01:14:06.160
I appreciate it.

1294
01:14:06.160 --> 01:14:08.040
Yeah, I'm sorry I had to move around there.

1295
01:14:08.040 --> 01:14:10.240
My computer was dying, so I had to,

1296
01:14:12.040 --> 01:14:14.480
she's drinking very loudly.

1297
01:14:15.240 --> 01:14:19.400
So I had to plug in my computer before it died.

1298
01:14:19.400 --> 01:14:20.480
But thanks for letting me know,

1299
01:14:20.480 --> 01:14:22.560
which is so funny because I was just talking

1300
01:14:22.560 --> 01:14:24.800
to a friend of mine about that the other day,

1301
01:14:24.800 --> 01:14:26.960
whose testimony has really helped me.

1302
01:14:26.960 --> 01:14:31.960
And I remember their story sometime that they'll tell me,

1303
01:14:32.200 --> 01:14:33.560
that they've told me before.

1304
01:14:33.560 --> 01:14:35.600
And I was in a similar situation

1305
01:14:35.600 --> 01:14:37.000
and I was telling them the other day,

1306
01:14:37.000 --> 01:14:39.520
I'm like, oh my word, your story was so helpful

1307
01:14:39.520 --> 01:14:41.840
because I was in a similar situation.

1308
01:14:41.840 --> 01:14:44.120
And what helped me know how to handle that situation

1309
01:14:44.760 --> 01:14:46.280
is I remembered your story.

1310
01:14:47.200 --> 01:14:51.400
And so it's so funny that I didn't see

1311
01:14:51.400 --> 01:14:53.520
the similarity for myself.

1312
01:14:53.520 --> 01:14:55.480
I just noticed that I appreciated someone else's,

1313
01:14:55.480 --> 01:14:58.400
but I guess I figured that people wouldn't be,

1314
01:14:58.400 --> 01:15:00.080
my story wouldn't be.

1315
01:15:00.000 --> 01:15:01.800
Helpful to others, which I think is really funny.

1316
01:15:02.960 --> 01:15:07.280
But I thought that that thanks for letting for letting me know that would be helpful.

1317
01:15:09.320 --> 01:15:09.800
So,

1318
01:15:11.760 --> 01:15:15.960
Just encourage you that you can start looking at and let's just say if I miss this thing.

1319
01:15:18.240 --> 01:15:28.840
You don't even know my favorite color. Oh my word. What is my favorite color. I don't think I have a favorite color. I like too many different colors. I'm very particular about shades of color.

1320
01:15:30.600 --> 01:15:30.600


1321
01:15:33.200 --> 01:15:42.560
So funny. Yeah. Oh, I'm so glad I know I love all of y'all. Y'all are fun just encourages you that you can but have to make the journey. Yes.

1322
01:15:43.600 --> 01:15:44.080
Yeah.

1323
01:15:45.040 --> 01:15:57.520
Look, good. Is there anything that someone anyone else has before we jump off. Sorry, my little dog. No. Have y'all seen my little dog at some of you have that this is my little dog.

1324
01:16:00.480 --> 01:16:04.720
She doesn't like to look at the camera. He's weak girl. She

1325
01:16:07.600 --> 01:16:08.800
Yeah, it does.

1326
01:16:09.360 --> 01:16:09.840
She

1327
01:16:11.720 --> 01:16:12.280
School.

1328
01:16:13.600 --> 01:16:18.920
She was there for two weeks. I guess she's she's been back for a couple of weeks. Yeah. You see, Amy.

1329
01:16:19.120 --> 01:16:31.560
And and that was a really neat and neat experience that I'll be able to tell that I'll tell y'all someday about her going to be at school and how the Lord

1330
01:16:32.920 --> 01:16:44.560
made provision for that, how he guided me to what obedient school. She needed to go to that the package, etc. By following where my piece was that because

1331
01:16:45.560 --> 01:16:51.520
And it was not, I couldn't. I didn't make the decision based off of the way that when normally would

1332
01:16:51.960 --> 01:16:58.720
And I was like, no. So, you know, not to make decisions like that anymore. I mean, in that same way anymore. You know how to now make decisions from

1333
01:16:59.200 --> 01:17:09.440
And where your pieces at so I've been had to step out in faith and and do that. So anyway, but that'll be another fun story sometimes. But yeah, she's she has

1334
01:17:09.920 --> 01:17:20.680
Learned all kinds of neat little things. So she now walks. She now heels and very beautifully on a leash. She doesn't bark at people and dogs.

1335
01:17:21.240 --> 01:17:40.560
She used to see what else she she comes when called she's she's an impressive little girl and she is like 10 or 11 years old. So all dogs can learn new tricks. Can't say yes, they can. Yeah. Anyway, so does anyone have anything before we for a jump off.

1336
01:17:41.480 --> 01:17:44.000
That was funny when you said your dog heels. I was like,

1337
01:17:44.640 --> 01:17:46.320
She heals like

1338
01:17:46.320 --> 01:17:46.600
That's

1339
01:17:57.680 --> 01:17:58.640
No, I heal.

1340
01:18:01.200 --> 01:18:07.400
Like you're speaking healing power over her like she heals quickly because you speak life over her. And then I realized

1341
01:18:08.880 --> 01:18:09.800
The final option.

1342
01:18:09.800 --> 01:18:19.800
Yeah, I'm trying to think I have prayed over her because she was abused before I got her. So I have prayed over her and she's healed tremendously as a result and of

1343
01:18:20.800 --> 01:18:33.800
Not being so afraid of people and dogs, even before she went to a beating school. I mean, she made the largest transformation just by me praying and but but yeah, she doesn't

1344
01:18:34.800 --> 01:18:35.240
Does feel

1345
01:18:35.240 --> 01:18:37.640
She has killed. Absolutely. But yeah.

1346
01:18:39.040 --> 01:18:55.240
Well, it's good to get to visit with everybody and I'm trying to think next week. Okay, this is very interesting. So I was supposed to head out to start traveling next week that fell through the last minute.

1347
01:18:55.240 --> 01:19:12.240
Because the lady that I was supposed to my friend of mine that I was supposed to go visit. She's been sick. The past several days, she told me. And so she thought, um, I'm in the hot spot in Texas for the virus. So let me go get myself tested. She tested positive.

1348
01:19:13.240 --> 01:19:26.240
So, um, I won't be won't be able to visit her until maybe August or something like that. So I think the first place I'll go is either Arkansas or Louisiana and then I'll and then I'll come back here for a

1349
01:19:26.240 --> 01:19:35.240
Healing conference and then heading out on my longer journey. So anyway, that is my update. So I plan to still be here in DFW for next week.

1350
01:19:35.240 --> 01:19:40.240
That was just a plan that just recently happened. So, anyway.

1351
01:20:00.000 --> 01:20:06.880
Okay, but I might be in a different room. So you might have a different background, other than the door.

1352
01:20:09.400 --> 01:20:12.800
Is Rafi I might be with my brother and sister in law.

1353
01:20:14.040 --> 01:20:25.280
Well, it's good to get to see everybody y'all make sure to reach out if y'all have anything. I have some of y'all that are reaching out online Marco Polo and letting me know. And, you know, we always in the middle of struggling with something.

1354
01:20:25.760 --> 01:20:36.640
And and I've had some of those this week come through. And so I always love getting to visit with y'all. Don't forget, if you get a chance to post in the group and

1355
01:20:37.440 --> 01:20:41.840
You know, even though those of you who who passed the four weeks just to

1356
01:20:42.720 --> 01:20:50.360
You know, kind of, you know, like what Carrie did give an update give encouragement of, hey, look, this is what it looks like. Because you remember that so few of us.

1357
01:20:50.720 --> 01:21:01.680
Are actually walking out this this journey and we hope more people will as they're hearing the same message from their father, like we are at how we can move into rest that and so if everybody had a chance.

1358
01:21:02.040 --> 01:21:11.680
You know, you can just talk about and you can be real and just say, oh, I'm in the middle of this or that or the other, or God's been showing me this that or the other, or

1359
01:21:12.040 --> 01:21:17.800
Hey, here's, here's a really encouraging testimony that I wanted to share. So anyway, I was looking to hear him.

1360
01:21:19.040 --> 01:21:21.440
Well, I will see y'all later. Y'all have a good night.

1361
