- 00:25:03.820 --> 00:25:04.054

- To this right now i just want to say and i'm like no and
- 00:25:15.465 --> 00:25:18.501
- To say and i'm like no and god's like yeah because even
- 00:25:18.635 --> 00:25:19.236
- God's like yeah because even the thing that we run from we
- 00:25:19.369 --> 00:25:22.038
- The thing that we run from we are sometimes called to.
- 00:25:22.172 --> 00:25:22.672

- End up in ministry and preaching all over the world my
- 00:25:26.910 --> 00:25:27.544

- I just realized my life is better in god's hands.
- 00:25:34.050 --> 00:25:34.517
- Better in god's hands. i've had the opportunity to do
- 00:25:34.651 --> 00:25:37.520
- I've had the opportunity to do things i would have never even
- 00:25:37.654 --> 00:25:38.255
- Things i would have never even been brave enough to dream just
- 00:25:38.388 --> 00:25:39.022
- Been brave enough to dream just because said yes and in the
- 00:25:39.155 --> 00:25:41.892
- Because said yes and in the moment i had no idea what i was
- 00:25:42.025 --> 00:25:42.692
- Moment i had no idea what i was actually saying.
- 00:25:42.826 --> 00:25:43.159
- Actually saying. yes to.
- 00:25:43.293 --> 00:25:45.528
- Yes to. so it's not about the things
- 00:25:45.662 --> 00:25:46.363
- So it's not about the things i've experienced.
- 00:25:46.496 --> 00:25:46.863
- I've experienced. it's about the fact that i got
- 00:25:46.997 --> 00:25:47.597
- It's about the fact that i got to meet a god that i learned
- 00:25:47.731 --> 00:25:49.532
- To meet a god that i learned about growing up and now he's a
- 00:25:49.666 --> 00:25:50.300
- About growing up and now he's a real to me and we have that's
- 00:25:50.433 --> 00:25:52.936
- Real to me and we have that's solid.
- 00:25:53.069 --> 00:25:53.236
- Solid. >> there's a trust factor in
- 00:25:53.370 --> 00:25:54.104

- >> that's a great question. i think that god calls us into
- 00:26:09.719 --> 00:26:12.188
- I think that god calls us into things that require us to
- 00:26:12.322 --> 00:26:12.923
- Things that require us to depend on him.
- 00:26:13.056 --> 00:26:15.859
- Depend on him. i wouldn't stretch myself
- 00:26:15.992 --> 00:26:16.526
- I wouldn't stretch myself beyond my comfort ability.
- 00:26:16.660 --> 00:26:19.963
- Beyond my comfort ability. i want to be safe.
- 00:26:20.096 --> 00:26:20.630
- I want to be safe. i want to know.
- 00:26:20.764 --> 00:26:21.131
- I want to know. and so i think that's how i
- 00:26:21.264 --> 00:26:23.199
- And so i think that's how i decipher it.
- 00:26:23.333 --> 00:26:23.600
- Decipher it. it's like if this thing is so
- 00:26:23.733 --> 00:26:24.401
- It's like if this thing is so much bigger than me it requires
- 00:26:24.534 --> 00:26:27.370
- Much bigger than me it requires to depend on the lord.
- 00:26:27.504 --> 00:26:28.004
- To depend on the lord. >> i know this is god when so
- 00:26:28.138 --> 00:26:30.707
- >> i know this is god when so much scary.
- 00:26:30.840 --> 00:26:31.107
- Much scary. >> i mean what you're saying is
- 00:26:31.241 --> 00:26:31.975
- >> i mean what you're saying is scary.
- 00:26:32.108 --> 00:26:32.275
- Scary. it's like leaping the cliff not
- 00:26:32.409 --> 00:26:34.844
- It's like leaping the cliff not knowing who's going to catch
- 00:26:34.978 --> 00:26:35.545
- Knowing who's going to catch you at the bottom.
- 00:26:35.679 --> 00:26:36.079
- You at the bottom. well, you do know who's going
- 00:26:36.212 --> 00:26:38.281
- Well, you do know who's going to catch you but trusting that
- 00:26:38.415 --> 00:26:39.082
- To catch you but trusting that he will.
- 00:26:39.215 --> 00:26:39.416
- He will. how did you overcome the fear
- 00:26:39.549 --> 00:26:40.150
- How did you overcome the fear factor that.
- 00:26:40.283 --> 00:26:41.985
- Factor that. i think i'm more afraid of not
- 00:26:42.118 --> 00:26:42.852
- I think i'm more afraid of not following god then taking a
- 00:26:42.986 --> 00:26:45.822
- Following god then taking a step into the unknown with him.
- 00:26:45.956 --> 00:26:46.589
- Step into the unknown with him. there's a certain covering that
- 00:26:46.723 --> 00:26:47.357
- There's a certain covering that comes when god is calling me
- 00:26:47.490 --> 00:26:50.293
- Comes when god is calling me versus me staying back because
- 00:26:50.427 --> 00:26:51.027
- Versus me staying back because i'm afraid.
- 00:26:51.161 --> 00:26:53.763
- I'm afraid. and i've learned how how i've
- 00:26:53.897 --> 00:26:54.631
- And i've learned how how i've learned that of life when i
- 00:26:54.764 --> 00:26:58.201
- Learned that of life when i choose to not follow god.
- 00:26:58.335 --> 00:26:58.868
- Choose to not follow god. and so i'm more afraid of those
- 00:26:59.002 --> 00:27:02.238
- And so i'm more afraid of those consequences than i am to
- 00:27:02.372 --> 00:27:02.906
- Consequences than i am to stepping into the unknown with
- 00:27:03.039 --> 00:27:05.241
- Stepping into the unknown with a god who will never fail me.
- 00:27:05.375 --> 00:27:05.976
- A god who will never fail me. >> you know, ultimately i think
- 00:27:06.109 --> 00:27:06.843
- >> you know, ultimately i think god does this of us.
- 00:27:06.977 --> 00:27:09.713
- God does this of us. not everybody says yes to it
- 00:27:09.846 --> 00:27:10.647
- Not everybody says yes to it but my pattern is like here is
- 00:27:10.780 --> 00:27:13.650
- But my pattern is like here is i moved to l.a. and was
- 00:27:13.783 --> 00:27:16.720
- I moved to l.a. and was embarked on this thing i was
- 00:27:16.853 --> 00:27:17.420
- Embarked on this thing i was doing and then took me away
- 00:27:17.554 --> 00:27:20.623
- Doing and then took me away from the very thing i had spent
- 00:27:20.757 --> 00:27:21.391
- From the very thing i had spent my life preparing for and
- 00:27:21.524 --> 00:27:22.125
- My life preparing for and thought wanted to do.
- 00:27:22.258 --> 00:27:24.694
- Thought wanted to do. and i look back at that and i
- 00:27:24.828 --> 00:27:25.662
- And i look back at that and i think how much would have
- 00:27:25.795 --> 00:27:28.631
- Think how much would have missed man if i'd stayed there
- 00:27:28.765 --> 00:27:31.801
- Missed man if i'd stayed there ?
- 00:27:31.935 --> 00:27:32.035
- ? yes.
- 00:27:32.168 --> 00:27:32.302
- Yes. i think that is the amazing
- 00:27:32.435 --> 00:27:33.003
- I think that is the amazing thing about god.
- 00:27:33.136 --> 00:27:33.503
- Thing about god. he's like you think you know.
- 00:27:33.636 --> 00:27:36.473
- He's like you think you know. yes.
- 00:27:36.606 --> 00:27:36.740
- Yes. but what i'm in like whatever
- 00:27:36.873 --> 00:27:37.640
- But what i'm in like whatever god asked me to walk away from
- 00:27:37.774 --> 00:27:40.844
- God asked me to walk away from this is all it will ever be but
- 00:27:40.977 --> 00:27:41.644
- This is all it will ever be but a step.
- 00:27:41.778 --> 00:27:41.978
- A step. a step towards god.
- 00:27:43.079 --> 00:27:43.680
- A step towards god. it gives him the ability to
- 00:27:43.813 --> 00:27:44.647
- It gives him the ability to expand we could have even
- 00:27:44.781 --> 00:27:47.917
- Expand we could have even dreamed of and i think the same
- 00:27:48.051 --> 00:27:48.685
- Dreamed of and i think the same thing i'm like i've in rooms
- 00:27:48.818 --> 00:27:51.121
- Thing i'm like i've in rooms that i would have it probably
- 00:27:51.254 --> 00:27:51.855
- That i would have it probably still would take me ten years
- 00:27:51.988 --> 00:27:52.589
- Still would take me ten years from now to get that god's
- 00:27:52.722 --> 00:27:55.091
- From now to get that god's grace me to go in because now i
- 00:27:55.225 --> 00:27:55.992
- Grace me to go in because now i have the understanding that i'm
- 00:27:56.126 --> 00:27:56.726
- Have the understanding that i'm in that room for the glory of
- 00:27:56.860 --> 00:27:58.962
- In that room for the glory of god and to do whatever he needs
- 00:27:59.095 --> 00:27:59.763
- God and to do whatever he needs me to do not build own career.
- 00:27:59.896 --> 00:28:02.499
- Me to do not build own career. >> you know, it's it's scary to
- 00:28:02.632 --> 00:28:03.400
- >> you know, it's it's scary to let go of that are familiar to
- 00:28:03.533 --> 00:28:06.269
- Let go of that are familiar to us or that our dreams that held
- 00:28:06.403 --> 00:28:09.806
- Us or that our dreams that held for ourselves.
- 00:28:09.939 --> 00:28:10.273
- For ourselves. but there's an adventure factor
- 00:28:10.407 --> 00:28:11.041
- But there's an adventure factor in all this that is very
- 00:28:11.174 --> 00:28:14.177
- In all this that is very exciting actually because every
- 00:28:14.310 --> 00:28:17.714
- Exciting actually because every is a fresh new slate.
- 00:28:17.847 --> 00:28:18.481
- Is a fresh new slate. has that proven true for you
- 00:28:18.615 --> 00:28:21.551
- Has that proven true for you yes.
- 00:28:21.684 --> 00:28:21.818
- Yes. absolutely.
- 00:28:21.951 --> 00:28:22.218
- Absolutely. i feel like every day is that's
- 00:28:22.352 --> 00:28:23.019
- I feel like every day is that's why i call it in every day
- 00:28:23.153 --> 00:28:25.822
- Why i call it in every day adventure because i feel like i
- 00:28:25.955 --> 00:28:26.589
- Adventure because i feel like i get to wake up and instead of
- 00:28:26.723 --> 00:28:27.424
- Get to wake up and instead of like having my day planned out
- 00:28:27.557 --> 00:28:30.093
- Like having my day planned out it's like okay god, what do you
- 00:28:30.226 --> 00:28:30.894
- It's like okay god, what do you want to do with this day and
- 00:28:31.027 --> 00:28:31.628
- Want to do with this day and how do you to move?
- 00:28:31.761 --> 00:28:33.830
- How do you to move? where do we want to go?
- 00:28:33.963 --> 00:28:34.531
- Where do we want to go? and i feel like yeah, i could
- 00:28:34.664 --> 00:28:35.532
- And i feel like yeah, i could have dreamed of all the things
- 00:28:35.665 --> 00:28:37.500
- Have dreamed of all the things i've gotten the opportunity to
- 00:28:37.634 --> 00:28:38.234
- I've gotten the opportunity to do.
- 00:28:38.368 --> 00:28:38.501
- Do. >> you know they're in
- 00:28:38.635 --> 00:28:40.970
- >> you know they're in relationships.
- 00:28:41.104 --> 00:28:41.404
- Relationships. there's usually a learning
- 00:28:41.538 --> 00:28:42.072
- There's usually a learning capacity and all of that you're
- 00:28:42.205 --> 00:28:44.808
- Capacity and all of that you're learning about the other
- 00:28:44.941 --> 00:28:45.408
- Learning about the other person.
- 00:28:45.542 --> 00:28:45.742
- Person. you're learning about yourself
- 00:28:45.875 --> 00:28:46.476
- You're learning about yourself in the process have you ever
- 00:28:46.609 --> 00:28:48.945
- In the process have you ever made a mistake in all of that
- 00:28:49.079 --> 00:28:49.712
- Made a mistake in all of that all the time.
- 00:28:49.846 --> 00:28:52.348
- All the time. >> i think sometimes when you
- 00:28:52.482 --> 00:28:53.216
- >> i think sometimes when you get a you feel like okay god, i
- 00:28:53.349 --> 00:28:56.586
- Get a you feel like okay god, i got it.
- 00:28:56.719 --> 00:28:56.920
- Got it. >> thank you for getting me
- 00:28:57.053 --> 00:28:57.787
- >> thank you for getting me this but i got it and then we
- 00:28:57.921 --> 00:29:00.457
- This but i got it and then we try to figure it out on our own
- 00:29:00.590 --> 00:29:04.661
- Try to figure it out on our own and then i go oh actually i
- 00:29:04.794 --> 00:29:05.395
- And then i go oh actually i don't have it.
- 00:29:05.528 --> 00:29:05.862
- Don't have it. yeah, it's me.
- 00:29:05.995 --> 00:29:06.329
- Yeah, it's me. yes.
- 00:29:06.463 --> 00:29:07.630
- Yes. >> and that even happened to me
- 00:29:07.764 --> 00:29:08.565
- >> and that even happened to me this week.
- 00:29:08.698 --> 00:29:08.932
- This week. i felt like god told me to step
- 00:29:09.065 --> 00:29:09.766
- I felt like god told me to step into something and i did but i
- 00:29:09.899 --> 00:29:11.167
- Into something and i did but i didn't ask him how.
- 00:29:11.301 --> 00:29:11.701
- Didn't ask him how. or the pacing or the timing or
- 00:29:11.835 --> 00:29:16.306
- Or the pacing or the timing or do i to take him with you got
- 00:29:16.439 --> 00:29:17.273
- Do i to take him with you got to take him not it's not just i
- 00:29:17.407 --> 00:29:19.542
- To take him not it's not just i don't want the overview.
- 00:29:19.676 --> 00:29:20.176
- Don't want the overview. i want the present every every
- 00:29:20.310 --> 00:29:22.846
- I want the present every every second, every minute and so i
- 00:29:22.979 --> 00:29:23.580
- Second, every minute and so i think i tend to ahead of myself
- 00:29:23.713 --> 00:29:27.383
- Think i tend to ahead of myself and so i realize it's why god
- 00:29:27.517 --> 00:29:28.118
- And so i realize it's why god always rolls me back and say
- 00:29:28.251 --> 00:29:30.286
- Always rolls me back and say okay, i'm the source you got to
- 00:29:30.420 --> 00:29:31.254
- Okay, i'm the source you got to come to me for all the things
- 00:29:31.387 --> 00:29:34.124
- Come to me for all the things even though god created to do
- 00:29:34.257 --> 00:29:38.094
- Even though god created to do that rules us into that there
- 00:29:38.228 --> 00:29:38.828
- That rules us into that there are consequences to saying yes
- 00:29:38.962 --> 00:29:42.198
- Are consequences to saying yes i mean you wouldn't you
- 00:29:42.332 --> 00:29:42.832
- I mean you wouldn't you wouldn't be honest if you
- 00:29:42.966 --> 00:29:43.500
- Wouldn't be honest if you didn't say.
- 00:29:43.633 --> 00:29:46.035
- Didn't say. >> there's a price sometimes to
- 00:29:46.169 --> 00:29:46.903
- >> there's a price sometimes to pay.
- 00:29:47.036 --> 00:29:47.170
- Pay. talk a little about that for.
- 00:29:47.303 --> 00:29:49.439
- Talk a little about that for. for me a lot of times sometimes
- 00:29:49.572 --> 00:29:50.373
- For me a lot of times sometimes it's alienating because
- 00:29:50.507 --> 00:29:52.842
- It's alienating because everybody doesn't understand
- 00:29:52.976 --> 00:29:53.543
- Everybody doesn't understand like quitting my job to go into
- 00:29:53.676 --> 00:29:56.646
- Like quitting my job to go into the unknown is crazy.
- 00:29:56.779 --> 00:29:57.247
- The unknown is crazy. my parents are like we we sent
- 00:29:57.380 --> 00:30:01.384
- My parents are like we we sent you to college.
- 00:30:01.518 --> 00:30:01.885
- You to college. >> you have a love for god but
- 00:30:02.018 --> 00:30:02.785
- >> you have a love for god but they love god.
- 00:30:02.919 --> 00:30:03.987
- They love god. but this is not making sense.
- 00:30:04.120 --> 00:30:04.954
- But this is not making sense. is that part?
- 00:30:07.123 --> 00:30:07.690
- Is that part? and then i think there is also
- 00:30:07.824 --> 00:30:08.558
- And then i think there is also like man sometimes it's hard
- 00:30:08.691 --> 00:30:11.127
- Like man sometimes it's hard when you don't know where the
- 00:30:11.261 --> 00:30:11.828
- When you don't know where the next check is coming from and
- 00:30:11.961 --> 00:30:12.562
- Next check is coming from and you just have to believe that
- 00:30:12.695 --> 00:30:14.898
- You just have to believe that god is going to provide.
- 00:30:15.031 --> 00:30:15.565
- God is going to provide. it's a hard space to live in in
- 00:30:15.698 --> 00:30:16.466
- It's a hard space to live in in the natural like god i know you
- 00:30:16.599 --> 00:30:19.536
- The natural like god i know you live outside of time but in
- 00:30:19.669 --> 00:30:20.236
- Live outside of time but in this time yeah i need this bill
- 00:30:20.370 --> 00:30:22.772
- This time yeah i need this bill paid yeah and so like trying to
- 00:30:22.906 --> 00:30:23.573
- Paid yeah and so like trying to find balance in i know god's
- 00:30:23.706 --> 00:30:26.776
- Find balance in i know god's going to make a way but right
- 00:30:26.910 --> 00:30:27.510
- Going to make a way but right now this is hard and i think i
- 00:30:27.644 --> 00:30:28.578
- Now this is hard and i think i vacillate between the two.
- 00:30:28.711 --> 00:30:30.613
- Vacillate between the two. >> well also i think seasons of
- 00:30:30.747 --> 00:30:31.481
- >> well also i think seasons of waiting exist for all of us and
- 00:30:31.614 --> 00:30:34.551
- Waiting exist for all of us and it's one thing to trust when
- 00:30:34.684 --> 00:30:35.251
- It's one thing to trust when things are moving and you can
- 00:30:35.385 --> 00:30:38.154
- Things are moving and you can kind of feel feel the rhythm
- 00:30:38.288 --> 00:30:38.888
- Kind of feel feel the rhythm you're talking about but then
- 00:30:39.022 --> 00:30:39.589
- You're talking about but then there's the waiting season
- 00:30:39.722 --> 00:30:42.458
- There's the waiting season which is a challenge very much
- 00:30:42.592 --> 00:30:45.595
- Which is a challenge very much i'm in one right now i'm single
- 00:30:45.728 --> 00:30:46.362
- I'm in one right now i'm single and i'm waiting on the lord to
