- >> welcome to our thursday's
- 00:00:31.488 --> 00:00:32.589
- Broadcast of the gospel truth.
- 00:00:32.589 --> 00:00:34.724
- Today i'm nearing the end of
- 00:00:34.724 --> 00:00:36.326
- My second week, teaching on
- 00:00:36.326 --> 00:00:37.994
- Harnessing your emotions.
- 00:00:37.994 --> 00:00:39.796
- And i tell you, i wrote a book
- 00:00:39.796 --> 00:00:41.431
- On this about 30 years ago.
- 00:00:41.431 --> 00:00:43.399
- This is a powerful teaching.
- 00:00:43.399 --> 00:00:45.335
- And emotions are more
- 00:00:45.335 --> 00:00:47.570
- Than just a feeling. it actually
- 00:00:47.637 --> 00:00:49.839
- Than just a feeling. it actually is a driving force in our life.
- 00:00:49.906 --> 00:00:52.075
- Is a driving force in our life. and sad to say, most people
- 00:00:52.142 --> 00:00:53.610
- And sad to say, most people let their emotions be completely
- 00:00:53.676 --> 00:00:55.612
- Let their emotions be completely controlled by what's happening
- 00:00:55.678 --> 00:00:57.814
- Controlled by what's happening to them out there. and if you do
- 00:00:57.881 --> 00:00:59.849
- To them out there. and if you do that, you are going to be an
- 00:00:59.916 --> 00:01:01.584
- That, you are going to be an emotional wreck. and that
- 00:01:01.651 --> 00:01:04.087
- Emotional wreck. and that is not just a play on words,
- 00:01:04.154 --> 00:01:06.489
- Is not just a play on words, that is an ash... actual truth.
- 00:01:06.556 --> 00:01:09.159
- That is an ash... actual truth. emotions are the best of life
- 00:01:09.225 --> 00:01:10.927
- Emotions are the best of life and the worst of life if you
- 00:01:10.994 --> 00:01:12.462
- And the worst of life if you let them get out of control.
- 00:01:12.529 --> 00:01:14.497
- Let them get out of control. emotions serve a purpose. they
- 00:01:14.564 --> 00:01:16.766
- Emotions serve a purpose. they are given to us by god. and
- 00:01:16.833 --> 00:01:18.268
- Are given to us by god. and even negative emotions have a
- 00:01:18.334 --> 00:01:19.936
- Even negative emotions have a function. and it shows you that
- 00:01:20.003 --> 00:01:22.005
- Function. and it shows you that when you begin to start taking
- 00:01:22.071 --> 00:01:23.907
- When you begin to start taking your attention off of jesus and
- 00:01:23.973 --> 00:01:26.342
- Your attention off of jesus and you begin to start feeling fear,
- 00:01:26.409 --> 00:01:28.144
- You begin to start feeling fear, worry, care, things like that,
- 00:01:28.211 --> 00:01:31.247
- Worry, care, things like that, that is an indication to you
- 00:01:31.314 --> 00:01:33.116
- That is an indication to you that you need to refocus and put
- 00:01:33.183 --> 00:01:35.385
- That you need to refocus and put your attention upon the lord.
- 00:01:35.451 --> 00:01:36.986
- Your attention upon the lord. it's just like peter walking on
- 00:01:37.053 --> 00:01:38.988
- It's just like peter walking on the water. as long as he focused
- 00:01:39.055 --> 00:01:40.590
- The water. as long as he focused on jesus... this is out of
- 00:01:40.657 --> 00:01:41.758
- On jesus... this is out of matthew, chapter 14, he could
- 00:01:41.824 --> 00:01:43.860
- Matthew, chapter 14, he could walk on water, but when he took
- 00:01:43.927 --> 00:01:45.361
- Walk on water, but when he took his attention off of jesus, he
- 00:01:45.428 --> 00:01:46.729
- His attention off of jesus, he began to sink. he let the things
- 00:01:46.796 --> 00:01:49.265
- Began to sink. he let the things that were going on around him
- 00:01:49.332 --> 00:01:50.633
- That were going on around him bring fear to him. and he had
- 00:01:50.700 --> 00:01:53.536
- Bring fear to him. and he had negative thoughts, negative
- 00:01:53.603 --> 00:01:55.271
- Negative thoughts, negative emotions, and he began to sink.
- 00:01:55.338 --> 00:01:57.207
- Emotions, and he began to sink. this is what emotions are all
- 00:01:57.273 --> 00:01:58.841
- This is what emotions are all about. god gave us the ability
- 00:01:58.908 --> 00:02:01.444
- About. god gave us the ability to be depressed and discouraged
- 00:02:01.511 --> 00:02:04.113
- To be depressed and discouraged and fearful. did you know they
- 00:02:04.180 --> 00:02:05.381
- And fearful. did you know they serve a purpose? you should be
- 00:02:05.448 --> 00:02:07.383
- Serve a purpose? you should be afraid, if you know, like you're
- 00:02:07.450 --> 00:02:08.918
- Afraid, if you know, like you're in an airplane and somehow or
- 00:02:08.985 --> 00:02:11.221
- In an airplane and somehow or another somebody's threatening
- 00:02:11.287 --> 00:02:12.889
- Another somebody's threatening to throw you out of the
- 00:02:12.956 --> 00:02:13.823
- To throw you out of the airplane, there should be an
- 00:02:13.890 --> 00:02:14.958
- Airplane, there should be an emotion of fear, because that is
- 00:02:15.024 --> 00:02:16.659
- Emotion of fear, because that is not a good thing. but you can
- 00:02:16.726 --> 00:02:19.062
- Not a good thing. but you can let fear just dominate you.
- 00:02:19.128 --> 00:02:21.064
- Let fear just dominate you. there are some people that have
- 00:02:21.130 --> 00:02:22.232
- There are some people that have a fear of heights that even when
- 00:02:22.298 --> 00:02:23.533
- A fear of heights that even when they aren't in an airplane,
- 00:02:23.600 --> 00:02:24.667
- They aren't in an airplane, just, you know, in other things,
- 00:02:24.734 --> 00:02:26.502
- Just, you know, in other things, they let this fear go to an
- 00:02:26.569 --> 00:02:28.137
- They let this fear go to an extreme. and sad to say, most
- 00:02:28.204 --> 00:02:30.773
- Extreme. and sad to say, most people are living to where
- 00:02:30.840 --> 00:02:32.308
- People are living to where their emotions have gone way
- 00:02:32.375 --> 00:02:34.110
- Their emotions have gone way beyond what god intended
- 00:02:34.177 --> 00:02:35.678
- Beyond what god intended them to function as, and
- 00:02:35.745 --> 00:02:37.580
- Them to function as, and they are dominated by hurt,
- 00:02:37.647 --> 00:02:40.116
- They are dominated by hurt, by pain, anger, bitterness,
- 00:02:40.183 --> 00:02:41.985
- By pain, anger, bitterness, unforgiveness, and on and on.
- 00:02:42.051 --> 00:02:44.020
- Unforgiveness, and on and on. you have to grab hold of those
- 00:02:44.087 --> 00:02:46.089
- You have to grab hold of those emotions. and i've shared
- 00:02:46.155 --> 00:02:47.690
- Emotions. and i've shared scripture about how that
- 00:02:47.757 --> 00:02:48.858
- Scripture about how that emotions are where sin is
- 00:02:48.925 --> 00:02:51.127
- Emotions are where sin is conceived in your life. let me
- 00:02:51.194 --> 00:02:53.263
- Conceived in your life. let me use these verses out of isaiah,
- 00:02:53.329 --> 00:02:54.998
- Use these verses out of isaiah, chapter 53. and for anybody
- 00:02:55.064 --> 00:02:57.400
- Chapter 53. and for anybody who's really familiar with
- 00:02:57.467 --> 00:02:58.768
- Who's really familiar with scripture, you will recognize
- 00:02:58.835 --> 00:03:00.670
- Scripture, you will recognize immediately that these are
- 00:03:00.737 --> 00:03:01.971
- Immediately that these are prophetic scriptures, talking
- 00:03:02.038 --> 00:03:03.473
- Prophetic scriptures, talking about jesus and what he would do
- 00:03:03.539 --> 00:03:05.775
- About jesus and what he would do for us through his death and
- 00:03:05.842 --> 00:03:07.443
- For us through his death and resurrection. and let me just
- 00:03:07.510 --> 00:03:09.612
- Start reading in isaiah, chapter
- 00:03:09.679 --> 00:03:11.481
- Start reading in isaiah, chapter 53, and in verse 3. it says, he,
- 00:03:11.547 --> 00:03:14.484
- 53, and in verse 3. it says, he, speaking of jesus, is despised
- 00:03:14.550 --> 00:03:17.253
- Speaking of jesus, is despised and rejected of men. why was
- 00:03:17.320 --> 00:03:19.656
- Jesus despised and rejected? it
- 00:03:19.722 --> 00:03:22.292
- Jesus despised and rejected? it wasn't because of his own self.
- 00:03:22.358 --> 00:03:24.394
- Wasn't because of his own self. he didn't suffer those things
- 00:03:24.460 --> 00:03:26.262
- He didn't suffer those things because of his own sin. he bore
- 00:03:26.329 --> 00:03:28.598
- Because of his own sin. he bore our being despised and rejected.
- 00:03:28.665 --> 00:03:32.402
- Our being despised and rejected. everything that he did was
- 00:03:32.468 --> 00:03:33.703
- Everything that he did was substitutionary for us. and
- 00:03:33.770 --> 00:03:36.472
- Substitutionary for us. and so if he did this for us,
- 00:03:36.539 --> 00:03:38.107
- So if he did this for us, well then we shouldn't
- 00:03:38.174 --> 00:03:39.108
- Well then we shouldn't have to bear it either.
- 00:03:39.175 --> 00:03:40.276
- So remember, he was despised
- 00:03:40.343 --> 00:03:42.211
- So remember, he was despised and rejected of men; a man
- 00:03:42.278 --> 00:03:43.846
- And rejected of men; a man of sorrows, and acquainted
- 00:03:43.913 --> 00:03:45.481
- Of sorrows, and acquainted with grief: and we hid as it
- 00:03:45.548 --> 00:03:47.650
- With grief: and we hid as it were our faces from him; he was
- 00:03:47.717 --> 00:03:49.285
- Were our faces from him; he was despised, and we esteemed him
- 00:03:49.352 --> 00:03:51.654
- Despised, and we esteemed him not. surely he hath borne our
- 00:03:51.721 --> 00:03:54.223
- Not. surely he hath borne our griefs, and carried our sorrows.
- 00:03:54.290 --> 00:03:57.226
- Griefs, and carried our sorrows. he was bruised for our
- 00:03:57.293 --> 00:03:59.062
- He was bruised for our iniquities, and the chastisement
- 00:03:59.128 --> 00:04:01.597
- Iniquities, and the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and
- 00:04:01.664 --> 00:04:03.966
- Of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed.
- 00:04:04.033 --> 00:04:07.537
- Did you know some people will
- 00:04:07.603 --> 00:04:09.605
- Did you know some people will take the last part of that
- 00:04:09.672 --> 00:04:11.274
- Take the last part of that and... and say that we are
- 00:04:11.341 --> 00:04:12.809
- And... and say that we are healed by his stripes, and
- 00:04:12.875 --> 00:04:14.344
- Healed by his stripes, and so they believe in healing,
- 00:04:14.410 --> 00:04:15.878
- So they believe in healing, and i certainly believe in
- 00:04:15.945 --> 00:04:17.380
- And i certainly believe in healing, but then they
- 00:04:17.447 --> 00:04:18.614
- Healing, but then they ignore the rest of this
- 00:04:18.681 --> 00:04:19.816
- Ignore the rest of this verse. in the same way that,
- 00:04:19.882 --> 00:04:21.918
- Verse. in the same way that, by his stripes we are healed,
- 00:04:21.984 --> 00:04:24.320
- We also have had him bear our
- 00:04:24.387 --> 00:04:27.056
- We also have had him bear our sorrows and carry our griefs,
- 00:04:27.123 --> 00:04:30.326
- Sorrows and carry our griefs, and he was smitten and stricken
- 00:04:30.393 --> 00:04:34.030
- And he was smitten and stricken and afflicted for us. so not
- 00:04:34.097 --> 00:04:36.799
- Only is our physical bodies
- 00:04:36.866 --> 00:04:38.901
- Only is our physical bodies healed by the stripes of jesus,
- 00:04:38.968 --> 00:04:40.770
- Healed by the stripes of jesus, but he bore our griefs and
- 00:04:40.837 --> 00:04:42.138
- But he bore our griefs and carried our sorrows. if jesus
- 00:04:42.205 --> 00:04:44.173
- Carried our sorrows. if jesus bore our griefs and sorrows, why
- 00:04:44.240 --> 00:04:45.942
- Bore our griefs and sorrows, why are we bearing them? and again,
- 00:04:46.008 --> 00:04:49.278
- Are we bearing them? and again, i know that there's people
- 00:04:49.345 --> 00:04:50.213
- I know that there's people watching this that think, well
- 00:04:50.279 --> 00:04:51.314
- Watching this that think, well i'm bearing them because this
- 00:04:51.381 --> 00:04:52.348
- I'm bearing them because this person did that, and you feel
- 00:04:52.415 --> 00:04:53.850
- Person did that, and you feel like you just have no control
- 00:04:53.916 --> 00:04:55.551
- Like you just have no control over it. this person treated you
- 00:04:55.618 --> 00:04:57.553
- Over it. this person treated you badly, this person divorced you,
- 00:04:57.620 --> 00:04:59.288
- Badly, this person divorced you, this person lied about you, this
- 00:04:59.355 --> 00:05:01.324
- This person lied about you, this person did this, and so you're
- 00:05:01.391 --> 00:05:03.259
- Person did this, and so you're going to be limping through life
- 00:05:03.326 --> 00:05:05.895
- Going to be limping through life the rest of your life bearing
- 00:05:05.962 --> 00:05:07.563
- The rest of your life bearing those things. i can understand
- 00:05:07.630 --> 00:05:10.466
- Those things. i can understand that. i'm not condemning you,
- 00:05:10.533 --> 00:05:12.702
- That. i'm not condemning you, but i am encouraging you that
- 00:05:12.769 --> 00:05:14.771
- But i am encouraging you that you do not have to live that
- 00:05:14.837 --> 00:05:16.706
- You do not have to live that way. jesus suffered; whatever
- 00:05:16.773 --> 00:05:18.941
- Way. jesus suffered; whatever rejection, whatever hurt and
- 00:05:19.008 --> 00:05:20.610
- Rejection, whatever hurt and pain has ever come your way,
- 00:05:20.676 --> 00:05:23.646
- Pain has ever come your way, jesus took what you have coming
- 00:05:23.713 --> 00:05:26.783
- Jesus took what you have coming against you right now, and he
- 00:05:26.849 --> 00:05:28.518
- Against you right now, and he experienced that in his own
- 00:05:28.584 --> 00:05:29.886
- Experienced that in his own body and in his soul and in his
- 00:05:29.952 --> 00:05:32.622
- Body and in his soul and in his emotions. he's... he felt all of
- 00:05:32.688 --> 00:05:34.991
- Emotions. he's... he felt all of the rejection, all of the hurt
- 00:05:35.057 --> 00:05:37.226
- The rejection, all of the hurt and all of the pain. anything
- 00:05:37.293 --> 00:05:39.662
- And all of the pain. anything that you're going through,
- 00:05:39.729 --> 00:05:40.496
- That you're going through, jesus has already borne it. and
- 00:05:40.563 --> 00:05:42.465
- Jesus has already borne it. and why did he do it? because he
- 00:05:42.532 --> 00:05:43.800
- Why did he do it? because he deserved it? no, he did it for
- 00:05:43.866 --> 00:05:45.435
- Deserved it? no, he did it for you. he took your and my hurts
- 00:05:45.501 --> 00:05:47.570
- You. he took your and my hurts and pains. and if jesus has
- 00:05:47.637 --> 00:05:49.739
- And pains. and if jesus has already suffered this, then
- 00:05:49.806 --> 00:05:51.240
- Already suffered this, then there's no reason in both
- 00:05:51.307 --> 00:05:52.542
- There's no reason in both of us suffering. that's double
- 00:05:52.608 --> 00:05:54.143
- Of us suffering. that's double jeopardy. jesus suffered things
- 00:05:54.210 --> 00:05:56.746
- Jeopardy. jesus suffered things so that you and i would not have
- 00:05:56.813 --> 00:05:58.247

- World does. there is a godly type of sorrow, but that...
- 00:06:05.822 --> 00:06:06.989
- Type of sorrow, but that... but it's more descriptive
- 00:06:07.056 --> 00:06:08.491
- But it's more descriptive actually of compassion. you see
- 00:06:08.558 --> 00:06:10.126
- Actually of compassion. you see somebody suffering and you feel
- 00:06:10.193 --> 00:06:12.195
- Somebody suffering and you feel compassion for them. you could
- 00:06:12.261 --> 00:06:14.230

- 00:06:14.297 --> 00:06:16.132

- 00:06:18.201 --> 00:06:19.836

- 00:06:19.902 --> 00:06:22.171
- Hurt, but you are empathizing and operating in sympathy for
- 00:06:22.238 --> 00:06:24.040
- And operating in sympathy for another person. for you to just
- 00:06:24.106 --> 00:06:26.075
- Another person. for you to just bear grief and for you to be

- Bear grief and for you to be brokenhearted and stuff, i
- 00:06:28.444 --> 00:06:30.680
- Brokenhearted and stuff, i don't believe that god wants
- 00:06:30.746 --> 00:06:32.148
- Don't believe that god wants us to live that way. he bore
- 00:06:32.215 --> 00:06:33.749

- Emotional realm. you can come to the lord, and he will take away
- 00:11:12.895 --> 00:11:14.363
- The lord, and he will take away that heavy burden and he will
- 00:11:14.430 --> 00:11:16.665
- That heavy burden and he will make your burden light. again,
- 00:11:16.732 --> 00:11:19.401
- Make your burden light. again, i'm not condemning any person
- 00:11:19.468 --> 00:11:21.704
- I'm not condemning any person who's suffering and struggling.
- 00:11:21.771 --> 00:11:24.440
- Who's suffering and struggling. i understand that that's normal,
- 00:11:24.507 --> 00:11:26.776
- I understand that that's normal, that's natural. but i am saying
- 00:11:26.842 --> 00:11:29.111
- That's natural. but i am saying that there is a supernatural
- 00:11:29.178 --> 00:11:31.013
- That there is a supernatural supply from god, and you do not
- 00:11:31.080 --> 00:11:33.382
- Supply from god, and you do not have to live under that burden.
- 00:11:33.449 --> 00:11:34.950
- You know, i had a very good
- 00:11:36.285 --> 00:11:37.286
- You know, i had a very good friend that lived not far from
- 00:11:37.353 --> 00:11:38.854
- Friend that lived not far from me. his wife worked for me. and
- 00:11:38.921 --> 00:11:42.391
- Me. his wife worked for me. and anyway, this... this wife, she
- 00:11:42.458 --> 00:11:45.728
- Anyway, this... this wife, she died of cancer. she was a chain
- 00:11:45.795 --> 00:11:48.364
- Died of cancer. she was a chain smoker, and she actually got
- 00:11:48.430 --> 00:11:51.133
- Smoker, and she actually got surgery done, had a tracheotomy
- 00:11:51.200 --> 00:11:53.502
- Surgery done, had a tracheotomy put in, and she would hold a
- 00:11:53.569 --> 00:11:55.437
- Put in, and she would hold a cigarette up to her trach and...
- 00:11:55.504 --> 00:11:58.174
- Cigarette up to her trach and... and smoke through that. and
- 00:11:58.240 --> 00:12:00.409
- And smoke through that. and anyway, i prayed with her, but
- 00:12:00.476 --> 00:12:02.411
- Anyway, i prayed with her, but becau... you know, there are
- 00:12:02.478 --> 00:12:03.679
- Becau... you know, there are consequences to your actions,
- 00:12:03.746 --> 00:12:05.781
- Consequences to your actions, and if you're smoking like that,
- 00:12:05.848 --> 00:12:07.349
- And if you're smoking like that, it's going to do... have an
- 00:12:07.416 --> 00:12:09.118
- It's going to do... have an effect on your lungs. and so
- 00:12:09.185 --> 00:12:10.553
- Effect on your lungs. and so this woman didn't receive her
- 00:12:10.619 --> 00:12:12.621
- This woman didn't receive her total healing. and i actually
- 00:12:12.688 --> 00:12:14.190
- Total healing. and i actually was with her the day that she
- 00:12:14.256 --> 00:12:15.624
- Was with her the day that she died. i went to the hospital.
- 00:12:15.691 --> 00:12:17.993
- Died. i went to the hospital. and i told them, i said, you
- 00:12:18.060 --> 00:12:19.361
- And i told them, i said, you know, we've prayed and we
- 00:12:19.428 --> 00:12:20.496
- Know, we've prayed and we believed for healing, but there
- 00:12:20.563 --> 00:12:22.031
- Believed for healing, but there are just consequences to your
- 00:12:22.097 --> 00:12:24.633
- Are just consequences to your actions. and i said, you've
- 00:12:24.700 --> 00:12:26.669
- Actions. and i said, you've destroyed your lungs, but i
- 00:12:26.735 --> 00:12:28.771
- Destroyed your lungs, but i said, you certainly don't have
- 00:12:28.838 --> 00:12:30.172
- Said, you certainly don't have to go out in pain. she was in so
- 00:12:30.239 --> 00:12:32.208
- To go out in pain. she was in so much pain that she could barely
- 00:12:32.274 --> 00:12:34.310
- Much pain that she could barely tolerate it. so i prayed with
- 00:12:34.376 --> 00:12:36.111
- Tolerate it. so i prayed with her, and i mean, immediately the
- 00:12:36.178 --> 00:12:37.913
- Her, and i mean, immediately the pain left and she was completely
- 00:12:37.980 --> 00:12:40.516
- Pain left and she was completely at ease. and i prayed with her,
- 00:12:40.583 --> 00:12:42.952
- At ease. and i prayed with her, and when i left the hotel...
- 00:12:43.018 --> 00:12:45.120
- And when i left the hotel... when i left the hospital room,
- 00:12:45.187 --> 00:12:46.856
- When i left the hospital room, she was rejoicing. and just
- 00:12:46.922 --> 00:12:48.257
- She was rejoicing. and just a few hours later, she just
- 00:12:48.324 --> 00:12:50.092
- A few hours later, she just passed, but she was totally
- 00:12:50.159 --> 00:12:51.861
- Passed, but she was totally out of pain. anyway, that's a
- 00:12:51.927 --> 00:12:53.929
- Out of pain. anyway, that's a separate story about why
- 00:12:53.996 --> 00:12:55.364
- Separate story about why all of that happened. but
- 00:12:55.431 --> 00:12:56.198
- All of that happened. but the point i was trying to
- 00:12:56.265 --> 00:12:57.099
- The point i was trying to bring up is that her husband
- 00:12:57.166 --> 00:12:59.335
- Bring up is that her husband just went into a tailspin. and
- 00:12:59.401 --> 00:13:01.704
- Just went into a tailspin. and they were so close. i mean, they
- 00:13:01.770 --> 00:13:03.505
- They were so close. i mean, they did everything together. and he,
- 00:13:03.572 --> 00:13:05.841
- Did everything together. and he, at her memorial service, he got
- 00:13:05.908 --> 00:13:07.710
- At her memorial service, he got up and sang this song that he
- 00:13:07.776 --> 00:13:09.411
- Up and sang this song that he would sing to her every day.
- 00:13:09.478 --> 00:13:11.580
- Would sing to her every day. they were just in love with each
- 00:13:11.647 --> 00:13:12.781
- They were just in love with each other. and he would sing this
- 00:13:12.848 --> 00:13:14.416
- Other. and he would sing this little romantic song to her
- 00:13:14.483 --> 00:13:16.352
- Little romantic song to her every day. and i mean, for six
- 00:13:16.418 --> 00:13:18.087
- Every day. and i mean, for six months or something like that,
- 00:13:18.153 --> 00:13:20.022
- Months or something like that, this guy was in a tailspin, and
- 00:13:20.089 --> 00:13:22.992
- This guy was in a tailspin, and everything that we did trying
- 00:13:23.058 --> 00:13:24.493
- Everything that we did trying to help him just didn't seem to
- 00:13:24.560 --> 00:13:26.395
- To help him just didn't seem to bring him out of it. and then
- 00:13:26.462 --> 00:13:28.664
- Bring him out of it. and then one day i went over to see him,
- 00:13:28.731 --> 00:13:30.799
- One day i went over to see him, and he was just rejoicing and
- 00:13:30.866 --> 00:13:32.668
- And he was just rejoicing and talking about how good god is.
- 00:13:32.735 --> 00:13:35.204
- Talking about how good god is. and i said, what happened to
- 00:13:35.271 --> 00:13:36.839
- And i said, what happened to you? and he says, i was just to
- 00:13:36.906 --> 00:13:39.441
- You? and he says, i was just to a place to where i couldn't live
- 00:13:39.508 --> 00:13:40.976
- A place to where i couldn't live the way i was living, and i went
- 00:13:41.043 --> 00:13:42.444
- The way i was living, and i went to the lord, and just like i'm
- 00:13:42.511 --> 00:13:44.213
- To the lord, and just like i'm talking about right here, he
- 00:13:44.280 --> 00:13:45.381
- Talking about right here, he just cast his care and he says,
- 00:13:45.447 --> 00:13:46.749
- Just cast his care and he says, god, i can't live with this
- 00:13:46.815 --> 00:13:48.751
- God, i can't live with this grief, i've got to have you take
- 00:13:48.817 --> 00:13:51.954
- Grief, i've got to have you take it away. and he said that the
- 00:13:52.021 --> 00:13:53.322
- It away. and he said that the love of god came into him in
- 00:13:53.389 --> 00:13:55.724
- Love of god came into him in such a strong way that he said,
- 00:13:55.791 --> 00:13:58.427
- Such a strong way that he said, he couldn't tell many people. he
- 00:13:58.494 --> 00:13:59.762
- He couldn't tell many people. he knew that i would understand,
- 00:13:59.828 --> 00:14:00.996
- Knew that i would understand, but the average person, he
- 00:14:01.063 --> 00:14:02.031
- But the average person, he couldn't explain this to. but
- 00:14:02.097 --> 00:14:03.232
- Couldn't explain this to. but he says he is happier than he
- 00:14:03.299 --> 00:14:05.634
- He says he is happier than he had ever been in his life. that
- 00:14:05.701 --> 00:14:08.504
- Had ever been in his life. that going through the loss of his
- 00:14:08.570 --> 00:14:10.005
- Going through the loss of his wife was the greatest thing that
- 00:14:10.072 --> 00:14:11.874
- Wife was the greatest thing that ever happened to him in his
- 00:14:11.941 --> 00:14:13.242
- Ever happened to him in his personal relationship with god,
- 00:14:13.309 --> 00:14:15.444
- Personal relationship with god, because it made him turn to the
- 00:14:15.511 --> 00:14:16.979
- Because it made him turn to the lord, and he says, man, i've got
- 00:14:17.046 --> 00:14:19.515
- Lord, and he says, man, i've got joy that i've never even thought
- 00:14:19.581 --> 00:14:21.050
- Joy that i've never even thought possible before. and the guy is
- 00:14:21.116 --> 00:14:23.252
- Possible before. and the guy is just rejoicing. now he's now
- 00:14:23.319 --> 00:14:24.887
- Just rejoicing. now he's now gone on to be with the lord.
- 00:14:24.954 --> 00:14:26.088
- Gone on to be with the lord. this was quite a few years ago.
- 00:14:26.155 --> 00:14:28.057
- This was quite a few years ago. but i'm saying that that just
- 00:14:28.123 --> 00:14:29.692
- But i'm saying that that just shows you that, again, it
- 00:14:29.758 --> 00:14:31.794
- Shows you that, again, it doesn't matter what it is
- 00:14:31.860 --> 00:14:32.995
- Doesn't matter what it is that you're dealing with.
- 00:14:33.062 --> 00:14:34.530
- The scripture says, humble
- 00:14:34.596 --> 00:14:36.031
- The scripture says, humble yourself, come before god,
- 00:14:36.098 --> 00:14:37.900
- Yourself, come before god, cast those cares over on
- 00:14:37.967 --> 00:14:39.601
- Cast those cares over on the lord, and god will
- 00:14:39.668 --> 00:14:41.403
- Fill you with his love and with
- 00:14:41.470 --> 00:14:43.839
- Fill you with his love and with his acceptance so much that
- 00:14:43.906 --> 00:14:45.507
- His acceptance so much that it really doesn't matter what
- 00:14:45.574 --> 00:14:46.775
- It really doesn't matter what anybody else says. this is one
- 00:14:46.842 --> 00:14:49.278
- Anybody else says. this is one of the ways that i deal with the
- 00:14:49.345 --> 00:14:52.281
- Of the ways that i deal with the criticism that comes at me. you
- 00:14:52.348 --> 00:14:54.149
- Know, through this teaching, i'm
- 00:14:54.817 --> 00:14:56.151
- Trying to encourage people and
- 00:14:56.151 --> 00:14:57.820
- Tell you how to be happy and how
- 00:14:57.820 --> 00:14:59.355
- To walk in joy and peace, and
- 00:14:59.355 --> 00:15:01.423
- Yet i'll have people hate me,
- 00:15:01.490 --> 00:15:02.992
- Yet i'll have people hate me, i'll have terrible things said,
- 00:15:03.058 --> 00:15:04.526
- I'll have terrible things said, i'll have people who have been
- 00:15:04.593 --> 00:15:06.595
- I'll have people who have been embracing their pain and somehow
- 00:15:06.662 --> 00:15:09.231
- Embracing their pain and somehow or another feeling that that's
- 00:15:09.298 --> 00:15:10.432
- Or another feeling that that's the proper thing to do, they
- 00:15:10.499 --> 00:15:12.301
- The proper thing to do, they will hate me for this, and
- 00:15:12.368 --> 00:15:13.502
- Will hate me for this, and they'll criticize me over it.
- 00:15:13.569 --> 00:15:15.004
- They'll criticize me over it. and so i'll get a lot of hate
- 00:15:15.070 --> 00:15:16.405
- And so i'll get a lot of hate mail. and you know the way that
- 00:15:16.472 --> 00:15:18.307
- Mail. and you know the way that i deal with that? is that i just
- 00:15:18.374 --> 00:15:20.242
- I deal with that? is that i just go to the lord and cast my care
- 00:15:20.309 --> 00:15:22.544
- Go to the lord and cast my care over on him. if you ever get to
- 00:15:22.611 --> 00:15:24.646
- Over on him. if you ever get to a place that you like people to
- 00:15:24.713 --> 00:15:26.415
- A place that you like people to reject you, i think something's
- 00:15:26.482 --> 00:15:28.384
- Reject you, i think something's wrong with you, because god made
- 00:15:28.450 --> 00:15:29.918
- Wrong with you, because god made us for fellowship, and nobody
- 00:15:29.985 --> 00:15:32.121
- Us for fellowship, and nobody likes rejection. so i'm not
- 00:15:32.187 --> 00:15:34.189
- Likes rejection. so i'm not saying you ought to ever get to
- 00:15:34.256 --> 00:15:35.324
- Saying you ought to ever get to where you enjoy rejection, but
- 00:15:35.391 --> 00:15:37.893
- Where you enjoy rejection, but you should get to a place to
- 00:15:37.960 --> 00:15:39.661
- You should get to a place to where you aren't going to let
- 00:15:39.728 --> 00:15:40.629
- Where you aren't going to let your emotions dominate you, and
- 00:15:40.696 --> 00:15:42.998
- Your emotions dominate you, and you can go to the lord and cast
- 00:15:43.065 --> 00:15:44.366
- You can go to the lord and cast your care over on the lord.
- 00:15:44.433 --> 00:15:45.734
- Your care over on the lord. and so this is how i deal with
- 00:15:45.801 --> 00:15:47.202
- And so this is how i deal with things. when people reject me, i
- 00:15:47.269 --> 00:15:48.637
- Things. when people reject me, i just go back to my relationship
- 00:15:48.704 --> 00:15:50.739
- Just go back to my relationship with the lord. i go to loving on
- 00:15:50.806 --> 00:15:52.307
- With the lord. i go to loving on god, and i let his love and his
- 00:15:52.374 --> 00:15:55.577
- God, and i let his love and his acceptance wash over me, and
- 00:15:55.644 --> 00:15:58.580
- Acceptance wash over me, and god almighty is so infinitely
- 00:15:58.647 --> 00:16:01.283
- God almighty is so infinitely greater than anybody else who's
- 00:16:01.350 --> 00:16:03.819
- Greater than anybody else who's rejecting me that it just, in
- 00:16:03.886 --> 00:16:05.821
- Rejecting me that it just, in comparison, it makes it no big
- 00:16:05.888 --> 00:16:08.090
- Comparison, it makes it no big deal. i don't know if you can
- 00:16:08.157 --> 00:16:11.527
- Deal. i don't know if you can understand that or appreciate
- 00:16:11.593 --> 00:16:12.628
- Understand that or appreciate it, but that's how i deal with
- 00:16:12.694 --> 00:16:13.762
- It, but that's how i deal with stuff. i actually had a man
- 00:16:13.829 --> 00:16:15.731
- Stuff. i actually had a man come up to me one time after
- 00:16:15.798 --> 00:16:17.132
- Come up to me one time after i ministered, and he was just
- 00:16:17.199 --> 00:16:18.300
- I ministered, and he was just reading me the riot act and...
- 00:16:18.367 --> 00:16:19.968
- Reading me the riot act and... and criticizing me over
- 00:16:20.035 --> 00:16:22.004
- And criticizing me over everything i said, and some of
- 00:16:22.071 --> 00:16:23.605
- Everything i said, and some of what he said was wrong. i
- 00:16:23.672 --> 00:16:25.874
- What he said was wrong. i probably did make some mistakes;
- 00:16:25.941 --> 00:16:27.276
- Probably did make some mistakes; i don't do everything right.
- 00:16:27.342 --> 00:16:28.343
- I don't do everything right. but anyway, this guy was just
- 00:16:28.410 --> 00:16:29.511
- But anyway, this guy was just letting me have it. and you
- 00:16:29.578 --> 00:16:31.313
- Letting me have it. and you know, right in the middle of him
- 00:16:31.380 --> 00:16:32.548
- Know, right in the middle of him talking to me, i just stopped
- 00:16:32.614 --> 00:16:33.749
- Talking to me, i just stopped him, and i said, who's... who
- 00:16:33.816 --> 00:16:34.817
- Him, and i said, who's... who died and made you god? and he
- 00:16:34.883 --> 00:16:37.219
- Died and made you god? and he looked at me and says, like what
- 00:16:37.286 --> 00:16:38.287
- Looked at me and says, like what do you mean? i said, you aren't
- 00:16:38.353 --> 00:16:39.888
- Do you mean? i said, you aren't god. i don't have to please you,
- 00:16:39.955 --> 00:16:41.457
- God. i don't have to please you, i don't care what you think. he
- 00:16:41.523 --> 00:16:43.225
- I don't care what you think. he said, well you should. and he
- 00:16:43.292 --> 00:16:44.526
- Said, well you should. and he got really offended that i
- 00:16:44.593 --> 00:16:45.928
- Got really offended that i wasn't honoring him and
- 00:16:45.994 --> 00:16:47.362
- Wasn't honoring him and esteeming him. and i said,
- 00:16:47.429 --> 00:16:48.464
- Esteeming him. and i said, compared to god you're nobody. i
- 00:16:48.530 --> 00:16:50.999
- Compared to god you're nobody. i said, god almighty loves me.
- 00:16:51.066 --> 00:16:53.235
- Said, god almighty loves me. god's the one that called me to
- 00:16:53.302 --> 00:16:54.536
- God's the one that called me to minister, and i don't always do
- 00:16:54.603 --> 00:16:55.938
- Minister, and i don't always do it perfectly, but man, i'm doing
- 00:16:56.004 --> 00:16:57.406
- It perfectly, but man, i'm doing it from the best of my ability,
- 00:16:57.473 --> 00:16:59.475
- It from the best of my ability, and god almighty accepts me, so
- 00:16:59.541 --> 00:17:01.743
- And god almighty accepts me, so who are you? i just disesteem
- 00:17:01.810 --> 00:17:04.146
- Who are you? i just disesteem all of your criticism. and it
- 00:17:04.213 --> 00:17:06.148
- All of your criticism. and it upset the guy, and he left. but
- 00:17:06.215 --> 00:17:07.950
- Upset the guy, and he left. but that's the way that i deal with
- 00:17:08.016 --> 00:17:09.284
- That's the way that i deal with things, is i just put it into
- 00:17:09.351 --> 00:17:11.987
- Things, is i just put it into comparison into relationship
- 00:17:12.054 --> 00:17:14.022
- Comparison into relationship with the lord. you know, let me
- 00:17:14.089 --> 00:17:15.324
- With the lord. you know, let me use another passage of scripture
- 00:17:15.390 --> 00:17:16.792
- Use another passage of scripture over here talking about paul.
- 00:17:16.859 --> 00:17:19.795
- Over here talking about paul. this is in 2 corinthians,
- 00:17:19.862 --> 00:17:22.164
- This is in 2 corinthians, chapter 4. and paul, in the
- 00:17:22.231 --> 00:17:23.832
- Chapter 4. and paul, in the first part of that chapter was
- 00:17:23.899 --> 00:17:25.334
- First part of that chapter was talking about all of the things
- 00:17:25.400 --> 00:17:27.336
- Talking about all of the things that he had suffered,
- 00:17:27.402 --> 00:17:28.437
- But he said this in verse 17. he
- 00:17:28.504 --> 00:17:31.240
- But he said this in verse 17. he says, for our light affliction,
- 00:17:31.306 --> 00:17:33.275
- Says, for our light affliction, which is but for a moment,
- 00:17:33.342 --> 00:17:35.177
- Which is but for a moment, worketh for us a far more
- 00:17:35.244 --> 00:17:36.812
- Worketh for us a far more exceeding and eternal weight
- 00:17:36.879 --> 00:17:38.580
- Exceeding and eternal weight of glory; while we look not at
- 00:17:38.647 --> 00:17:40.616
- Of glory; while we look not at the things which are seen,
- 00:17:40.682 --> 00:17:41.984
- The things which are seen, but at the things which are
- 00:17:42.050 --> 00:17:43.519
- But at the things which are not seen: for the things which
- 00:17:43.585 --> 00:17:45.087
- Not seen: for the things which are seen are temporal; that
- 00:17:45.154 --> 00:17:46.755
- Are seen are temporal; that means temporary, but the
- 00:17:46.822 --> 00:17:48.257
- Means temporary, but the things which are not seen
- 00:17:48.323 --> 00:17:49.725
- Things which are not seen are eternal. so here's the
- 00:17:49.791 --> 00:17:51.693
- Apostle paul talking about all
- 00:17:51.760 --> 00:17:53.328
- Apostle paul talking about all of the things that he suffered,
- 00:17:53.395 --> 00:17:54.396
- Of the things that he suffered, and he said, it's just a light
- 00:17:54.463 --> 00:17:55.597
- And he said, it's just a light affliction. do you know some
- 00:17:55.664 --> 00:17:58.400
- Affliction. do you know some people might think, well that's
- 00:17:58.467 --> 00:17:59.535
- People might think, well that's the reason paul could say that
- 00:17:59.601 --> 00:18:00.669
- The reason paul could say that is because he didn't have the
- 00:18:00.736 --> 00:18:01.637
- Is because he didn't have the problems that i've got. i'm not
- 00:18:01.703 --> 00:18:03.338
- Problems that i've got. i'm not going to take time, but if you
- 00:18:03.405 --> 00:18:04.339
- Going to take time, but if you turn over to 2 corinthians,
- 00:18:04.406 --> 00:18:05.641
- Turn over to 2 corinthians, chapter 11, he mentions some of
- 00:18:05.707 --> 00:18:07.743
- Chapter 11, he mentions some of his problems, which is being
- 00:18:07.809 --> 00:18:09.645
- His problems, which is being stoned and left for dead, beaten
- 00:18:09.711 --> 00:18:12.047
- Stoned and left for dead, beaten with rods, beaten with whips,
- 00:18:12.114 --> 00:18:14.483
- With rods, beaten with whips, fasting, abuse, rejection, being
- 00:18:14.550 --> 00:18:18.086
- Fasting, abuse, rejection, being imprisoned, and on and on and on
- 00:18:18.153 --> 00:18:19.988
- Imprisoned, and on and on and on it goes. paul suffered more
- 00:18:20.055 --> 00:18:22.124
- It goes. paul suffered more things than you and i have ever
- 00:18:22.191 --> 00:18:23.692
- Things than you and i have ever suffered, and yet it was just a
- 00:18:23.759 --> 00:18:24.960
- Suffered, and yet it was just a light affliction, not because of
- 00:18:25.027 --> 00:18:27.062
- Light affliction, not because of what was happening outside, but
- 00:18:27.129 --> 00:18:28.664
- What was happening outside, but what... because of what was
- 00:18:28.730 --> 00:18:29.798
- What... because of what was happening inside. if you are
- 00:18:29.865 --> 00:18:32.634
- Happening inside. if you are being crushed by the pressures
- 00:18:32.701 --> 00:18:34.469
- Being crushed by the pressures of this world, it's because of
- 00:18:34.536 --> 00:18:35.804
- Of this world, it's because of the vacuum that you have inside.
- 00:18:35.871 --> 00:18:38.907
- The vacuum that you have inside. if you get filled up with god, i
- 00:18:38.974 --> 00:18:41.243
- If you get filled up with god, i guarantee you, you can withstand
- 00:18:41.310 --> 00:18:43.078
- Guarantee you, you can withstand any pressure that will come from
- 00:18:43.145 --> 00:18:45.047
- Any pressure that will come from the outside. so here's paul, who
- 00:18:45.113 --> 00:18:47.249
- The outside. so here's paul, who had more problems than you and i
- 00:18:47.316 --> 00:18:49.051
- Had more problems than you and i ever thought about having, and
- 00:18:49.117 --> 00:18:50.819
- Ever thought about having, and yet he just called it a light
- 00:18:50.886 --> 00:18:52.120
- Yet he just called it a light affliction. how do you justify
- 00:18:52.187 --> 00:18:54.089
- Affliction. how do you justify talking about your heavy burden
- 00:18:54.156 --> 00:18:55.591
- Talking about your heavy burden and how terrible everything is
- 00:18:55.657 --> 00:18:57.059
- And how terrible everything is for you, and yet you haven't
- 00:18:57.125 --> 00:18:58.627
- For you, and yet you haven't suffered near as much as the
- 00:18:58.694 --> 00:18:59.928
- Suffered near as much as the apostle paul suffered? so this
- 00:18:59.995 --> 00:19:02.431
- Apostle paul suffered? so this shows you that it's not what's
- 00:19:02.497 --> 00:19:04.166
- Shows you that it's not what's happening to you that causes all
- 00:19:04.233 --> 00:19:06.101
- Happening to you that causes all of these feelings and emotions,
- 00:19:06.168 --> 00:19:07.536
- Of these feelings and emotions, it's the way you think, it's the
- 00:19:07.603 --> 00:19:08.971
- It's the way you think, it's the way you process what happens to
- 00:19:09.037 --> 00:19:11.306
- Way you process what happens to you that causes the problem.
- 00:19:11.373 --> 00:19:13.208
- So he says, it's a light
- 00:19:13.275 --> 00:19:14.476
- So he says, it's a light affliction, and then he
- 00:19:14.543 --> 00:19:15.644
- Affliction, and then he gives us two reasons. he
- 00:19:15.711 --> 00:19:17.045
- Gives us two reasons. he says, it's but for a moment,
- 00:19:17.112 --> 00:19:19.314
- Says, it's but for a moment, and it works for us a far
- 00:19:19.381 --> 00:19:21.116
- And it works for us a far more exceeding and eternal
- 00:19:21.183 --> 00:19:22.484
- More exceeding and eternal weight of glory. did you know
- 00:19:22.551 --> 00:19:24.353
- If for some reason, you
- 00:19:24.419 --> 00:19:26.755
- If for some reason, you just had a life that 60,
- 00:19:26.822 --> 00:19:28.857
- Just had a life that 60, 70 years, whatever, it's just
- 00:19:28.924 --> 00:19:31.059
- 70 years, whatever, it's just nothing but pain and suffering,
- 00:19:31.126 --> 00:19:32.694
- I don't believe that that's
- 00:19:34.096 --> 00:19:35.097
- I don't believe that that's totally accurate, everybody has
- 00:19:35.163 --> 00:19:37.065
- Totally accurate, everybody has a lot of good things happen in
- 00:19:37.132 --> 00:19:38.533
- A lot of good things happen in their life, but sometimes people
- 00:19:38.600 --> 00:19:41.203
- Their life, but sometimes people suffer more than others. but
- 00:19:41.270 --> 00:19:42.604
- Suffer more than others. but even if you were going through
- 00:19:42.671 --> 00:19:43.905
- Even if you were going through something for 60 or 70 years,
- 00:19:43.972 --> 00:19:45.641
- Something for 60 or 70 years, did you know compared to
- 00:19:45.707 --> 00:19:46.708
- Did you know compared to eternity, it's just like the
- 00:19:46.775 --> 00:19:48.543
- Eternity, it's just like the snap of a finger. and i know
- 00:19:48.610 --> 00:19:51.880
- Snap of a finger. and i know that that's not the way most
- 00:19:51.947 --> 00:19:52.914
- That that's not the way most people think. most people don't
- 00:19:52.981 --> 00:19:54.383
- People think. most people don't think about eternity, and
- 00:19:54.449 --> 00:19:55.584
- Think about eternity, and they're just focused on this
- 00:19:55.651 --> 00:19:56.585
- They're just focused on this life. but the truth is that
- 00:19:56.652 --> 00:19:58.487
- Life. but the truth is that we've got an eternity, we're
- 00:19:58.553 --> 00:19:59.788
- We've got an eternity, we're going to live in heaven where
- 00:19:59.855 --> 00:20:00.722
- Going to live in heaven where there won't be any sorrow or
- 00:20:00.789 --> 00:20:02.257
- Pain, and the former things will
- 00:20:02.324 --> 00:20:04.159
- Pain, and the former things will not even come to mind, is what
- 00:20:04.226 --> 00:20:06.728
- Not even come to mind, is what it says over in the latter part
- 00:20:06.795 --> 00:20:08.363
- It says over in the latter part of isaiah. man, we've got...
- 00:20:08.430 --> 00:20:10.599
- Our future is so bright, we've
- 00:20:10.666 --> 00:20:11.933
- Our future is so bright, we've got to squint to look at it.
- 00:20:12.000 --> 00:20:13.735
- Got to squint to look at it. and so, if you are thinking
- 00:20:13.802 --> 00:20:15.704
- And so, if you are thinking properly and looking at
- 00:20:15.771 --> 00:20:17.005
- Properly and looking at things in the light of eternity,
- 00:20:17.072 --> 00:20:18.774
- Things in the light of eternity, well then the problems that
- 00:20:18.840 --> 00:20:20.442
- Well then the problems that we're having is nothing in
- 00:20:20.509 --> 00:20:22.210
- We're having is nothing in comparison. so that's one
- 00:20:22.277 --> 00:20:23.445
- Comparison. so that's one way he shrunk it down to where
- 00:20:23.512 --> 00:20:25.380
- Way he shrunk it down to where it was just a light affliction.
- 00:20:25.447 --> 00:20:26.748
- The second thing, he says,
- 00:20:26.815 --> 00:20:28.050
- The second thing, he says, while we look not at the
- 00:20:28.116 --> 00:20:29.551
- While we look not at the things which are seen, but at
- 00:20:29.618 --> 00:20:31.320
- Things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen:
- 00:20:31.386 --> 00:20:32.587
- The things which are not seen: for the things which are seen
- 00:20:32.654 --> 00:20:33.755
- For the things which are seen are temporal; or temporary, but
- 00:20:33.822 --> 00:20:35.824
- Are temporal; or temporary, but the things which are not seen
- 00:20:35.891 --> 00:20:37.059
- The things which are not seen are eternal. so here's another
- 00:20:37.125 --> 00:20:38.794
- Way that you deal with negative
- 00:20:38.860 --> 00:20:40.629
- Way that you deal with negative emotions. if you really have
- 00:20:40.696 --> 00:20:43.398
- Emotions. if you really have negative emotions, not caused by
- 00:20:43.465 --> 00:20:45.400
- Negative emotions, not caused by you just being paranoid and
- 00:20:45.467 --> 00:20:47.436
- You just being paranoid and being negative and always
- 00:20:47.502 --> 00:20:49.237
- Being negative and always looking for the worst side of
- 00:20:49.304 --> 00:20:50.372
- Looking for the worst side of everything, but if you've really
- 00:20:50.439 --> 00:20:51.440
- Everything, but if you've really got some serious problems that
- 00:20:51.506 --> 00:20:53.508
- Got some serious problems that are staring you in the face, one
- 00:20:53.575 --> 00:20:55.477
- Are staring you in the face, one of the things you have to do is
- 00:20:55.544 --> 00:20:56.611
- Of the things you have to do is to look beyond them and focus on
- 00:20:56.678 --> 00:20:59.848
- To look beyond them and focus on the promises of god. if nothing
- 00:20:59.915 --> 00:21:01.316
- The promises of god. if nothing else, focus on heaven and
- 00:21:01.383 --> 00:21:03.151
- Else, focus on heaven and recognize, it's just temporary
- 00:21:03.218 --> 00:21:04.820
- Recognize, it's just temporary what's happening to you.
- 00:21:04.886 --> 00:21:06.488
- What's happening to you. you know, i used to have a
- 00:21:06.555 --> 00:21:07.322
- You know, i used to have a 35-millimeter camera where you
- 00:21:07.389 --> 00:21:09.191
- 35-millimeter camera where you would focus through the lens,
- 00:21:09.257 --> 00:21:11.360
- Would focus through the lens, and we would go to the zoo, and
- 00:21:11.426 --> 00:21:12.828
- And we would go to the zoo, and you could either focus on the
- 00:21:12.894 --> 00:21:14.229
- You could either focus on the animal that was in the cage, and
- 00:21:14.296 --> 00:21:16.832
- Animal that was in the cage, and the chain-link fence would just
- 00:21:16.898 --> 00:21:18.867
- The chain-link fence would just totally disappear, or you could
- 00:21:18.934 --> 00:21:21.136
- Totally disappear, or you could focus on the fence and the
- 00:21:21.203 --> 00:21:23.338
- Focus on the fence and the animal would disappear. your
- 00:21:23.405 --> 00:21:25.240
- Animal would disappear. your focus is what determines what
- 00:21:25.307 --> 00:21:27.275
- Focus is what determines what dominates you. and sad to say,
- 00:21:27.342 --> 00:21:29.311
- Dominates you. and sad to say, most people are focused on their
- 00:21:29.378 --> 00:21:30.846
- Most people are focused on their problems, but you could be like
- 00:21:30.912 --> 00:21:32.381
- Problems, but you could be like paul here to where you aren't
- 00:21:32.447 --> 00:21:33.949
- Paul here to where you aren't focused on the things that are
- 00:21:34.015 --> 00:21:35.751
- Focused on the things that are seen, you're looking beyond
- 00:21:35.817 --> 00:21:37.619
- Seen, you're looking beyond them, you're looking and
- 00:21:37.686 --> 00:21:38.587
- Them, you're looking and recognizing that if you are
- 00:21:38.653 --> 00:21:39.855
- Recognizing that if you are suffering for the cause of the
- 00:21:39.921 --> 00:21:41.223
