  • IT'S ALWAYS A JOY TO COME

  • INTO YOUR HOMES AND IF
  • 00:00:13.130 --> 00:00:14.190
  • PLEASE STOP BY AND BE
  • 00:00:16.000 --> 00:00:17.040
  • A PART OF ONE OF OUR
  • 00:00:17.040 --> 00:00:17.250
  • SERVICES.

  • IN AND THANK YOU AGAIN
  • 00:00:22.050 --> 00:00:23.150
  • FOR COMING OUT TODAY.
  • 00:00:23.150 --> 00:00:24.290
  • I LIKE TO START WITH
  • 00:00:24.290 --> 00:00:25.210
  • SOMETHING FUNNY.
  • 00:00:25.210 --> 00:00:26.260
  • I HEARD ABOUT THIS MAN
  • 00:00:26.260 --> 00:00:27.230
  • THAT DIED AND WENT TO
  • 00:00:27.230 --> 00:00:28.210
  • HEAVEN.
  • 00:00:28.210 --> 00:00:29.240
  • SAINT PETER ESCORTED HIM
  • 00:00:29.240 --> 00:00:31.090
  • DOWN THIS LONG HALLWAY
  • 00:00:31.090 --> 00:00:32.240
  • FILLED WITH CLOCKS. THE
  • 00:00:32.240 --> 00:00:34.060
  • HANDS ON THE CLOCKS WERE
  • 00:00:34.060 --> 00:00:35.220
  • ALL MOVING AT DIFFERENT
  • 00:00:35.220 --> 00:00:36.240
  • SPEEDS. PETER EXPLAINED
  • 00:00:36.240 --> 00:00:38.100
  • THAT EVERY PERSON HAS A
  • 00:00:38.100 --> 00:00:39.290
  • CLOCK. WHEN THEY SIN,
  • 00:00:39.290 --> 00:00:41.230
  • THE CLOCK TICKS.
  • 00:00:41.230 --> 00:00:43.160
  • THE MAN SAW A CLOCK
  • 00:00:43.160 --> 00:00:44.120
  • BARELY MOVING. IT WAS
  • 00:00:44.120 --> 00:00:45.110
  • BILLY GRAHAM'S CLOCK.
  • 00:00:45.110 --> 00:00:47.000
  • THERE WAS ANOTHER CLOCK
  • 00:00:47.000 --> 00:00:47.220
  • CREEPING ALONG, MOTHER
  • 00:00:47.220 --> 00:00:48.150
  • THERESA'S CLOCK. HE SAID
  • 00:00:48.150 --> 00:00:50.030
  • CURIOUSLY, "CAN I SEE MY
  • 00:00:50.030 --> 00:00:51.110
  • CLOCK?" PETER SAID, "YEA,
  • 00:00:51.110 --> 00:00:53.010
  • WE KEEP YOURS IN THE
  • 00:00:53.010 --> 00:00:53.290
  • OFFICE AND USE IT AS
  • 00:00:53.290 --> 00:00:54.270
  • A FAN." (LAUGHTER)
  • 00:00:54.270 --> 00:00:57.250
  • HOLD UP YOUR BIBLE, SAY
  • 00:00:57.250 --> 00:00:58.250
  • IT LIKE YOU MEAN IT.
  • 00:00:58.250 --> 00:00:59.260
  • THIS IS MY BIBLE.
  • 00:00:59.260 --> 00:01:01.120
  • I AM WHAT IT SAYS I AM,
  • 00:01:01.120 --> 00:01:02.280
  • I HAVE WHAT IT SAYS
  • 00:01:02.280 --> 00:01:04.240
  • I HAVE. I CAN DO WHAT
  • 00:01:04.240 --> 00:01:05.220
  • IT SAYS I CAN DO.
  • 00:01:05.220 --> 00:01:07.000
  • TODAY I WILL BE TAUGHT
  • 00:01:07.000 --> 00:01:08.030
  • THE WORD OF GOD.
  • 00:01:08.030 --> 00:01:09.150
  • I BOLDLY CONFESS: MY
  • 00:01:09.150 --> 00:01:10.290
  • MIND IS ALERT. MY HEART
  • 00:01:10.290 --> 00:01:12.150
  • IS RECEPTIVE. I WILL
  • 00:01:12.150 --> 00:01:13.280
  • NEVER BE THE SAME IN
  • 00:01:13.280 --> 00:01:15.090
  • JESUS' NAME. GOD BLESS
  • 00:01:15.090 --> 00:01:16.250
  • I WANT TO TALK TO YOU
  • 00:01:19.070 --> 00:01:19.240
  • TODAY ABOUT "REMEMBER
  • 00:01:19.240 --> 00:01:21.000
  • YOUR DREAM". ALL OF US
  • 00:01:21.000 --> 00:01:22.270
  • HAVE THINGS THAT WE'RE
  • 00:01:22.270 --> 00:01:23.270
  • THAT WE WANT TO ACCOMPLISH.
  • 00:01:25.060 --> 00:01:27.010
  • DEEP DOWN, WE KNOW IT'S
  • 00:01:27.010 --> 00:01:28.040
  • A PART OF OUR DESTINY.
  • 00:01:28.040 --> 00:01:29.250
  • WE CAN FEEL IT SO STRONGLY.
  • 00:01:29.250 --> 00:01:31.180
  • BUT THEN WE HIT SOME
  • 00:01:31.180 --> 00:01:32.210
  • SETBACKS. WE DIDN'T GET
  • 00:01:32.210 --> 00:01:34.060
  • THE PROMOTION, THE MEDICAL
  • 00:01:34.060 --> 00:01:35.170
  • REPORT WASN'T GOOD OR A
  • 00:01:35.170 --> 00:01:37.110
  • RELATIONSHIP DIDN'T WORK
  • 00:01:37.110 --> 00:01:38.170
  • OUT. LIFE HAS A WAY OF
  • 00:01:38.170 --> 00:01:41.140
  • PUSHING OUR DREAMS DOWN.
  • 00:01:41.140 --> 00:01:43.130
  • THEY CAN BECOME BURIED
  • 00:01:43.130 --> 00:01:45.010
  • UNDER DISCOURAGEMENT,
  • 00:01:45.010 --> 00:01:46.110
  • BURIED UNDER PAST MISTAKES.
  • 00:01:46.110 --> 00:01:48.160
  • THERE ARE DREAMS BURIED
  • 00:01:48.160 --> 00:01:49.240
  • UNDER DIVORCE, BURIED
  • 00:01:49.240 --> 00:01:51.010
  • UNDER LOW SELF-ESTEEM.
  • 00:01:51.010 --> 00:01:53.040
  • IT'S EASY TO SETTLE FOR
  • 00:01:53.040 --> 00:01:54.170
  • MEDIOCRITY EVEN THOUGH
  • 00:01:54.170 --> 00:01:56.130
  • WE HAVE ALL THIS POTENTIAL
  • 00:01:56.130 --> 00:01:57.240
  • BURIED ON THE INSIDE.
  • 00:01:57.240 --> 00:02:00.090
  • BUT JUST BECAUSE YOU GAVE
  • 00:02:00.090 --> 00:02:01.210
  • UP DOESN'T MEAN GOD GAVE
  • 00:02:01.210 --> 00:02:03.030
  • UP. YOUR DREAM MAY BE
  • 00:02:03.030 --> 00:02:05.060
  • BURIED. THE GOOD NEWS
  • 00:02:05.060 --> 00:02:06.100
  • IS IT'S STILL ALIVE. IT'S
  • 00:02:06.100 --> 00:02:08.160
  • NOT TOO LATE TO SEE IT
  • 00:02:08.160 --> 00:02:09.290
  • COME TO PASS. WE'VE ALL
  • 00:02:09.290 --> 00:02:11.090
  • BEEN THROUGH
  • 00:02:11.090 --> 00:02:12.020
  • DISAPPOINTMENTS AND
  • 00:02:12.020 --> 00:02:12.270
  • SETBACKS. LIFE HAPPENS.
  • 00:02:12.270 --> 00:02:15.150
  • BUT INSTEAD OF REMEMBERING
  • 00:02:15.150 --> 00:02:16.200
  • THE HURT, THE PAIN, WHAT
  • 00:02:16.200 --> 00:02:18.080
  • DIDN'T WORK OUT, THE KEY
  • 00:02:18.080 --> 00:02:19.270
  • TO REACHING YOUR DESTINY
  • 00:02:19.270 --> 00:02:21.270
  • IS YOU HAVE TO REMEMBER
  • 00:02:21.270 --> 00:02:23.060
  • YOUR DREAM. REMEMBER
  • 00:02:23.060 --> 00:02:25.040
  • WHAT GOD PROMISED YOU.
  • 00:02:25.040 --> 00:02:27.050
  • REMEMBER WHAT HE
  • 00:02:27.050 --> 00:02:27.280
  • WHISPERED TO YOU IN THE
  • 00:02:27.280 --> 00:02:28.270
  • MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT.
  • 00:02:28.270 --> 00:02:30.200
  • THE SCRIPTURE CALLS IT,
  • 00:02:30.200 --> 00:02:31.210
  • "THE SECRET PETITIONS OF
  • 00:02:31.210 --> 00:02:32.270
  • OUR HEART"; THINGS YOU
  • 00:02:32.270 --> 00:02:34.190
  • HAVEN'T TOLD ANYBODY
  • 00:02:34.190 --> 00:02:35.250
  • ABOUT. IT MAY SEEM
  • 00:02:35.250 --> 00:02:37.080
  • IMPOSSIBLE. EVERY VOICE
  • 00:02:37.080 --> 00:02:39.060
  • TELLS YOU IT'S NOT GOING
  • 00:02:39.060 --> 00:02:40.090
  • TO HAPPEN, YOU'VE BEEN
  • 00:02:40.090 --> 00:02:41.170
  • PUSHING IT DOWN, BUT GOD
  • 00:02:41.170 --> 00:02:42.290
  • IS SAYING, "WHAT I
  • 00:02:42.290 --> 00:02:44.100
  • PROMISED YOU, I'M STILL
  • 00:02:44.100 --> 00:02:45.220
  • GOING TO DO. I SPOKE IT
  • 00:02:45.220 --> 00:02:47.050
  • TO YOU. IT MAY NOT HAVE
  • 00:02:47.050 --> 00:02:48.270
  • HAPPENED YET, BUT I AM
  • 00:02:48.270 --> 00:02:50.050
  • TRUE TO MY WORD. IT IS
  • 00:02:50.050 --> 00:02:51.140
  • ON THE WAY."
  • 00:02:51.140 --> 00:02:52.290
  • IF YOU'LL DO YOUR PART
  • 00:02:52.290 --> 00:02:54.030
  • AND START BELIEVING
  • 00:02:54.030 --> 00:02:55.080
  • AGAIN, GET YOUR PASSION
  • 00:02:55.080 --> 00:02:56.160
  • BACK, GOD IS GOING TO
  • 00:02:56.160 --> 00:02:58.090
  • RESURRECT WHAT YOU
  • 00:02:58.090 --> 00:02:59.170
  • THOUGHT WAS DEAD. DREAMS
  • 00:02:59.170 --> 00:03:01.260
  • THAT YOU'D GIVEN UP ON,
  • 00:03:01.260 --> 00:03:03.100
  • YOU TRIED, IT DIDN'T
  • 00:03:03.100 --> 00:03:04.110
  • WORK OUT. IT'S BEEN SO
  • 00:03:04.110 --> 00:03:05.160
  • LONG. THEY'RE GOING TO
  • 00:03:05.160 --> 00:03:06.240
  • SUDDENLY COME BACK TO
  • 00:03:06.240 --> 00:03:08.070
  • LIFE. PROBLEMS THAT
  • 00:03:08.070 --> 00:03:09.250
  • LOOKED PERMANENT ARE
  • 00:03:09.250 --> 00:03:11.060
  • GOING TO SUDDENLY TURN
  • 00:03:11.060 --> 00:03:12.090
  • AROUND. WHAT SHOULD HAVE
  • 00:03:12.090 --> 00:03:13.290
  • TAKEN YEARS, GOD'S GOING
  • 00:03:13.290 --> 00:03:15.110
  • TO DO IN A FRACTION OF
  • 00:03:15.110 --> 00:03:16.150
  • THE TIME. HE HASN'T
  • 00:03:16.150 --> 00:03:17.220
  • CHANGED HIS MIND. HE HAS
  • 00:03:17.220 --> 00:03:19.070
  • LET CIRCUMSTANCES TALK
  • 00:03:21.050 --> 00:03:22.220
  • YOU OUT OF IT. YOU MAY
  • 00:03:22.220 --> 00:03:24.090
  • NOT UNDERSTAND WHY A
  • 00:03:24.090 --> 00:03:26.080
  • BUSINESS DIDN'T MAKE IT,
  • 00:03:26.080 --> 00:03:27.270
  • WHY A PERSON WALKED AWAY,
  • 00:03:27.270 --> 00:03:29.130
  • AN ILLNESS. YOU WERE
  • 00:03:30.150 --> 00:03:31.230
  • DOING THE RIGHT THING,
  • 00:03:31.230 --> 00:03:33.010
  • BUT THE WRONG THING
  • 00:03:33.010 --> 00:03:33.230
  • HAPPENED. IT'S ALL A PART
  • 00:03:33.230 --> 00:03:35.200
  • OF THE PROCESS--EVERY
  • 00:03:35.200 --> 00:03:37.040
  • DISAPPOINTMENT, EVERY
  • 00:03:37.040 --> 00:03:38.140
  • DELAY, EVERY CLOSED DOOR.
  • 00:03:38.140 --> 00:03:40.090
  • IT'S NOT JUST A SETBACK;
  • 00:03:40.090 --> 00:03:42.170
  • IT'S A SET UP FOR GOD TO
  • 00:03:42.170 --> 00:03:44.130
  • GET YOU TO WHERE YOU'RE
  • 00:03:44.130 --> 00:03:45.140
  • SUPPOSED TO BE. IT MAY
  • 00:03:45.140 --> 00:03:47.040
  • BE TAKING A LONG TIME;
  • 00:03:47.040 --> 00:03:48.270
  • IT MAY LOOK IMPOSSIBLE.
  • 00:03:48.270 --> 00:03:50.240
  • ALL IT TAKES IS ONE TOUCH
  • 00:03:50.240 --> 00:03:52.250
  • OF GOD'S FAVOR. WHAT ARE
  • 00:03:52.250 --> 00:03:54.110
  • YOU REMEMBERING?
  • 00:03:54.110 --> 00:03:55.140
  • THE HURT? THE PAIN?
  • 00:03:55.140 --> 00:03:56.200
  • WHAT DIDN'T WORK OUT?
  • 00:03:56.200 --> 00:03:58.020
  • TURN IT AROUND AND
  • 00:03:58.020 --> 00:03:59.070
  • REMEMBER YOUR DREAM.
  • 00:03:59.070 --> 00:04:01.090
  • WHAT HAS GOD PUT IN
  • 00:04:01.090 --> 00:04:02.180
  • YOUR HEART? WHAT DID YOU
  • 00:04:02.180 --> 00:04:04.050
  • USED TO BE EXCITED ABOUT?
  • 00:04:04.050 --> 00:04:06.100
  • NOW YOU THINK IT'S BEEN
  • 00:04:06.100 --> 00:04:07.050
  • TOO LONG, IT'S TOO BIG;
  • 00:04:07.050 --> 00:04:08.290
  • IT'S NOT POSSIBLE. YOU
  • 00:04:08.290 --> 00:04:10.060
  • DON'T THINK YOU COULD
  • 00:04:10.060 --> 00:04:11.050
  • WRITE THE BOOK, FINISH
  • 00:04:11.050 --> 00:04:12.150
  • SCHOOL, SEE YOUR MARRIAGE
  • 00:04:12.150 --> 00:04:14.040
  • RESTORED; START THE
  • 00:04:14.040 --> 00:04:15.270
  • BUSINESS. NO, GET YOUR
  • 00:04:15.270 --> 00:04:16.260
  • PASSION BACK. YOU HAVE
  • 00:04:16.260 --> 00:04:18.070
  • NOT MISSED YOUR

  • OPPORTUNITY. YOU HAVE
  • 00:04:19.070 --> 00:04:20.200
  • NOT HAD TOO MANY BAD
  • 00:04:20.200 --> 00:04:21.280
  • BREAKS. YOU'RE NOT
  • 00:04:21.280 --> 00:04:23.120
  • LACKING. YOU DIDN'T GET
  • 00:04:23.120 --> 00:04:25.050
  • SHORT CHANGED. WHEN GOD
  • 00:04:25.050 --> 00:04:26.190
  • BREATHED LIFE INTO YOU,
  • 00:04:26.190 --> 00:04:28.100
  • HE PUT IN YOU EVERYTHING
  • 00:04:28.100 --> 00:04:29.270
  • YOU NEED TO FULFILL YOUR

  • STOP YOU. BAD BREAKS,
  • 00:04:32.290 --> 00:04:34.200
  • DISAPPOINTMENTS, LOSS.

  • WHAT'S SIGNIFICANT IS
  • 00:09:37.090 --> 00:09:38.220
  • THAT MOUNTAIN HAD

  • 00:09:55.230 --> 00:09:57.080
  • MOUNTAIN. THAT'S THE DREAM
  • 00:09:57.080 --> 00:09:59.150
  • THAT'S BEEN STIRRING IN MY
  • 00:09:59.150 --> 00:10:00.210
  • SPIRIT ALL THESE YEARS."
  • 00:10:00.210 --> 00:10:02.240
  • AT 85, HE WENT OUT AND
  • 00:10:02.240 --> 00:10:04.100
  • CONQUERED THE MOUNTAIN,
  • 00:10:04.100 --> 00:10:06.120
  • SAW THE DREAM COME TO
  • 00:10:06.120 --> 00:10:06.290
  • PASS.
  • 00:10:06.290 --> 00:10:08.180
  • HAVE YOU ALLOWED ANY
  • 00:10:08.180 --> 00:10:09.140
  • DREAMS TO GET BURIED
  • 00:10:09.140 --> 00:10:10.180
  • IN YOU? AT ONE TIME,
  • 00:10:10.180 --> 00:10:12.190
  • YOU BELIEVED YOU COULD
  • 00:10:12.190 --> 00:10:13.240
  • DO SOMETHING GREAT?
  • 00:10:13.240 --> 00:10:15.090
  • YOU BELIEVED YOU COULD
  • 00:10:15.090 --> 00:10:16.020
  • LEAD THE COMPANY IN SALES.
  • 00:10:16.020 --> 00:10:18.020
  • YOU BELIEVED YOU COULD
  • 00:10:18.020 --> 00:10:18.240
  • BREAK THAT ADDICTION.
  • 00:10:18.240 --> 00:10:20.090
  • IT'S BEEN A LONG TIME,
  • 00:10:20.090 --> 00:10:21.180
  • YOU'VE HAD SOME BAD
  • 00:10:21.180 --> 00:10:22.120
  • BREAKS, IT WASN'T ALL
  • 00:10:22.120 --> 00:10:23.250
  • YOUR FAULT. YOU COULD
  • 00:10:23.250 --> 00:10:25.080
  • EASILY SETTLE WHERE YOU
  • 00:10:25.080 --> 00:10:26.050
  • ARE. NOBODY WOULD FAULT
  • 00:10:26.050 --> 00:10:27.150
  • YOU. GOD SENT ME TO LIGHT
  • 00:10:27.150 --> 00:10:29.040
  • A NEW FIRE ON THE INSIDE.
  • 00:10:29.200 --> 00:10:32.200
  • THAT DREAM IS STILL ALIVE.
  • 00:10:32.200 --> 00:10:35.000
  • YOU MAY HAVE TRIED A YEAR
  • 00:10:35.000 --> 00:10:35.240
  • AGO, 5 YEARS AGO OR 40
  • 00:10:35.240 --> 00:10:37.200
  • YEARS AGO. IT DIDN'T
  • 00:10:37.200 --> 00:10:39.190
  • WORK OUT, NOBODY WAS
  • 00:10:39.190 --> 00:10:41.040
  • THERE TO HELP YOU.
  • 00:10:41.040 --> 00:10:42.190
  • GOD IS SAYING TO YOU
  • 00:10:42.190 --> 00:10:44.120
  • WHAT HE SAID TO CALEB,
  • 00:10:44.120 --> 00:10:45.160
  • "GO BACK AND TRY AGAIN.
  • 00:10:45.160 --> 00:10:47.100
  • THIS IS YOUR TIME, THIS
  • 00:10:47.100 --> 00:10:48.260
  • IS YOUR MOMENT; YOUR
  • 00:10:48.260 --> 00:10:50.190
  • DESTINY IS CALLING OUT
  • 00:10:50.190 --> 00:10:52.000
  • TO YOU." YOU HAVE TO BE
  • 00:10:52.000 --> 00:10:53.190
  • LIKE CALEB. YOU CAN'T
  • 00:10:53.190 --> 00:10:54.250
  • HAVE A WEAK, DEFEATED,
  • 00:10:54.250 --> 00:10:56.160
  • GIVE-UP SPIRIT. "I'LL
  • 00:10:56.160 --> 00:10:57.290
  • TAKE THE EASY WAY OUT,
  • 00:10:57.290 --> 00:10:59.120
  • I'LL SETTLE FOR SECOND
  • 00:10:59.120 --> 00:11:00.040
  • BEST, I DON'T WANT TO
  • 00:11:00.040 --> 00:11:01.030
  • PUT FORTH THE EFFORT."
  • 00:11:01.030 --> 00:11:02.150
  • IF YOU DON'T STIR IT UP,
  • 00:11:02.150 --> 00:11:04.000
  • YOU CAN MISS WHO YOU WERE
  • 00:11:04.000 --> 00:11:05.220
  • CREATED TO BE. YOU MAY
  • 00:11:05.220 --> 00:11:07.060
  • HAVE BEEN KNOCKED DOWN,
  • 00:11:07.060 --> 00:11:08.150
  • BUT YOU'VE GOT TO GET
  • 00:11:08.150 --> 00:11:09.140
  • BACK UP AGAIN AND SAY,
  • 00:11:09.140 --> 00:11:10.220
  • "GOD, GIVE ME THE SAME
  • 00:11:10.220 --> 00:11:11.210
  • MOUNTAIN. I DON'T WANT
  • 00:11:11.210 --> 00:11:13.040
  • A SUBSTITUTE. I DON'T
  • 00:11:13.040 --> 00:11:14.150
  • I'M GOING AFTER WHAT
  • 00:11:16.000 --> 00:11:17.090
  • YOU'VE PLACED IN MY
  • 00:11:17.090 --> 00:11:18.020
  • HEART."
  • 00:11:18.020 --> 00:11:19.110
  • IF YOU WILL REMEMBER YOUR
  • 00:11:19.110 --> 00:11:20.150
  • DREAM LIKE THAT, GOD WILL
  • 00:11:20.150 --> 00:11:22.040
  • HELP YOU TO ACCOMPLISH
  • 00:11:22.040 --> 00:11:23.140
  • EARLY ON.
  • 00:11:24.230 --> 00:11:26.170
  • I SAW A REPORT ABOUT THIS
  • 00:11:26.170 --> 00:11:27.210
  • MAN. HE WAS RAISED IN A
  • 00:11:27.210 --> 00:11:29.150
  • VERY DYSFUNCTIONAL
  • 00:11:29.150 --> 00:11:30.220
  • ENVIRONMENT, IN GOVERNMENT
  • 00:11:30.220 --> 00:11:32.110
  • HOUSING, VERY LOW INCOME.
  • 00:11:32.110 --> 00:11:34.280
  • HIS FATHER WAS NOT A PART
  • 00:11:34.280 --> 00:11:36.050
  • OF HIS LIFE. HIS MOTHER,
  • 00:11:36.050 --> 00:11:37.230
  • A TEENAGER, WAS NEVER
  • 00:11:37.230 --> 00:11:39.070
  • AROUND. FROM THE TIME HE
  • 00:11:39.070 --> 00:11:41.060
  • WAS A LITTLE BOY, HE HAD
  • 00:11:41.060 --> 00:11:43.010
  • A DREAM TO BECOME A
  • 00:11:43.010 --> 00:11:44.060
  • WRITER. HE WENT TO SCHOOL,
  • 00:11:44.060 --> 00:11:46.050
  • BUT THERE WAS NO STRUCTURE
  • 00:11:46.050 --> 00:11:48.020
  • IN HIS HOUSE, NO GUIDANCE.
  • 00:11:48.020 --> 00:11:50.000
  • AT 15, HE DROPPED OUT OF
  • 00:11:50.000 --> 00:11:51.130
  • SCHOOL. HE HAD NEVER
  • 00:11:51.130 --> 00:11:52.260
  • LEARNED HOW TO READ OR
  • 00:11:52.260 --> 00:11:54.050
  • WRITE. HE WAS SO
  • 00:11:54.050 --> 00:11:56.020
  • EMBARRASSED BY IT HE
  • 00:11:56.020 --> 00:11:57.250
  • STARTED DRINKING TRYING
  • 00:11:57.250 --> 00:11:59.050
  • TO NUMB THE PAIN. FOR 35
  • 00:11:59.050 --> 00:12:01.060
  • YEARS, ALL HE DID WAS
  • 00:12:01.060 --> 00:12:02.240
  • HANG OUT ON THE STREETS
  • 00:12:02.240 --> 00:12:04.060
  • AND DRINK WITH HIS
  • 00:12:04.060 --> 00:12:05.090
  • BUDDIES. ONE DAY SOMETHING
  • 00:12:05.090 --> 00:12:07.140
  • ROSE UP IN HIM LIKE FIRE
  • 00:12:07.140 --> 00:12:09.150
  • ON THE INSIDE. HE TOLD
  • 00:12:09.150 --> 00:12:11.060
  • HIS BUDDIES, "THIS IS THE
  • 00:12:11.060 --> 00:12:12.220
  • LAST TIME YOU WILL EVER
  • 00:12:12.220 --> 00:12:14.020
  • SEE ME TAKE ANOTHER DRINK
  • 00:12:14.020 --> 00:12:15.220
  • OF ALCOHOL. I AM FED UP
  • 00:12:15.220 --> 00:12:17.090
  • LIVING LIKE THIS." THEY
  • 00:12:17.090 --> 00:12:18.270
  • LAUGHED AND SAID, "YEAH
  • 00:12:18.270 --> 00:12:19.280
  • RIGHT!"
  • 00:12:19.280 --> 00:12:20.210
  • BUT THAT DAY WAS A TURNING
  • 00:12:20.210 --> 00:12:21.280
  • POINT. HE WAS INSTANTLY
  • 00:12:21.280 --> 00:12:23.120
  • SET FREE FROM THE ALCOHOL.
  • 00:12:23.120 --> 00:12:25.160
  • HE NEVER TOUCHED IT AGAIN.
  • 00:12:25.160 --> 00:12:27.240
  • 51 YEARS OLD, HE WENT BACK
  • 00:12:27.240 --> 00:12:29.230
  • TO WRITE, GOT HIS DIPLOMA.
  • 00:12:31.100 --> 00:12:33.080
  • HE WAS SO PROUD. HE
  • 00:12:33.080 --> 00:12:34.260
  • STARTED WRITING POETRY.
  • 00:12:34.260 --> 00:12:37.090
  • VERY TALENTED. THAT DREAM
  • 00:12:38.290 --> 00:12:40.230
  • HAD BEEN BURIED UNDER
  • 00:12:40.230 --> 00:12:41.280
  • DYSFUNCTION, UNDER
  • 00:12:41.280 --> 00:12:43.080
  • ADDICTIONS, BUT IT WAS
  • 00:12:43.080 --> 00:12:44.200
  • STILL ALIVE. AT ONE POINT
  • 00:12:44.200 --> 00:12:46.230
  • HE ENTERED THIS VERY
  • 00:12:46.230 --> 00:12:48.010
  • PRESTIGIOUS NATIONAL
  • 00:12:48.010 --> 00:12:49.090
  • WRITING CONTEST AND
  • 00:12:49.090 --> 00:12:51.080
  • FIRST PLACE.
  • 00:12:52.190 --> 00:12:54.040
  • TODAY AT 75, HE CONTINUES
  • 00:12:54.040 --> 00:12:55.160
  • WRITING, INSPIRING OTHERS,
  • 00:12:55.160 --> 00:12:58.150
  • LETTING THEM KNOW THAT
  • 00:12:58.150 --> 00:12:59.230
  • IT'S NEVER TOO LATE TO
  • 00:12:59.230 --> 00:13:01.020
  • ACCOMPLISH YOUR DREAMS.
  • 00:13:01.020 --> 00:13:02.250
  • WHAT AM I SAYING? WHAT
  • 00:13:02.250 --> 00:13:04.020
  • YOU GAVE UP ON, GOD
  • 00:13:04.020 --> 00:13:05.290
  • DIDN'T GIVE UP ON. WHAT
  • 00:13:05.290 --> 00:13:07.260
  • YOU WANTED TO DO EARLIER
  • 00:13:07.260 --> 00:13:09.080
  • IN LIFE, JUST BECAUSE
  • 00:13:09.080 --> 00:13:10.250
  • IT DIDN'T WORK OUT DOESN'T
  • 00:13:10.250 --> 00:13:12.090
  • MEAN THAT IT WENT AWAY.
  • 00:13:12.090 --> 00:13:14.250
  • IT'S STILL IN YOU.
  • 00:13:14.250 --> 00:13:16.220
  • JEREMIAH SAID, "YOUR
  • 00:13:16.220 --> 00:13:18.010
  • WORD, OH LORD, IS LIKE
  • 00:13:18.010 --> 00:13:20.000
  • FIRE SHUT UP IN MY BONES."
  • 00:13:20.000 --> 00:13:22.230
  • I BELIEVE THERE ARE SOME
  • 00:13:22.230 --> 00:13:24.050
  • DREAMS SHUT UP IN YOU.
  • 00:13:24.050 --> 00:13:26.100
  • LIKE FIRE, YOU'RE GOING
  • 00:13:26.100 --> 00:13:27.230
  • TO FEEL YOUR DESTINY
  • 00:13:27.230 --> 00:13:29.030
  • CALLING OUT. IT MAY NOT
  • 00:13:29.030 --> 00:13:30.230
  • HAVE HAPPENED THE FIRST
  • 00:13:30.230 --> 00:13:31.140
  • TIME. THE LOAN DIDN'T
  • 00:13:31.140 --> 00:13:32.280
  • GO THROUGH. YOU DIDN'T
  • 00:13:32.280 --> 00:13:34.160
  • GET CHOSEN FOR THE PART.
  • 00:13:34.160 --> 00:13:36.090
  • THE MEDICAL REPORT WASN'T
  • 00:13:36.090 --> 00:13:37.060
  • GOOD. THAT'S OKAY. THIS
  • 00:13:37.060 --> 00:13:38.150
  • IS A NEW DAY. WHAT GOD
  • 00:13:38.150 --> 00:13:40.030
  • STARTED, HE'S GOING TO
  • 00:13:40.030 --> 00:13:41.160
  • FINISH. YOU MAY HAVE
  • 00:13:41.160 --> 00:13:43.070
  • MISSED SOME OPPORTUNITIES
  • 00:13:43.070 --> 00:13:44.190
  • BUT GOD KNOWS HOW TO
  • 00:13:44.190 --> 00:13:46.050
  • MAKE UP FOR LOST TIME.
  • 00:13:46.050 --> 00:13:48.170
  • HE'S GOING TO GIVE YOU
  • 00:13:48.170 --> 00:13:49.110
  • ANOTHER CHANCE. HE SAID
  • 00:13:49.110 --> 00:13:51.160
  • IN THE BOOK OF JOEL,
  • 00:13:51.160 --> 00:13:52.170
  • "I WILL RESTORE THE YEARS
  • 00:13:52.170 --> 00:13:54.120
  • THAT HAVE BEEN STOLEN."
  • 00:13:54.120 --> 00:13:56.130
  • YOU MAY HAVE LOST YEARS
  • 00:13:56.130 --> 00:13:57.260
  • BECAUSE SOMEBODY ELSE
  • 00:13:57.260 --> 00:13:59.110
  • PUT YOU AT A DISADVANTAGE.
  • 00:13:59.110 --> 00:14:01.130
  • OR YEARS BECAUSE OF YOUR
  • 00:14:01.130 --> 00:14:02.100
  • OWN CHOICES. GOD KNOWS
  • 00:14:02.100 --> 00:14:04.000
  • HOW TO MAKE UP FOR IT.
  • 00:14:04.000 --> 00:14:05.220
  • HE'S STILL GOING TO GET
  • 00:14:05.220 --> 00:14:06.130
  • YOU TO WHERE YOU'RE
  • 00:14:06.130 --> 00:14:07.090
  • SUPPOSED TO BE.
  • 00:14:07.090 --> 00:14:09.180
  • THIS IS WHAT HAPPENED TO
  • 00:14:09.180 --> 00:14:10.180
  • GOD GAVE HIM A DREAM
  • 00:14:12.120 --> 00:14:14.030
  • THAT ONE DAY HE WOULD
  • 00:14:14.030 --> 00:14:15.010
  • RULE A NATION. IN THIS
  • 00:14:15.010 --> 00:14:16.200
  • DREAM, HE SAW HIS
  • 00:14:16.200 --> 00:14:18.030
  • BROTHERS BOWING DOWN
  • 00:14:18.030 --> 00:14:19.180
  • BEFORE HIM. JOSEPH SHOULD
  • 00:14:19.180 --> 00:14:21.110
  • HAVE USED MORE WISDOM AND
  • 00:14:21.110 --> 00:14:22.240
  • NOT TOLD HIS BROTHERS
  • 00:14:22.240 --> 00:14:24.100
  • CERTAIN THINGS YOU SHOULD
  • 00:14:26.050 --> 00:14:27.020
  • KEEP TO YOURSELF. SOME
  • 00:14:27.020 --> 00:14:28.260
  • PEOPLE CAN'T HANDLE WHAT
  • 00:14:28.260 --> 00:14:30.100
  • GOD'S PUT IN YOU. THEY
  • 00:14:30.100 --> 00:14:32.050
  • WON'T CELEBRATE YOU,
  • 00:14:32.050 --> 00:14:33.220
  • THEY'LL BE JEALOUS, FIND
  • 00:14:33.220 --> 00:14:34.210
  • FAULT AND BE CRITICAL.
  • 00:14:34.210 --> 00:14:36.020
  • ONE DAY, JOSEPH WENT TO
  • 00:14:36.020 --> 00:14:37.150
  • SEE HIS 10 BROTHERS.
  • 00:14:37.150 --> 00:14:39.110
  • WHEN HE WALKED UP, ONE
  • 00:14:39.110 --> 00:14:40.140
  • OF THEM SAID SARCASTICALLY,
  • 00:14:40.140 --> 00:14:42.180
  • "HERE COMES THE DREAMER."
  • 00:14:42.180 --> 00:14:44.220
  • THEY WEREN'T UPSET BECAUSE
  • 00:14:44.220 --> 00:14:46.110
  • HE WAS THEIR FATHER'S
  • 00:14:46.110 --> 00:14:47.190
  • FAVORITE CHILD. THEY
  • 00:14:47.190 --> 00:14:49.070
  • WEREN'T UPSET BECAUSE
  • 00:14:49.070 --> 00:14:50.140
  • HE WAS WEARING A COAT OF
  • 00:14:50.140 --> 00:14:51.220
  • MANY COLORS, A COAT THAT
  • 00:14:51.220 --> 00:14:53.090
  • REPRESENTS FAVOR. THEY
  • 00:14:53.090 --> 00:14:54.240
  • WERE UPSET BECAUSE HE
  • 00:14:54.240 --> 00:14:56.090
  • HAD A DREAM. THEY WERE
  • 00:14:56.090 --> 00:14:58.160
  • OFFENDED BECAUSE HE WAS
  • 00:14:58.160 --> 00:15:00.030
  • DETERMINED TO BREAK OUT
  • 00:15:00.030 --> 00:15:01.110
  • OF THE MOLD, TO DO
  • 00:15:01.110 --> 00:15:02.140
  • SOMETHING GREAT, TO
  • 00:15:02.140 --> 00:15:03.210
  • LEAVE HIS MARK.
  • 00:15:03.210 --> 00:15:05.040
  • THEY WOULD'VE BEEN FINE
  • 00:15:05.040 --> 00:15:06.030
  • IF HE WAS CONTENT TO BE
  • 00:15:06.030 --> 00:15:07.160
  • AVERAGE, TO ACCEPT THE

  • SUPPLY, ONE OF THE MOST
  • 00:20:01.100 --> 00:20:02.260
  • IMPORTANT POSITIONS OF
  • 00:20:02.260 --> 00:20:04.020
  • THE SAME ONES THAT THREW
  • 00:20:06.040 --> 00:20:07.230
  • HIM INTO A PIT, THEY
  • 00:20:07.230 --> 00:20:09.030
  • TRAVELED A LONG DISTANCE
  • 00:20:09.030 --> 00:20:11.100
  • AND SHOWED UP AT THE
  • 00:20:11.100 --> 00:20:12.140
  • PALACE LOOKING FOR FOOD.
  • 00:20:12.140 --> 00:20:14.200
  • THEY WERE RIGHT BEFORE
  • 00:20:14.200 --> 00:20:15.190
  • THEY DIDN'T RECOGNIZE
  • 00:20:17.030 --> 00:20:18.210
  • WHO JOSEPH WAS. YOU CAN
  • 00:20:18.210 --> 00:20:20.290
  • IMAGINE THIS IS A VERY
  • 00:20:20.290 --> 00:20:23.060
  • DRAMATIC MOMENT FOR
  • 00:20:23.060 --> 00:20:24.050
  • JOSEPH. THESE ARE THE
  • 00:20:24.050 --> 00:20:25.230
  • BROTHERS THAT BETRAYED
  • 00:20:25.230 --> 00:20:26.200
  • HIM. THESE ARE THE
  • 00:20:26.200 --> 00:20:27.280
  • BROTHERS THAT CAUSED

  • HIM ALL THE HEARTACHE
  • 00:20:28.240 --> 00:20:29.260
  • AND PAIN. YOU WOULD THINK
  • 00:20:29.260 --> 00:20:31.120
  • JOSEPH WOULD BE ANGRY,
  • 00:20:31.120 --> 00:20:32.220
  • BITTER, VINDICTIVE.
  • 00:20:32.220 --> 00:20:34.240
  • THIS WAS HIS CHANCE TO
  • 00:20:34.240 --> 00:20:35.190
  • SCRIPTURE SAYS, "WHEN
  • 00:20:37.110 --> 00:20:39.000
  • JOSEPH SAW HIS BROTHERS,
  • 00:20:39.000 --> 00:20:40.240
  • HE REMEMBERED HIS DREAM.
  • 00:20:40.240 --> 00:20:43.070
  • HE DIDN'T REMEMBER THE
  • 00:20:43.070 --> 00:20:44.110
  • HURT, HE DIDN'T REMEMBER
  • 00:20:44.110 --> 00:20:46.050
  • NIGHTS, THE TIMES HE WAS
  • 00:20:47.230 --> 00:20:49.080
  • CONFUSED. HE REMEMBERED
  • 00:20:49.080 --> 00:20:50.280
  • THE PROMISE. HE
  • 00:20:50.280 --> 00:20:52.170
  • REMEMBERED WHAT GOD
  • 00:20:52.170 --> 00:20:53.200
  • HAD SPOKEN TO HIM. NOW
  • 00:20:53.200 --> 00:20:55.180
  • ALL THESE BAD BREAKS,
  • 00:20:55.180 --> 00:20:56.220
  • IT LOOKED LIKE JOSEPH
  • 00:20:56.220 --> 00:20:57.220
  • MISSED HIS DESTINY.
  • 00:20:57.220 --> 00:20:59.140
  • THE WHOLE TIME, GOD WAS

  • DIRECTING HIS STEPS,
  • 00:21:00.270 --> 00:21:02.150
  • LEADING HIM, GUIDING HIM.
  • 00:21:02.150 --> 00:21:04.100
  • IT WAS ALL A PART OF THE
  • 00:21:04.100 --> 00:21:05.220
  • PROCESS TO GET HIM TO
  • 00:21:05.220 --> 00:21:07.000
  • WHERE HE WAS SUPPOSED
  • 00:21:07.000 --> 00:21:07.290
  • TO BE.
  • 00:21:07.290 --> 00:21:09.130
  • WHEN GOD PUTS A DREAM IN
  • 00:21:09.130 --> 00:21:10.160
  • YOUR HEART, WHEN HE GIVES
  • 00:21:10.160 --> 00:21:12.020
  • YOU A PROMISE, IT DOESN'T

  • MEAN THAT IT'S GOING TO
  • 00:21:13.110 --> 00:21:14.260
  • COME TO PASS WITH NO
  • 00:21:14.260 --> 00:21:16.050
  • OPPOSITION, NO DELAYS,
  • 00:21:16.050 --> 00:21:18.050
  • NO ADVERSITY. THERE WILL
  • 00:21:18.050 --> 00:21:19.240
  • BE THINGS THAT YOU DON'T
  • 00:21:19.240 --> 00:21:21.090

  • PLENTY OF OPPORTUNITIES
  • 00:21:23.100 --> 00:21:24.260
  • TO GET NEGATIVE AND
  • 00:21:24.260 --> 00:21:25.260
  • THINK, "I MUST NOT HAVE
  • 00:21:25.260 --> 00:21:26.200
  • HEARD GOD RIGHT."
  • 00:21:26.200 --> 00:21:28.080
  • IN THOSE TOUGH TIMES, YOU
  • 00:21:28.080 --> 00:21:29.190
  • HAVE TO DO LIKE JOSEPH
  • 00:21:29.190 --> 00:21:31.060
  • AND REMEMBER YOUR DREAM.
  • 00:21:31.060 --> 00:21:33.120
  • GOD HAS NOT BROUGHT YOU
  • 00:21:33.120 --> 00:21:34.230
  • THIS FAR TO LEAVE YOU.
  • 00:21:34.230 --> 00:21:36.180
  • HE HAS YOU IN THE PALM
  • 00:21:36.180 --> 00:21:37.230
  • OF HIS HAND. HE'S
  • 00:21:37.230 --> 00:21:39.090
  • DIRECTING YOUR STEPS.
  • 00:21:39.090 --> 00:21:41.020
  • NOW DO YOUR PART, DARE
  • 00:21:41.020 --> 00:21:42.070
  • TO TRUST HIM, DARE TO
  • 00:21:42.070 --> 00:21:44.040
  • BELIEVE. LET HIM FIGHT
  • 00:21:44.040 --> 00:21:46.160
  • YOUR BATTLES. LET HIM
  • 00:21:46.160 --> 00:21:47.270
  • BE YOUR VINDICATOR. HE
  • 00:21:47.270 --> 00:21:49.110
  • "WELL, JOEL, I'M UPSET.
  • 00:21:50.280 --> 00:21:52.110
  • I DON'T UNDERSTAND IT.
  • 00:21:52.110 --> 00:21:53.190
  • I GOT THROWN INTO A PIT."
  • 00:21:53.190 --> 00:21:54.290
  • DON'T WORRY. ANOTHER

  • CARAVAN IS COMING TO
  • 00:21:56.050 --> 00:21:57.130
  • MOVE YOU ON TO YOUR

  • FRIEND LIED ABOUT ME.
  • 00:22:00.080 --> 00:22:01.160
  • I LOST A LOVED ONE. I
  • 00:22:01.160 --> 00:22:02.180
  • WENT THROUGH A DIVORCE."
  • 00:22:02.180 --> 00:22:03.250
  • DON'T GET BITTER. IT'S
  • 00:22:03.250 --> 00:22:04.250
  • JUST A DETOUR ON THE WAY
  • 00:22:04.250 --> 00:22:06.280
  • TO YOUR DESTINY. THE
  • 00:22:06.280 --> 00:22:08.120
  • PALACE IS COMING. THE
  • 00:22:08.120 --> 00:22:09.230
  • PROMISE IS ON TRACK.
  • 00:22:09.230 --> 00:22:11.100
  • THE DREAM WILL BE
  • 00:22:11.100 --> 00:22:11.290
  • FULFILLED.
  • 00:22:11.290 --> 00:22:13.130
  • THE SCRIPTURE SAYS,

  • "THESE LIGHT AFFLICTIONS
  • 00:22:14.210 --> 00:22:16.050
  • ARE FOR A MOMENT." WHEN
  • 00:22:16.050 --> 00:22:18.170
  • YOU FACE OPPOSITION,
  • 00:22:18.170 --> 00:22:20.040
  • THINGS DON'T GO YOUR
  • 00:22:20.040 --> 00:22:20.280
  • WAY, RECOGNIZE THAT
  • 00:22:20.280 --> 00:22:22.190
  • IT'S NOT PERMANENT.
  • 00:22:22.190 --> 00:22:24.220
  • THAT'S NOT YOUR FINAL
  • 00:22:24.220 --> 00:22:25.150
  • DESTINATION. QUIT
  • 00:22:25.150 --> 00:22:27.150
  • WORRYING ABOUT THINGS
  • 00:22:27.150 --> 00:22:28.180
  • THAT ARE ONLY TEMPORARY.
  • 00:22:28.180 --> 00:22:31.000
  • LIKE JOSEPH, THE PIT IS
  • 00:22:31.000 --> 00:22:32.140
  • TEMPORARY, THE INJUSTICE
  • 00:22:32.140 --> 00:22:34.010
  • IS TEMPORARY, AND THE
  • 00:22:34.010 --> 00:22:35.170
  • BETRAYAL IS NOT YOUR
  • 00:22:35.170 --> 00:22:36.280
  • PERMANENT HOME.
  • 00:22:36.280 --> 00:22:38.070
  • IT'S A TEMPORARY STOP.
  • 00:22:38.070 --> 00:22:40.080
  • THE PSALMIST PUT IT THIS
  • 00:22:40.080 --> 00:22:41.070
  • WAY: "PASSING THROUGH
  • 00:22:41.070 --> 00:22:42.210
  • THE VALLEY OF WEEPING."
  • 00:22:42.210 --> 00:22:44.250
  • IT DOESN'T SAY, "SETTLING
  • 00:22:44.250 --> 00:22:46.000
  • IN THE VALLEY", "GETTING
  • 00:22:46.000 --> 00:22:47.090
  • STUCK IN THE VALLEY",
  • 00:22:47.090 --> 00:22:48.260
  • "BUILDING YOUR HOUSE IN
  • 00:22:48.260 --> 00:22:49.200
  • THE VALLEY". THE VALLEY
  • 00:22:49.200 --> 00:22:51.040
  • IS TEMPORARY. YOU'RE
  • 00:22:51.040 --> 00:22:52.150
  • PASSING THROUGH IT.
  • 00:22:52.150 --> 00:22:53.290
  • MY CHALLENGE: QUIT
  • 00:22:53.290 --> 00:22:54.280
  • LOSING SLEEP OVER A
  • 00:22:54.280 --> 00:22:56.240
  • TEMPORARY STOP. QUIT
  • 00:22:56.240 --> 00:22:58.210
  • BEING DISCOURAGED OVER
  • 00:22:58.210 --> 00:22:59.270
  • SOMETHING THAT'S ONLY
  • 00:22:59.270 --> 00:23:01.050
  • FOR A SEASON. IT'S NOT
  • 00:23:01.050 --> 00:23:02.190
  • PERMANENT.
  • 00:23:02.190 --> 00:23:04.140
  • I WAS IN MY BACKYARD ONE
  • 00:23:04.140 --> 00:23:05.140
  • SO DEAD. IT WAS BROWN,
  • 00:23:06.290 --> 00:23:08.260
  • WORN OUT AND RUNDOWN
  • 00:23:08.260 --> 00:23:10.100
  • AND I CALLED THE MAN THAT
  • 00:23:10.100 --> 00:23:11.120
  • HELPS WITH MY LANDSCAPING
  • 00:23:11.120 --> 00:23:12.230
  • AND SAID, "WHAT HAPPENED
  • 00:23:12.230 --> 00:23:13.180
  • TO MY GRASS? WHY DID IT
  • 00:23:13.180 --> 00:23:14.230
  • DIE?" HE KIND OF LAUGHED
  • 00:23:14.230 --> 00:23:16.130
  • AND SAID, "JOEL, IT'S NOT
  • 00:23:16.130 --> 00:23:17.180
  • DEAD; IT'S JUST NOT IN
  • 00:23:17.180 --> 00:23:19.140
  • SEASON. IT'S DORMANT
  • 00:23:19.140 --> 00:23:21.110
  • RIGHT NOW, BUT IN A FEW
  • 00:23:21.110 --> 00:23:22.230
  • MONTHS IT WILL BE AS
  • 00:23:22.230 --> 00:23:23.280
  • SEE, I WAS WORRIED ABOUT
  • 00:23:26.140 --> 00:23:27.230
  • SOMETHING THAT WAS ONLY
  • 00:23:27.230 --> 00:23:29.010
  • TEMPORARY. I THOUGHT
  • 00:23:29.010 --> 00:23:30.220
  • THAT'S THE WAY IT WAS
  • 00:23:30.220 --> 00:23:31.230
  • ALWAYS GOING TO BE. WHEN
  • 00:23:31.230 --> 00:23:33.120
  • I REALIZED THAT THAT WAS
  • 00:23:33.120 --> 00:23:35.050
  • NORMAL, I NEVER WORRIED
  • 00:23:35.050 --> 00:23:36.130
  • ABOUT IT AGAIN. WHEN I
  • 00:23:36.130 --> 00:23:38.020
  • SAW MY BROWN GRASS,
  • 00:23:38.020 --> 00:23:39.050
  • I THOUGHT, "NO BIG DEAL.
  • 00:23:39.050 --> 00:23:40.110
  • JUST A MATTER OF TIME
  • 00:23:40.110 --> 00:23:41.050
  • BEFORE IT'S BACK TO
  • 00:23:41.050 --> 00:23:41.260
  • GREEN." ARE YOU WORRIED
  • 00:23:41.260 --> 00:23:43.090
  • ABOUT THINGS THAT ARE
  • 00:23:43.090 --> 00:23:44.140
  • ONLY TEMPORARY? LETTING
  • 00:23:44.140 --> 00:23:46.090
  • SOMETHING STEAL YOUR JOY
  • 00:23:46.090 --> 00:23:47.130
  • BECAUSE YOU THINK THAT'S
  • 00:23:47.130 --> 00:23:48.210
  • THE WAY IT'S ALWAYS GOING
  • 00:23:48.210 --> 00:23:49.180
  • TO BE? CAN I TELL YOU:
  • 00:23:49.180 --> 00:23:51.110
  • YOUR DREAM IS NOT DEAD,
  • 00:23:51.110 --> 00:23:53.270
  • IT'S JUST NOT IN SEASON.
  • 00:23:53.270 --> 00:23:56.010
  • YOUR TIME IS COMING. THE

  • RIGHT PEOPLE, THE RIGHT
  • 00:23:58.000 --> 00:23:58.280
  • BREAKS, FAVOR,
  • 00:23:58.280 --> 00:24:00.180
  • RESTORATION, VINDICATION,
  • 00:24:00.180 --> 00:24:02.040
  • THAT'S WHAT'S HEADED YOUR

  • "THESE LIGHT AFFLICTIONS
  • 00:24:04.100 --> 00:24:05.180
  • ARE FOR A MOMENT." IT
  • 00:24:05.180 --> 00:24:07.100
  • GOES ON TO SAY, "THEY
  • 00:24:07.100 --> 00:24:08.190

  • 00:24:10.170 --> 00:24:12.130
  • IN OTHER WORDS, THE

  • ADVERSITY IS TEMPORARY;
  • 00:24:13.120 --> 00:24:15.010
  • THE GLORY IS ETERNAL.
  • 00:24:15.010 --> 00:24:17.100
  • FRIENDS, STIR UP WHAT
  • 00:24:17.100 --> 00:24:18.160
  • GOD'S PUT ON THE INSIDE.

  • DISCOURAGED. IT'S
  • 00:24:31.060 --> 00:24:32.090
  • TEMPORARY. YOU'RE JUST
