He was despised, and we did not appreciate his worth or have any esteem for him."
00:01:03.853 --> 00:01:10.326
Not appreciate his worth or have any esteem for him." you know, jesus was really
00:01:10.393 --> 00:01:11.561
Or have any esteem for him." you know, jesus was really treated terribly by his own,
00:01:11.628 --> 00:01:15.732
You know, jesus was really treated terribly by his own, the very--
00:01:15.798 --> 00:01:19.169
Treated terribly by his own, the very-- his very own creation.
00:01:19.235 --> 00:01:20.537
The very-- his very own creation. you know, jesus was
00:01:20.603 --> 00:01:21.471

You know, jesus was there at the beginning when we were created.
00:01:22.438 --> 00:01:24.774
There at the beginning when we were created. we serve one god,
00:01:24.841 --> 00:01:26.910
When we were created. we serve one god, a triune god that
00:01:26.976 --> 00:01:29.245
We serve one god, a triune god that manifests in three persons.
00:01:29.312 --> 00:01:30.513
A triune god that manifests in three persons. so, god created
00:01:30.580 --> 00:01:32.782
Manifests in three persons. so, god created everything we see.
00:01:32.849 --> 00:01:33.416

00:01:33.483 --> 00:01:35.051
Everything we see. but jesus is god, too. he was there.
00:01:35.118 --> 00:01:37.387
But jesus is god, too. he was there. and so the very creation
00:01:37.453 --> 00:01:38.955
He was there. and so the very creation that he created despised
00:01:39.022 --> 00:01:40.890
And so the very creation that he created despised him and rejected him
00:01:40.957 --> 00:01:42.025
That he created despised him and rejected him and turned away from you.
00:01:42.091 --> 00:01:47.597
Him and rejected him and turned away from you. and we should never
00:01:47.664 --> 00:01:48.264
And turned away from you. and we should never feel sorry for ourselves.
00:01:48.331 --> 00:01:51.434
And we should never feel sorry for ourselves. i mean, even if the very
00:01:51.501 --> 00:01:52.335

He said, "warn them, urge them, encourage them." but it's not all supposed
00:02:58.167 --> 00:02:59.302

And unhappy people want to make other people unhappy.
00:18:30.799 --> 00:18:34.536
And unhappy people want to make other people unhappy. i don't know if they want

That's their mission, to make other people unhappy. and you're codependent
00:18:41.643 --> 00:18:44.413
To make other people unhappy. and you're codependent if you have to wait to see what
00:18:44.479 --> 00:18:45.747
And you're codependent if you have to wait to see what kind of mood somebody else
00:18:45.814 --> 00:18:46.949
If you have to wait to see what kind of mood somebody else is in before you decide what
00:18:47.015 --> 00:18:48.183
Kind of mood somebody else is in before you decide what kind of mood you're gonna be in.
00:18:48.250 --> 00:18:52.321

Cranky, hard to get along with people. and if they're in a bad mood,

With people. and if they're in a bad mood, then it ruins your day.

And if they're in a bad mood, then it ruins your day. and it doesn't have to.

You can get in that place where you rise above it. you know, the--
00:19:09.972 --> 00:19:11.773
The bible says

The bible says in isaiah 40:31, that they
00:19:14.676 --> 00:19:17.279
The bible says in isaiah 40:31, that they that wait upon the lord

In isaiah 40:31, that they that wait upon the lord shall renew their strength.
00:19:18.380 --> 00:19:20.249
That wait upon the lord shall renew their strength. they shall mount
00:19:20.315 --> 00:19:21.216
Shall renew their strength. they shall mount up like on eagle's wings.
00:19:21.283 --> 00:19:28.357
They shall mount up like on eagle's wings. and--i read this recently that
00:19:28.423 --> 00:19:35.330
There's not too many birds
00:19:35.397 --> 00:19:36.565
There's not too many birds that will bother an eagle,
00:19:36.632 --> 00:19:37.733
There's not too many birds that will bother an eagle, but a crow is kind of stupid.
00:19:37.799 --> 00:19:39.234
That will bother an eagle, but a crow is kind of stupid. and so they will
00:19:39.301 --> 00:19:43.005
But a crow is kind of stupid. and so they will try to pester eagles.
00:19:43.071 --> 00:19:45.707
And so they will try to pester eagles. and the eagle doesn't
00:19:45.774 --> 00:19:46.575
Try to pester eagles. and the eagle doesn't fight with the crow.
00:19:46.642 --> 00:19:48.577
And the eagle doesn't fight with the crow. the crow gets on his back
00:19:48.644 --> 00:19:49.745
Fight with the crow. the crow gets on his back and just picks, picks, picks.
00:19:49.811 --> 00:19:51.146
The crow gets on his back and just picks, picks, picks. and all the eagle does is just
00:19:51.213 --> 00:19:54.516
And just picks, picks, picks. and all the eagle does is just keep flying higher and higher
00:19:54.583 --> 00:19:56.251
And all the eagle does is just keep flying higher and higher and higher till they get
00:19:56.318 --> 00:19:58.520
Keep flying higher and higher and higher till they get so high that the crow can't
00:19:58.587 --> 00:20:00.455
And higher till they get so high that the crow can't breathe and he just falls off.
00:20:00.522 --> 00:20:03.025
So high that the crow can't breathe and he just falls off. >> [audience applauding]

The eagle that happened to be hatched in a barnyard and was raised with a chicken,
00:20:25.781 --> 00:20:26.815
To be hatched in a barnyard and was raised with a chicken, so he thought he was a chicken.

Into his image. we are predestined to be transformed into
00:22:58.533 --> 00:22:59.601
We are predestined to be transformed into the image of jesus christ.
00:22:59.668 --> 00:23:01.203
To be transformed into the image of jesus christ. and we are never going

>> announcer: as a society,
00:23:11.179 --> 00:23:12.380
>> announcer: as a society, we all wanna live

We all wanna live our best life.
00:23:13.715 --> 00:23:15.217
Our best life. we desire freedom

Peace, and purpose. but what does it look like
00:23:21.990 --> 00:23:22.891
But what does it look like when some of life's biggest
00:23:22.958 --> 00:23:24.059
When some of life's biggest battles keep us down?
00:23:24.125 --> 00:23:25.861
>> ginger: there are those

>> ginger: there are those times that we feel like we are
00:23:28.263 --> 00:23:29.564
Times that we feel like we are just going through the motions
00:23:29.631 --> 00:23:31.233
Just going through the motions in life and barely getting by.
00:23:31.299 --> 00:23:33.702
In life and barely getting by. well, let me tell you,
00:23:33.768 --> 00:23:34.870
Well, let me tell you, that's not how god
00:23:34.936 --> 00:23:36.404
That's not how god wants us to live.
00:23:36.471 --> 00:23:37.739
Jesus paid too big a price
00:23:38.640 --> 00:23:40.242
Jesus paid too big a price for us to remain defeated.
00:23:40.308 --> 00:23:42.511
For us to remain defeated. and like joyce says,
00:23:42.577 --> 00:23:44.312
And like joyce says, "god wants to heal
00:23:44.379 --> 00:23:45.847
"god wants to heal you everywhere you hurt,"
00:23:45.914 --> 00:23:48.283
You everywhere you hurt," because he wants
00:23:48.350 --> 00:23:49.384
Because he wants you to enjoy the life
00:23:49.451 --> 00:23:50.652
You to enjoy the life he's given you.
00:23:50.719 --> 00:23:52.087

He wants to make you whole again.
00:23:53.321 --> 00:23:55.190
You whole again. and there is not one
00:23:55.257 --> 00:23:56.157
And there is not one area in your life that
00:23:56.224 --> 00:23:57.392
Area in your life that is beyond his reach.
00:23:57.459 --> 00:23:58.627
Is beyond his reach. we have to apply
00:23:58.693 --> 00:24:00.061
We have to apply god's word to the areas
00:24:00.128 --> 00:24:01.630

00:24:01.696 --> 00:24:03.031
