[00:00:03] Speaker B: How are you on another fine, fine, beautiful day.

[00:00:12] Speaker B: We will be glad. We will rejoice in it.
[00:00:14] Speaker A: Rejoice in every single moment that you have under the sun in this cosmos, in this arrangement.
[00:00:18] Speaker B: Be thankful, be happy.
[00:00:19] Speaker A: Continually give God that sacrifice. Praise. Praise him and thank him. Be ye joyful and joyous. It's funny.
When we started the business, I had to learn upholstery.
[00:00:28] Speaker B: And I just. I really disliked it. And it's something I don't. I don't like.
[00:00:33] Speaker A: And as a result of my brother getting hurt, I'm thrown right back in it.
[00:00:38] Speaker B: And I mean completely.
[00:00:40] Speaker A: And on top of that, all the physical labor that needs to get out, I now have to do. And the amount of stuff he was
[00:00:46] Speaker B: doing, you don't realize until you get in it.
[00:00:50] Speaker A: And for me, it's.
I have to continually control my mind in order to not spin out, realizing that the next six months might be very, very difficult or the next year
[00:01:02] Speaker B: might be very difficult.
[00:01:04] Speaker A: You gotta, like, go to God and there's a season for everything. There's a time and a season for everything. There's a time to die and a time to. Or there's a time to sow, There's a time to plant. There's a time to judicially kill. There's a time to heal. There's a time for all these things. And you can't make crooked with what God makes straight.
You know, you can't straighten out something God wants you to do. But if you go to God, the preparations in the heart are in man. But it's God that directed the path. Like, God knows what I want. And yet this is the course he's chosen me to go through and to be thankful in those moments. I remember when we started, I was. We were like, you know, we were broke and there was nothing to do. There wasn't a lot of work. And all I wanted was to work again. Like, I just wanted to be busy and to work. Well, then you get it now. And I have that. I have the business quote, unquote, I wanted. And I'm working like crazy, man.
And you got to remember those times like God has given me everything in my heart. And God will give you the things that you want in your life and in your heart. But you have to understand that it doesn't come.
Life is not just butterflies and rainbows. It's difficult, but it's where you put your trust. You got to continually go back to God and know who you are. Know that all things are for all things work together for good. To those that love God, to those that are called according to purpose. God is our sufficiency. God's going to build you up. God knows every hair on your head. Be anxious for not one thing.
Don't think about tomorrow. Sufficient is the evil thereof today.
There's so many different verses you have to have in your mind. And I was going over a couple this morning. If you go to Romans, chapter 12, verse 1, verse 1, it says, I beseech you, therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable or well pleasing to God, which is your reasonable or rational service. And be not shaped or fashioned to this world. But be ye transfined, transformed, which is altering one's bearing, you got to alter your course. Be ye transformed by the renewing or the renovation of the mind to prove or to the proving what is good and acceptable or well pleasing, and to the end perfect will of God.
You have to renew and renovate your mind. And I love the thought of looking at a house. And when you look at a house, it looks a certain way. When you walk to the inside, you probably have a thought in your mind of what that inside is going to look like.
But God says to renovate. You can renovate the interior of your mind. And how do you do that? You do that by putting the Word in, by believing, by having a true and personal relationship with God, but believing what the Word says.
You have to have a firm conviction in this stuff.
Faith is specifically believing or having a conviction in what you hear. You got to hear the Word, you got to read the Word and actually believe what it says.
I say through the grace given unto me to every one or to every man that is among you, not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think, but to think soberly, according as God hath imparted or hath dealt to every one, or to each man the standard of the faith. For as we have many members in one body, or all members have not the same office, even if you're weak in faith, find somebody who's strong.
There's so many different offices in the body of believers. There's so many different places for everyone. And you don't have to be everything.
But when it comes to the Word, make it simple. In your life, pick a verse, believe it, stand on it, trust, trust in the Lord with all thine heart with all thy thoughts, with every the emotional revolvings of the mind, the seed of the. Your distinctive character. As he thinketh, so he is.
Trust in the Lord with all thine heart and lean not unto thine own understanding or thine own discernment in all thy ways. Acknowledge him and he shall. God shall absolutely direct thy path.
That's where you have to go in your mind. That's where I'm going. That's certainly where I'm going. Like God, you got to get me through this.
[00:05:20] Speaker B: I don't.
[00:05:21] Speaker A: This is the fact that this is going to be going on over and over and over and over again every day. It's like Groundhog's day. It is what it is.
But knowing that God, you know, he worketh with us. Tribulation, worketh your patience. Patience experience and experience hope. The expectation of future good and hope will never cause you shame.
You got to live through the prism of love and of life and knowing that God's there for you. And this is going to be a joy.
Pray the big prayers today. Lift everything up in the name of Jesus Christ. When you pray, it's always to God, never to Jesus Christ. It's to God. Pray to God. Lifting it up in the name of Jesus Christ with that sacrifice of thanksgiving.
[00:06:00] Speaker B: Have a great day.
[00:06:00] Speaker A: God bless you and your family.
[00:06:02] Speaker B: Talk to you tomorrow.
[00:06:15] Speaker A: Well, Heavenly Father, thank you so much
[00:06:17] Speaker B: just for everything you do for us. I pray that you continually open up your word. I thank you for the little journey I'm on with that. That you. You just show me the truth of it and that I can understand it in order to teach it. I thank you again for the moments of my life. I pray for today and all the orders that need to get out and that you continually bring the right people in to get this stuff done. That the pressure and that the.
That all of it doesn't fall on my shoulders. Father, I thank you for my sister in law and everything that she's going through. I pray for their family that they can get through this time. I also pray for my brother again that you heal his hand completely and fully. That he has full function and strength and feeling. I thank you for each and every one of your believers out there that you take care of them, that you bless them. If there's anything that I need to do, you put that on my heart and let me know.
[00:07:02] Speaker A: Father.
[00:07:02] Speaker B: And again I thank you for your son and what he did in order that we can live this way. I lift up a great day to you in the name of My Lord and Savior Christ Jesus.
