Summary

Fear activates.

Over the Christmas break my son had a very serious health crisis. And we cried out to God. And God moved. My faith was increased and everyone who has heard the story was impacted to trust God more.

Have you ever heard, "There are no atheists in foxholes"? People want hope to grab onto. And when reason fails to give that hope, the power of God can come in to help people experience His love.

This is an opportunity to be an example to all who you know.

Don't be the victim who numbs your fear, but the leader who stands in faith.

Believe me I've been the former, but I am want us to stand up and encourage and pray and love those who are in fear right now.

As Jesus-followers, we are lucky to know that this earth is not the end. But how do we encourage and pray for our neighbors? How can you start now? You may have a lot more time on your hands. How can you start to encourage and help others even RIGHT NOW?

Encourage your spouse. Love them generously so they can do their best in the world right now. Prioritize peace in your home so the storm isn't ALSO raging in your home.

And you'll also get my 8 Tips to Stay Present in Intimacy

Love you and I'm praying for you,

0:22.6	All right, welcome. This is Bella Rose. Listen, thank you so much for tuning in. I'm sure that
0:30.4	there's a lot going on in your heart and mind right now. And I want to speak to you about that.
0:40.6	I titled this broadcast,
0:43.8	use this crisis wisely.
0:48.0	And the reason is because
0:50.8	there's nothing that motivates quite like a crisis. We are so motivated to
1:00.5	respond in fearful ways. And I think you can turn on anything and see that that is the response of the world
1:15.5	because there's a lot of fear, a lot of concern, a lot of even paranoia. And certainly there's
1:25.0	much cause for caution and carefulness but what i want to invite you to do
1:33.3	is consider the fact that you are a leader in every circle in every sphere that you are in
1:42.4	now it really doesn't matter if you are the founder of the organization
1:47.3	or you happen to be a part. It doesn't matter if you are the pastor of the church or you happen to be a
1:53.1	member. It doesn't matter if you are the leader of the family or you're just the shy brother or sister. What matters is that you impact
2:05.3	every sphere and every circle that you are a part of, every single one, even the group of
2:12.6	social media members that you are a part of. You are a person that has influence. I love the quote from
2:22.2	Jane Goodall that says, what we do makes a difference. What kind of difference will you make?
2:31.0	I just think it's true that we all have influence.
2:36.7	And it's true in our marriages as well.
2:41.8	So let me tell you a story of what happened over the Christmas break 2019.
