Hi, this is Joel and Victoria.

Thanks for listening to our podcast and thanks for supporting the ministry.

If you enjoyed today's message, why don't you be a blessing and share it with a friend.

We appreciate you and pray for God's very best in your life.

God bless you.

It's great to be with you today.

I hope you'll stay connected with us during the week through our daily podcast, our YouTube channel, social media.

We'll keep you encouraged and inspired.

I'd like to start with something funny.

And I heard about this elderly couple.

They were sitting on a swing celebrating their 60th wedding anniversary.

Feeling romantic, the husband said to his wife, honey, our love is tried and true.

She had difficulty hearing and asked him to repeat it.

He said it louder.

I said, our love is tried and true.

She still couldn't hear him.

Said, what?

Would you speak up? Frustrated, he shouted, I said,

our love is tried and true. She said, well, fine. I'm sick of you too. Okay, y'all, nothing inspiring.

But here we got ready? This is my Bible. I am what it says I am. I have what it says I have. I can do what it says I can do.

Today I will be taught the word of God. I boldly confess. My mind is alert. My heart is receptive.

I will never be the same. In Jesus name. God bless you. I want to talk to you today about choosing to be happy.
