Welcome to 15 Minutes in the Word with New York Times best-selling author Joyce Meyer.

On today's program, Joyce will be teaching from her series, Trust God and Do Good.

The answer to everything is that simple. Trust God and do good.

It's so freeing to believe God has everything under control because that means we can spend less time

worrying and more time trying to help others. Now, here's Joyce with today's teaching.

What about? Well, first of all, God does work in miraculous ways, and he turns many things around in our lifetime and and we see the good

we see god work good out of stupid stuff you know but i'm also convinced of late that we need to be

paying a lot more attention to the thoughts of eternity than what we are.

I mean, to be honest, if you read the New Testament, they just talked about the coming of Christ all the time.

And that was 2,000 years ago.

And they thought he was going to come any moment.

See, we need to live as if we really believe Christ is going to show up any moment.

Boy, would that ever change a bunch of stuff.

Amen?

And however long our life is here, I mean, let's just say you live a really long time,

let's just say you live to be 100.

That's nothing compared to forever.

And so if I take my whole entire life here and I invest it for then, for eternity, it's still a good

deal. But the people who spend their whole life here trying to please themselves and get what they

want and mistreating other people and being concerned about things, man, they've got a whole

eternity to have to not be happy and wish they would have spent more time doing what was right

while they could have. I compliment you for being here today.
