| 0:00.0 | The following podcast is a Dear Media production. |
| 0:16.1 | Before we begin today's episode, which was recorded in June, I really want to pause and speak |
| 0:22.4 | from my heart about the unimaginable tragedy that has happened this July 4th weekend along |
| 0:28.3 | the Guadalupe River in the Texas Hill Country. So many precious lives, children, families, |
| 0:35.4 | were lost in that flooding. And honestly, it's hard for me, it's hard for all of us to wrap our minds around it. |
| 0:41.3 | As a fellow Texan, I feel this deeply. |
| 0:44.4 | As a former news anchor who covered stories like this, |
| 0:47.0 | I feel the angst waiting for every word from an elected official |
| 0:51.1 | and the pain listening to people's testimonies. |
| 0:55.9 | As a mom who once sent her own child to summer camp in that area, it really, really hits home. And I know many of you |
| 1:02.0 | feel the same. You're holding your loved ones closer. You're praying for families that you may never |
| 1:07.2 | meet, but whose heartbreak you can certainly feel. There is no easy way to make sense |
| 1:11.9 | out of any of this, but what I know and what I hold on to as a believer is that God is and always |
| 1:18.4 | will be on the throne, even when we don't understand, especially when we don't understand. He is near. |
| 1:25.7 | Psalm 3418 speaks to this. The Lord is close to the brokenhearted and saves |
| 1:31.4 | those who are crushed in spirit. Dear families touched by this tragedy, we see you, we grieve with you, |
| 1:38.5 | we lift you up in prayer, and any possible way that we can help meet your needs. May you feel surrounded by love, |
| 1:46.1 | and may you know that you are not alone. |
| 1:55.4 | Hi, everybody. Welcome to today's over 50 and flourishing. It looks like we are all in the season of wanting to flourish. And I'm so excited about today's episode because we started this, I'd say about three, four months ago maybe, where we talked about opening up the platform to your questions. And we call it Dear Dominique, where you can reach out to me. And if you |
| 2:19.2 | have a situation, a story, you find yourself in a season of life, and maybe you just want another |
| 2:25.6 | listening ear or maybe some guidance. And here's what I find happens too. With this segment, not only |
| 2:32.3 | will I chime in and offer my thoughts, but also when the video publishes, a lot of other people, especially on YouTube, will comment as well and say, oh, you know, I've been in that situation or I know how you're feeling. I think this. So you will not only be getting input and thoughts from me, but I can tell you this community rallies, |
