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

On today's program, Joyce will share how we can discover who God made us to be and live authentically.

God has given each of us unique talents and abilities to fulfill his purposes for our life,

but we may not recognize them right away.

We may be feeling pressure to live up to

someone else's expectations, or we might be comparing ourselves to people around us. But there's

good news. God loves us just the way we are. Today, discover how to let God use all of us,

both our strengths and our weaknesses, so we can be transformed by him and used to do something

more wonderful than we could

ever dream. Now, here's Joyce with today's teaching. You know, I have a very unique message

that I'm going to teach tonight, but it's something that I really feel, God put on my heart,

and I feel it's something that a lot of people will appreciate

when they really start thinking about it.

This message is called, it's okay not to be okay.

It's okay not to be okay.

I really feel that we need to become authentic in the church

and be honest about what we're going through

and be honest with one another.

And I think there's a couple of reasons why people

hold back on that.

One, most people are not very good at keeping your secrets.

And that's something that I feel really needs to change.
