But thanks so much for tuning in today.

Thank you again for coming out. I like to start with something funny. I heard about these four Catholic ladies. They were bragging on their sons.

The first one said, my son is a priest. When he walks in the room, everyone calls him father.

The second said, my son is a bishop. When he walks in the room, everyone calls him your grace.

The third said, my son is a cardinal. When he walks in the room, everyone calls him your eminence.

The fourth lady said, my son is six foot three. Has broad shoulders.

Is incredibly good looking. Dresses impeccably well. When he walks in the room, all the ladies say, oh my God.

All right. Come on and say it like you mean it. 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 don't waste your pain. We all go through disappointments, setbacks, loss.

Pain is a part of life. It's easy to get discouraged, even bitter. I think why is this happening to me?

One of the best principles I've learned is don't put a question mark where God has put a period.

All of us have things we don't understand. One reason is we can't see the big picture for our lives.

If you have a puzzle on the front of the box, there's the picture. You see what it's supposed to look like.
