| 0:00.0 | Hi, I'm Susie Larson. Thank you for listening to Susie Larson Live. Faith Radio podcasts are only possible because of your support. So thanks for giving and thanks for sharing with a friend. |
| 0:10.6 | Say, won't he do it? Yes, he will. |
| 0:15.4 | Won't he do it? Yes, he will. He'll take a stone. |
| 0:21.7 | Make it still. |
| 0:23.5 | Yes, he will. |
| 0:27.4 | Welcome to Susie Larson Live. |
| 0:29.5 | Always so honored to get to spend this time with you. |
| 0:32.1 | In fact, I look forward to bringing you conversations every single day that hopefully inspire you in your faith walk, that deepen your |
| 0:39.1 | understanding of God's Word, and that heightens your awareness of his very real presence in your |
| 0:44.4 | life. I don't know if you caught yesterday's show. And I know friends listen to podcasts at all |
| 0:48.4 | different times, so you might not know what yesterday's show was. But we talked to Pastor Alan Wright. |

| 1:30.1 | The story you tell yourself matters so very much. In fact, the story you tell yourself in the |
| 1:36.3 | not yet, in the time between the promise and its fulfillment will really clearly impact how |
| 1:42.4 | you fare on the other side. It will impact the treasures that you take out of |
| 1:47.6 | this season. It'll impact if you're going to see yourself as stuck, kind of a have-not, |
| 1:53.4 | or if you see yourself as passing through the valley of not yet. So God wants to establish |
| 2:00.3 | you and strengthen you and remind you who you are when you're |
| 2:03.8 | not getting what you want from him. The enemy wants so much for you to rehearse your fears, |
