| 0:21.9 | Welcome to Susie Larson Live. |
| 0:27.9 | I'm always so honored to get to spend this time with you. |
| 0:30.5 | In fact, I look forward to bringing you conversations every single day that hopefully inspire you in your faith walk, |
| 0:36.2 | that deepen your understanding of God's |
| 0:38.5 | word, and that heightens your awareness of his very real presence in your life. Often you hear |
| 0:43.8 | people say, I just want to get out of this place. I want just Jesus to come back. I've said it |

| 1:28.8 | In this present moment, in this present season of life on the earth for such a time as this, |
