0:00.0	Everybody, what is going on? You know what time it is. You're listening to join the Journey podcast with your host, Emma, daughter.
0:08.8	Thanks for joining. I am in the podcast studio with today's Devo writer, Ms. Grace McKeon.
0:15.2	Hey, what's up? Thanks for having me today. Grace, I am so glad you're here. Tell us about you. Where do you serve? How are you involved
0:21.5	to Watermark? Yeah. So I've been going to Watermark for six years, which is crazy. And right now,
0:26.5	I currently serve with Watermark Health, which shout out Best Ministry. I think I learn about a new
0:31.9	country every time I go in, which is really cool and also says something about my geography
0:36.8	education growing up. It's awesome.
0:39.3	Do you do pastoral care? I do pastoral care, front desk. Yeah, so get to have a lot of cool

1:21.4	discontentment of just not being in school like I wanted to be and just yearning to be.
1:26.0	Med school? Yeah, medical school. Yeah. I was in a medical school like I wanted to be and just yearning to be. Med school? Yeah, medical school. Yeah. I was in a medical school
1:28.9	like I wanted to be and just yearning for a different season of life and really wanting to prove that I
1:34.9	could make it in medical school and just perform. And so that really stuck out to me when I was reading
1:39.4	that first section of Luke 5 and we're just reminded how the Lord meets us in our humility.
1:46.2	Absolutely. When you read this chapter, Luke 5, how do you live differently? So you're not on
