A thought came to me. We have been taught how to grieve when somebody passes. We've been

taught that. There are books about it. You can Google it. We've been taught how to grieve

over losing a loved one. But I believe we have been under taught. How do you grieve over

what you thought was God's will but time revealed it wasn't? How do you handle when you

thought this was God and something shows you you missed it? See, sometimes stress can be

defined as the hearts way of grieving over what was not God's plan. Did y'all hear what I just said?

If I was a note, take I write that down. Sometimes stress is the hearts way of grieving over what was not God's plan.

How do you utilize disappointment and still maintain your joy? How do you utilize not getting it and

still maintaining your joy? How do you utilize grief and let go of the light that you thought you

would have by now but you don't have it and you still have joy? How do you handle and grieve over what

you thought was God's will but it wasn't? And we have to have this conversation because here in America

we are inspiring people to death and Western hemisphere Christianity. We are only preaching

about the God that blesses. We're only preaching about the God that has a breakthrough for you. So now we have people

who don't know how to handle loss and we don't know how to handle the know of God because we keep on

preaching the yes of God. We keep on preaching. It's coming of God but we don't know how to preach

and handle when God is saying no, this is not coming. This is not your season. This is not my will.

I have a different plan. It's not going to happen. We don't know how to handle that part.

We don't know how to handle the know of God. This is not my will of God and I've just arrived to this place.

You can really know that you're growing in your spiritual maturity when you begin to thank God over what you didn't get.

See, this side was just one collapse. I need to put my foot on the gas a little more.

I got to teach today some of us should have been praising God a little bit bigger because there's some stuff you should have

got but his will make sure that you didn't. There's some bullets you should have got but his plan made sure
