📜 TODAY'S SCRIPTURE:
JOHN 16:4b-7 - “I did not say these things to you from the beginning, because I was with you. 5 But now I am going to him who sent me, and none of you asks me, ‘Where are you going?’ 6 But because I have said these things to you, sorrow has filled your heart. 7 Nevertheless, I tell you the truth: it is to your advantage that I go away, for if I do not go away, the Helper will not come to you. But if I go, I will send him to you.

| 0:00.0 | Hey, my friends. Welcome back. It's time for the morning mindset. My name is Carrie Green. |
| 0:09.1 | I'm here to help you get your mind aligned with the truth of God's word for this day. |
| 0:15.6 | We need to think through a grid of biblical information. As we're looking at the crazy world |
| 0:22.0 | around us and as we're making decisions for ourselves and for our families. And that's what the |
| 0:26.6 | morning mindset is here to help you do. And we'll remind you tomorrow is our prayer episode. |
| 0:31.9 | We have an extra episode that comes out on Fridays that is longer in duration and is simply me |
| 0:38.4 | praying for requests that you the listeners have sent in. You still have time, most likely, |
| 0:44.3 | to get in your request. I usually receive them until noonish mountain time on Thursdays, |
| 0:50.0 | which is today. So if you have a request and it's before that time, please you can get it in |
| 0:55.4 | tomorrow by going to morning mindset media dot com slash prayer and hear it on tomorrow's |
| 1:00.5 | episode. If you have a request and you're listening after that time, go ahead and submit it. |
| 1:06.6 | We will include it in the next episode the following Friday. Okay, today we are looking at John |
| 1:12.8 | chapter 16, the last half of verse four all the way through verse seven. And this is Jesus |
| 1:19.7 | speaking to his disciples about the situation that they're going to be facing after he's |
| 1:24.9 | crucified and returns to the Father. He says, I did not say these things to you from the beginning |
| 1:31.6 | because I was with you. But now I am going to him who sent me and none of you asks me, |
| 1:38.3 | where are you going? But because I've said these things to you sorrow has filled your heart. |
| 1:44.5 | Nevertheless, I tell you the truth. It is to your advantage that I go away. For if I do not go |
| 1:51.8 | away, the helper will not come to you. But if I go, I will send him to you. |
| 1:59.5 | So friends, the context here is that Jesus has just told his disciples that he is going to be going |
| 2:05.6 | away. Now he's told them about the crucifixion, but he's also told them he's going to rise again |
| 2:11.3 | and he's told him he's going to leave and go to a place they cannot follow, which is heaven. |
