0:00.0	Hi, this is Joel in Victoria. Thanks for listening to our podcast and thanks for supporting the ministry.
0:06.0	If you enjoyed today's message, why don't you be a blessing and share it with a friend.
0:10.0	We appreciate you and pray for God's very best in your life.
0:14.0	I hope you'll stop by and be a part of one of our services. I promise you we'll make you feel right at home.
0:20.0	But thanks so much for tuning in. I like to start with something funny each week.
0:24.0	I heard about this young man he was talking to God and he said, God,
0:28.0	what's a million years like to you, God said a million years to me is like one second to you. He said, well, God, what's a million dollars like to you. God said a million dollars to me is like one penny to you.

1:39.6	person faces difficulties. How we view these challenges is going to determine whether
1:45.8	we enjoy life or we just endure it. It's really not the size of the problem that's important.
1:52.3	It's our perspective of that problem. It's how big or how small we make it in our own minds.
1:58.2	You can have a huge problem but if you know that God is in control and that He's working
