0:05.4	Feeling sorry for yourself is just a waste of time.
0:10.2	And I don't, I don't mean that like, I don't care that you're hurting, but I've been, I've been
0:16.3	there done that. I waste a year sitting around feeling sorry for myself and God finally said,
0:21.6	you can be pitiful or powerful, but you can't be bogged, so take your pick.
0:34.8	There's four types of hearts that he's talking about, four kinds of soil.
0:39.8	While the good soil is very easy to understand, that's, that's not hard, that's the person who
0:44.5	sits here and I mean, man, they, they're focused, they get it. They're taking a few notes,
0:49.3	they're going to go home, they're going to study this thing until it becomes a reality in their life.

1:34.7	is the first one which is where the seed was scattered on the ground and Satan came immediately
1:42.3	and stole what was sown before it ever even had a chance to begin to take root, he stole it and
1:52.7	that actually is a hard heart. Do you know that you can have a hard heart and not even know that you
2:01.1	have a hard heart? But if you have a hard heart, you won't absorb the word of God or there will at
2:08.6	least be parts of it. Let's just say for example that I don't know, you've heard things or had a bad
2:17.2	experience with maybe giving money into a church or an organization that you found out later,
2:25.9	either stole or misused your money and so now you've got an attitude, I'm not, I'm not giving my
2:32.0	money to those people, I don't just not doing it. Well, you're the one that gets hurt by that,
