Hi, podcast family. I hope you guys are doing super well. This week on the Upper Room Dallas podcast, we have our Resurrection Sunday message where Miller is talking about our hearts and the health of our hearts and how sorrow and our hearts may last for the night when the day of trouble hits.

makes the heart sick. What's hope deferred? Hope deferred is you had an expectation that life was going to

go this way, but your reality is different than your expectation. And that chasm between expectation and reality,

if it's not filled, if that's not reconciled,
