0:08.0 | just for you to break it down a little more. Take it a little deeper. I hope you enjoy |
0:13.7 | this overflow message. Let me know. Let's go. |
0:21.8 | We have a choice to make today, boom. Corrupted, created. Old self, new self, deceitful |
0:34.9 | desires, divinity within. What choice am I making today? The beauty of it is, which one |

1:56.1 | and all the scriptures, New Testament that reinforce this, you can't get away from it, |
2:00.7 | that God has things in mind for us, whether they be gifts that He wants to give us or |
2:07.7 | things He wants to do through us. And our decision to live into that or not to live into |
