00:05:38.399 --> 00:05:42.720
We<00:05:38.560><c> haven't</c><00:05:38.819><c> seen</c><00:05:39.100><c> some</c><00:05:39.420><c> of</c><00:05:39.699><c> the</c><00:05:39.839><c> rest</c><00:05:40.120><c> of</c><00:05:40.300><c> us,</c><00:05:40.779><c> maybe</c><00:05:41.160><c> for</c><00:05:41.680><c> several</c><00:05:42.019><c> years,</c><00:05:42.500><c> or</c>

Well,<00:05:46.860><c> how</c><00:05:47.100><c> are</c><00:05:47.420><c> you,</c><00:05:47.639><c> and</c><00:05:48.000><c> how</c><00:05:48.240><c> are</c><00:05:48.360><c> things</c><00:05:48.620><c> back</c><00:05:48.980><c> home?</c>

00:05:49.379 --> 00:05:57.379
Well,<00:05:51.579><c> Epaphroditus</c><00:05:53.040><c> comes</c><00:05:53.800><c> to</c><00:05:55.300><c> visit</c><00:05:55.560><c> Paul,</c><00:05:56.779><c> bringing</c><00:05:57.100><c> a</c>

00:06:01.000 --> 00:06:04.079
He's<00:06:01.439><c> brought</c><00:06:01.600><c> a</c><00:06:01.819><c> generous</c><00:06:02.199><c> gift,</c><00:06:02.459><c> evidently,</c><00:06:03.019><c> from</c><00:06:03.279><c> them.</c>

00:06:04.220 --> 00:06:08.699
And<00:06:04.300><c> he's</c><00:06:04.560><c> traveled</c><00:06:04.680><c> a</c><00:06:04.800><c> long</c><00:06:05.100><c> way</c><00:06:05.779><c> to</c><00:06:06.899><c> bring</c><00:06:07.060><c> this</c><00:06:07.319><c> gift</c><00:06:07.540><c> to</c><00:06:07.699><c> Paul.</c>

00:06:08.899 --> 00:06:13.579
I<00:06:09.019><c> mean,</c><00:06:10.500><c> how</c><00:06:11.019><c> would</c><00:06:11.300><c> you</c><00:06:11.519><c> like</c><00:06:11.720><c> to</c><00:06:11.959><c> travel</c><00:06:12.379><c> the</c><00:06:12.660><c> way</c><00:06:13.100><c> he</c><00:06:13.379><c> had</c>

00:06:17.759 --> 00:06:20.800
We've<00:06:18.240><c> come</c><00:06:18.420><c> from</c><00:06:18.560><c> all</c><00:06:18.839><c> parts</c><00:06:19.120><c> of</c><00:06:19.279><c> the</c><00:06:19.279><c> world</c><00:06:19.839><c> to</c><00:06:20.079><c> this</c><00:06:20.240><c> Bible</c><00:06:20.540><c> school,</c>

00:06:20.899 --> 00:06:24.060
but<00:06:21.000><c> that's</c><00:06:21.379><c> thanks</c><00:06:21.740><c> to</c><00:06:22.639><c> the</c><00:06:22.819><c> fact</c><00:06:23.040><c> that</c><00:06:23.439><c> knowledge</c><00:06:23.680><c> has</c><00:06:23.899><c> been</c>

00:06:24.060 --> 00:06:26.980
increased<00:06:24.720><c> and</c><00:06:25.279><c> we're</c><00:06:25.480><c> able</c><00:06:25.699><c> to</c><00:06:25.899><c> run</c><00:06:26.139><c> to</c><00:06:26.379><c> and</c><00:06:26.660><c> fro.</c>

00:06:27.480 --> 00:06:28.899
But<00:06:27.620><c> it</c><00:06:27.740><c> wasn't</c><00:06:27.920><c> true</c><00:06:28.199><c> in</c><00:06:28.360><c> his</c><00:06:28.600><c> day.</c>

00:06:28.939 --> 00:06:31.600
They<00:06:29.100><c> put</c><00:06:29.379><c> one</c><00:06:29.720><c> foot</c><00:06:29.839><c> in</c><00:06:30.040><c> front</c><00:06:30.139><c> of</c><00:06:30.279><c> the</c><00:06:30.399><c> other</c><00:06:30.839><c> in</c><00:06:31.220><c> order</c><00:06:31.399><c> to</c>

00:06:31.600 --> 00:06:32.839
get<00:06:31.720><c> from</c><00:06:31.959><c> place</c><00:06:32.180><c> to</c><00:06:32.379><c> place.</c>

00:06:33.279 --> 00:06:37.779
The<00:06:33.439><c> distance</c><00:06:33.879><c> between</c><00:06:34.279><c> Philippi</c><00:06:35.459><c> and</c><00:06:36.040><c> Rome</c><00:06:36.500><c> was</c><00:06:37.319><c> equal</c><00:06:37.579><c> to</c>

00:06:37.779 --> 00:06:42.079
the<00:06:37.939><c> distance</c><00:06:38.259><c> from</c><00:06:38.560><c> Idlewild</c><00:06:39.800><c> to</c><00:06:40.439><c> Grants</c><00:06:40.819><c> Pass,</c><00:06:41.240><c> Oregon.</c>

00:06:43.100 --> 00:06:45.180
Now<00:06:43.339><c> some</c><00:06:43.519><c> of</c><00:06:43.699><c> you</c><00:06:43.899><c> are</c><00:06:44.160><c> from</c><00:06:44.459><c> Grants</c><00:06:44.879><c> Pass.</c>

00:06:45.180 --> 00:06:47.339
I<00:06:45.379><c> wonder</c><00:06:45.600><c> if</c><00:06:45.699><c> you</c><00:06:45.839><c> would</c><00:06:45.959><c> have</c><00:06:46.060><c> come</c><00:06:46.199><c> to</c><00:06:46.319><c> the</c><00:06:46.480><c> Bible</c><00:06:46.779><c> school</c>

00:06:47.339 --> 00:06:49.759
if<00:06:47.879><c> you</c><00:06:48.079><c> had</c><00:06:48.220><c> had</c><00:06:48.339><c> to</c><00:06:48.519><c> walk</c><00:06:48.800><c> here.</c>

00:06:50.139 --> 00:06:52.560
And<00:06:50.639><c> then</c><00:06:50.860><c> you</c><00:06:50.980><c> have</c><00:06:51.180><c> to</c><00:06:51.339><c> walk</c><00:06:51.600><c> back.</c>

00:06:53.319 --> 00:06:56.160
So<00:06:53.720><c> that's</c><00:06:54.199><c> what</c><00:06:54.699><c> Epaphroditus</c><00:06:55.500><c> had</c><00:06:55.720><c> gone</c><00:06:56.000><c> through.</c>

00:06:56.259 --> 00:06:59.360
He<00:06:56.319><c> probably</c><00:06:56.540><c> took</c><00:06:56.720><c> him</c><00:06:56.920><c> a</c><00:06:57.120><c> full</c><00:06:57.439><c> month</c><00:06:57.720><c> to</c><00:06:58.120><c> make</c><00:06:58.300><c> the</c><00:06:58.600><c> trip.</c>

00:07:00.379 --> 00:07:06.759
Now,<00:07:01.939><c> it</c><00:07:02.040><c> seems</c><00:07:02.319><c> that</c><00:07:02.540><c> Epaphroditus</c><00:07:03.519><c> was</c><00:07:04.259><c> not</c><00:07:04.560><c> only</c><00:07:05.620><c> to</c><00:07:06.500><c> bring</c>

00:07:06.759 --> 00:07:10.060
him<00:07:06.959><c> this</c><00:07:07.220><c> gift</c><00:07:07.560><c> and</c><00:07:07.740><c> bring</c><00:07:07.879><c> him</c><00:07:08.079><c> the</c><00:07:08.259><c> greetings</c><00:07:08.720><c> of</c><00:07:09.480><c> his</c><00:07:09.720><c> brethren,</c>

00:07:10.060 --> 00:07:13.959
but<00:07:10.680><c> he</c><00:07:10.860><c> also</c><00:07:11.259><c> was</c><00:07:11.480><c> to</c><00:07:11.720><c> stay</c><00:07:12.000><c> with</c><00:07:12.240><c> Paul</c><00:07:12.639><c> and</c><00:07:13.120><c> be</c><00:07:13.379><c> a</c><00:07:13.620><c> minister,</c>

00:07:14.040 --> 00:07:14.839
kind<00:07:14.220><c> of</c><00:07:14.360><c> a</c><00:07:14.540><c> servant,</c>

00:07:15.100 --> 00:07:17.939
to<00:07:15.220><c> do</c><00:07:15.319><c> what</c><00:07:15.459><c> he</c><00:07:15.639><c> could</c><00:07:15.740><c> to</c><00:07:15.980><c> help</c><00:07:16.160><c> Paul</c><00:07:16.860><c> while</c><00:07:17.060><c> he's</c><00:07:17.339><c> in</c><00:07:17.540><c> prison.</c>

00:07:18.279 --> 00:07:21.980
But<00:07:18.439><c> unfortunately,</c><00:07:19.259><c> Epaphroditus</c><00:07:20.180><c> gets</c><00:07:21.040><c> sick.</c>

00:07:22.439 --> 00:07:24.220
He's<00:07:22.839><c> sick</c><00:07:23.100><c> for</c><00:07:23.319><c> home</c><00:07:23.500><c> as</c><00:07:23.819><c> well.</c>

00:07:24.699 --> 00:07:26.860
And<00:07:24.839><c> he's</c><00:07:25.139><c> worried</c><00:07:25.399><c> about</c><00:07:25.660><c> his</c><00:07:25.860><c> people</c><00:07:26.100><c> back</c><00:07:26.420><c> home</c><00:07:26.579><c> because</c>

00:07:26.860 --> 00:07:28.279
he's<00:07:27.139><c> worried</c><00:07:27.279><c> that</c><00:07:27.399><c> they're</c><00:07:27.699><c> worried</c><00:07:27.860><c> about</c><00:07:28.100><c> him.</c>

00:07:28.300 --> 00:07:30.519
And<00:07:28.420><c> you</c><00:07:28.459><c> know,</c><00:07:28.560><c> that's</c><00:07:28.740><c> how</c><00:07:28.899><c> it</c><00:07:29.000><c> is</c><00:07:29.120><c> when</c><00:07:29.660><c> you</c><00:07:30.079><c> worry</c><00:07:30.300><c> because</c>

00:07:30.519 --> 00:07:31.399
your<00:07:30.680><c> mother</c><00:07:30.800><c> worries</c><00:07:31.000><c> about</c><00:07:31.259><c> you,</c>

00:07:31.399 --> 00:07:32.899
so<00:07:31.540><c> you</c><00:07:31.660><c> worry</c><00:07:31.759><c> about</c><00:07:31.920><c> her</c><00:07:32.040><c> because</c><00:07:32.160><c> she's</c><00:07:32.360><c> worried</c><00:07:32.459><c> about</c><00:07:32.639><c> you.</c>

00:07:32.920 --> 00:07:35.699
Well,<00:07:33.360><c> I</c><00:07:33.500><c> think</c><00:07:33.660><c> Epaphroditus</c><00:07:34.319><c> was</c><00:07:34.519><c> kind</c><00:07:34.699><c> of</c><00:07:34.800><c> like</c><00:07:35.019><c> that</c><00:07:35.199><c> about</c><00:07:35.560><c> the</c>

00:07:36.439 --> 00:07:40.160
And<00:07:36.839><c> so</c><00:07:37.060><c> Paul</c><00:07:37.399><c> decides</c><00:07:37.959><c> the</c><00:07:38.100><c> best</c><00:07:38.319><c> thing</c><00:07:38.480><c> to</c><00:07:38.600><c> do</c><00:07:38.740><c> is</c><00:07:39.000><c> send</c><00:07:39.220><c> him</c><00:07:39.379><c> back.</c>

00:07:40.459 --> 00:07:45.360
And<00:07:40.519><c> so</c><00:07:40.639><c> in</c><00:07:40.819><c> Philippians</c><00:07:41.139><c> chapter</c><00:07:41.519><c> 2</c><00:07:42.100><c> and</c><00:07:42.379><c> verse</c><00:07:42.620><c> 25,</c><00:07:44.279><c> Paul</c><00:07:44.300><c> says,</c>

00:07:55.660 --> 00:07:59.819
So<00:07:56.220><c> he</c><00:07:56.779><c> was</c><00:07:57.079><c> there</c><00:07:57.360><c> to</c><00:07:57.879><c> be</c><00:07:58.139><c> a</c><00:07:58.420><c> minister</c><00:07:58.720><c> to</c><00:07:59.040><c> the</c><00:07:59.240><c> needs</c><00:07:59.480><c> and</c><00:07:59.680><c> the</c>

00:12:28.519 --> 00:12:29.899

00:14:57.919 --> 00:15:01.279
And<00:14:58.240><c> finally,</c><00:14:58.940><c> the</c><00:14:59.080><c> husband</c><00:14:59.340><c> says,</c><00:14:59.899><c> my</c><00:15:00.000><c> wife</c><00:15:00.320><c> here,</c><00:15:00.879><c> she's</c><00:15:01.179><c> in</c>

00:15:04.080 --> 00:15:05.379
And<00:15:04.299><c> the</c><00:15:04.399><c> other</c><00:15:04.580><c> fellow</c><00:15:04.840><c> looked</c><00:15:05.120><c> at</c><00:15:05.279><c> her.</c>

00:15:05.539 --> 00:15:07.120
She<00:15:05.740><c> didn't</c><00:15:05.899><c> look</c><00:15:06.100><c> like</c><00:15:06.379><c> a</c><00:15:06.639><c> business</c><00:15:06.860><c> person.</c>

00:15:07.200 --> 00:15:08.259
He<00:15:07.240><c> says,</c><00:15:07.799><c> oh,</c><00:15:07.899><c> is</c><00:15:07.980><c> that</c><00:15:08.139><c> right?</c>

Yes,<00:15:08.539><c> she</c><00:15:09.080><c> manufactures</c><00:15:09.820><c> unhappiness.</c>

00:15:15.019 --> 00:15:17.019

without<00:15:49.600><c> having</c><00:15:49.820><c> somebody</c><00:15:50.220><c> miserable.</c>

00:15:52.440 --> 00:15:55.899
And<00:15:52.879><c> it's</c><00:15:53.019><c> so</c><00:15:53.379><c> sad,</c><00:15:53.679><c> because</c><00:15:53.919><c> we</c><00:15:54.059><c> don't</c><00:15:54.259><c> need</c><00:15:54.480><c> to</c><00:15:54.639><c> be</c><00:15:54.720><c> that</c><00:15:55.059><c> way.</c>

00:16:00.100 --> 00:16:02.340
And<00:16:00.299><c> I</c><00:16:00.399><c> think</c><00:16:00.460><c> some</c><00:16:00.700><c> people</c><00:16:00.860><c> think</c><00:16:01.080><c> that</c><00:16:01.480><c> miserableness</c><00:16:02.080><c> is</c>

00:16:02.340 --> 00:16:03.879

00:16:14.580 --> 00:16:15.960
I<00:16:14.659><c> think</c><00:16:14.799><c> I'll</c><00:16:14.960><c> be</c><00:16:15.100><c> miserable.</c>

00:16:16.980 --> 00:16:19.620
Well,<00:16:17.240><c> you</c><00:16:17.299><c> know</c><00:16:17.519><c> people</c><00:16:17.840><c> do</c><00:16:18.620><c> decide</c><00:16:18.980><c> to</c><00:16:19.120><c> be</c><00:16:19.299><c> miserable,</c>

00:16:19.899 --> 00:16:22.480
because<00:16:20.200><c> if</c><00:16:20.379><c> you</c><00:16:20.539><c> don't</c><00:16:20.720><c> decide</c><00:16:21.000><c> to</c><00:16:21.159><c> be</c><00:16:21.340><c> miserable,</c><00:16:21.600><c> you</c><00:16:21.840><c> won't</c><00:16:22.120><c> be.</c>

00:16:22.860 --> 00:16:26.799
So<00:16:23.120><c> anybody</c><00:16:23.460><c> who</c><00:16:23.659><c> is</c><00:16:23.899><c> miserable,</c><00:16:24.659><c> you</c><00:16:24.820><c> have</c><00:16:25.019><c> consciously</c><00:16:25.519><c> made</c><00:16:25.840><c> the</c><00:16:26.360><c> decision,</c>

00:16:26.980 --> 00:16:28.340
today<00:16:27.320><c> I'm</c><00:16:27.559><c> going</c><00:16:27.700><c> to</c><00:16:27.779><c> be</c><00:16:27.960><c> miserable.</c>

00:16:28.779 --> 00:16:30.720
And<00:16:28.940><c> you</c><00:16:29.419><c> can</c><00:16:29.679><c> see</c><00:16:29.799><c> this</c><00:16:29.940><c> in</c><00:16:30.059><c> your</c><00:16:30.200><c> little</c><00:16:30.460><c> kitties.</c>

00:16:34.720 --> 00:16:36.220
I<00:16:34.879><c> don't</c><00:16:34.980><c> know,</c><00:16:35.120><c> but</c><00:16:35.240><c> I'm</c><00:16:35.379><c> mad</c><00:16:35.379><c> at</c><00:16:35.559><c> something.</c>

00:16:38.399 --> 00:16:40.500
But<00:16:38.799><c> we</c><00:16:39.059><c> get</c><00:16:39.480><c> a</c><00:16:39.600><c> little</c><00:16:39.799><c> better</c><00:16:40.059><c> facade.</c>

00:16:40.820 --> 00:16:43.019
We<00:16:41.220><c> can</c><00:16:41.379><c> always</c><00:16:41.600><c> find</c><00:16:41.820><c> something</c><00:16:42.100><c> to</c><00:16:42.240><c> be</c><00:16:42.419><c> miserable</c><00:16:42.700><c> about.</c>

00:16:43.019 --> 00:16:45.980
I<00:16:43.159><c> mean,</c><00:16:44.539><c> it's</c><00:16:45.159><c> never</c><00:16:45.379><c> you,</c><00:16:45.840><c> right?</c>

00:16:46.000 --> 00:16:47.080
It's<00:16:46.139><c> always</c><00:16:46.460><c> the</c><00:16:46.580><c> other</c><00:16:46.759><c> person.</c>

00:16:47.139 --> 00:16:49.320
You<00:16:47.240><c> forgot</c><00:16:47.519><c> to</c><00:16:47.759><c> darn</c><00:16:47.919><c> my</c><00:16:48.200><c> socks,</c><00:16:48.539><c> or</c><00:16:48.620><c> you</c><00:16:48.779><c> sewed</c><00:16:48.879><c> up</c><00:16:49.059><c> the</c><00:16:49.200><c> end</c>

00:16:49.320 --> 00:16:50.240
instead<00:16:49.600><c> of</c><00:16:49.799><c> the</c><00:16:49.980><c> toe,</c>

00:16:50.279 --> 00:16:51.360
or<00:16:50.419><c> whatever.</c>

00:16:53.539 --> 00:16:56.659
But<00:16:53.879><c> always</c><00:16:54.220><c> you</c><00:16:54.399><c> have</c><00:16:54.580><c> some</c><00:16:54.840><c> reason</c><00:16:55.139><c> to</c><00:16:55.519><c> be</c><00:16:55.720><c> miserable.</c>

00:16:58.759 --> 00:17:01.139
So<00:16:59.059><c> let's</c><00:16:59.559><c> decide</c><00:16:59.940><c> to</c><00:17:00.059><c> be</c><00:17:00.279><c> happy.</c>

00:17:01.259 --> 00:17:03.080
I<00:17:01.379><c> mean,</c><00:17:01.500><c> that's</c><00:17:01.679><c> what</c><00:17:01.860><c> Paul's</c><00:17:02.220><c> really</c><00:17:02.399><c> got</c><00:17:02.539><c> to</c><00:17:02.700><c> teach</c><00:17:02.820><c> us</c><00:17:02.980><c> as</c>

00:17:06.660 --> 00:17:08.240
He's<00:17:07.099><c> chained</c><00:17:07.259><c> to</c><00:17:07.359><c> a</c><00:17:07.480><c> Roman</c><00:17:07.740><c> guard.</c>

00:17:08.579 --> 00:17:12.660
He's<00:17:08.880><c> awaiting</c><00:17:09.220><c> the</c><00:17:09.660><c> verdict</c><00:17:10.099><c> to</c><00:17:11.240><c> see</c><00:17:11.420><c> what's</c><00:17:11.740><c> going</c><00:17:11.859><c> to</c><00:17:12.019><c> happen</c><00:17:12.240><c> to</c><00:17:12.460><c> him.</c>

00:17:12.660 --> 00:17:16.539
He<00:17:12.980><c> has</c><00:17:13.180><c> appealed</c><00:17:13.539><c> to</c><00:17:13.700><c> Caesar,</c><00:17:14.380><c> and</c><00:17:14.480><c> he</c><00:17:14.539><c> doesn't</c><00:17:14.779><c> know</c><00:17:15.039><c> for</c><00:17:15.319><c> sure</c><00:17:15.819><c> what's</c><00:17:16.160><c> going</c><00:17:16.279><c> to</c><00:17:16.400><c> happen.</c>

00:17:16.640 --> 00:17:19.039
He<00:17:16.839><c> believes</c><00:17:17.220><c> he's</c><00:17:17.440><c> going</c><00:17:17.660><c> to</c><00:17:17.880><c> be</c><00:17:18.400><c> released.</c>

00:17:19.480 --> 00:17:22.779
But<00:17:19.619><c> there</c><00:17:19.779><c> is</c><00:17:20.039><c> the</c><00:17:20.200><c> possibility</c><00:17:20.900><c> that</c><00:17:21.359><c> he</c><00:17:21.420><c> will</c><00:17:21.579><c> be</c><00:17:21.759><c> executed.</c>

00:17:22.839 --> 00:17:24.759

00:17:24.759 --> 00:17:25.420
He<00:17:24.900><c> was.</c>

00:17:25.819 --> 00:17:28.619

00:17:33.740 --> 00:17:35.099
He<00:17:33.920><c> didn't</c><00:17:34.099><c> know</c><00:17:34.259><c> when</c><00:17:34.480><c> he</c><00:17:34.559><c> was</c><00:17:34.700><c> going</c><00:17:34.819><c> to</c><00:17:34.880><c> be</c><00:17:35.019><c> there.</c>

00:17:35.099 --> 00:17:40.319

00:25:50.839 --> 00:25:54.960
Yea,<00:25:51.119><c> I</c><00:25:51.339><c> therein</c><00:25:51.619><c> do</c><00:25:51.839><c> rejoice,</c><00:25:52.880><c> yea,</c><00:25:53.079><c> and</c><00:25:53.380><c> I</c><00:25:53.619><c> will</c><00:25:53.819><c> rejoice.</c>

00:25:55.619 --> 00:25:57.500
He<00:25:56.059><c> could</c><00:25:56.200><c> have</c><00:25:56.259><c> got</c><00:25:56.380><c> so</c><00:25:56.619><c> upset</c><00:25:56.859><c> at</c><00:25:57.000><c> those</c><00:25:57.240><c> people.</c>

00:25:57.559 --> 00:25:59.859
You<00:25:57.680><c> know,</c><00:25:57.920><c> there's</c><00:25:58.079><c> people</c><00:25:58.319><c> preaching</c><00:25:58.599><c> the</c><00:25:58.819><c> truth</c><00:25:58.940><c> and</c><00:25:59.039><c> they're</c><00:25:59.180><c> not</c><00:25:59.400><c> sincere.</c>

00:25:59.859 --> 00:26:01.400
And<00:26:00.200><c> they're</c><00:26:00.500><c> only</c><00:26:00.500><c> doing</c><00:26:00.619><c> it</c><00:26:00.740><c> to</c><00:26:00.779><c> get</c><00:26:00.940><c> me</c><00:26:01.099><c> in</c><00:26:01.200><c> trouble.</c>

00:26:01.619 --> 00:26:03.359
Oh<00:26:01.839><c> my,</c><00:26:02.039><c> that's</c><00:26:02.180><c> terrible.</c><00:26:02.559><c> I</c><00:26:02.680><c> can't</c><00:26:02.839><c> be</c><00:26:02.980><c> happy</c><00:26:03.140><c> with</c><00:26:03.279><c> them</c>

00:26:03.359 --> 00:26:04.500
doing<00:26:03.559><c> that.</c>

00:26:04.619 --> 00:26:06.359
I<00:26:04.779><c> decide</c><00:26:04.980><c> to</c><00:26:05.059><c> be</c><00:26:05.160><c> miserable</c><00:26:05.480><c> today.</c>

00:26:06.400 --> 00:26:09.839

00:26:10.019 --> 00:26:11.400
He<00:26:10.240><c> still</c><00:26:10.440><c> was</c><00:26:10.579><c> thinking</c><00:26:10.779><c> of</c><00:26:10.940><c> other</c><00:26:11.099><c> people.</c>

00:26:11.799 --> 00:26:14.779
That's<00:26:12.160><c> the</c><00:26:12.240><c> best</c><00:26:12.460><c> way,</c><00:26:12.700><c> of</c><00:26:12.859><c> course,</c><00:26:13.240><c> to</c><00:26:13.319><c> get</c><00:26:13.759><c> your</c><00:26:13.980><c> own</c><00:26:14.180><c> trouble</c><00:26:14.380><c> is</c><00:26:14.579><c> to</c>

00:26:17.079 --> 00:26:19.559
Forget<00:26:17.339><c> about</c><00:26:17.640><c> yourself</c><00:26:18.220><c> and</c><00:26:18.660><c> get</c><00:26:18.819><c> involved</c><00:26:19.200><c> in</c><00:26:19.339><c> other</c><00:26:19.500><c> people.</c>

00:26:19.559 --> 00:26:21.460
You<00:26:19.700><c> can</c><00:26:19.859><c> always</c><00:26:20.019><c> find</c><00:26:20.180><c> somebody</c><00:26:20.539><c> worse</c><00:26:20.839><c> than</c><00:26:21.059><c> you.</c>

00:26:21.940 --> 00:26:24.019
You're<00:26:22.339><c> complaining</c><00:26:22.680><c> because</c><00:26:22.920><c> you</c><00:26:23.059><c> don't</c><00:26:23.180><c> have</c><00:26:23.279><c> any</c><00:26:23.480><c> shoes.</c>

00:26:24.019 --> 00:26:25.900
Well,<00:26:24.720><c> look</c><00:26:24.740><c> at</c><00:26:24.880><c> the</c><00:26:24.940><c> guy</c><00:26:25.099><c> who</c><00:26:25.259><c> has</c><00:26:25.380><c> no</c><00:26:25.619><c> feet.</c>

00:26:26.279 --> 00:26:28.059
You<00:26:26.359><c> know,</c><00:26:26.440><c> that's</c><00:26:26.579><c> an</c><00:26:26.700><c> old</c><00:26:26.859><c> story,</c><00:26:27.140><c> but</c><00:26:27.259><c> it's</c><00:26:27.519><c> certainly</c><00:26:27.700><c> true.</c>

00:26:28.380 --> 00:26:31.240
But<00:26:28.500><c> you</c><00:26:28.599><c> can</c><00:26:28.759><c> be</c><00:26:28.980><c> all</c><00:26:29.279><c> the</c><00:26:29.400><c> time</c><00:26:29.539><c> worried,</c><00:26:29.700><c> look,</c><00:26:29.880><c> I</c><00:26:30.019><c> got</c><00:26:30.119><c> no</c><00:26:30.319><c> shoes.</c>

Well,<00:26:31.960><c> at</c><00:26:32.019><c> least</c><00:26:32.119><c> you</c><00:26:32.279><c> got</c><00:26:32.460><c> feet.</c>

Romans<00:26:35.559><c> 8,</c><00:26:36.500><c> we</c><00:26:36.720><c> looked</c><00:26:36.900><c> at</c><00:26:37.000><c> it</c><00:26:37.140><c> the</c><00:26:37.200><c> other</c><00:26:37.420><c> day.</c>

00:26:38.539 --> 00:26:43.000
But<00:26:38.660><c> it's</c><00:26:38.880><c> so</c><00:26:39.240><c> important</c><00:26:39.900><c> because</c><00:26:40.759><c> it's</c><00:26:41.279><c> words</c><00:26:41.680><c> we</c><00:26:42.099><c> know.</c>

00:26:43.039 --> 00:26:45.599
It's<00:26:43.319><c> not</c><00:26:43.579><c> words</c><00:26:43.880><c> we</c><00:26:44.240><c> live.</c><00:26:44.579><c> These</c><00:26:44.799><c> are</c><00:26:45.019><c> words</c><00:26:45.220><c> we</c><00:26:45.480><c> know.</c>

00:26:45.660 --> 00:26:47.619
I'm<00:26:45.880><c> not</c><00:26:46.039><c> teaching</c><00:26:46.299><c> you</c><00:26:46.559><c> anything</c><00:26:46.920><c> you</c><00:26:47.140><c> haven't</c><00:26:47.339><c> read.</c>

00:26:47.960 --> 00:26:51.000
You<00:26:48.140><c> have</c><00:26:48.299><c> read</c><00:26:48.519><c> Philippians</c><00:26:49.180><c> maybe</c><00:26:49.720><c> a</c><00:26:50.059><c> hundred</c><00:26:50.319><c> times.</c>

00:26:51.000 --> 00:26:53.079
You<00:26:51.259><c> read</c><00:26:51.460><c> it</c><00:26:51.579><c> twice</c><00:26:51.880><c> a</c><00:26:52.160><c> year.</c>

00:26:53.480 --> 00:26:56.140
And<00:26:53.660><c> then</c><00:26:53.759><c> you</c><00:26:53.819><c> may</c><00:26:54.000><c> have</c><00:26:54.119><c> read</c><00:26:54.220><c> it</c><00:26:54.420><c> other</c><00:26:54.599><c> times</c><00:26:54.839><c> besides</c><00:26:55.240><c> that.</c>

00:26:56.180 --> 00:27:00.380
But<00:26:56.500><c> we</c><00:26:57.680><c> have</c><00:26:57.920><c> to</c><00:26:58.079><c> take</c><00:26:58.359><c> these</c><00:26:58.700><c> things</c><00:26:58.900><c> and</c><00:26:59.400><c> get</c><00:26:59.660><c> them</c><00:26:59.900><c> inside</c>

of<00:27:00.619><c> us.</c>

00:27:02.960 --> 00:27:05.380
It's<00:27:03.200><c> no</c><00:27:03.440><c> good</c><00:27:03.579><c> having</c><00:27:03.799><c> your</c><00:27:04.099><c> Bible</c><00:27:04.400><c> bound</c><00:27:04.900><c> in</c><00:27:05.160><c> leather.</c>

00:27:10.259 --> 00:27:13.200
It's<00:27:10.420><c> only</c><00:27:10.660><c> good</c><00:27:11.380><c> if</c><00:27:11.519><c> it's</c><00:27:11.720><c> bound</c><00:27:11.960><c> in</c><00:27:12.420><c> human</c><00:27:12.759><c> flesh.</c>

00:27:13.400 --> 00:27:15.660
You've<00:27:13.680><c> got</c><00:27:13.700><c> to</c><00:27:13.720><c> get</c><00:27:13.819><c> it</c><00:27:14.039><c> out</c><00:27:14.140><c> of</c><00:27:14.220><c> this</c><00:27:14.480><c> leather</c><00:27:14.660><c> and</c><00:27:14.839><c> in</c><00:27:14.960><c> this</c><00:27:15.259><c> leather.</c>

remembering<00:27:56.480><c> the</c><00:27:56.759><c> story</c><00:27:56.940><c> yesterday</c><00:27:57.380><c> in</c><00:27:57.900><c> the</c><00:27:58.140><c> jail.</c>

00:27:59.579 --> 00:28:01.839
Paul<00:27:59.839><c> was</c><00:28:00.059><c> not</c><00:28:00.240><c> thinking</c><00:28:00.400><c> about</c><00:28:00.660><c> his</c><00:28:00.980><c> back.</c>

00:28:02.039 --> 00:28:05.799
He<00:28:02.160><c> was</c><00:28:02.319><c> not</c><00:28:02.519><c> thinking</c><00:28:02.680><c> about</c><00:28:03.039><c> the</c><00:28:03.319><c> stocks</c><00:28:03.599><c> holding</c><00:28:04.299><c> his</c><00:28:04.599><c> feet</c><00:28:04.759><c> secure.</c>

00:28:05.880 --> 00:28:08.319
He<00:28:06.039><c> was</c><00:28:06.599><c> praising</c><00:28:07.099><c> God.</c>

00:28:08.880 --> 00:28:14.160
And<00:28:09.000><c> it's</c><00:28:09.500><c> a</c><00:28:09.680><c> strange</c><00:28:09.880><c> thing,</c><00:28:10.140><c> but</c><00:28:10.380><c> it's</c><00:28:12.160><c> almost</c><00:28:12.720><c> like</c><00:28:13.059><c> a</c><00:28:13.279><c> miracle.</c>

00:28:14.759 --> 00:28:19.920
But<00:28:15.319><c> if</c><00:28:15.880><c> you</c><00:28:16.440><c> literally</c><00:28:17.220><c> force</c><00:28:17.819><c> yourself</c><00:28:18.500><c> to</c><00:28:18.940><c> thank</c><00:28:19.359><c> God</c>

00:28:19.920 --> 00:28:24.640
for<00:28:20.259><c> the</c><00:28:20.500><c> very</c><00:28:20.779><c> thing</c><00:28:21.180><c> that's</c><00:28:21.480><c> happened</c><00:28:21.940><c> that</c><00:28:22.400><c> you</c><00:28:22.799><c> think</c><00:28:22.980><c> is</c><00:28:23.279><c> bad,</c>

00:28:26.420 --> 00:28:29.039
it<00:28:26.980><c> releases</c><00:28:27.539><c> it,</c>

00:28:29.480 --> 00:28:32.099
and<00:28:29.599><c> a</c><00:28:29.839><c> peace</c><00:28:30.039><c> and</c><00:28:30.240><c> a</c><00:28:30.420><c> calm</c><00:28:30.599><c> comes</c><00:28:30.880><c> over</c><00:28:31.160><c> you</c><00:28:31.319><c> that</c><00:28:31.460><c> you</c><00:28:31.819><c> never</c>

00:28:32.099 --> 00:28:32.740
had<00:28:32.279><c> before.</c>

00:28:33.160 --> 00:28:36.740
You<00:28:33.319><c> can</c><00:28:33.579><c> cope</c><00:28:33.799><c> with</c><00:28:34.039><c> it,</c><00:28:34.819><c> and</c><00:28:35.039><c> God</c><00:28:35.319><c> blesses</c><00:28:35.799><c> you.</c>

00:28:36.920 --> 00:28:38.960
I<00:28:37.259><c> have</c><00:28:37.460><c> a</c><00:28:37.619><c> talk</c><00:28:37.720><c> which</c><00:28:37.900><c> is</c><00:28:38.099><c> not</c><00:28:38.259><c> this</c><00:28:38.519><c> one,</c>

00:28:39.220 --> 00:28:41.099
but<00:28:39.400><c> it's</c><00:28:39.599><c> a</c><00:28:39.740><c> talk</c><00:28:39.880><c> that</c><00:28:40.059><c> I</c><00:28:40.180><c> gave</c><00:28:40.339><c> in</c><00:28:40.480><c> Australia.</c>

00:28:41.099 --> 00:28:43.099
And<00:28:41.099><c> I</c><00:28:41.740><c> remember</c><00:28:42.019><c> after</c><00:28:42.299><c> one</c><00:28:42.500><c> of</c><00:28:42.619><c> these</c><00:28:42.779><c> talks,</c>

00:28:43.259 --> 00:28:45.240
I'd<00:28:43.339><c> given</c><00:28:43.420><c> it</c><00:28:43.599><c> the</c><00:28:43.680><c> night</c><00:28:43.779><c> before,</c>

00:28:45.559 --> 00:28:46.839
and<00:28:45.680><c> this</c><00:28:45.779><c> young</c><00:28:46.039><c> girl</c><00:28:46.240><c> came</c><00:28:46.400><c> up</c><00:28:46.539><c> to</c><00:28:46.660><c> me,</c>

00:28:47.019 --> 00:28:49.819
and<00:28:47.019><c> she</c><00:28:47.680><c> came</c><00:28:47.900><c> up</c><00:28:48.119><c> and</c><00:28:48.180><c> says,</c><00:28:48.380><c> oh,</c><00:28:48.680><c> Brother</c><00:28:48.900><c> Bob,</c><00:28:49.319><c> Uncle</c><00:28:49.559><c> Bob,</c>

00:28:49.839 --> 00:28:50.420
I<00:28:49.940><c> think</c><00:28:50.019><c> she</c><00:28:50.200><c> called</c><00:28:50.279><c> me,</c>

00:28:50.420 --> 00:28:52.019
and<00:28:50.539><c> she</c><00:28:50.619><c> put</c><00:28:50.779><c> her</c><00:28:50.900><c> hand</c><00:28:51.039><c> on</c><00:28:51.759><c> my</c><00:28:51.920><c> shoulder,</c>

00:28:52.019 --> 00:28:54.539
and<00:28:52.119><c> she</c><00:28:52.240><c> starts</c><00:28:52.440><c> to</c><00:28:52.720><c> cry,</c><00:28:53.559><c> and</c><00:28:53.680><c> she's</c><00:28:54.079><c> sobbing</c><00:28:54.380><c> away.</c>

00:28:54.539 --> 00:28:56.599
She<00:28:54.720><c> says,</c><00:28:55.180><c> I</c><00:28:55.380><c> just</c><00:28:55.619><c> got</c><00:28:56.059><c> sacked</c><00:28:56.319><c> today.</c>

00:28:56.640 --> 00:28:58.619
That's<00:28:56.980><c> their</c><00:28:57.119><c> word</c><00:28:57.220><c> for</c><00:28:57.359><c> being</c><00:28:57.640><c> fired.</c>

00:28:58.680 --> 00:29:00.819
And<00:28:58.880><c> she</c><00:28:59.000><c> says,</c><00:28:59.180><c> and</c><00:28:59.299><c> I'm</c><00:28:59.420><c> thanking</c><00:28:59.819><c> God.</c>

00:29:03.900 --> 00:29:06.240
It<00:29:04.259><c> was</c><00:29:04.460><c> a</c><00:29:04.599><c> hard</c><00:29:04.759><c> thing</c><00:29:04.940><c> for</c><00:29:05.079><c> her</c><00:29:05.240><c> to</c><00:29:05.400><c> do.</c>

00:29:06.819 --> 00:29:08.680
She<00:29:07.059><c> had</c><00:29:07.140><c> heard</c><00:29:07.240><c> the</c><00:29:07.420><c> talk</c><00:29:07.579><c> the</c><00:29:07.700><c> night</c><00:29:07.819><c> before</c><00:29:08.119><c> and</c><00:29:08.200><c> got</c><00:29:08.420><c> fired</c>

00:29:08.680 --> 00:29:09.960
the<00:29:08.819><c> next</c><00:29:09.099><c> day.</c>

00:29:09.980 --> 00:29:11.720
I<00:29:10.380><c> saw</c><00:29:10.480><c> her</c><00:29:10.640><c> this</c><00:29:10.900><c> year,</c><00:29:11.119><c> and</c><00:29:11.220><c> I</c><00:29:11.359><c> asked</c><00:29:11.599><c> her,</c>

00:29:11.839 --> 00:29:13.700
and<00:29:11.839><c> she</c><00:29:11.900><c> said,</c><00:29:12.200><c> everything's</c><00:29:12.359><c> worked</c><00:29:12.519><c> out</c><00:29:12.700><c> wonderful.</c>

00:29:14.079 --> 00:29:14.759
But<00:29:14.160><c> that's</c><00:29:14.480><c> what</c><00:29:14.619><c> happened.</c>

00:29:14.940 --> 00:29:18.119
You<00:29:15.079><c> see,</c><00:29:15.940><c> when</c><00:29:16.099><c> you</c><00:29:16.359><c> thank</c><00:29:16.640><c> God</c><00:29:16.920><c> for</c><00:29:17.079><c> your</c><00:29:17.279><c> troubles,</c>

00:29:18.279 --> 00:29:20.319
as<00:29:18.539><c> Paul</c><00:29:18.839><c> is</c><00:29:19.279><c> going</c><00:29:19.440><c> to</c><00:29:19.680><c> teach</c><00:29:19.859><c> us,</c>

00:29:20.619 --> 00:29:22.759
it<00:29:20.799><c> releases</c><00:29:21.319><c> it,</c><00:29:21.559><c> you</c><00:29:21.759><c> turn</c><00:29:21.980><c> it</c><00:29:22.119><c> over</c><00:29:22.279><c> to</c><00:29:22.460><c> God.</c>

00:29:23.039 --> 00:29:25.559
It<00:29:23.299><c> couldn't</c><00:29:23.480><c> have</c><00:29:23.720><c> happened</c><00:29:23.980><c> if</c><00:29:24.180><c> he</c><00:29:24.299><c> didn't</c><00:29:24.519><c> allow</c><00:29:24.779><c> it.</c>

00:29:25.859 --> 00:29:27.440
I<00:29:26.259><c> don't</c><00:29:26.440><c> mean</c><00:29:26.539><c> by</c><00:29:26.680><c> that</c><00:29:26.779><c> he</c><00:29:26.880><c> caused</c><00:29:27.319><c> it.</c>

00:29:27.440 --> 00:29:29.680
We<00:29:27.599><c> sometimes</c><00:29:28.019><c> cause</c><00:29:28.299><c> our</c><00:29:28.500><c> own</c><00:29:28.720><c> troubles,</c>

00:29:29.819 --> 00:29:31.380
but<00:29:30.220><c> he</c><00:29:30.619><c> certainly</c><00:29:30.920><c> allowed</c><00:29:31.240><c> it,</c>

00:29:31.380 --> 00:29:32.880
or<00:29:31.559><c> he</c><00:29:31.700><c> could</c><00:29:31.859><c> have</c><00:29:31.960><c> prevented</c><00:29:32.240><c> it</c><00:29:32.420><c> from</c><00:29:32.559><c> happening.</c>

00:29:33.240 --> 00:29:34.279
And<00:29:33.380><c> if</c><00:29:33.460><c> you've</c><00:29:33.680><c> got</c><00:29:33.779><c> a</c><00:29:33.940><c> trouble,</c>

00:29:34.579 --> 00:29:36.900
one<00:29:34.759><c> thing</c><00:29:34.960><c> is</c><00:29:35.200><c> you</c><00:29:35.380><c> can</c><00:29:35.680><c> be</c><00:29:35.980><c> thankful</c><00:29:36.160><c> you're</c><00:29:36.440><c> alive,</c>

00:29:36.900 --> 00:29:39.400
because<00:29:37.380><c> dead</c><00:29:37.660><c> people</c><00:29:37.940><c> don't</c><00:29:38.180><c> have</c><00:29:38.519><c> any.</c>

00:29:40.140 --> 00:29:41.779
So<00:29:40.500><c> the</c><00:29:40.759><c> fear</c><00:29:40.900><c> of</c><00:29:41.059><c> fact</c><00:29:41.140><c> you've</c><00:29:41.359><c> got</c><00:29:41.519><c> troubles</c>

00:29:41.779 --> 00:29:43.759
at<00:29:41.920><c> least</c><00:29:42.119><c> proves</c><00:29:42.380><c> you're</c><00:29:42.640><c> alive.</c>

00:29:48.380 --> 00:29:50.660
Now<00:29:48.819><c> you</c><00:29:49.259><c> thank</c><00:29:49.559><c> God</c><00:29:49.779><c> for</c><00:29:49.940><c> those</c><00:29:50.180><c> troubles,</c>

00:29:50.940 --> 00:29:52.319
and<00:29:51.019><c> then</c><00:29:51.119><c> you</c><00:29:51.220><c> ask</c><00:29:51.440><c> God</c><00:29:51.660><c> to</c><00:29:51.839><c> help</c><00:29:51.940><c> you,</c>

00:29:52.440 --> 00:29:53.480
and<00:29:52.559><c> he</c><00:29:52.660><c> always</c><00:29:53.119><c> will.</c>

00:29:53.960 --> 00:29:56.019
When<00:29:54.119><c> you</c><00:29:54.319><c> release</c><00:29:54.660><c> it</c><00:29:54.759><c> to</c><00:29:54.900><c> him,</c><00:29:55.339><c> he</c><00:29:55.599><c> will.</c>

00:29:56.319 --> 00:29:58.380
Now<00:29:56.759><c> Paul</c><00:29:57.039><c> is</c><00:29:57.299><c> listening</c><00:29:57.640><c> to</c><00:29:57.859><c> Jesus.</c>

00:29:58.700 --> 00:30:01.400
You<00:29:58.799><c> see,</c><00:29:59.240><c> Jesus</c><00:29:59.579><c> is</c><00:29:59.779><c> the</c><00:29:59.900><c> one</c><00:30:00.000><c> who</c><00:30:00.180><c> taught</c><00:30:00.359><c> Paul</c><00:30:00.599><c> how</c><00:30:00.759><c> to</c><00:30:00.920><c> do</c><00:30:01.079><c> this.</c>

00:30:01.680 --> 00:30:03.359
And<00:30:01.720><c> so</c><00:30:01.839><c> if</c><00:30:01.960><c> we</c><00:30:01.980><c> go</c><00:30:02.079><c> to</c><00:30:02.119><c> Luke</c><00:30:02.299><c> chapter</c><00:30:02.700><c> 6,</c>

00:30:03.539 --> 00:30:06.440

For<00:34:33.440><c> my</c><00:34:33.719><c> strength</c><00:34:33.980><c> is</c><00:34:34.199><c> made</c><00:34:34.460><c> perfect</c><00:34:34.800><c> in</c><00:34:35.059><c> weakness.</c>

00:34:36.599 --> 00:34:38.059
Now,<00:34:36.739><c> that's</c><00:34:36.920><c> what</c><00:34:37.059><c> God</c><00:34:37.360><c> said.</c>

00:34:38.480 --> 00:34:40.300
And<00:34:38.880><c> that's</c><00:34:39.079><c> what</c><00:34:39.219><c> God</c><00:34:39.519><c> says</c><00:34:39.659><c> to</c><00:34:39.860><c> you</c><00:34:39.960><c> and</c><00:34:40.079><c> me.</c>

00:34:40.719 --> 00:34:42.539
His<00:34:41.039><c> strength</c><00:34:41.340><c> is</c><00:34:41.619><c> made</c><00:34:41.860><c> perfect</c><00:34:42.159><c> in</c><00:34:42.380><c> weakness.</c>

00:34:42.659 --> 00:34:44.820
Look<00:34:42.860><c> at</c><00:34:43.000><c> the</c><00:34:43.219><c> people</c><00:34:43.420><c> He</c><00:34:43.679><c> called.</c><00:34:43.980><c> Look</c><00:34:44.260><c> at</c><00:34:44.440><c> us.</c>

00:34:44.980 --> 00:34:47.199
Look<00:34:45.139><c> how</c><00:34:45.380><c> weak</c><00:34:45.599><c> we</c><00:34:45.840><c> are.</c><00:34:46.079><c> Look</c><00:34:46.260><c> how</c><00:34:46.599><c> frail</c><00:34:46.860><c> we</c><00:34:47.059><c> are.</c>

00:34:47.300 --> 00:34:49.820
Look<00:34:47.480><c> how</c><00:34:48.000><c> inept</c><00:34:48.219><c> we</c><00:34:48.420><c> are</c><00:34:48.579><c> compared</c><00:34:48.880><c> to</c><00:34:49.039><c> the</c><00:34:49.199><c> people</c><00:34:49.340><c> of</c><00:34:49.480><c> the</c><00:34:49.639><c> world.</c>

00:34:49.820 --> 00:34:52.219
And<00:34:50.079><c> God</c><00:34:50.420><c> picked</c><00:34:50.760><c> us.</c>

00:34:53.320 --> 00:34:57.420
Jesus<00:34:53.800><c> preached</c><00:34:54.280><c> to</c><00:34:54.480><c> the</c><00:34:54.619><c> people</c><00:34:55.300><c> all</c><00:34:55.900><c> the</c><00:34:56.000><c> time</c><00:34:56.159><c> He</c><00:34:56.219><c> was</c><00:34:56.400><c> immortal.</c>

00:34:58.159 --> 00:35:00.199
When<00:34:58.239><c> He</c><00:34:58.360><c> was</c><00:34:58.559><c> amortal,</c><00:34:59.079><c> not</c><00:34:59.219><c> immortal.</c>

00:35:00.679 --> 00:35:03.619
As<00:35:00.760><c> soon</c><00:35:00.920><c> as</c><00:35:01.059><c> He</c><00:35:01.119><c> was</c><00:35:01.320><c> immortal,</c><00:35:02.480><c> all</c><00:35:02.679><c> those</c><00:35:02.940><c> people</c><00:35:03.219><c> never</c>

00:35:05.599 --> 00:35:07.380
Only<00:35:06.019><c> His</c><00:35:06.360><c> little</c><00:35:06.539><c> group.</c>

00:35:07.619 --> 00:35:11.219
Now,<00:35:08.519><c> when</c><00:35:08.719><c> He</c><00:35:08.840><c> was</c><00:35:09.079><c> really</c><00:35:09.440><c> strong,</c><00:35:10.360><c> He</c><00:35:10.519><c> didn't</c><00:35:10.739><c> preach</c><00:35:11.019><c> to</c><00:35:11.139><c> them.</c>

00:35:11.320 --> 00:35:12.860
When<00:35:11.480><c> He</c><00:35:11.559><c> was</c><00:35:11.800><c> weak,</c><00:35:12.400><c> He</c><00:35:12.579><c> did.</c>

00:35:12.960 --> 00:35:16.719
Now,<00:35:13.239><c> had</c><00:35:13.460><c> I</c><00:35:13.579><c> been</c><00:35:14.380><c> running</c><00:35:14.880><c> the</c><00:35:15.699><c> show,</c><00:35:16.039><c> so</c><00:35:16.280><c> to</c><00:35:16.440><c> speak,</c>

00:35:17.059 --> 00:35:18.820
because<00:35:17.260><c> I</c><00:35:17.460><c> think</c><00:35:17.579><c> so</c><00:35:17.860><c> differently</c><00:35:18.099><c> than</c><00:35:18.260><c> God</c><00:35:18.579><c> does,</c>

00:35:18.820 --> 00:35:20.320
and<00:35:18.880><c> that</c><00:35:18.960><c> means</c><00:35:19.159><c> I'm</c><00:35:19.360><c> wrong</c><00:35:19.619><c> and</c><00:35:19.699><c> He's</c><00:35:19.980><c> not,</c>

00:35:20.579 --> 00:35:22.780
but<00:35:20.719><c> had</c><00:35:20.920><c> I</c><00:35:21.219><c> been</c><00:35:21.659><c> handling</c><00:35:22.000><c> that</c><00:35:22.219><c> situation,</c>

00:35:23.119 --> 00:35:24.460
after<00:35:23.420><c> Jesus</c><00:35:23.719><c> was</c><00:35:24.039><c> erased,</c>

00:35:24.659 --> 00:35:26.179
I'd<00:35:24.860><c> have</c><00:35:24.880><c> had</c><00:35:24.940><c> Him</c><00:35:25.079><c> walk</c><00:35:25.280><c> into</c><00:35:25.480><c> Pilate's</c><00:35:25.940><c> office,</c>

00:35:26.440 --> 00:35:27.280
barge<00:35:26.619><c> right</c><00:35:26.780><c> through</c><00:35:26.940><c> the</c><00:35:27.119><c> secondary,</c>

00:35:27.460 --> 00:35:30.380
say,<00:35:27.739><c> Pilate,</c><00:35:28.139><c> you</c><00:35:28.239><c> washed</c><00:35:28.420><c> your</c><00:35:28.619><c> hands</c><00:35:28.719><c> of</c><00:35:28.840><c> me.</c><00:35:28.960><c> Look</c><00:35:29.099><c> at</c><00:35:29.219><c> me</c><00:35:29.360><c> now.</c>

00:35:30.760 --> 00:35:32.440
Pilate<00:35:31.119><c> never</c><00:35:31.380><c> saw</c><00:35:31.619><c> Him.</c>

00:35:32.679 --> 00:35:34.760
I<00:35:32.860><c> had</c><00:35:32.940><c> to</c><00:35:33.079><c> go</c><00:35:33.300><c> to</c><00:35:33.300><c> the</c><00:35:33.340><c> K</c><00:35:33.360><c>-office</c><00:35:33.519><c> of</c><00:35:33.679><c> a</c><00:35:33.880><c> high</c><00:35:33.880><c> priest.</c>

00:35:35.400 --> 00:35:37.500
You<00:35:35.820><c> high</c><00:35:36.119><c> priest,</c><00:35:36.380><c> look</c><00:35:36.500><c> what</c><00:35:36.659><c> you</c><00:35:36.860><c> did</c><00:35:36.980><c> to</c><00:35:37.199><c> me.</c>

00:35:37.820 --> 00:35:39.599
You<00:35:38.099><c> put</c><00:35:38.280><c> your</c><00:35:38.599><c> fingers</c><00:35:38.940><c> in</c><00:35:39.099><c> my</c><00:35:39.360><c> hands.</c>

00:35:39.900 --> 00:35:41.639
He<00:35:40.019><c> didn't</c><00:35:40.179><c> tell</c><00:35:40.400><c> the</c><00:35:40.619><c> K</c><00:35:40.840><c>-office</c><00:35:41.059><c> to</c><00:35:41.159><c> do</c><00:35:41.260><c> that.</c>

00:35:42.019 --> 00:35:44.320
That<00:35:42.159><c> was</c><00:35:42.579><c> Thomas,</c><00:35:43.039><c> one</c><00:35:43.219><c> of</c><00:35:43.320><c> his</c><00:35:43.519><c> own.</c>

00:35:44.559 --> 00:35:47.599
You<00:35:44.679><c> see,</c><00:35:45.039><c> God</c><00:35:45.340><c> works</c><00:35:45.679><c> through</c><00:35:45.940><c> weak</c><00:35:46.199><c> people,</c><00:35:46.599><c> and</c><00:35:46.820><c> that's</c><00:35:47.039><c> us.</c>

00:35:47.599 --> 00:35:50.440
And<00:35:48.099><c> His</c><00:35:48.460><c> strength</c><00:35:49.000><c> is</c><00:35:49.239><c> made</c><00:35:49.539><c> perfect</c><00:35:49.900><c> in</c><00:35:50.159><c> weakness.</c>

00:35:50.699 --> 00:35:52.900
So<00:35:50.800><c> don't</c><00:35:51.099><c> think</c><00:35:51.300><c> that</c><00:35:51.460><c> you</c><00:35:51.619><c> can't</c><00:35:51.900><c> do</c><00:35:52.059><c> it</c><00:35:52.179><c> because</c><00:35:52.460><c> you're</c><00:35:52.719><c> weak,</c>

00:35:52.960 --> 00:35:55.260
because<00:35:53.260><c> you</c><00:35:53.539><c> doing</c><00:35:53.719><c> your</c><00:35:54.000><c> best</c><00:35:54.159><c> is</c><00:35:54.300><c> better</c><00:35:54.519><c> than</c><00:35:54.619><c> being</c><00:35:54.900><c> the</c><00:35:55.079><c> best.</c>

00:35:55.260 --> 00:35:56.619
Don't<00:35:55.460><c> forget</c><00:35:55.719><c> it.</c>

00:35:56.760 --> 00:35:58.960
My<00:35:56.900><c> strength</c><00:35:57.119><c> is</c><00:35:57.280><c> made</c><00:35:57.460><c> perfect</c><00:35:57.699><c> in</c><00:35:57.940><c> weakness.</c>

00:35:59.840 --> 00:36:04.039
And<00:35:59.920><c> because</c><00:36:00.320><c> of</c><00:36:00.519><c> that,</c><00:36:02.960><c> Paul</c><00:36:03.079><c> says,</c>

00:36:04.119 --> 00:36:09.260
oh,<00:36:05.099><c> most</c><00:36:05.460><c> gladly</c><00:36:06.219><c> therefore</c><00:36:06.760><c> will</c><00:36:07.039><c> I</c><00:36:07.599><c> glory</c><00:36:08.159><c> in</c><00:36:08.420><c> my</c><00:36:08.639><c> infirmities</c>

00:36:09.260 --> 00:36:11.460
that<00:36:10.019><c> the</c><00:36:10.199><c> power</c><00:36:10.360><c> of</c><00:36:10.539><c> Christ</c><00:36:10.719><c> may</c><00:36:10.920><c> rest</c><00:36:11.099><c> upon</c><00:36:11.260><c> me.</c>

00:36:11.460 --> 00:36:14.079
I<00:36:11.760><c> take</c><00:36:12.039><c> pleasure</c><00:36:12.739><c> in</c><00:36:13.480><c> infirmities.</c>

00:36:14.199 --> 00:36:15.699
I<00:36:14.440><c> take</c><00:36:14.699><c> pleasure</c><00:36:15.119><c> in</c><00:36:15.320><c> reproaches.</c>

00:36:15.699 --> 00:36:17.119
I<00:36:15.980><c> take</c><00:36:16.199><c> pleasure</c><00:36:16.559><c> in</c><00:36:16.760><c> necessities.</c>

00:36:17.239 --> 00:36:18.619
I<00:36:17.360><c> take</c><00:36:17.619><c> pleasure</c><00:36:17.940><c> in</c><00:36:18.179><c> persecutions.</c>

00:36:18.760 --> 00:36:20.239
I<00:36:18.880><c> take</c><00:36:19.099><c> pleasure</c><00:36:19.480><c> in</c><00:36:19.699><c> distresses.</c>

00:36:20.260 --> 00:36:21.099
Why?

00:36:21.500 --> 00:36:23.059
For<00:36:21.699><c> Christ's</c><00:36:22.099><c> sake.</c>

00:36:23.260 --> 00:36:26.739
For<00:36:23.420><c> when</c><00:36:23.559><c> I</c><00:36:23.719><c> am</c><00:36:23.980><c> weak,</c><00:36:25.940><c> then</c><00:36:26.139><c> am</c><00:36:26.280><c> I</c><00:36:26.460><c> strong.</c>

00:36:26.920 --> 00:36:27.960
It's<00:36:27.059><c> just</c><00:36:27.219><c> that</c><00:36:27.519><c> paradox.</c>

00:36:28.079 --> 00:36:29.420
It's<00:36:28.199><c> just</c><00:36:28.380><c> the</c><00:36:28.519><c> opposite</c><00:36:28.800><c> of</c><00:36:28.980><c> the</c><00:36:28.980><c> way</c><00:36:29.099><c> we</c><00:36:29.320><c> do.</c>

00:36:29.460 --> 00:36:32.340
We<00:36:29.619><c> think</c><00:36:30.119><c> weakness</c><00:36:30.699><c> brings</c><00:36:31.559><c> weakness,</c><00:36:32.059><c> and</c><00:36:32.199><c> strength</c>

00:36:32.340 --> 00:36:32.980
brings<00:36:32.599><c> strength.</c>

00:36:33.440 --> 00:36:35.619
And<00:36:33.579><c> God</c><00:36:33.739><c> says,</c><00:36:34.059><c> I'm</c><00:36:34.219><c> working</c><00:36:34.500><c> through</c><00:36:34.739><c> you</c><00:36:34.960><c> weak</c><00:36:35.199><c> people.</c>

00:36:35.900 --> 00:36:37.000

And<00:38:52.840><c> that's</c><00:38:53.079><c> not</c><00:38:53.260><c> what</c><00:38:53.340><c> he</c><00:38:53.519><c> promises.</c>

00:38:54.199 --> 00:38:57.400
He's<00:38:54.539><c> saying</c><00:38:54.760><c> that</c><00:38:55.059><c> we</c><00:38:55.199><c> have</c><00:38:55.320><c> to</c><00:38:55.440><c> be</c><00:38:55.659><c> happy</c><00:38:56.460><c> with</c><00:38:56.880><c> opposition.</c>

00:38:57.579 --> 00:38:59.119
We<00:38:57.679><c> have</c><00:38:57.840><c> to</c><00:38:57.920><c> be</c><00:38:58.139><c> happy</c><00:38:58.400><c> with</c><00:38:58.780><c> trials.</c>

00:38:59.280 --> 00:39:00.760
We<00:38:59.420><c> have</c><00:38:59.559><c> to</c><00:38:59.679><c> be</c><00:38:59.860><c> happy</c><00:39:00.059><c> in</c><00:39:00.360><c> adversity.</c>

00:39:00.960 --> 00:39:03.059
If<00:39:01.119><c> you</c><00:39:01.260><c> have</c><00:39:01.420><c> a</c><00:39:01.579><c> wooden</c><00:39:01.739><c> leg,</c><00:39:02.179><c> you've</c><00:39:02.360><c> got</c><00:39:02.460><c> a</c><00:39:02.639><c> choice.</c>

You<00:39:03.659><c> have</c><00:39:03.800><c> a</c><00:39:03.960><c> wooden</c><00:39:04.139><c> leg.</c>

00:39:04.400 --> 00:39:05.099
That's<00:39:04.719><c> a</c><00:39:04.840><c> fact.</c>

00:39:05.099 --> 00:39:07.039
Now,<00:39:05.659><c> you</c><00:39:05.719><c> can</c><00:39:05.880><c> be</c><00:39:06.039><c> miserable.</c>

00:39:07.699 --> 00:39:09.039
Or<00:39:07.860><c> you</c><00:39:07.920><c> can</c><00:39:08.039><c> be</c><00:39:08.219><c> happy.</c>

But<00:39:09.440><c> either</c><00:39:09.619><c> way,</c><00:39:09.699><c> you've</c><00:39:09.900><c> got</c><00:39:09.900><c> a</c><00:39:10.000><c> wooden</c><00:39:10.139><c> leg.</c>

00:39:11.820 --> 00:39:13.659
So<00:39:12.139><c> learn</c><00:39:12.460><c> to</c><00:39:12.519><c> be</c><00:39:12.679><c> happy</c><00:39:12.900><c> and</c><00:39:13.000><c> walk</c><00:39:13.260><c> on</c><00:39:13.440><c> it.</c>

00:39:13.940 --> 00:39:16.739
It<00:39:14.099><c> won't</c><00:39:14.380><c> make</c><00:39:14.659><c> anything</c><00:39:14.980><c> better</c><00:39:15.480><c> because</c><00:39:15.920><c> you</c><00:39:16.300><c> sit</c><00:39:16.480><c> down</c>

00:39:35.719 --> 00:39:38.019
And<00:39:36.199><c> God</c><00:39:36.539><c> is</c><00:39:36.699><c> saying,</c><00:39:37.179><c> look,</c><00:39:37.199><c> whom</c><00:39:37.360><c> the</c><00:39:37.519><c> Lord</c><00:39:37.699><c> loveth,</c>

I'll<00:41:04.760><c> enjoy</c><00:41:04.940><c> it</c><00:41:05.059><c> too</c><00:41:05.340><c> much.</c>

00:41:05.719 --> 00:41:08.739
I<00:41:05.719><c> think</c><00:41:05.920><c> some</c><00:41:06.159><c> people</c><00:41:06.460><c> really</c><00:41:07.019><c> almost...</c>

00:41:09.119 --> 00:41:11.199
It's<00:41:09.519><c> very</c><00:41:09.739><c> hard</c><00:41:09.820><c> to</c><00:41:10.059><c> change</c><00:41:10.280><c> habits.</c>

00:41:11.559 --> 00:41:13.360

00:41:13.519 --> 00:41:14.679
There's<00:41:13.659><c> something</c><00:41:13.880><c> you</c><00:41:14.019><c> can</c><00:41:14.320><c> do.</c>

00:41:14.880 --> 00:41:16.619
And<00:41:15.000><c> the</c><00:41:15.019><c> thing</c><00:41:15.179><c> you</c><00:41:15.320><c> do</c><00:41:15.480><c> is</c><00:41:15.639><c> you</c><00:41:15.760><c> learn</c><00:41:15.960><c> Bible</c><00:41:16.300><c> verses,</c>

00:41:19.360 --> 00:41:21.460
and<00:41:19.480><c> they</c><00:41:19.760><c> finally</c><00:41:20.619><c> filter</c><00:41:20.980><c> down.</c>

00:41:21.820 --> 00:41:24.280
Some<00:41:22.079><c> of</c><00:41:22.179><c> it</c><00:41:22.619><c> kind</c><00:41:22.920><c> of</c><00:41:23.139><c> hangs</c><00:41:23.300><c> in</c><00:41:23.460><c> there</c><00:41:23.559><c> as</c><00:41:23.599><c> it</c><00:41:23.659><c> goes</c><00:41:23.900><c> by.</c>

00:41:24.280 --> 00:41:26.320

00:41:29.659 --> 00:41:32.039
It<00:41:29.659><c> goes</c><00:41:29.860><c> bloop,</c><00:41:30.639><c> and</c><00:41:30.860><c> you</c><00:41:30.980><c> say,</c><00:41:31.059><c> here's</c><00:41:31.219><c> a</c><00:41:31.320><c> cup</c><00:41:31.460><c> of</c><00:41:31.659><c> coffee.</c>

00:41:34.280 --> 00:41:36.860

00:41:38.039 --> 00:41:40.280

Steep,<00:41:45.639><c> isn't</c><00:41:45.780><c> it?</c>

00:41:46.820 --> 00:41:47.780
You've<00:41:47.079><c> got</c><00:41:47.079><c> to</c><00:41:47.199><c> make</c><00:41:47.300><c> it</c><00:41:47.440><c> just</c><00:41:47.659><c> right.</c>

00:41:48.159 --> 00:41:50.400
You<00:41:48.559><c> don't</c><00:41:49.619><c> pour</c><00:41:49.820><c> the</c><00:41:50.000><c> water</c><00:41:50.239><c> in,</c>

00:41:54.099 --> 00:41:55.519

00:41:57.659 --> 00:42:00.019
And<00:41:57.820><c> so,</c><00:41:58.119><c> if</c><00:41:58.219><c> you</c><00:41:58.360><c> wake</c><00:41:58.539><c> up</c><00:41:58.820><c> feeling</c><00:41:59.099><c> miserable,</c>

start<00:42:00.500><c> doing</c><00:42:00.860><c> something.</c>

00:42:01.920 --> 00:42:03.119
Feed<00:42:02.219><c> the</c><00:42:02.460><c> verses</c><00:42:02.679><c> through</c><00:42:03.000><c> it.</c>

00:42:03.119 --> 00:42:05.179
Not<00:42:03.280><c> just</c><00:42:03.579><c> once,</c><00:42:03.920><c> you</c><00:42:04.079><c> need</c><00:42:04.179><c> a</c><00:42:04.239><c> lot</c><00:42:04.440><c> of</c><00:42:04.619><c> bloops</c>

00:42:05.179 --> 00:42:07.860
before<00:42:05.719><c> you</c><00:42:05.900><c> get</c><00:42:06.380><c> this</c><00:42:06.860><c> change.</c>

00:42:09.440 --> 00:42:11.039
Think<00:42:09.719><c> about</c><00:42:09.960><c> poor</c><00:42:10.199><c> Jonah.</c>

00:42:12.500 --> 00:42:15.440
Jonah,<00:42:13.280><c> of</c><00:42:13.380><c> course</c><00:42:13.500><c> you</c><00:42:13.659><c> all</c><00:42:13.820><c> know</c><00:42:13.980><c> the</c><00:42:14.159><c> story</c><00:42:14.420><c> well.</c>

00:42:15.539 --> 00:42:17.139
He's<00:42:15.760><c> been</c><00:42:16.119><c> miraculously</c><00:42:16.699><c> rescued</c>

00:42:17.139 --> 00:42:18.980
from<00:42:17.440><c> the</c><00:42:17.760><c> belly</c><00:42:17.980><c> of</c><00:42:18.139><c> the</c><00:42:18.280><c> whale.</c>

00:42:19.820 --> 00:42:21.619
He<00:42:20.219><c> really</c><00:42:20.619><c> didn't</c><00:42:20.820><c> care</c><00:42:21.019><c> about</c><00:42:21.219><c> people</c>

00:42:21.619 --> 00:42:24.099
because<00:42:21.940><c> he</c><00:42:22.059><c> was</c><00:42:22.300><c> sad</c><00:42:22.539><c> because</c><00:42:22.900><c> the</c><00:42:23.059><c> people</c><00:42:23.260><c> of</c><00:42:23.400><c> Nineveh</c>

00:42:24.940 --> 00:42:26.420
repented,<00:42:25.599><c> and</c><00:42:25.760><c> God</c><00:42:25.920><c> didn't</c><00:42:26.119><c> kill</c><00:42:26.320><c> him</c>

00:42:26.420 --> 00:42:27.179
like<00:42:26.500><c> he</c><00:42:26.619><c> wanted</c><00:42:26.800><c> him</c><00:42:26.980><c> to.</c>

00:42:27.400 --> 00:42:28.599
Oh<00:42:27.599><c> God,</c><00:42:27.900><c> kill</c><00:42:28.239><c> them</c><00:42:28.539><c> all!</c>

00:42:29.079 --> 00:42:31.960
And<00:42:29.219><c> then</c><00:42:30.500><c> he</c><00:42:30.679><c> goes</c><00:42:30.880><c> out</c><00:42:31.119><c> to</c><00:42:31.280><c> watch</c><00:42:31.440><c> and</c><00:42:31.639><c> see</c><00:42:31.679><c> what's</c><00:42:31.900><c> happening.</c>

00:42:31.960 --> 00:42:33.980
He<00:42:32.099><c> says,</c><00:42:32.239><c> I</c><00:42:32.340><c> knew</c><00:42:32.519><c> God</c><00:42:32.699><c> wasn't</c><00:42:32.900><c> going</c><00:42:33.019><c> to</c><00:42:33.099><c> do</c><00:42:33.260><c> it.</c>

00:42:35.320 --> 00:42:38.300
So<00:42:35.599><c> God</c><00:42:35.860><c> makes</c><00:42:36.000><c> this</c><00:42:36.239><c> nice</c><00:42:36.800><c> bushed</c><00:42:38.139><c> plant</c>

00:42:39.639 --> 00:42:41.139
And<00:42:39.820><c> then</c><00:42:39.980><c> God</c><00:42:40.139><c> prepares</c><00:42:40.480><c> a</c><00:42:40.639><c> little</c><00:42:40.840><c> worm,</c>

00:42:41.199 --> 00:42:42.800
and<00:42:41.320><c> the</c><00:42:41.440><c> worm</c><00:42:41.579><c> kills</c><00:42:41.840><c> the</c><00:42:42.099><c> plant.</c>

00:42:43.099 --> 00:42:45.440
And<00:42:43.300><c> here's</c><00:42:43.719><c> Jonah,</c><00:42:44.139><c> so</c><00:42:44.780><c> miserable,</c>

00:42:45.480 --> 00:42:47.039
he<00:42:45.559><c> wants</c><00:42:45.739><c> to</c><00:42:45.980><c> die.</c><00:42:46.659><c> Why?</c>

00:42:47.039 --> 00:42:49.019
Because<00:42:47.599><c> a</c><00:42:47.920><c> plant</c><00:42:48.099><c> died.</c>

00:42:49.840 --> 00:42:51.079
I<00:42:50.000><c> mean,</c><00:42:50.099><c> if</c><00:42:50.239><c> you</c><00:42:50.460><c> want</c><00:42:50.519><c> to</c><00:42:50.639><c> be</c><00:42:50.800><c> miserable,</c>

00:42:51.119 --> 00:42:52.800
you<00:42:51.260><c> can</c><00:42:51.480><c> find</c><00:42:51.719><c> something</c><00:42:52.019><c> to</c><00:42:52.159><c> be</c><00:42:52.300><c> miserable</c><00:42:52.559><c> about.</c>

00:42:53.099 --> 00:42:54.599
You<00:42:53.159><c> go</c><00:42:53.280><c> out</c><00:42:53.400><c> in</c><00:42:53.460><c> your</c><00:42:53.679><c> garden</c><00:42:53.880><c> and</c><00:42:54.019><c> there's</c><00:42:54.119><c> some</c><00:42:54.380><c> weeds.</c>

00:42:54.679 --> 00:42:57.079
