00:12:13.945 --> 00:12:15.413
CAN TELL IF YOUR DREAM ISGOD-GIVEN.
00:12:15.413 --> 00:12:17.015
GOD-GIVEN.BECAUSE IF YOU CAN ACCOMPLISH
00:12:17.015 --> 00:12:19.217
BECAUSE IF YOU CAN ACCOMPLISHIT ON YOUR OWN, THEN IT IS NOT
00:12:19.217 --> 00:12:21.286
IT ON YOUR OWN, THEN IT IS NOTA GOD-SIZED DREAM.

MANY TIMES-- LIKE THE DREAMERIN THE BIBLE, JOSEPH.
00:12:29.828 --> 00:12:31.462
IN THE BIBLE, JOSEPH.YOU KNOW, YOU ALWAYS COME BACK
00:12:31.462 --> 00:12:32.664
YOU KNOW, YOU ALWAYS COME BACKTO HIM, BECAUSE GOD GAVE HIM A
00:12:32.664 --> 00:12:35.400
TO HIM, BECAUSE GOD GAVE HIM ADREAM.
00:12:35.400 --> 00:12:36.701

00:12:36.701 --> 00:12:38.236
AND GOD MADE HIS DREAM SOALMOST OBSCURE AND SO BIG THAT
00:12:38.236 --> 00:12:40.738
ALMOST OBSCURE AND SO BIG THATHE HAD TO GO BACK TO GOD TO

00:12:46.311 --> 00:12:47.478
AND THEN, HE GOT SO EXCITEDABOUT WHAT GOD COULD DO THAT HE
00:12:47.478 --> 00:12:48.112
ABOUT WHAT GOD COULD DO THAT HESTARTED TELLING EVERYBODY HIS

THEY COULD HAVE BEEN PART OFTHAT DREAM.
00:13:23.014 --> 00:13:25.450

ARTICULATE IT TO," YOU KNOW,YOU NEED TO GO TO GOD AND GET
00:13:50.642 --> 00:13:52.076
YOU NEED TO GO TO GOD AND GETMORE INFORMATION ON YOUR DREAM.
00:13:52.076 --> 00:13:53.111
MORE INFORMATION ON YOUR DREAM.AND I REALLY THINK THAT, YOU

AND I REALLY THINK THAT, YOUKNOW, JOSEPH HAD SUCH AN IMAGE
00:13:55.246 --> 00:13:56.514
KNOW, JOSEPH HAD SUCH AN IMAGEON THE INSIDE OF HIM OF GOD
00:13:56.514 --> 00:13:59.918
ON THE INSIDE OF HIM OF GODTHAT THAT'S WHAT CAUSED HIM TO
00:13:59.918 --> 00:14:01.219
THAT THAT'S WHAT CAUSED HIM TOOVERCOME EVERY OBSTACLE THAT HE
00:14:01.219 --> 00:14:02.453
OVERCOME EVERY OBSTACLE THAT HEEVER FACED.
00:14:02.453 --> 00:14:04.055
EVER FACED.THAT'S WHAT KEPT HIM GOING.
00:14:04.055 --> 00:14:05.390
THAT'S WHAT KEPT HIM GOING.AND I THINK THAT'S WHAT'S GONNA
00:14:05.390 --> 00:14:06.691
AND I THINK THAT'S WHAT'S GONNAHAVE TO KEEP US GOING.
00:14:06.691 --> 00:14:08.159
HAVE TO KEEP US GOING.BECAUSE WE KNOW DREAMS EVOLVE.
00:14:08.159 --> 00:14:09.861
BECAUSE WE KNOW DREAMS EVOLVE.WE CAN'T SEE THE END OF THAT
00:14:09.861 --> 00:14:12.997
WE CAN'T SEE THE END OF THATDREAM.
00:14:12.997 --> 00:14:15.066
DREAM.WE CAN ONLY SEE THE NEXT STEP.
00:14:15.066 --> 00:14:16.167
WE CAN ONLY SEE THE NEXT STEP.AND I LOVE THE FACT THAT THE
00:14:16.167 --> 00:14:17.268
AND I LOVE THE FACT THAT THEGIRLS WERE SAYING, YOU KNOW,
00:14:17.268 --> 00:14:18.703
GIRLS WERE SAYING, YOU KNOW,PEOPLE DREAMED FOR THEM.
00:14:18.703 --> 00:14:20.171
PEOPLE DREAMED FOR THEM.AND, YOU KNOW, I LOVE WHEN
00:14:20.171 --> 00:14:21.773
AND, YOU KNOW, I LOVE WHENPEOPLE SPEAK INTO OUR LIVES.
00:14:21.773 --> 00:14:23.374
PEOPLE SPEAK INTO OUR LIVES.BUT WE'VE GOTTA LEARN TO
00:14:23.374 --> 00:14:24.208
BUT WE'VE GOTTA LEARN TORECEIVE THAT.
00:14:24.208 --> 00:14:27.011
RECEIVE THAT.AND WE ALSO NEED TO KNOW THAT,
00:14:27.011 --> 00:14:28.012
AND WE ALSO NEED TO KNOW THAT,YOU KNOW, EACH STEP LEADS TO
00:14:28.012 --> 00:14:28.980
YOU KNOW, EACH STEP LEADS TOTHE NEXT STEP.
00:14:28.980 --> 00:14:30.114
THE NEXT STEP.AND, YEAH, WE'RE GONNA DO SOME
00:14:30.114 --> 00:14:31.516
AND, YEAH, WE'RE GONNA DO SOMETHINGS THAT ARE PROBABLY GONNA
00:14:31.516 --> 00:14:33.551
THINGS THAT ARE PROBABLY GONNACAUSE US MAYBE TO DETOUR OR
00:14:33.551 --> 00:14:35.653
CAUSE US MAYBE TO DETOUR ORMAYBE WE'RE GONNA LEARN
00:14:35.653 --> 00:14:38.990
MAYBE WE'RE GONNA LEARNSOMETHING IN THAT STEP OF FAITH
00:14:38.990 --> 00:14:39.958
SOMETHING IN THAT STEP OF FAITHTHAT WE NEED FOR THE NEXT STEP.
00:14:39.958 --> 00:14:42.460
THAT WE NEED FOR THE NEXT STEP.SO, DREAMS ARE AN INTERESTING,
00:14:42.460 --> 00:14:43.227
SO, DREAMS ARE AN INTERESTING,INTERESTING THING.
00:14:43.227 --> 00:14:44.162
INTERESTING THING.YOU KNOW, WE'VE GOTTA BE
00:14:44.162 --> 00:14:46.464
YOU KNOW, WE'VE GOTTA BEPATIENT, BECAUSE WE KNOW THAT
00:14:46.464 --> 00:14:47.465
PATIENT, BECAUSE WE KNOW THATPATIENCE IS POWERFUL AND IT
00:14:47.465 --> 00:14:49.200
PATIENCE IS POWERFUL AND ITBRINGS FORTH THE PROMISES OF
00:14:49.200 --> 00:14:51.002
BRINGS FORTH THE PROMISES OFGOD.
00:14:51.002 --> 00:14:52.003
GOD.BUT WE HAVE TO-- LIKE ELAINE
00:14:52.003 --> 00:14:53.404
BUT WE HAVE TO-- LIKE ELAINESAID, WE GOTTA SHOW UP.
00:14:53.404 --> 00:14:54.572
SAID, WE GOTTA SHOW UP.WE GOTTA SHOW UP, EVEN WHEN WE
00:14:54.572 --> 00:14:56.207
WE GOTTA SHOW UP, EVEN WHEN WEDON'T FEEL LIKE WE HAVE THE
00:14:56.207 --> 00:14:57.608
DON'T FEEL LIKE WE HAVE THERESOURCES, THE TALENT, OR THE
00:14:57.608 --> 00:15:00.011
RESOURCES, THE TALENT, OR THEABILITY.
00:15:00.011 --> 00:15:00.645
ABILITY.BECAUSE WE KNOW IF GOD SPOKE
00:15:00.645 --> 00:15:01.679
BECAUSE WE KNOW IF GOD SPOKESOMETHING, IF HE'S PUT
00:15:01.679 --> 00:15:03.414
SOMETHING, IF HE'S PUTSOMETHING INSIDE US, HE'S GOING

SOMETHING INSIDE US, HE'S GOINGTO SUPPLY.
00:15:04.349 --> 00:15:05.316
TO SUPPLY.AND THAT'S THE KEY TO DREAMS:
00:15:05.316 --> 00:15:07.418
AND THAT'S THE KEY TO DREAMS:WE CAN'T ONLY FOLLOW A DREAM IF
00:15:07.418 --> 00:15:08.720
WE CAN'T ONLY FOLLOW A DREAM IFWE HAVE ENOUGH; WE HAVE TO
00:15:08.720 --> 00:15:09.787
WE HAVE ENOUGH; WE HAVE TOFOLLOW A DREAM BECAUSE WE KNOW
00:15:09.787 --> 00:15:11.422
FOLLOW A DREAM BECAUSE WE KNOWTHAT GOD IS MORE THAN ENOUGH.
00:15:11.422 --> 00:15:13.424
THAT GOD IS MORE THAN ENOUGH.- JAMIE: THAT'S SO GOOD.

EVER IMAGINE IS SO ENCOURAGING,AND I THINK IT CAN, ALSO, FEEL
00:15:20.798 --> 00:15:22.166
AND I THINK IT CAN, ALSO, FEELA LITTLE SCARY, SOMETIMES.
00:15:22.166 --> 00:15:23.701
A LITTLE SCARY, SOMETIMES.'CAUSE I IMAGINE SOMETIMES I'M

AND I THINK, FOR ME, THAT'S AFUN PLACE TO BE.
00:15:33.011 --> 00:15:33.644
FUN PLACE TO BE.BECAUSE I'M THINKING: OKAY,
00:15:33.644 --> 00:15:35.013
BECAUSE I'M THINKING: OKAY,THIS IS SO CRAZY, IT'S SO,
00:15:35.013 --> 00:15:37.081

THIS?"AND, THE THING THAT IS SO
00:15:51.629 --> 00:15:53.231
AND, THE THING THAT IS SOAMAZING ABOUT GOD IS THAT HE
00:15:53.231 --> 00:15:54.665
AMAZING ABOUT GOD IS THAT HEGIVES US A WAY TO KNOW.
00:15:54.665 --> 00:15:55.600
GIVES US A WAY TO KNOW.HE DIDN'T JUST LEAVE US HERE
00:15:55.600 --> 00:15:58.202
HE DIDN'T JUST LEAVE US HEREAND ASK US TO FIGURE THINGS OUT
00:15:58.202 --> 00:15:59.237
AND ASK US TO FIGURE THINGS OUTON OUR OWN.
00:15:59.237 --> 00:16:00.972
ON OUR OWN.HE DOESN'T JUST SAY: WELL...
00:16:00.972 --> 00:16:03.074
HE DOESN'T JUST SAY: WELL...JUST KINDA TAKE A GUESS AND SEE

JUST KINDA TAKE A GUESS AND SEEWHERE IT IS.
00:16:04.208 --> 00:16:06.144
WHERE IT IS.BUT...HE GAVE US HIS WORD AND

00:16:09.347 --> 00:16:10.448
AND, WITH THOSE TWO THINGS,GUYS, WE CAN DO ANYTHING,
00:16:10.448 --> 00:16:11.916
GUYS, WE CAN DO ANYTHING,BECAUSE THIS IS HOW GOD TALKS
00:16:11.916 --> 00:16:13.351
BECAUSE THIS IS HOW GOD TALKSTO US, AS HIS PEOPLE.
