AND I THINK RIGHT NOW WE HAVE ANOPPORTUNITY TO EAT OUR SEED AND
00:21:28.099 --> 00:21:29.501
OPPORTUNITY TO EAT OUR SEED ANDSAY I ONLY HAVE ENOUGH FOR MY

OUR SEED INTO A HARVEST THAT WEDON'T KNOW WHAT WE'RE GONNA REAP
00:21:35.840 --> 00:21:36.741
DON'T KNOW WHAT WE'RE GONNA REAPBUT THERE WILL BE A REPERCUSSION
00:21:36.741 --> 00:21:37.676
BUT THERE WILL BE A REPERCUSSIONFROM A GOOD THING.
00:21:37.676 --> 00:21:42.247
FROM A GOOD THING.SO FOR ME, I LEARNED VERY MUCH
00:21:42.247 --> 00:21:44.316
SO FOR ME, I LEARNED VERY MUCHTHAT LESSON RECENTLY.
00:21:44.316 --> 00:21:46.318
THAT LESSON RECENTLY.AND I THINK FOR MANY OF US THAT
00:21:46.318 --> 00:21:47.952

WHERE YOU'VE GOT TO FIND WAYS TOGET THAT SCARCITY MENTALITY OFF

GET THAT SCARCITY MENTALITY OFFYOU.
00:21:53.224 --> 00:21:53.825

YOU DO NOT NEED TO BUY INTO FEARAND ANXIETY.
00:21:59.597 --> 00:22:01.499
AND ANXIETY.YOU DO NOT NEED TO HOARD.
00:22:01.499 --> 00:22:02.634
YOU DO NOT NEED TO HOARD.THAT IS THE SPIRIT OF AN ORPHAN.
00:22:02.634 --> 00:22:03.401
THAT IS THE SPIRIT OF AN ORPHAN.YOU HAVE BEEN CALLED AS SONS AND
00:22:03.401 --> 00:22:06.237
YOU HAVE BEEN CALLED AS SONS ANDDAUGHTERS INTO AN OWNERSHIP BY

AND I THINK I'VE EVEN HAVE TO DOIT IN SMALL WAYS AND NOT FIND
00:22:26.858 --> 00:22:28.293
IT IN SMALL WAYS AND NOT FINDMYSELF IN THE PANIC OF THE
00:22:28.293 --> 00:22:30.328
MYSELF IN THE PANIC OF THEGROCERY STORE BUYING AND TRYING

I HAD TO SAY, WAIT A MINUTE, IALREADY HAVE MORE THAT BE
00:22:34.899 --> 00:22:38.536
ALREADY HAVE MORE THAT BEENOUGH.
00:22:38.536 --> 00:22:40.305
ENOUGH.COOK WHAT YOU HAVE FIRST.
00:22:40.305 --> 00:22:41.473
COOK WHAT YOU HAVE FIRST.ACTUALLY, LET'S GO TO THE
00:22:41.473 --> 00:22:42.340
ACTUALLY, LET'S GO TO THEGROCERY STORE WHEN YOU RUN OUT
00:22:42.340 --> 00:22:45.744
GROCERY STORE WHEN YOU RUN OUTOF SOMETHING.
00:22:45.744 --> 00:22:50.348
OF SOMETHING.IN THOSE SMALL LITTLE THINGS WE
00:22:50.348 --> 00:22:50.982
IN THOSE SMALL LITTLE THINGS WESTART TO BECOME HOARDERS.
00:22:50.982 --> 00:22:52.217
START TO BECOME HOARDERS.WE START TO BECOME FEAR DRIVEN
00:22:52.217 --> 00:22:52.951
WE START TO BECOME FEAR DRIVENAND IT SPEAKS TO WHAT WE THINK
00:22:52.951 --> 00:22:53.385
AND IT SPEAKS TO WHAT WE THINKABOUT GOD.
00:22:53.385 --> 00:22:54.152
ABOUT GOD.AND, AGAIN, I'M ALWAYS ABOUT THE
00:22:54.152 --> 00:22:57.889
AND, AGAIN, I'M ALWAYS ABOUT THEWORLD WATCHING.
00:22:57.889 --> 00:22:58.757
WORLD WATCHING.AND I KNOW GOD REALLY DRIVES US
00:22:58.757 --> 00:22:59.457
AND I KNOW GOD REALLY DRIVES USTOWARD HIS HEART AND HOLINESS
00:22:59.457 --> 00:23:00.458
TOWARD HIS HEART AND HOLINESSAND ALL OF THESE THINGS FOR OUR
00:23:00.458 --> 00:23:01.226
AND ALL OF THESE THINGS FOR OURGROWTH AND OUR RELATIONSHIP WITH
00:23:01.226 --> 00:23:02.927
GROWTH AND OUR RELATIONSHIP WITHHIM, BUT I'M ALSO SO AWARE THAT
00:23:02.927 --> 00:23:04.829
HIM, BUT I'M ALSO SO AWARE THATTHE WORLD IS WATCHING.
00:23:04.829 --> 00:23:07.198
THE WORLD IS WATCHING.SO HOW CAN WE RESPOND THE SAME
00:23:07.198 --> 00:23:08.600
SO HOW CAN WE RESPOND THE SAMEWAY THE WORLD RESPONDS?
00:23:08.600 --> 00:23:10.869
WAY THE WORLD RESPONDS?IT IS COUNTERINTUITIVE TO GIVE
00:23:10.869 --> 00:23:12.904
IT IS COUNTERINTUITIVE TO GIVEIN A TIME OF SCARCITY.
00:23:12.904 --> 00:23:14.072
IN A TIME OF SCARCITY.IT IS COUNTERINTUITIVE TO BE
00:23:14.072 --> 00:23:16.775
IT IS COUNTERINTUITIVE TO BEGENEROUS WHEN EVERYONE IS TRYING
00:23:16.775 --> 00:23:19.677
GENEROUS WHEN EVERYONE IS TRYINGTO COVER THEIR OWN BASES.
00:23:19.677 --> 00:23:21.045
TO COVER THEIR OWN BASES.I THINK ALL OF THOSE ARE MOMENTS
00:23:21.045 --> 00:23:22.080
I THINK ALL OF THOSE ARE MOMENTSAND OPPORTUNITIES FOR US TO SAY,
00:23:22.080 --> 00:23:23.081
AND OPPORTUNITIES FOR US TO SAY,I DON'T HAVE TO HOLD ON TO
00:23:23.081 --> 00:23:24.516
I DON'T HAVE TO HOLD ON TOANYTHING BECAUSE GOD'S HOLDING
00:23:24.516 --> 00:23:26.618
ANYTHING BECAUSE GOD'S HOLDINGME, AND I CANNOT OUT GIVE HIM.
00:23:26.618 --> 00:23:28.586
ME, AND I CANNOT OUT GIVE HIM.WHATEVER I GIVE AWAY, EVEN IF I
00:23:28.586 --> 00:23:30.655
WHATEVER I GIVE AWAY, EVEN IF IMAKE A MISTAKE AND GIVE IT AWAY,
00:23:30.655 --> 00:23:31.990
MAKE A MISTAKE AND GIVE IT AWAY,GOD HAS GOT ME COVERED.
00:23:31.990 --> 00:23:33.124
GOD HAS GOT ME COVERED.AND HE GAVE IT TO ME IN THE
00:23:33.124 --> 00:23:33.658
AND HE GAVE IT TO ME IN THEFIRST PLACE.
00:23:33.658 --> 00:23:35.260
FIRST PLACE.SO I THINK A LOT OF THAT COMES
00:23:35.260 --> 00:23:38.830
SO I THINK A LOT OF THAT COMESFROM THIS GROUNDING BELIEF THAT
00:23:38.830 --> 00:23:41.599
FROM THIS GROUNDING BELIEF THATGOD REALLY HAS US COVERED.
00:23:41.599 --> 00:23:43.501
GOD REALLY HAS US COVERED.AND DO WE HAVE THE COURAGE TO
00:23:43.501 --> 00:23:44.803
AND DO WE HAVE THE COURAGE TOSOW THE SEED?
00:23:44.803 --> 00:23:47.071
SOW THE SEED?BECAUSE THE SEED IS ALWAYS
00:23:47.071 --> 00:23:48.339
BECAUSE THE SEED IS ALWAYSSACRIFICIAL.
00:23:48.339 --> 00:23:49.507
SACRIFICIAL.IT IS ALWAYS SACRIFICIAL.
00:23:49.507 --> 00:23:50.208
IT IS ALWAYS SACRIFICIAL.IT'S LIKE LISA SAID WITH THE
00:23:50.208 --> 00:23:51.075
IT'S LIKE LISA SAID WITH THEHUNDRED DOLLARS.
00:23:51.075 --> 00:23:54.279
HUNDRED DOLLARS.IT SEEMS IT'S ALWAYS TEMPTING TO
00:23:54.279 --> 00:23:55.079
IT SEEMS IT'S ALWAYS TEMPTING TOHOLD THAT THING AND TRY TO
00:23:55.079 --> 00:23:56.214
HOLD THAT THING AND TRY TOSTRETCH IT OUT AS OPPOSED TO
00:23:56.214 --> 00:23:57.549
STRETCH IT OUT AS OPPOSED TOGIVE IT BACK TO GOD AND WATCH
00:23:57.549 --> 00:23:58.783
GIVE IT BACK TO GOD AND WATCHHIM BLESS IT, WATCH HIM MAKE IT
00:23:58.783 --> 00:24:00.285
HIM BLESS IT, WATCH HIM MAKE ITEXPONENTIAL.
00:24:00.285 --> 00:24:01.753
EXPONENTIAL.WATCH HIM MAKE IT SOMETHING MORE
00:24:01.753 --> 00:24:03.188
