Up they live guilty and. Condemned i've 81 00:04:14,360 --> 00:04:17,680 Speaker 2: seen people that have faults and. Weaknesses we all, do 82 00:04:18,240 --> 00:04:21,920 Speaker 2: but they're so hard on. Themselves instead of believing that they're, 83 00:04:22,000 --> 00:04:26,240 Speaker 2: growing instead of believing that they're, improving that voice tells, 84 00:04:26,279 --> 00:04:29,200 Speaker 2: them you can't do anything. Right you'll never break this. 85 00:04:29,320 --> 00:04:33,120 Speaker 2: Habit you're just a. Failure they end up living negative 86 00:04:33,240 --> 00:04:37,640 Speaker 2: and critical toward, themselves and it's because they receive all 87 00:04:37,839 --> 00:04:41,479 Speaker 2: the accusations that come to. Mind when they wake up 88 00:04:41,480 --> 00:04:44,280 Speaker 2: in the, morning a voice is telling them what they 89 00:04:44,320 --> 00:04:47,680 Speaker 2: did wrong yesterday and how they'll probably do something wrong. 90 00:04:47,760 --> 00:04:51,120 Speaker 2: Today but if we're going to live in, victory we've 91 00:04:51,160 --> 00:04:52,960 Speaker 2: got to learn to put our foot down and, say, 92 00:04:53,040 --> 00:04:56,240 Speaker 2: No i'm not gonna dwell on that junk.

Defeated after, all we don't feel like we 107 00:05:41,600 --> 00:05:43,760 Speaker 2: deserve to be, happy and we have to prove that 108 00:05:43,839 --> 00:05:46,960 Speaker 2: we're really. Sorry but, no we've got to learn to 109 00:05:47,120 --> 00:05:50,600 Speaker 2: just Receive god's.
