1
00:00:00,400 --> 00:00:03,160
Speaker 1: Hi, this is Joel and Victoria. Thanks for listening to

2
00:00:03,200 --> 00:00:05,960
Speaker 1: our podcast and thanks for supporting the ministry.

3
00:00:06,120 --> 00:00:08,440
Speaker 2: If you enjoy today's message, why don't you be a

4
00:00:08,480 --> 00:00:10,000
Speaker 2: blessing and share it with a friend.

5
00:00:10,360 --> 00:00:13,040
Speaker 1: We appreciate you and pray for God's very best in

6
00:00:13,080 --> 00:00:13,880
Speaker 1: your life.

7
00:00:14,120 --> 00:00:16,960
Speaker 2: I just want to talk to us today about appreciating

8
00:00:17,680 --> 00:00:21,800
Speaker 2: every area of our life. You know, when we appreciate something,

9
00:00:22,560 --> 00:00:27,320
Speaker 2: we bring awareness to it, we bring value to it,

10
00:00:28,200 --> 00:00:31,520
Speaker 2: and we are less likely to take it for granted.

11
00:00:32,200 --> 00:00:36,320
Speaker 2: In Deuteronomy ten through twelve, God was taking the children

12
00:00:36,400 --> 00:00:39,480
Speaker 2: of Israel to city they had not built. He said,

13
00:00:39,479 --> 00:00:42,600
Speaker 2: I'm giving you homes filled with great treasure. He said,

14
00:00:42,640 --> 00:00:45,840
Speaker 2: I'm giving you vineyards you didn't plow, but I'm giving

15
00:00:45,880 --> 00:00:48,239
Speaker 2: them to you so that you can work them. I'm

16
00:00:48,280 --> 00:00:50,839
Speaker 2: giving you homes with great treasure in them so that

17
00:00:50,960 --> 00:00:53,559
Speaker 2: you can live in them. And he went on and

18
00:00:53,600 --> 00:00:56,760
Speaker 2: on to tell all the wonderful gifts that he was

19
00:00:56,800 --> 00:01:00,480
Speaker 2: giving them. But then he warned them. He said, I

20
00:01:00,520 --> 00:01:03,560
Speaker 2: have to warn you. I'm giving you all of these things,

21
00:01:04,200 --> 00:01:07,480
Speaker 2: but don't take them for granted. He said, don't take

22
00:01:07,520 --> 00:01:11,240
Speaker 2: them for granted, and don't forget who gave them. To you,

23
00:01:11,400 --> 00:01:14,520
Speaker 2: don't take them for granted and not honor me.

24
00:01:15,800 --> 00:01:18,360
Speaker 3: See the same thing is happening today.

25
00:01:19,040 --> 00:01:22,200
Speaker 2: God has given us things, a great country to live in,

26
00:01:22,520 --> 00:01:26,960
Speaker 2: he's given us homes, He's given us family, friends, jobs,

27
00:01:27,560 --> 00:01:30,280
Speaker 2: and he is saying, don't forget who gave it to you,

28
00:01:30,800 --> 00:01:33,160
Speaker 2: and honor me in it.

29
00:01:33,760 --> 00:01:34,080
Speaker 3: You see.

30
00:01:34,120 --> 00:01:37,240
Speaker 2: I believe when we appreciate God, when we appreciate the

31
00:01:37,280 --> 00:01:40,080
Speaker 2: things that God has given us, we're honoring him.

32
00:01:41,160 --> 00:01:41,560
Speaker 3: You see.

33
00:01:41,680 --> 00:01:47,800
Speaker 2: Appreciation is a language, and it honors God. How many

34
00:01:47,880 --> 00:01:53,400
Speaker 2: of us have seen videos, are visited impoverished countries and realize.

35
00:01:53,280 --> 00:01:54,840
Speaker 3: How blessed we really are.

36
00:01:55,840 --> 00:02:03,760
Speaker 2: We have running waters, we have great grocery stores, restaurants,

37
00:02:04,200 --> 00:02:05,480
Speaker 2: whatever we need.

38
00:02:05,760 --> 00:02:08,240
Speaker 3: It's basically at our fingertips.

39
00:02:09,400 --> 00:02:14,200
Speaker 2: And we see these impoverished countries and people and our

40
00:02:14,240 --> 00:02:17,320
Speaker 2: heart goes out to them and we feel so compassionate and.

41
00:02:17,440 --> 00:02:18,480
Speaker 3: We feel so blessed.

42
00:02:18,560 --> 00:02:22,720
Speaker 2: Right then we get to our jobs, we get to

43
00:02:22,760 --> 00:02:28,840
Speaker 2: our homes. We face life challenges, decisions, things go wrong, and.

44
00:02:28,800 --> 00:02:31,400
Speaker 3: We forget about those things.

45
00:02:32,080 --> 00:02:40,360
Speaker 2: We forget how grateful we should be. We get comfortable, uninterested,

46
00:02:41,480 --> 00:02:45,080
Speaker 2: We take things for granted. It's easy to do and

47
00:02:45,120 --> 00:02:47,920
Speaker 2: we all do it. But can I tell you that

48
00:02:48,000 --> 00:02:51,680
Speaker 2: we've got to learn the language of appreciation. Have you

49
00:02:51,720 --> 00:02:54,440
Speaker 2: ever heard yourself say, I have to go to work. Oh,

50
00:02:54,480 --> 00:02:56,800
Speaker 2: I have to go pick up my kids, I have

51
00:02:56,880 --> 00:03:01,280
Speaker 2: to make dinner, Oh to clean up after my husband.

52
00:03:03,919 --> 00:03:08,799
Speaker 2: See the language of appreciation says this. It says, I

53
00:03:08,880 --> 00:03:10,840
Speaker 2: have I get to go to work because I have

54
00:03:10,919 --> 00:03:15,639
Speaker 2: a job. I'm so blessed to have my children. I'm

55
00:03:15,639 --> 00:03:19,240
Speaker 2: gonna go pick them up. Now I have a house,

56
00:03:20,040 --> 00:03:25,080
Speaker 2: I get to clean it. See that's the language of appreciation.

57
00:03:29,680 --> 00:03:31,480
Speaker 2: I was talking to a man the other day and

58
00:03:31,520 --> 00:03:35,200
Speaker 2: he was telling me. He actually showed me a list

59
00:03:35,400 --> 00:03:38,160
Speaker 2: of jobs that he had had ever since he was

60
00:03:38,160 --> 00:03:41,440
Speaker 2: a teenager. And he began at thirteen years old. He

61
00:03:41,520 --> 00:03:44,440
Speaker 2: was a paper boy. He went on to fifteen and

62
00:03:44,480 --> 00:03:50,320
Speaker 2: he started mowing lawns. Seventeen he was shoveling snow. Then

63
00:03:50,360 --> 00:03:52,520
Speaker 2: he went on to be a plumber. Then he went

64
00:03:52,560 --> 00:03:54,480
Speaker 2: on to be a pipe fitter. Then he went on

65
00:03:54,640 --> 00:03:57,280
Speaker 2: to be a contractor, then he went on to and

66
00:03:57,360 --> 00:03:58,760
Speaker 2: he was going on and on.

67
00:03:58,920 --> 00:04:01,480
Speaker 3: I thought, dear Lord, jobs as this man had.

68
00:04:01,680 --> 00:04:05,080
Speaker 2: But the purpose of showing me this list was this,

69
00:04:05,960 --> 00:04:08,800
Speaker 2: he said, I went back through my life and I

70
00:04:08,840 --> 00:04:11,320
Speaker 2: looked at every job that I've ever had, and he said,

71
00:04:11,320 --> 00:04:14,040
Speaker 2: I thought about it, and he said, what did that

72
00:04:14,160 --> 00:04:15,200
Speaker 2: job show me?

73
00:04:16,080 --> 00:04:18,120
Speaker 3: What did that job give me?

74
00:04:19,400 --> 00:04:22,599
Speaker 2: And he assigned a word to each one of those jobs,

75
00:04:23,320 --> 00:04:31,920
Speaker 2: words like commitment, perseverance, integrity, responsibility. He said, Victoria, you

76
00:04:32,000 --> 00:04:34,760
Speaker 2: know some of those jobs at the time, I couldn't

77
00:04:34,800 --> 00:04:36,320
Speaker 2: see how they even made sense.

78
00:04:37,080 --> 00:04:38,240
Speaker 3: He said. They were difficult.

79
00:04:38,640 --> 00:04:42,400
Speaker 2: They were hard, he says, But when I made this list,

80
00:04:42,839 --> 00:04:46,080
Speaker 2: he said, what it did is it showed me how

81
00:04:46,120 --> 00:04:48,719
Speaker 2: grateful I could be for each and every one of

82
00:04:48,760 --> 00:04:52,360
Speaker 2: these jobs, and how it developed my character and my

83
00:04:52,480 --> 00:04:56,200
Speaker 2: resolve for the next job. You know what he was doing,

84
00:04:56,960 --> 00:05:01,200
Speaker 2: he was adding value to his life. He was mining

85
00:05:01,480 --> 00:05:05,880
Speaker 2: the gold. See, sometimes we get stuck in those places

86
00:05:06,240 --> 00:05:08,800
Speaker 2: and we make excuses why we didn't get to the

87
00:05:08,839 --> 00:05:11,719
Speaker 2: next place, said, we had to do this, our parents

88
00:05:11,760 --> 00:05:13,680
Speaker 2: didn't bring us up right. Well, if I'd have had

89
00:05:13,720 --> 00:05:16,320
Speaker 2: an opportunity to go to college, well if I didn't

90
00:05:16,320 --> 00:05:17,359
Speaker 2: have to work this job.

91
00:05:18,880 --> 00:05:20,760
Speaker 3: You See, this man told me.

92
00:05:20,960 --> 00:05:24,839
Speaker 2: I read this list often, he said, because it helps

93
00:05:24,880 --> 00:05:28,280
Speaker 2: me be very aware and conscious of where I am

94
00:05:28,360 --> 00:05:30,640
Speaker 2: right now and the blessings in my life.

95
00:05:30,920 --> 00:05:33,480
Speaker 3: See, this man is a top.

96
00:05:33,320 --> 00:05:37,159
Speaker 2: Executive now at a million dollar company. He said, I

97
00:05:37,240 --> 00:05:39,880
Speaker 2: read it often. I never want to take this for granted.

98
00:05:40,920 --> 00:05:43,760
Speaker 2: You see, we should all dig the gold out of

99
00:05:43,760 --> 00:05:51,240
Speaker 2: our life. Yeah, we're going to face challenges. We're going

100
00:05:51,279 --> 00:05:54,080
Speaker 2: to face challenges. Things aren't always going to be easy.

101
00:05:54,560 --> 00:05:57,320
Speaker 2: But when we begin to look for the lessons, when

102
00:05:57,320 --> 00:06:00,520
Speaker 2: we begin to look for what can build it in us,

103
00:06:01,279 --> 00:06:04,440
Speaker 2: you know, that's when we're gonna find the value. That's

104
00:06:04,440 --> 00:06:07,200
Speaker 2: when we're gonna find the purpose. You see, when you're

105
00:06:07,279 --> 00:06:10,880
Speaker 2: appreciative and you look for the value in something, what

106
00:06:10,960 --> 00:06:14,960
Speaker 2: you're doing is you're adding to your life. Sometimes we

107
00:06:15,040 --> 00:06:17,480
Speaker 2: run around thinking there's a missing link if I can

108
00:06:17,680 --> 00:06:20,720
Speaker 2: only find that thing, And when you have an attitude

109
00:06:20,800 --> 00:06:24,640
Speaker 2: like that, you are lacking. And when you're lacking, it's

110
00:06:24,680 --> 00:06:28,799
Speaker 2: hard to find purpose. That's why, wherever you are today,

111
00:06:29,680 --> 00:06:32,919
Speaker 2: no matter how difficult it is, ask God to show

112
00:06:33,000 --> 00:06:35,000
Speaker 2: you where's the value in this?

113
00:06:35,160 --> 00:06:35,480
Speaker 3: God?

114
00:06:35,880 --> 00:06:39,440
Speaker 2: How can I appreciate this because it's something you've given me.

115
00:06:40,320 --> 00:06:40,640
Speaker 3: You see.

116
00:06:40,680 --> 00:06:44,039
Speaker 2: The happy people are the people that can be appreciative

117
00:06:44,120 --> 00:06:46,440
Speaker 2: of what they have right now on the way to

118
00:06:46,480 --> 00:06:47,239
Speaker 2: where they're going.

119
00:06:52,320 --> 00:06:54,680
Speaker 3: Have you ever heard that song you don't know what

120
00:06:54,720 --> 00:06:57,440
Speaker 3: you got till It's Gone. I think it's a country

121
00:06:57,480 --> 00:06:58,080
Speaker 3: Western song.

122
00:06:58,120 --> 00:07:02,640
Speaker 2: It sounds like it unfortunate that some people have to

123
00:07:02,720 --> 00:07:07,760
Speaker 2: lose something before they recognize the value in it. You see,

124
00:07:07,760 --> 00:07:11,480
Speaker 2: we shouldn't have to lose something to begin to appreciate it.

125
00:07:12,000 --> 00:07:13,560
Speaker 2: I was talking to a man the other day, and

126
00:07:13,560 --> 00:07:16,200
Speaker 2: he was telling me how he had struggled with this

127
00:07:16,360 --> 00:07:19,480
Speaker 2: long battle of cancer, and his recovery had been very difficult.

128
00:07:19,920 --> 00:07:21,640
Speaker 2: He said, but let me tell you, Victoria, I see

129
00:07:21,640 --> 00:07:24,400
Speaker 2: the world in a completely different way. How I viewed

130
00:07:24,400 --> 00:07:27,400
Speaker 2: my life before cancer is totally different than how I

131
00:07:27,520 --> 00:07:28,720
Speaker 2: view my life now.

132
00:07:29,120 --> 00:07:31,720
Speaker 3: He said. The important things to me are my friends

133
00:07:32,040 --> 00:07:34,360
Speaker 3: and my family. He said this, and I thought it

134
00:07:34,440 --> 00:07:35,720
Speaker 3: was so good. He said.

135
00:07:36,680 --> 00:07:39,400
Speaker 2: You know, when you've had cancer, he said, you realize

136
00:07:39,560 --> 00:07:41,840
Speaker 2: that a bucket list is overrated.

137
00:07:42,560 --> 00:07:42,960
Speaker 3: He said.

138
00:07:43,040 --> 00:07:49,560
Speaker 2: Experiencing and appreciating what you have every day is what's important.

139
00:07:50,800 --> 00:07:51,160
Speaker 3: You see.

140
00:07:51,200 --> 00:07:54,520
Speaker 2: We don't want to have to almost lose something to

141
00:07:54,600 --> 00:07:59,200
Speaker 2: appreciate what we have. We cannot get so comfortable and

142
00:07:59,280 --> 00:08:04,119
Speaker 2: so accustomed them to the blessings in our life. Someone

143
00:08:04,160 --> 00:08:06,600
Speaker 2: gave me a sculpture and I liked it. It was

144
00:08:06,640 --> 00:08:09,440
Speaker 2: really pretty. I put it up in my home, and

145
00:08:09,440 --> 00:08:12,160
Speaker 2: that sculpture was right where I went to put my

146
00:08:12,240 --> 00:08:14,600
Speaker 2: Christmas tree. So I took the sculpture down and I

147
00:08:14,600 --> 00:08:17,280
Speaker 2: short it in a back closet in my home. I

148
00:08:17,320 --> 00:08:20,200
Speaker 2: put all my Christmas decorations up. Okay, don't judge me,

149
00:08:20,240 --> 00:08:23,480
Speaker 2: but I put my Christmas decorations up a week before Thanksgiving.

150
00:08:23,880 --> 00:08:27,360
Speaker 2: But I take them down right after Christmas. I was

151
00:08:27,400 --> 00:08:31,160
Speaker 2: digging in a closet just not long ago, and I

152
00:08:31,400 --> 00:08:34,600
Speaker 2: noticed a sheet in the back of that closet, and

153
00:08:34,640 --> 00:08:35,360
Speaker 2: I thought, what is that?

154
00:08:35,880 --> 00:08:39,640
Speaker 3: And I pulled off the sheet and it was that statue.

155
00:08:40,200 --> 00:08:43,760
Speaker 2: Now, that statue had been in there about two years,

156
00:08:44,360 --> 00:08:46,360
Speaker 2: and I thought, oh my gosh, I forgot all about

157
00:08:46,440 --> 00:08:49,240
Speaker 2: the statue. You know, sometimes you get so much stuff

158
00:08:49,440 --> 00:08:52,600
Speaker 2: it's maybe some pretty things, you forget about what you have.

159
00:08:53,160 --> 00:08:55,640
Speaker 2: So I kind of just forgot all about the statue.

160
00:08:55,679 --> 00:08:58,080
Speaker 2: So I tossed the sheet back over it because I

161
00:08:58,120 --> 00:09:01,000
Speaker 2: was in a hurry, and I left. Well, a few

162
00:09:01,040 --> 00:09:03,400
Speaker 2: days later, I was with some friends of mine and

163
00:09:03,440 --> 00:09:07,480
Speaker 2: we were on a project and we were staging a table,

164
00:09:08,000 --> 00:09:10,000
Speaker 2: and so we had the table looking really good and

165
00:09:10,040 --> 00:09:13,560
Speaker 2: somebody said, you know, we need something special on this table.

166
00:09:13,600 --> 00:09:15,840
Speaker 2: We need something to set this table off, and so

167
00:09:15,880 --> 00:09:17,520
Speaker 2: we were looking for all these things.

168
00:09:17,520 --> 00:09:19,800
Speaker 3: What can we just top this table off with?

169
00:09:20,640 --> 00:09:23,600
Speaker 2: And in my mind I thought about that statue in

170
00:09:23,600 --> 00:09:24,240
Speaker 2: my closet with.

171
00:09:24,240 --> 00:09:26,559
Speaker 3: A sheet on it. I was like, Oh, that might

172
00:09:26,720 --> 00:09:27,520
Speaker 3: just look good.

173
00:09:27,920 --> 00:09:30,520
Speaker 2: So I had someone bring it where I was, and

174
00:09:30,559 --> 00:09:33,160
Speaker 2: so we put the statue on it, and all the

175
00:09:33,200 --> 00:09:36,439
Speaker 2: girls were like, whoa, that is beautiful.

176
00:09:37,160 --> 00:09:42,160
Speaker 3: That is the most perfect thing ever. That is so gorgeous.

177
00:09:42,679 --> 00:09:44,880
Speaker 2: And I stood back and I thought, that is pretty,

178
00:09:44,880 --> 00:09:50,000
Speaker 2: isn't it. It's amazing how I valued the beauty in

179
00:09:50,040 --> 00:09:54,840
Speaker 2: that statue because everyone else did so. On my way home,

180
00:09:54,920 --> 00:09:57,920
Speaker 2: I was thinking to myself, I got to find something

181
00:09:58,080 --> 00:10:02,760
Speaker 2: like that because I want my statue back. So I

182
00:10:02,760 --> 00:10:05,120
Speaker 2: got home and I got on the internet and I

183
00:10:05,160 --> 00:10:06,640
Speaker 2: started looking looking.

184
00:10:06,400 --> 00:10:08,520
Speaker 3: What can I get that's like that? What can I

185
00:10:08,520 --> 00:10:09,240
Speaker 3: get that's like that?

186
00:10:10,160 --> 00:10:13,880
Speaker 2: And to my surprise, I realized that that statue was

187
00:10:13,920 --> 00:10:17,240
Speaker 2: a limited edition. The artist only made a few and

188
00:10:17,280 --> 00:10:20,760
Speaker 2: you couldn't get it anymore. And then I found a

189
00:10:20,800 --> 00:10:25,600
Speaker 2: gallery that was looking for that specific statue. They wanted

190
00:10:25,640 --> 00:10:30,000
Speaker 2: to buy it. I was like, oh my gosh, this

191
00:10:30,080 --> 00:10:31,240
Speaker 2: is something so valuable.

192
00:10:31,920 --> 00:10:34,720
Speaker 3: I want my statue back. I want my statue back.

193
00:10:35,080 --> 00:10:37,880
Speaker 2: That's all I could think about, was getting my statue back.

194
00:10:38,840 --> 00:10:41,600
Speaker 3: You see, sometimes we don't appreciate.

195
00:10:41,400 --> 00:10:51,679
Speaker 2: Things until someone else sees the value in them. You

196
00:10:51,720 --> 00:10:56,000
Speaker 2: see what you're taking for granted today, someone else may

197
00:10:56,040 --> 00:10:56,840
Speaker 2: be praying for.

198
00:10:59,120 --> 00:11:02,839
Speaker 3: Some things can't be placed. They're one of a kind.

199
00:11:04,400 --> 00:11:08,480
Speaker 2: Your mother, your father, children's faust.

200
00:11:09,559 --> 00:11:10,400
Speaker 3: Don't neglect it.

201
00:11:12,080 --> 00:11:15,200
Speaker 2: Don't get so used to it that you forget the

202
00:11:15,240 --> 00:11:17,200
Speaker 2: precious gift that it really is.

203
00:11:19,000 --> 00:11:19,320
Speaker 3: You see.

204
00:11:19,360 --> 00:11:23,400
Speaker 2: I believe the happiest people are the people who appreciate

205
00:11:23,880 --> 00:11:26,880
Speaker 2: what they have right now and place value on it.

206
00:11:27,520 --> 00:11:30,200
Speaker 2: Because when you place value on it, it places.

207
00:11:29,960 --> 00:11:32,560
Speaker 3: Value on you and your life.

208
00:11:33,160 --> 00:11:35,960
Speaker 2: Listen, God's taken us to great places, but he never

209
00:11:36,000 --> 00:11:38,840
Speaker 2: wants us to take for granted everything that has given

210
00:11:38,960 --> 00:11:39,880
Speaker 2: us right now.

211
00:11:39,920 --> 00:11:44,120
Speaker 3: Amen, Amen, It's.

212
00:11:43,960 --> 00:11:46,320
Speaker 4: Easy to let the day get away from us before

213
00:11:46,360 --> 00:11:49,120
Speaker 4: the day even starts. The first few minutes of your

214
00:11:49,160 --> 00:11:52,560
Speaker 4: morning are more powerful than you might think. Life moves

215
00:11:52,600 --> 00:11:55,520
Speaker 4: really fast sometimes, and it can be easy to begin

216
00:11:55,640 --> 00:11:58,960
Speaker 4: each day by zeroing in on your problems. But here's

217
00:11:59,000 --> 00:11:59,559
Speaker 4: the truth.

218
00:12:00,320 --> 00:12:02,760
Speaker 1: How you start the day can determine what kind of

219
00:12:02,840 --> 00:12:05,000
