Speaker 4: this podcast. I believe God has amazing things in your future.

37
00:01:38,080 --> 00:01:49,680
Speaker 4: I hope you enjoy this message. I just want to

38
00:01:49,760 --> 00:01:54,040
Speaker 4: encourage all of us today to keep healthy connections with

39
00:01:54,160 --> 00:01:58,000
Speaker 4: our families. You know, going forward in twenty seventeen, we

40
00:01:58,040 --> 00:02:02,040
Speaker 4: need to make sure that we're making a personal investment

41
00:02:02,120 --> 00:02:06,040
Speaker 4: into our family members, that we're building strong bonds, and

42
00:02:06,080 --> 00:02:10,720
Speaker 4: we're creating trust and security in our families. It's so

43
00:02:11,000 --> 00:02:14,160
Speaker 4: easy in this culture with everything that we have to

44
00:02:14,200 --> 00:02:16,520
Speaker 4: do and all the technology that we have to get

45
00:02:16,560 --> 00:02:19,600
Speaker 4: things done more quickly. We have to make sure that

46
00:02:19,680 --> 00:02:23,120
Speaker 4: we don't just breeze by one another and not make

47
00:02:23,280 --> 00:02:26,880
Speaker 4: personal connections. There's so much to do, there's so many

48
00:02:26,880 --> 00:02:29,280
Speaker 4: people to see. It's up to us to make the

49
00:02:29,400 --> 00:02:33,320
Speaker 4: choices and priorities to connect with those that we love.

50
00:02:33,840 --> 00:02:35,640
Speaker 4: You know, Joel and I have to make it a

51
00:02:35,720 --> 00:02:40,480
Speaker 4: priority to spend personal quality time together.

52
00:02:41,000 --> 00:02:41,120
Speaker 3: Now.

53
00:02:41,200 --> 00:02:44,320
Speaker 4: Joel and I are together a lot. We work together.

54
00:02:45,120 --> 00:02:48,280
Speaker 4: I'm not talking about coexisting in a home. I'm not

55
00:02:48,400 --> 00:02:52,799
Speaker 4: talking about working in a task together. I'm talking about

56
00:02:53,160 --> 00:02:57,280
Speaker 4: making investments in the life of people that you love,

57
00:02:58,080 --> 00:03:02,720
Speaker 4: making personal time to to find out what they like,

58
00:03:03,280 --> 00:03:06,000
Speaker 4: to be a part of what they like, to enjoy

59
00:03:06,080 --> 00:03:09,480
Speaker 4: their gifts, enjoy their talents. You know, Joel and I,

60
00:03:09,560 --> 00:03:12,799
Speaker 4: we love to take walks together. We love to ride

61
00:03:12,840 --> 00:03:15,760
Speaker 4: our bikes. We'll go on a date night every now

62
00:03:15,760 --> 00:03:18,920
Speaker 4: and then. Sometimes we just get in the car and

63
00:03:18,960 --> 00:03:22,440
Speaker 4: we drive nowhere. But these are times that we have

64
00:03:22,560 --> 00:03:27,040
Speaker 4: created to just be together, not to talk about work,

65
00:03:27,400 --> 00:03:30,880
Speaker 4: not to necessarily talk about a problem or an issue

66
00:03:30,880 --> 00:03:34,760
Speaker 4: that we're facing, but to just be together, maybe not

67
00:03:34,840 --> 00:03:39,480
Speaker 4: even talk at all, maybe just connecting in the presence

68
00:03:39,560 --> 00:03:43,440
Speaker 4: of the moment. You see, We've got to take the

69
00:03:43,560 --> 00:03:47,320
Speaker 4: time and set the priorities and standards in our life

70
00:03:47,680 --> 00:03:51,440
Speaker 4: to connect with those we love. You See, if Joel

71
00:03:51,440 --> 00:03:54,160
Speaker 4: and I just work all the time, if we're together

72
00:03:54,280 --> 00:03:57,800
Speaker 4: but we're just existing and working and under the load

73
00:03:57,880 --> 00:04:02,720
Speaker 4: of life, we're not gonna sure and nurture a relationship

74
00:04:02,760 --> 00:04:07,600
Speaker 4: that's going to flourish, that's going to stay connected. See,

75
00:04:07,640 --> 00:04:10,640
Speaker 4: We've got to join our hearts together and build bridges

76
00:04:11,080 --> 00:04:14,280
Speaker 4: on those things that we connect with on a personal basis.

77
00:04:14,840 --> 00:04:17,680
Speaker 4: You see, I know what to expect from Joel because

78
00:04:17,680 --> 00:04:22,200
Speaker 4: I've spent time quality time connecting with him. He knows

79
00:04:22,200 --> 00:04:25,799
Speaker 4: what to expect from me. We know what we think.

80
00:04:26,080 --> 00:04:28,440
Speaker 4: I know when to leave him alone. I know when

81
00:04:28,440 --> 00:04:30,000
Speaker 4: he wants to sit in his big chair and watch

82
00:04:30,000 --> 00:04:30,960
Speaker 4: Will of Fortune.

83
00:04:31,120 --> 00:04:31,719
Speaker 5: I know.

84
00:04:33,120 --> 00:04:37,680
Speaker 4: The things he likes to do to unplug, and those

85
00:04:37,680 --> 00:04:40,080
Speaker 4: are at the times I go in with all of

86
00:04:40,120 --> 00:04:43,239
Speaker 4: the things that I want to talk about. You see,

87
00:04:43,279 --> 00:04:46,680
Speaker 4: I've learned him so when I have an intimate and

88
00:04:46,760 --> 00:04:50,599
Speaker 4: personal relationship with him, knowing what he likes, what he dislikes,

89
00:04:50,640 --> 00:04:52,520
Speaker 4: what I expect of him, what he expects of me,

90
00:04:53,120 --> 00:04:55,360
Speaker 4: those boundaries that we like to set in our life.

91
00:04:55,800 --> 00:04:58,920
Speaker 4: When I know these things, I can work with him better.

92
00:04:59,279 --> 00:05:04,760
Speaker 4: When you've created something, not just done life together, not

93
00:05:04,880 --> 00:05:09,920
Speaker 4: just doing life together, but creating a life together. That's

94
00:05:10,000 --> 00:05:13,400
Speaker 4: when things will change in your life. See, I believe

95
00:05:13,440 --> 00:05:17,200
Speaker 4: it's the same way with our children. We can't always

96
00:05:17,279 --> 00:05:21,680
Speaker 4: be on the job raising our children. We've got to

97
00:05:21,839 --> 00:05:25,680
Speaker 4: enjoy our children. We need to learn to communicate with

98
00:05:25,720 --> 00:05:31,799
Speaker 4: our children. See their gifts and talents, enjoy their individuality,

99
00:05:32,680 --> 00:05:36,159
Speaker 4: experience their ideas. You see, We've got to get to

100
00:05:36,240 --> 00:05:40,880
Speaker 4: a personal relationship with our children. We've got to create

101
00:05:41,200 --> 00:05:45,920
Speaker 4: a connection so that our connection will grow and flourish

102
00:05:46,000 --> 00:05:48,920
Speaker 4: through the years. I enjoy my children as much today

103
00:05:49,000 --> 00:05:51,120
Speaker 4: as I did when they were little, when they used

104
00:05:51,160 --> 00:05:55,080
Speaker 4: to say the cutest things and do the craziest things.

105
00:05:56,320 --> 00:05:59,799
Speaker 4: You see. I enjoy them as adults in college right now.

106
00:06:00,279 --> 00:06:04,960
Speaker 4: In fact, I learn from them. I enjoy them, I

107
00:06:05,120 --> 00:06:09,200
Speaker 4: allow them to have their ideas. Now, I want to

108
00:06:09,240 --> 00:06:13,280
Speaker 4: tell you, sometimes time seems so short, and we only

109
00:06:13,320 --> 00:06:15,920
Speaker 4: get a certain time with our children. So we fall

110
00:06:15,920 --> 00:06:21,839
Speaker 4: into this trap of making these moments a lesson in life,

111
00:06:22,080 --> 00:06:25,480
Speaker 4: a teaching moment. You're spending time with your child and

112
00:06:25,560 --> 00:06:28,440
Speaker 4: you can see maybe something that could happen or something

113
00:06:28,440 --> 00:06:31,279
Speaker 4: that you've experienced, and you want to insert this life lesson.

114
00:06:32,040 --> 00:06:35,320
Speaker 4: I can tell you I am so guilty of that.

115
00:06:35,880 --> 00:06:39,839
Speaker 4: I am like super guilty of that. But I've learned,

116
00:06:40,200 --> 00:06:42,120
Speaker 4: and you know, my children have helped me learn this

117
00:06:42,560 --> 00:06:46,040
Speaker 4: that not every moment has to be a teaching moment. Yes,

118
00:06:46,120 --> 00:06:48,120
Speaker 4: we want to teach our children, we want to train

119
00:06:48,200 --> 00:06:51,480
Speaker 4: our children, but we also want to enjoy our children.

120
00:06:52,440 --> 00:06:56,240
Speaker 4: We want to develop a relationship with them, we want

121
00:06:56,279 --> 00:07:00,679
Speaker 4: to connect with them. So we have opportunity in the future.

122
00:07:01,480 --> 00:07:04,400
Speaker 4: Now you may have, you know, children that are out

123
00:07:04,400 --> 00:07:07,440
Speaker 4: of your house. That's okay, you can still connect with

124
00:07:07,480 --> 00:07:12,880
Speaker 4: your children. See, it takes work to form good relationships.

125
00:07:12,960 --> 00:07:16,360
Speaker 4: They don't just happen. They must be created. We have

126
00:07:16,560 --> 00:07:20,840
Speaker 4: to sacrifice our personal time to have quality time with

127
00:07:20,960 --> 00:07:26,840
Speaker 4: those we love. It takes a commitment, It takes an availability. See,

128
00:07:26,840 --> 00:07:30,080
Speaker 4: if we're gonna build strong families and strong relationships, we're

129
00:07:30,080 --> 00:07:33,600
Speaker 4: gonna have to do our part. You know, sharing meals

130
00:07:33,600 --> 00:07:37,360
Speaker 4: together is a great way to spend quality time. Maybe

131
00:07:37,400 --> 00:07:41,040
Speaker 4: dinner doesn't work, they're soccer practice. Maybe you've got commitments,

132
00:07:41,320 --> 00:07:45,040
Speaker 4: But can you share breakfast? Can you share lunch? Can

133
00:07:45,080 --> 00:07:49,920
Speaker 4: you have conversation over a snack? You see, study after

134
00:07:50,000 --> 00:07:54,200
Speaker 4: study has proven that when you take time to build

135
00:07:54,240 --> 00:07:57,920
Speaker 4: relationship over a meal, that your children are less likely

136
00:07:58,000 --> 00:08:02,440
Speaker 4: to experiment with drugs and alcohol. That creating this atmosphere

137
00:08:02,480 --> 00:08:04,680
Speaker 4: over a meal four to five times a week, or

138
00:08:04,720 --> 00:08:07,520
Speaker 4: as often as you can it builds such a bond

139
00:08:07,560 --> 00:08:10,880
Speaker 4: of trust and so much self esteem and character that

140
00:08:10,880 --> 00:08:14,880
Speaker 4: they're less likely to go off and allow their peers

141
00:08:15,080 --> 00:08:18,440
Speaker 4: to direct their life because you've made an investment in

142
00:08:18,480 --> 00:08:26,559
Speaker 4: their life. I believe it's our responsibility and it's well

143
00:08:26,600 --> 00:08:30,320
Speaker 4: worth the time and effort to enjoy our family as

144
00:08:30,360 --> 00:08:33,720
Speaker 4: a whole. You know, this isn't just a quick fix.

145
00:08:34,040 --> 00:08:37,520
Speaker 4: This is a long term investment. See what you plant now,

146
00:08:37,720 --> 00:08:41,840
Speaker 4: you're gonna read later. You're gonna enjoy the benefits of

147
00:08:41,920 --> 00:08:46,600
Speaker 4: your family. So it's well worth it. And single parents

148
00:08:46,640 --> 00:08:50,400
Speaker 4: can I tell you that you're more than enough God,

149
00:08:50,520 --> 00:08:54,120
Speaker 4: and you are a majority. There's nothing that God won't

150
00:08:54,160 --> 00:08:58,439
Speaker 4: help you with as you share with your family, as

151
00:08:58,480 --> 00:09:02,760
Speaker 4: you make some sacrifice, even though it's tough. Maybe your

152
00:09:02,840 --> 00:09:04,880
Speaker 4: children are out of the house. I encourage you to

153
00:09:04,920 --> 00:09:07,280
Speaker 4: call them up on the phone, invite them over for dinner,

154
00:09:08,200 --> 00:09:10,720
Speaker 4: meet them at a restaurant, not to tell them what

155
00:09:10,760 --> 00:09:12,679
Speaker 4: they're doing. Wrong. Not to tell them what they can

156
00:09:12,720 --> 00:09:15,440
Speaker 4: do better, but just to tell them that you're proud

157
00:09:15,480 --> 00:09:19,480
Speaker 4: of them, to tell them how great they are. You see,

158
00:09:19,520 --> 00:09:22,880
Speaker 4: sometimes we want to mold our family members into the

159
00:09:22,880 --> 00:09:25,240
Speaker 4: shape that we want them to be. We want to

160
00:09:25,280 --> 00:09:28,440
Speaker 4: fix all their problems. But I'm telling you right now,

161
00:09:28,640 --> 00:09:32,000
Speaker 4: we can't fix their problems. Only God can. All we

162
00:09:32,040 --> 00:09:36,640
Speaker 4: can do is love them, show unconditional love. Spend quality time,

163
00:09:36,880 --> 00:09:41,840
Speaker 4: and make personal investments. Just take time to have fun

164
00:09:41,880 --> 00:09:44,320
Speaker 4: with your family. Maybe you want to go to the movies,

165
00:09:44,800 --> 00:09:49,280
Speaker 4: play some games. Whatever you do, just make sure that

166
00:09:49,360 --> 00:09:53,080
Speaker 4: you're laughing, that you're having fun, that life is not

167
00:09:53,400 --> 00:09:56,640
Speaker 4: so serious and such a struggle that you forget the

168
00:09:56,760 --> 00:10:01,800
Speaker 4: joys of life, making memories and laughing. Laughter is a medicine.

169
00:10:02,080 --> 00:10:05,600
Speaker 4: The Bible talks about him, Mary heart is like a medicine.

170
00:10:05,720 --> 00:10:08,080
Speaker 4: I'm telling you it will fix a lot of things.

171
00:10:08,640 --> 00:10:11,160
Speaker 4: I was reading in the Bible about Sarah and Abraham,

172
00:10:11,240 --> 00:10:14,000
Speaker 4: and many of you know the story. God had made

173
00:10:14,040 --> 00:10:17,000
Speaker 4: a promise to Abraham and Sarah that they would have

174
00:10:17,080 --> 00:10:20,440
Speaker 4: a child, and years and years had passed and they'd

175
00:10:20,440 --> 00:10:23,160
Speaker 4: struggled through life. I'm sure it was weary. I'm sure

176
00:10:23,440 --> 00:10:25,600
Speaker 4: from some of the mistakes they had made. They were

177
00:10:25,640 --> 00:10:29,320
Speaker 4: burning down. One day, God showed up at Abraham's tent

178
00:10:29,760 --> 00:10:33,600
Speaker 4: and he said, Abraham, this time next year you're gonna

179
00:10:33,600 --> 00:10:38,480
Speaker 4: have this son. And you know what Abraham did. Abraham laughed. Now,

180
00:10:38,480 --> 00:10:41,200
Speaker 4: the Bible doesn't tell us why he laughed, but you

181
00:10:41,240 --> 00:10:43,440
Speaker 4: know why I believe he laughed. I believe he laughed

182
00:10:43,480 --> 00:10:47,520
Speaker 4: because he needed a stretch reliever. He needed to just say,

183
00:10:47,520 --> 00:10:51,280
Speaker 4: Oh God, okay. You know the Bible talks about you know,

184
00:10:51,320 --> 00:10:53,000
Speaker 4: when you look into your future, you have to be

185
00:10:53,040 --> 00:10:55,320
Speaker 4: able to laugh. You have to be able to trust

186
00:10:55,360 --> 00:10:58,480
Speaker 4: God with your future. Laugh at those things to come.

187
00:10:59,000 --> 00:11:02,480
Speaker 4: Laughter help. When Sarah heard she was gonna have a child,

188
00:11:02,480 --> 00:11:05,960
Speaker 4: what she did She let out a giggle herself. You

189
00:11:06,000 --> 00:11:09,760
Speaker 4: see that stress reliever. But the great thing about it

190
00:11:09,800 --> 00:11:13,040
Speaker 4: is that time next year they had that sign. They

191
00:11:13,080 --> 00:11:15,920
Speaker 4: had that sign. I can't help to believe that laughter

192
00:11:16,040 --> 00:11:19,880
Speaker 4: is a medicine. Laughter lightens the load. Listen, Let there

193
00:11:19,920 --> 00:11:23,800
Speaker 4: be laughter, Let there be fun. Nothing is that serious

194
00:11:24,320 --> 00:11:29,040
Speaker 4: that we can't create this atmosphere I've laughter. See, we

195
00:11:29,120 --> 00:11:31,520
Speaker 4: have to set our families up to win. And I

196
00:11:31,559 --> 00:11:35,240
Speaker 4: believe when we take the necessary steps to build connections.

197
00:11:35,440 --> 00:11:39,480
Speaker 4: We're placing value on our family. And when our family

198
00:11:39,520 --> 00:11:43,440
Speaker 4: feels valued, when they feel loved, when you spend quality time,

199
00:11:43,720 --> 00:11:46,160
Speaker 4: you know what it does. It feels respect, it feels

200
00:11:46,280 --> 00:11:50,440
Speaker 4: character within the family. And again, when you face those challenges,

201
00:11:50,760 --> 00:11:53,680
Speaker 4: you've got bridges to one another's heart. You've got each other.

202
00:11:53,960 --> 00:11:57,440
Speaker 4: You're linked. See, we all love to have the people

203
00:11:57,480 --> 00:12:00,320
Speaker 4: in our life give us time and attention, to be

204
00:12:00,360 --> 00:12:03,880
Speaker 4: taken care of. It just warms our heart. So we

205
00:12:03,960 --> 00:12:07,080
Speaker 4: have to remember, if it's good for us, it's good

206
00:12:07,120 --> 00:12:11,280
Speaker 4: for them. Listen, let's create unity in our home. The

207
00:12:11,320 --> 00:12:14,880
Speaker 4: Bible says where there is unity, there's a commanded blessing.

208
00:12:15,679 --> 00:12:18,560
Speaker 4: Every one of your family members can walk in blessing.

209
00:12:20,120 --> 00:12:23,760
Speaker 4: You've got the power and ability to be the one

210
00:12:24,000 --> 00:12:27,200
Speaker 4: who brings in the fun, who is the spice of life.

211
00:12:27,880 --> 00:12:31,640
Speaker 4: Nothing is that serious. Create laughter and know that where

212
00:12:31,679 --> 00:12:35,680
Speaker 4: there is community, God has commanded the blessing. I want

213
00:12:35,679 --> 00:12:38,080
Speaker 4: to pray for your family right now. Lift your hand

214
00:12:38,160 --> 00:12:41,080
Speaker 4: right now, if you represent family, if you have a family,

215
00:12:41,080 --> 00:12:43,400
Speaker 4: if you want God to intervene in your family, because see,

216
00:12:43,440 --> 00:12:45,760
Speaker 4: I think He sees your hands and you may not

217
00:12:45,880 --> 00:12:48,400
Speaker 4: be connected to some of those family members you may

218
00:12:48,400 --> 00:12:50,880
Speaker 4: be saying, God, I want this connection. Can I have

219
00:12:50,960 --> 00:12:52,960
Speaker 4: it that? Well? Can I tell you one of the

220
00:12:52,960 --> 00:12:55,440
Speaker 4: greatest ways you can be connected and is in prayer.

221
00:12:55,559 --> 00:12:58,440
Speaker 4: You see, there's no distance in prayer. You may not

222
00:12:58,640 --> 00:13:01,240
Speaker 4: be able to be in the presence of that person

223
00:13:01,240 --> 00:13:03,480
Speaker 4: that you want that connection with, But can I tell

224
00:13:03,520 --> 00:13:06,840
Speaker 4: you this, God's in their presence. And if you're praying

225
00:13:06,880 --> 00:13:09,760
Speaker 4: to God, God will do the work. Because see, if

226
00:13:09,760 --> 00:13:12,600
Speaker 4: we pray and we don't give up, God will honor

227
00:13:12,640 --> 00:13:16,600
Speaker 4: our prayer. God works by faith, He works by perseverance.

228
00:13:17,000 --> 00:13:19,960
Speaker 4: So no, when you pray, the moment you pray, the

229
00:13:20,040 --> 00:13:22,360
Speaker 4: tide of the battle is beginning to turn. God is

230
00:13:22,440 --> 00:13:25,600
Speaker 4: on your side. He wants that unity in your home.

231
00:13:26,160 --> 00:13:28,200
Speaker 4: I believe all we have to have is a willing heart,

232
00:13:28,559 --> 00:13:30,960
Speaker 4: and when we're willing and obedient, we'll eat the good

233
00:13:30,960 --> 00:13:33,400
Speaker 4: of the land. Amen. Father, I thank you for every

234
00:13:33,480 --> 00:13:37,280
Speaker 4: family represented here today, all those who are listening are viewing. Father.

235
00:13:37,400 --> 00:13:40,600
Speaker 4: I thank you that we are committing our family afresh

236
00:13:40,679 --> 00:13:42,839
Speaker 4: and new to you God. I thank you that we

237
00:13:42,920 --> 00:13:46,600
Speaker 4: will build bridges and not walls. I thank you Father

238
00:13:46,720 --> 00:13:51,040
Speaker 4: that we will make a sacrifice to spend quality time

239
00:13:51,080 --> 00:13:53,880
Speaker 4: with our family, and Lord, you will give us ideas

240
00:13:53,960 --> 00:13:56,920
Speaker 4: and resources in the time. Father, I thank you that

241
00:13:56,960 --> 00:13:58,960
Speaker 4: we're gonna look at our calendar and we're gonna say,

242
00:13:59,000 --> 00:14:02,160
Speaker 4: is that really? And we're going to put our family

243
00:14:02,200 --> 00:14:05,840
Speaker 4: on the calendar. God, I thank you that you will, Father,

244
00:14:06,000 --> 00:14:09,400
Speaker 4: draw our families together. That there is anything that hasn't

245
00:14:09,440 --> 00:14:12,400
Speaker 4: been done or anything that's been in the past. Father,

246
00:14:12,480 --> 00:14:15,319
Speaker 4: I thank you that you are covering those past mistakes.

247
00:14:15,640 --> 00:14:18,000
Speaker 4: That you are covering that, and Father, we are moving

248
00:14:18,040 --> 00:14:21,200
Speaker 4: forward with you. We're not walking in guilt or condemnation.

249
00:14:21,520 --> 00:14:23,640
Speaker 4: But Father, we know with you, every day is a

250
00:14:23,680 --> 00:14:26,560
Speaker 4: new beginning, that your mercies are fresh and new. And

251
00:14:26,600 --> 00:14:29,320
Speaker 4: I thank you that you are blowing the mercy of

252
00:14:29,360 --> 00:14:32,760
Speaker 4: your favor on our families right now. Father, I thank

253
00:14:32,800 --> 00:14:35,440
Speaker 4: you that we will love our families. We won't try

254
00:14:35,480 --> 00:14:38,760
Speaker 4: to shape them into people that look like us, but Father,

255
00:14:38,840 --> 00:14:41,640
Speaker 4: we will enjoy who they are as individuals. We will

256
00:14:41,720 --> 00:14:44,440
Speaker 4: learn from them and grow from them. Father, I thank

257
00:14:44,440 --> 00:14:47,280
Speaker 4: you that when we're tempted, Father, to say the wrong thing,

258
00:14:47,320 --> 00:14:49,960
Speaker 4: that you'll just zip up our lips and allow us

259
00:14:50,000 --> 00:14:53,640
Speaker 4: Father to just breathe, to just take time to know

260
00:14:53,680 --> 00:14:57,160
Speaker 4: there's always time for correction. There's always time to get
