  I know guard your heart with all diligence, for out of it spring
• 4:00
  the issues of life. Proverbs, 4/23.
• 4:12
  Connor, Mom, you scared me. I have been calling you for the
• 4:17
  last five minutes to clean the garage.
• 4:20
  Now hurry up and do it and take off those earbuds so I don't
• 4:25
  have to come look for you all day.
• 4:27
  I'd much rather call you and have you come look for me.
• 4:30
  Yes, ma'am. And just where do you think
• 4:34
  you're going? Who are you?
• 4:37
  It's me, the devil. I mean, I'm your flesh, kid.
• 4:42
  Call me flesh. I don't like being told what to
• 4:45
  do. Don't let your mother push you
• 4:48
  around. Hold it right there.
• 4:51
  Who are you? I'm your heart now.
• 4:54
  How much longer are you going to listen to the devil?
• 4:56
  You mean flesh? But out heart, I had him first.
• 5:00
  Oh yeah? Well, he's made Jesus the Lord
• 5:03
  of his life. That's never stopped me for very
• 5:05
  long. Even Christians make mistakes.
• 5:09
  I just happened to be the one to help them make those mistakes.
• 5:13
  Well, if you think I'm just going to sit back and watch you
• 5:15
  ruin Connor's life, you're dead wrong.
• 5:18
  I'm not dead yet, buddy. I am not your buddy.
• 5:22
  Hey, would somebody tell me what's going on here?
• 5:25
  Flesh here is trying to get you to sin by disobeying your mom.
• 5:29
  The Bible says to obey your parents and the Lord for this is
• 5:32
  right. Ephesians 6/1.
• 5:34
  We don't care what the Bible says, do we Connor?
• 5:37
  We only care about about us and what we want, and right now we
• 5:42
  want to listen to our music. He's right.
• 5:45
  Heart. I really want to listen to my
• 5:47
  music. Besides, I don't want to clean
• 5:50
  the garage. You heard him heart.
• 5:53
  Now scram. I know when I'm not wanted.
• 5:57
  Wow, flesh, you're strong. Connor, flesh is only strong
• 6:01
  because you keep doing what he wants you to do.
• 6:05
  If you would just listen to me, your heart, the way you listen
• 6:08
  to your flesh, I'd be throwing flesh out right now.
• 6:11
  With your permission of course. My permission.
• 6:14
  Yeah, I can't make you obey God's Word, and flesh can't make
• 6:17
  you disobey. It's your choice.
• 6:20
  The more time you spend meditating on God's Word, the
• 6:22
  easier it is to obey. Come on, Connor.
• 6:25
  Hey heart, you can't leave. I'm not leaving, I'm just going
• 6:29
  to go rest up for the next time you have to make a decision like
• 6:32
  this. Maybe then you'll obey God.
• 6:35
  Don't listen to him, he's full of hot air.
• 6:38
  But I don't want to disobey God. I want to please God.
• 6:43
  Now where did you get an idea like that?
• 6:46
  Tell him, Connor, tell him what you've been learning from the
• 6:48
  Bible. What?
• 6:49
  To be carnally minded is death, but to be spiritually minded is
• 6:54
  life and peace. Romans 8/6.
• 6:58
  He learned that in church, even you should know that you're
• 7:02
  always in church telling him not to raise his hands or worship
• 7:06
  God. It's you telling me that
• 7:08
  everyone will laugh at me if I sing.
• 7:12
  Yeah. I care about you, kid, I don't
• 7:14
  want you to get hurt. Is that right?
• 7:17
  What about the spanking he'll get from his dad for not
• 7:19
  cleaning the garage? And that's right, I better obey
• 7:24
  my mom. Hey, you can't leave me standing
• 7:27
  here like this. He's right, heart.
• 7:29
  We can't leave him standing like this.
• 7:32
  Do you mind? Be my guest.
• 7:34
  For to be carnally minded is death, but to be spiritually
• 7:38
  minded is life and peace. Romans 86 I want peace so get
• 7:45
  out of here in Jesus name. I'm going.
• 7:48
  I'm going. All right, Evie, here we go.
• 7:59
  Off to school. Who's your heart, Evie?
• 8:02
  You are. Oh yeah, got heart.
• 8:05
  Let your heart therefore be loyal to the Lord our God.
• 8:09
  First Kings 861. That's my girl.
• 8:16
  How ya doing Evie? Uh oh.
• 8:19
  Hi, Jackson. Remember Evie, I'm right here
• 8:24
  is. That a cigarette.
• 8:26
  Here, take a puff. Tell him no.
• 8:29
  No, thank you, A. Little too polite for Jackson,
• 8:32
  but you said no. Come on Evie, take a puff for
• 8:36
  me. Don't do it, Evie.
• 8:39
  We're friends, aren't we? No one's looking.
• 8:43
  OK, just one puff. I guess I should have warned
• 8:48
  you. You have to get used to it
• 8:50
  first. I got to go see you around.
• 8:54
  What happened to let your heart therefore be loyal to the Lord
• 8:57
  our God? First Kings 861 God wants his
• 9:03
  children to be loyal, faithful to Him and His Word.
• 9:06
  But that's OK, You did good. You're still my girl.
• 9:10
  Who's your heart, Evie? Evie, hang with me Now.
• 9:13
  You need to tell God you're sorry for giving into
• 9:16
  temptation, Evie. All right, Evie, here we go
• 9:25
  again. Another day at school.
• 9:27
  Who's your heart, Evie? You are.
• 9:29
  Oh yeah, got heart. Let your heart therefore be
• 9:33
  loyal to the Lord our God. First Kings 861.
• 9:37
  That's my girl, Evie. Well, hey, Evie.
• 9:43
  Hi, Jackson. You look thirsty.
• 9:46
  You want to drink of my beer? You.
• 9:48
  Can do it Evie tell him no. No, I'm not thirsty.
• 9:53
  I just had a glass of milk before I got here.
• 9:57
  That's kind of like a no. A little week, but still a no.
• 10:01
  Aw, come on, do it for me. Well, OK for you, I will.
• 10:10
  I should have warned you that sometimes the first step is
• 10:13
  disgusting. You have to acquire a taste for
• 10:16
  it. Are you going to be OK?
• 10:19
  All right, I got to go. Now do you see what happens when
• 10:22
  you listen to the wrong voice? God wants His children to be
• 10:26
  loyal, faithful to Him and His Word.
• 10:30
  Evie. Be right back.
• 10:31
  You're going to go throw up. All right, Evie, let's have a
• 10:39
  talk. Who's your heart, Evie?
• 10:42
  You are. Let me hear you now, got heart?
• 10:46
  Let your heart therefore be loyal to the Lord our God.
• 10:49
  First Kings 861. You're my girl, Evie.
• 10:53
  Now when Jackson starts sweet talking you, trying to get you
• 10:57
  to do all those bad things, you've got to tell him no.
• 11:01
  I don't care how cute he is, not a little no or a maybe no.
• 11:06
  They'll come in the eyes and tell him no, you got it.
• 11:10
  I got it. OK, God wants his children to be
• 11:14
  loyal, faithful to Him and His Word.
• 11:17
  God still loves you. There's nothing to worry about.
• 11:20
  He's on your side, He lives in you.
• 11:23
  I'm your heart. Hey, Evie.
• 11:28
  Hi Jackson, what are you doing with that magazine?
• 11:33
  Those have bad pictures in them. I know you want to look.
• 11:37
  Look him in the eyes, Evie. Tell him no.
• 11:39
  You know, Jackson, if you ever want to give your heart to
• 11:42
  Jesus, come talk to me. Otherwise, there's nothing that
• 11:46
  you have that I want. Nothing.
• 11:49
  I wasn't expecting that. Oh yeah, she did it.
• 11:54
  She's got heart. Let your heart therefore be
• 11:57
  loyal to the Lord our God. First Kings 861.
• 12:02
