- 0:22Speaker 1: Let me ask a question.
- 0:24Speaker 2: Asked you the question, Yes, sir, Yes, sir, yes, sir.
- 0:27Speaker 2: I just want to know how far did you drip
- 0:29Speaker 2: away from God and came back? How far did you
- 0:32Speaker 2: really go? How's gone? Dug ho's going back?
- 0:36Speaker 1: Blunder?
- 0:38Speaker 2: We so close, so close saying yet so far? I
- 0:47Speaker 2: was going, I was going. I was going. Wasn't praying
- 0:51Speaker 2: on a daily basis, was waking up making my own decisions.
- 0:56Speaker 2: I had three telephones, but I was just I'll just
- 0:59Speaker 2: wake up and just start nonsense. I would open my
- 1:04Speaker 2: morning with nonsense, man, I would, I would just I was.
- 1:08Speaker 2: I was in a bad place man, because I had
- 1:11Speaker 2: made a decision. I just made a decision. I don't
- 1:15Speaker 2: know if it was even a one day. I just said,
- 1:18Speaker 2: you know what, I ain't gonna talk to God about
- 1:20Speaker 2: nothing else. I didn't do that. I just over a
- 1:24Speaker 2: period of time became more and more about me, more
- 1:29Speaker 2: and more self, more and more doing what I wanted
- 1:32Speaker 2: to do. More. I was waking up living more and
- 1:34Speaker 2: more without constraints. And that was a dark period of
- 1:38Speaker 2: my life, man. And I look back on it and
- 1:41Speaker 2: I go, man, how did God ever ever let you
- 1:47Speaker 2: back from that? Because that was crazy. Man. That's when
- 1:51Speaker 2: I understood fully that God was really really a forgiving God,
- 1:55Speaker 2: that God really loves you so much that he will
- 1:58Speaker 2: he will find a way, He will find a way
- 2:02Speaker 2: to forgive you. I mean, I can't say find a
- 2:05Speaker 2: way God will forgive you. Ain't no find a way.
- 2:09Speaker 2: That's that's how he operates. He's a forgiving God, man,
- 2:15Speaker 2: because for have given me for that period I was
- 2:21Speaker 2: in and then to bring me completely back and let
- 2:25Speaker 2: me get up and build me back up. Man. But
- 2:30Speaker 2: one thing it taught me. Taught me a couple of things.
- 2:34Speaker 2: Number One, you are nothing without God. That was the
- 2:39Speaker 2: biggest lesson I learned. Number Two, the other lesson I
- 2:45Speaker 2: learned was you don't need to ever try that again.
- 2:50Speaker 2: And I think the third biggest lesson I probably learned
- 2:54Speaker 2: was as you look back on the results of the
- 2:58Speaker 2: decision you made not to confide, confer or have relationship
- 3:03Speaker 2: with God. If you look at the results, it was
- 3:08Speaker 2: just it's heartbreaking, heartbreaking the number of years I wasted,
- 3:15Speaker 2: But it was all for a lesson learned, so I
- 3:18Speaker 2: didn't even I learned to quit looking at them als
- 3:20Speaker 2: as losses. And I wish everybody else could understand that,
- 3:25Speaker 2: stop looking at every al you take in life as
- 3:28Speaker 2: a loss, because that's not always the case. Sometimes and
- 3:36Speaker 2: oftentimes and all the time. And when I really look
- 3:39Speaker 2: back on it, all them als I took wasn't losses.
- 3:42Speaker 2: Then with lessons, I started valuing the losses and understanding
- 3:48Speaker 2: that the losses them als you take and are really lessons.
- 3:53Speaker 2: You can deal with it better because everybody has them.
- 3:57Speaker 2: I'm taking an AL right now. I'm taking a hard
- 4:01Speaker 2: AL right now. But guess what, I know what it is.
- 4:06Speaker 2: I know exactly what it is. I'm in the middle
- 4:10Speaker 2: of a lesson, and it's amazing at my age, how
- 4:13Speaker 2: I'm still having to learn these lessons. You don't ever
- 4:17Speaker 2: stop learning. If you keep living, You're gonna always learn.
- 4:20Speaker 2: And I'm learning something new about God right now. And
- 4:24Speaker 2: he needed me to understand this, to elevate me to
- 4:29Speaker 2: the next level. Now where that level is, I have
- 4:32Speaker 2: no idea. I really don't know what he's up to
- 4:35Speaker 2: right now. But I'm show trusting. I'm show trusting. That's
- 4:41Speaker 2: all I got. And that's exactly where he wanted me
- 4:44Speaker 2: to be at this point in my life. He put
- 4:46Speaker 2: me in a position, man, where it was just me
- 4:48Speaker 2: and him. It's just really me and him right now. Oh.
- 4:52Speaker 2: I have a family, I have a wife, I got
- 4:54Speaker 2: somebody I can confide in, pray with God, all that.
- 4:57Speaker 2: But God needed to pull me to the side and go, hey, man, okay,
- 5:01Speaker 2: now listen, well, I'm about to take you. I need
- 5:04Speaker 2: you to understand how important it is to stay in
- 5:06Speaker 2: tune with me. So he has my undivided attention right now,
- 5:12Speaker 2: and so wherever he finna elevate me too, I ain't
- 5:15Speaker 2: gonna tell you where it is cause I don't even know.
- 5:19Speaker 2: You know, I ain't like I'm holding back y'all all,
- 5:21Speaker 2: see nothing. I ain't. I don't have that for you. Really,
- 5:24Speaker 2: I'm being honest with you. I really really don't. And
- 5:28Speaker 2: a pastor sent me a text out of nowhere. He said, Man,
- 5:32Speaker 2: you know I ain't. I ain't see nothing on Instagram
- 5:35Speaker 2: or nothing. I just I was driving and God put
- 5:38Speaker 2: your face in front of me. So I'm sending you
- 5:40Speaker 2: this text. And he sent me a great text. Man.
- 5:43Speaker 2: That was just what I needed at that moment, because
- 5:46Speaker 2: I had just asked God, God, just just give me
- 5:49Speaker 2: a sign that it's gonna be alright, and it wasn't.
- 5:52Speaker 2: An hour later that text came through and it was
- 5:55Speaker 2: just the thing I needed. So yeah, man, I'm in
- 5:59Speaker 2: the middle of an al right now. And it ain't
- 6:02Speaker 2: a loss either, just another valuable lesson that I needed.
- 6:06Speaker 2: So yeah, I learned all of that from being far
- 6:09Speaker 2: away from God. I won't let that happen again. Matter
- 6:12Speaker 2: of fact, I'm snuggling up real close right now, real close.
- 6:17Speaker 2: Those are my closing remarks today. All thanks to Junior
