245. Motherhood Series, Part 1
The player is loading ...
We explore motherhood as God's tangible love on earth, diving into biblical examples from Eve to Sarah to understand the divine purpose behind being a life-giver. Through personal stories and spiritual insights, we unpack how motherhood reflects God's character while acknowledging there's no perfect way to mother.
• Motherhood defines women's unique ability to partner with God in creating life
• The name Eve means "life-giver," showing God's intentional design for women
• Sarah's story demonstrates God's faithfulness even in seemingly impossible situations
• Motherhood extends beyond biological connections to include various forms of nurturing
• Prayer becomes the foundation of motherhood, whether by choice or necessity
• God remains faithful to mothers despite their imperfections and doubts

00:00:00.840 --> 00:00:03.164
Welcome to the Call by God podcast.
00:00:03.164 --> 00:00:11.135
I am the co-host, adni Godin, and today we are having an amazing discussion on motherhood.
00:00:11.135 --> 00:00:21.734
It will be myself, lakeisha Logan, which y'all know her as Lakeisha Hicks, because the last time she was on here and we recorded she was Lakeisha Hicks.
00:00:21.734 --> 00:00:29.315
And then we have Sister Kimberly Hernandez, who is no stranger to the Called by God podcast.
00:00:29.315 --> 00:00:30.725
Good afternoon, my sisters.
00:00:30.725 --> 00:00:31.687
How are y'all doing?
00:00:32.161 --> 00:00:36.051
Oh we are, I'm excited, I'm excited, I'm wonderful.
00:00:36.359 --> 00:00:38.947
Yes, same here, definitely blessed and kept.
00:00:38.947 --> 00:00:41.031
It's a pleasure being here.
00:00:42.179 --> 00:00:43.442
Amen, amen, amen.
00:00:43.442 --> 00:00:47.911
All right, so we're about to have a discussion on motherhood.
00:00:47.911 --> 00:00:58.670
I went online, right, I'm going to give you all the Webster's Dictionary version, but I want each of you to share what your definition of motherhood is after I'm done with reading it.
00:00:58.670 --> 00:01:02.601
So Webster says motherhood is the state of being a mother.
00:01:02.601 --> 00:01:06.385
A person enters into motherhood when they become a mother.
00:01:06.385 --> 00:01:16.134
This most commonly happens when their child is born, but it can also happen through adoption, or by marrying or becoming a partner to someone with children.
00:01:16.134 --> 00:01:22.498
Motherhood is a gender specific version of the term parenthood.
00:01:22.498 --> 00:01:23.760
Who wants to go first of the term parenthood?
00:01:26.864 --> 00:01:28.706
Who wants to go first?
00:01:28.706 --> 00:01:34.055
When I just heard the part about the gender-specific, I'm like, oh, we about to open up a can of worms.
00:01:34.055 --> 00:02:14.294
Oh, father gosh, I'll go first If you don't mind sis, if you don't mind sis, if you don't mind sis, if you don't mind sis, if you don't mind what motherhood means to me, and I'll share that because you know, walking through the walk of being at 17 and having an abortion, I understand now biblically why God gave woman life gift life, as our sister Elizabeth Stewart has always taught us, is understanding that we bring birth to something that is amazing for God to repeatedly continue for his glory.
00:02:14.294 --> 00:02:23.847
So understanding how to cherish this part of being a woman and to watch your child grow, even to beyond adulthood, is amazing.
00:02:23.847 --> 00:02:26.473
The walk is amazing and the gift is amazing.
00:02:26.473 --> 00:02:27.602
So I understand it.
00:02:27.602 --> 00:02:39.319
And then just even studying from biblical times of understanding why women cherish of being honored to be a mother, so I can't wait to dive into this conversation and go further.
00:02:39.379 --> 00:02:57.016
That was awesome, sis, to me to define motherhood, and I just said this not long ago to someone that of course, we know that we come in contact with the love of God through every single breath we breathe, every move we make.
00:02:57.016 --> 00:03:00.242
We cannot do anything without God.
00:03:00.242 --> 00:03:30.508
God, I feel like motherhood encompasses the love, the person, spiritual, the being of God on earth, and that's why I told someone I said the closest thing that we have tangible love from God comes through a mother, because there is nobody, I don't care how much someone loves you or cherishes you, nobody is going to love you like your mother.
00:03:30.508 --> 00:03:32.520
Now, there are some deviations to that.
00:03:32.520 --> 00:03:34.506
Okay, so we're going to keep it real.
00:03:34.506 --> 00:03:36.370
There are some, you know.
00:03:36.370 --> 00:03:44.305
It's almost kind of like it says and I'm not saying that this is the context many are called, but few are chosen, just like Lakeisha.
00:03:44.324 --> 00:03:47.665
You know you spoke about abortion and sometimes some women give up that right.
00:03:47.665 --> 00:03:51.824
I don't want to go too far in because I know we're just defining motherhood.
00:03:51.824 --> 00:04:00.806
Um, god has predestined women and I'm glad you said gender specific, because there are some that has crossed over.
00:04:00.806 --> 00:04:04.872
And just because you call yourself, that does not mean that's what you are.
00:04:04.872 --> 00:04:07.123
I can say I'm a duck, but I am not a duck.
00:04:07.123 --> 00:04:14.581
Okay, I'm a woman, I'm a human being, so I'll digress, but that's what motherhood is to me.
00:04:14.581 --> 00:04:22.269
Motherhood is that display of God's tangible spirit and love on earth and simple.
00:04:22.668 --> 00:04:31.336
I love that you said that, sis, because sometimes we look for love in every single place, right?
00:04:31.336 --> 00:04:35.487
And your mama is looking at you like baby.
00:04:35.487 --> 00:04:46.673
If you would just listen to me, if you would just hear what I'm saying to you, right, it's your mother's voice that you hear, but it's God ministering through her to you.
00:04:46.673 --> 00:04:53.178
Sometimes our ears are so clogged with the world that we can't even hear him speak to us.
00:04:53.178 --> 00:04:59.372
Because you said, mothers are the most tangible, closest thing to God that we have here on earth.
00:04:59.372 --> 00:05:02.324
That's powerful Motherhood to me.
00:05:02.845 --> 00:05:05.951
Many know my story Three abortions.
00:05:05.951 --> 00:05:08.422
My first child was born at the age of 14.
00:05:08.422 --> 00:05:12.129
I didn't want to be nobody's mama at no dang age of 14, let's be honest.
00:05:12.129 --> 00:05:20.514
But once I saw her, I knew that there was a shift that needed to take place.
00:05:20.514 --> 00:05:22.559
Did I understand that shift?
00:05:22.559 --> 00:05:31.069
Absolutely not, because I will always say this and many people don't believe it our brains don't develop until we turn 25.
00:05:31.069 --> 00:05:39.249
So a 14-year-old little girl having a whole baby does not make her a grown woman, right?
00:05:39.249 --> 00:05:52.627
So when I think about motherhood, it's the fight that we have for our children, the way we try and support them in the best way that we can and I agree with both women.
00:05:52.769 --> 00:05:56.583
Right, motherhood is of God, like you said.
00:05:56.583 --> 00:06:00.307
Elizabeth said it best Woman comes from life to give life.
00:06:00.307 --> 00:06:06.572
Eve came from Adam living being and God used her to carry Cain and Abel.
00:06:06.572 --> 00:06:11.526
Since I said that, let's go ahead and define Eve.
00:06:11.526 --> 00:06:15.521
Right, it says Eve, and this is from the Strong's definition.
00:06:15.521 --> 00:06:36.649
It says life or living, the first woman, wife of Adam, shava or chava, and in the hebrew, positively from hebrews, two, two, three, three, one life giver, the first woman.
00:06:36.649 --> 00:06:37.110
She's our mother.
00:06:56.682 --> 00:06:59.524
These are mother Adam, eve, cain, abel, seth, right, and then the line continues.
00:06:59.524 --> 00:07:01.266
And here we have us human beings.
00:07:01.266 --> 00:07:10.920
And it's not to compare because, yes, we know, you know there's, there's, like we say, protocol, right, and they are in the facet of business, in the business arena.
00:07:10.920 --> 00:07:17.723
And so, yes, we know that we have God and then we have, you know, the husband or man, and then the woman.
00:07:17.723 --> 00:07:37.822
But it just struck me because when you look at Eve and I know we make jokes and say, oh God, that woman, okay, because she was the one that caused the fall, right, but what just blew my mind listening to you was that God is in Christ, is the Alpha and the Omega.
00:07:39.204 --> 00:07:48.776
Eve is the representation that God chose woman to participate in the Alpha, even though she was the cause of the fall of man.
00:07:48.776 --> 00:07:58.055
I think that God's relationship with Eve is amazing because she is representative of the Alpha.
00:07:58.055 --> 00:08:01.601
God has allowed her to be the alpha where she gives life.
00:08:01.601 --> 00:08:07.124
And, just like you said, yes, she came from man and she came from a life, but he can't give life.
00:08:07.124 --> 00:08:41.274
And so I think that that is amazing, even as women and even as we look at Mother Eve, to wrap our minds around the fact and, like I said, it makes me see God in his love for a woman, on his forgiveness for a woman, even though she created the fall, but then his use for a woman and, like I said, eve is to me representative of a part of God, in a sense that she's alpha, because she's where life begins, as a mother that's delicious, right.
00:08:41.655 --> 00:08:43.421
Many people will be like, oh, that's blasphemy.
00:08:43.421 --> 00:08:44.352
But think about it.
00:08:44.352 --> 00:08:45.275
Think about it.
00:08:45.275 --> 00:08:46.802
Life began with her.
00:08:46.802 --> 00:08:50.413
Without her womb, no babies would have been born, right?
00:08:50.413 --> 00:08:54.581
So I'm going to say something so controversial before we continue.
00:08:54.581 --> 00:09:02.102
A couple of years ago, there were women who were being kidnapped and killed and their wombs were being taken to be implanted in men.
00:09:02.102 --> 00:09:06.594
Those men couldn't sustain that womb.
00:09:06.594 --> 00:09:12.164
Their bodies could not, because you have a certain chromosome.
00:09:12.164 --> 00:09:14.414
A woman has a certain chromosome.
00:09:14.414 --> 00:09:17.822
You can't cross-contaminate that, right.
00:09:17.822 --> 00:09:24.361
So when you try and cross-contaminate, it ain't going to work.
00:09:24.361 --> 00:09:27.528
So they stopped.
00:09:27.548 --> 00:09:29.373
I'm going to say this I love men.
00:09:29.373 --> 00:09:30.075
I do.
00:09:30.075 --> 00:09:32.419
Please don't take me as a man basher.
00:09:32.419 --> 00:09:39.255
I know this is a series on motherhood, but this is in my spirit to say God was so strategic in creating man.
00:09:39.255 --> 00:09:51.134
God was so strategic in creating man, who you are, the power, the dominion that he has given you.
00:09:51.134 --> 00:10:08.817
The fact that you have given that up is a testament to the fact that you don't even understand the love of God, to the point where you want to become like me, who bleeds every month as cramps, like it ain't nobody's business, okay.
00:10:08.817 --> 00:10:15.200
And then, when I hit a certain age, I'm going through perimenopause and figuring out why my body changing.
00:10:15.200 --> 00:10:16.549
Why would you want to do that?
00:10:16.549 --> 00:10:19.335
Well, here's the clue you can't even go through that.
00:10:19.335 --> 00:10:26.424
You can't even experience the full transition of what a woman goes through.
00:10:26.424 --> 00:10:31.652
The change of life for us is absolutely different than yours, so why?
00:10:31.652 --> 00:10:38.804
Why would you want to release the identity that God has given you to try and take on mine?
00:10:38.804 --> 00:10:42.980
I digress, but, keisha, what did you have to say on Mother Eve?
00:10:44.933 --> 00:10:47.561
OK, you have said a whole lot, a whole lot with a whole lot.
00:10:47.561 --> 00:11:12.830
But to go back, I want to say that I commend you because what you said was profound, just acknowledging the fact of who we stand for in our work as a woman and how we are to be more Christ-like, christ-driven, because he made us specifically for this purpose.
00:11:12.830 --> 00:11:25.296
And even in the downfall with Eve the sin that was the first sin he still gave her a beautiful and I'm just going to say this, it's a beautiful punishment, because it could have been worse.
00:11:25.296 --> 00:11:45.325
So I'm grateful for that, because he still gave us the pain of child labor, but he gave us the joy of the child, and that temporary, that temporary pain is nothing compared to seeing that life come forth and holding that child and looking at this.
00:11:45.325 --> 00:12:02.860
And you have to modify, you change your whole world, because you have now birthed something that is really your arms versus what was in your womb, and you're having thoughts, you're trying to figure out what this child will look like, the creativity You're thinking about, you even start planning the future and everything like that.
00:12:02.860 --> 00:12:10.898
But when that child comes into your hands or in place in your arms or into your bosom, all of those things go out the door.
00:12:10.898 --> 00:12:25.635
Everything you worried about, everything you were scared of, what you were nervous, even the joy that you're planning down the road, because you change the trajectory when you actually find out what the child is, what's going on, how beautiful this new life is.
00:12:25.976 --> 00:12:31.894
So I I definitely want to piggyback on what's going to be said, because that's what made me think about.
00:12:31.894 --> 00:12:43.158
Is that that that permanent, the permanent pain only lasts for so long because it's going to be permanent, because it's the fact that we're going to, we sustain it, we remember it every time that birthday come around.
00:12:43.158 --> 00:12:47.418
You're remembering that wound like oh, you carried me nine months.
00:12:47.418 --> 00:12:49.197
Well, my body changed because of this.
00:12:49.197 --> 00:12:55.971
So I say permanent in the mindset, but it was temporary pain for nine months for Leslie and for some.
00:12:55.971 --> 00:13:01.322
And to be able to hold that bundle of joy that is now you know that creation.
00:13:01.322 --> 00:13:03.658
And how close do we get to Jesus?
00:13:03.658 --> 00:13:04.431
As women?
00:13:04.431 --> 00:13:09.201
Do we give life Because he made life, god made life we come to.
00:13:09.201 --> 00:13:12.777
The next best thing is being able to create life too now.
00:13:12.777 --> 00:13:14.701
So I think that's just marvelous.
00:13:14.830 --> 00:13:16.596
Amen, amen, hallelujah.
00:13:16.596 --> 00:13:20.190
So now we're going to talk about Mother Sarah, right?
00:13:20.190 --> 00:13:21.691
So now we're going to talk about Mother Sarah, right?
00:13:21.691 --> 00:13:23.572
Her name means noble woman.
00:13:23.572 --> 00:13:26.355
She was the wife of Abraham and mother of Isaac.
00:13:26.355 --> 00:13:31.538
When her name was changed, it says princess, noble woman, noble lady.
00:13:32.220 --> 00:13:33.520
Why did I choose Sarah?
00:13:33.520 --> 00:13:38.205
Because after Sarah, after Eve, comes Sarah, right.
00:13:38.205 --> 00:13:41.726
Why did Sarah have to come next?
00:13:41.726 --> 00:13:54.691
Because God had a plan.
00:13:54.691 --> 00:13:55.793
God had a perfect, amazing plan.
00:13:55.793 --> 00:13:56.293
Here it is.
00:13:56.293 --> 00:13:57.196
This is a woman who's how old was Sarah?
00:13:57.196 --> 00:13:58.018
Abraham was 75.
00:13:58.018 --> 00:13:58.799
He's 10 years older than her.
00:13:58.799 --> 00:13:59.301
So she was what, right?
00:13:59.301 --> 00:14:05.073
But God said I have a plan and in that plan you're going to have a unique child because you're going to be.
00:14:05.073 --> 00:14:09.874
No, I'm sorry, he wasn't 10 years older than her because she was 99 and he was a hundred.
00:14:09.874 --> 00:14:11.778
So yeah, he was.
00:14:11.778 --> 00:14:13.364
She was 74.
00:14:13.364 --> 00:14:18.532
Forgive me y'all, she was 74 when God made the promise to Abraham.
00:14:18.532 --> 00:14:24.158
And then, at 99, god opens her womb and gives her a son.
00:14:24.158 --> 00:14:27.648
Now we all know, once the body goes through the changes, ain't nothing coming out.
00:14:27.648 --> 00:14:30.660
Ain't nothing, I don't care who trying to.
00:14:30.660 --> 00:14:35.895
Ain't nothing coming about, right, she already went through the changes.
00:14:35.895 --> 00:14:38.721
Ain't no eggs available.
00:14:38.721 --> 00:14:41.606
There's nothing right but God.
00:14:41.606 --> 00:14:51.424
God, in his perfect, omniscient, omnipresent plan, brought a baby forth between Abraham and Sarah.
00:14:52.475 --> 00:14:57.623
When I hear about Sarah's story, I'll just tell you this First of all, I'll be like Lord, please, not me.
00:14:57.623 --> 00:14:59.581
That'll be the first thing I think about.
00:14:59.581 --> 00:15:01.240
I'm sorry I do.
00:15:01.240 --> 00:15:05.754
I'll be like Lord, please, please, because I know he's still working on this.
00:15:05.754 --> 00:15:09.865
I'm just like Father, god, lord, please, not me.
00:15:09.865 --> 00:15:12.474
But I never know what his plans are.
00:15:13.056 --> 00:15:26.152
But I think it's amazing because I look at the fact of what she had, what she put on the line and watching all those around her during that time frame, because motherhood was cherished.
00:15:26.152 --> 00:15:31.605
Motherhood meant that you, you walked a certain way as a woman.
00:15:31.605 --> 00:15:38.658
It's a certain classification and so if you think about being at that age, being birthed, you know, first of all you take it as a joke.
00:15:38.658 --> 00:15:49.466
I believe she did chuckle, so she was like and not in a way of disgrace, it was just like, hey, I can't, you know, I can't even fathom that thought, because that would be me.
00:15:49.466 --> 00:15:54.302
I can't even fathom that thought of thinking I'm going to chuckle like guy got jokes.
00:15:54.302 --> 00:16:01.835
I know he got jokes, but to still think of her, even at that age, is amazing.
00:16:02.296 --> 00:16:14.606
To still give her glory at that age is amazing, because the simple fact of the matter is that she, she was, um, like I said, a frowned upon because of that classification.
00:16:14.606 --> 00:16:16.436
Those are the things I take away from that.
00:16:16.436 --> 00:16:37.440
He still gave her her crown as the princess, like you said, as the value of knowing that she's woman and that she can still have the remaining years of her life to still watch grow, to still be a part, being known that she is whole, because back then, I mean, I have been a mother, you were not considered whole, but that's what I get out of that.
00:16:37.875 --> 00:16:45.499
Since that was so powerful, and I'm happy that you mentioned and you tie it back into her name.
00:16:45.519 --> 00:16:48.000
I'm happy that you mentioned and you tied back into her name.
00:16:48.020 --> 00:16:52.205
And one thing that we know in the biblical times God help us now.
00:16:52.205 --> 00:17:43.616
But in the biblical times children were named by maybe location, place, circumstance, so for her to carry the name as a noble woman, but then what's happening in her life and what her life mirrors does not equate to nobility and so, but then, just like you said, when I think about Sarah, I think about the faithfulness of God, because so often, as a single mother, as a divorcee which is speaking of myself and others, and I skipped over it in the beginning, but I'm going to touch on it now because when we speak about motherhood, I know Anthony said, you know you may have been married in, but then there are some women that are mothers that have not birthed children.
00:17:43.616 --> 00:18:06.019
It's not by adoption, but they are motherly, and so whatever that call is that God has placed on you to be a mother, then that's who you are when I think of Sarah and, like you all said, her nobility, her name and knowing how God basically brought honor to her.
00:18:06.260 --> 00:18:16.468
Because in her time, you know, you see your brother-in-law, his wife, producing all these kids and you right here just looking pretty because they say she was fine.
00:18:16.468 --> 00:18:22.202
Like when you read the Bible, they say Sarah was fine, it was gorgeous, right?
00:18:22.202 --> 00:18:23.385
Why you ain't got no kids.
00:18:23.385 --> 00:18:26.602
I like to bring it to modern day.
00:18:26.602 --> 00:18:29.210
When people look at you like what's wrong with you, girl, why you ain't married, why you ain't got no kids, I like to bring it to modern day.
00:18:29.210 --> 00:18:31.361
When people look at you like what's wrong with you, girl, why you ain't married, why you ain't got no kids.
00:18:31.361 --> 00:18:33.623
Maybe it's not God's plan yet for me.
00:18:33.914 --> 00:18:37.987
I mean, sarah had to wait how many years before she had a son, right?
00:18:37.987 --> 00:18:45.955
So when I think of her and I sometimes think of her graciousness, that's what I see it's like.
00:18:45.955 --> 00:18:47.482
Did she get impatient?
00:18:47.482 --> 00:18:49.976
Yes, think of her graciousness.
00:18:49.976 --> 00:18:50.718
That's what I see it's like.
00:18:50.718 --> 00:18:51.239
Did she get impatient?
00:18:51.239 --> 00:18:51.960
Yes, but she was still gracious.
00:18:51.960 --> 00:19:01.269
She was still gracious in the sense of it may not have happened for me now, but I'm still going to operate and I'm still going to follow my husband.
00:19:01.269 --> 00:19:07.547
When Abraham told her baby we leaving, she ain't questioning him, she packed up and she left.
00:19:07.547 --> 00:19:12.703
To me that is so honorable to know that.
00:19:12.703 --> 00:19:26.569
Oh, I have to follow this man and in following this man, I think God really saw her heart and understood that she knows, she understands and I'm going to bless her.
00:19:26.569 --> 00:19:28.141
That's just Adney's version.
00:19:28.515 --> 00:19:52.323
Also and I know that you mentioned initially the transitioning from Eve to Sarah, and I always I think that God just makes sure that we, as his children, we always see his grace and, like you said, she was gracious and Keisha said, you know, as mothers, you know the way we walk, the way we carry ourselves.
00:19:52.323 --> 00:20:09.595
Motherhood is a noble, very noble and humbling set of shoes and steps to take, to take.
00:20:09.595 --> 00:20:24.580
Sometimes I think that we really don't encompass yes, you know, thank you for Mother's Day, but what a woman gives of herself to walk in those steps and, like you said, etni, to desire that and not have it and have to relinquish to say I'm just going to wait on God.
00:20:24.580 --> 00:20:25.501
And I have a shirt.
00:20:25.501 --> 00:20:32.869
I have a shirt that I just wore the other day and it says, um, have faith, trust, pray.
00:20:32.869 --> 00:20:37.902
And then on the sleeves it says pray, and, and the biggest theme of it is is prayer.
00:20:39.203 --> 00:20:50.809
And I don't think any woman, mother, motherly, um, god, mother, grandmother, whatever, if you know anything else, you know to pray.
00:20:50.809 --> 00:21:06.938
And so when I think of Sarah, I think of, just like you said, being in those seasons of life and wanting something from God and knowing that you've lived a life conducive of God's blessings, but the blessings it has not come.
00:21:06.938 --> 00:21:25.788
And so when I look at Sarah, I look at, I see us sometimes even as mothers, and we want our children and I'm going a little bit ahead, but we want things of God and motherhood and God don't always show up the way we want him to, and especially not when we want him to.
00:21:25.788 --> 00:21:34.826
But I think that we learn from Sarah, and even transitioning from Eve to Sarah, that we're going to fall.
00:21:34.906 --> 00:21:46.805
There's no perfection in motherhood and I think that sometimes, you know, we may be expected to be perfect, to do everything right, but there is no perfection in motherhood.
00:21:46.805 --> 00:22:00.165
But yet, and still, even through our imperfections in Eve, imperfections in doubt in Sarah, here comes God's faithfulness, and it was not even predicated on her, but she was a benefactor of that blessing.
00:22:00.165 --> 00:22:13.023
Yes, he included her in the blessing within time, but God had already set forth and spoke a word that through Abraham there would be many nations, and so I think that it's a beautiful thing.
00:22:13.023 --> 00:22:14.647
Do we like one?
00:22:14.647 --> 00:22:18.746
You know, my Bible study teacher said do we just slide into heaven on greasy grace?
00:22:18.746 --> 00:22:32.345
No, but it's a beautiful thing to know that we can be imperfect women of God and mothers of God and still trust God's love and his faithfulness to still come through and to make good on his promises.
00:22:32.954 --> 00:22:47.855
But what Kimmy said was the part of the empathy about being perfect, because there are certain standards in the world that they hold us at what is considered fit and unfit, but God is the only judge, but God is the only judge.
00:22:47.855 --> 00:22:49.240
God is the only judge.
00:22:49.240 --> 00:22:58.269
And that's the beautiful part the expectations of what the world sees versus what we are to become, because it is a process.
00:22:58.269 --> 00:23:01.505
It never came with any type of instruction.
00:23:01.505 --> 00:23:08.556
We never got instruction of being a parent, of being a mother, and the beautiful part is, like you said, being a mother.
00:23:08.737 --> 00:23:25.038
You're going to always be on your knees one way or another, whether you choose to, or whether he humbles you, you're going to always be on your knees, praying for the situation, praying for the child, praying for the protection and making sure that you're staying in alignment with him.
00:23:25.038 --> 00:23:37.446
And even for those in the world that don't know God, they know to call out to someone to help them in that time of need, even if they just say oh Lord, but they're not realizing.
00:23:37.446 --> 00:23:39.692
You're calling and he hears you.
00:23:39.692 --> 00:23:41.164
He hears you.
00:23:41.164 --> 00:23:48.262
So I thank you, kimmy, for saying that, because that's the thing about it that we don't even realize, even when we say, oh Lord, my back.
00:00:00.840 --> 00:00:03.164
00:00:03.164 --> 00:00:11.135
00:00:11.135 --> 00:00:21.734
00:00:21.734 --> 00:00:29.315
00:00:29.315 --> 00:00:30.725
00:00:30.725 --> 00:00:31.687
00:00:32.161 --> 00:00:36.051
00:00:36.359 --> 00:00:38.947
00:00:38.947 --> 00:00:41.031
00:00:42.179 --> 00:00:43.442
00:00:43.442 --> 00:00:47.911
00:00:47.911 --> 00:00:58.670
00:00:58.670 --> 00:01:02.601
00:01:02.601 --> 00:01:06.385
00:01:06.385 --> 00:01:16.134
