>> Feeling anxious
all day every day,
00:00:08.708 --> 00:00:11.911 align:center line:63% position:50% size:60%
I thought something must
be wrong with my faith.
00:00:11.978 --> 00:00:14.114 align:start line:63% position:25% size:50%
Maybe I'm not
trusting God enough.
00:00:14.180 --> 00:00:16.449 align:start line:63% position:20% size:60%
Maybe there is sin there
that I don't know about.
00:00:16.516 --> 00:00:19.119 align:start line:63% position:20% size:58%
So, I went on this hunt
to try to figure out
00:00:19.185 --> 00:00:21.855 align:center line:63% position:50% size:40%
what is going on
with me?
00:00:21.921 --> 00:00:23.923 align:start line:63% position:30% size:38%
The Lord really
met me right
00:00:23.990 --> 00:00:26.693 align:center line:63% position:50% size:58%
in the midst of
my battle with anxiety.
00:00:26.760 --> 00:00:30.063 align:start line:10% position:20% size:58%
Blair Linne found peace
not by avoiding fear,
00:00:30.130 --> 00:00:32.799 align:center line:10% position:50% size:43%
but by trembling
in awe before God
00:00:32.866 --> 00:00:36.403 align:center line:10% position:50% size:55%
because we were
Made to Tremble. Next!

RANDY: Welcome to Life Today!
00:00:55.622 --> 00:00:56.756 align:start line:63% position:10% size:45%
I'm Randy Robison.
00:00:56.823 --> 00:00:57.924 align:start line:63% position:10% size:43%
Tammy is with me.
00:00:57.991 --> 00:00:59.225 align:start line:63% position:10% size:33%
TAMMY: Hello!
00:00:59.292 --> 00:01:00.393 align:start line:63% position:10% size:58%
RANDY: I'm very excited
00:01:00.460 --> 00:01:01.461 align:start line:63% position:10% size:50%
about today's guest.
00:01:01.528 --> 00:01:02.729 align:start line:63% position:10% size:28%
TAMMY: Why?
00:01:02.796 --> 00:01:04.030 align:start line:63% position:10% size:45%
RANDY: I like her.
00:01:04.097 --> 00:01:05.298 align:start line:85% position:10% size:45%
TAMMY: I love her!
00:01:05.365 --> 00:01:06.599 align:start line:85% position:10% size:70%
I understand you're excited.
00:01:06.666 --> 00:01:07.834 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50%
I actually love her.
00:01:07.901 --> 00:01:09.269 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
I saw you interview her
00:01:09.335 --> 00:01:10.970 align:start line:85% position:10% size:73%
and I thought, yes, yes, yes!
00:01:11.037 --> 00:01:12.105 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
We have to have her
00:01:12.172 --> 00:01:13.106 align:start line:85% position:10% size:30%
on the show.
00:01:13.173 --> 00:01:14.174 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68%
RANDY: Yeah. She's actually
00:01:14.240 --> 00:01:15.175 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65%
been on the broadcast show
00:01:15.241 --> 00:01:16.309 align:start line:85% position:10% size:18%
before.
00:01:16.376 --> 00:01:17.477 align:start line:85% position:10% size:73%
But she's back with us today.
00:01:17.544 --> 00:01:18.678 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
She has a new book.
00:01:18.745 --> 00:01:20.346 align:start line:85% position:10% size:70%
It's called Made to Tremble,
00:01:20.413 --> 00:01:21.514 align:start line:85% position:10% size:73%
and we're going to talk about
00:01:21.581 --> 00:01:23.616 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
anxiety, and really maybe
00:01:23.683 --> 00:01:25.151 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
reframe it, I think for
00:01:25.218 --> 00:01:26.453 align:start line:85% position:10% size:40%
you guys because
00:01:26.519 --> 00:01:27.754 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50%
we all deal with it.
00:01:27.821 --> 00:01:28.822 align:start line:85% position:10% size:73%
But the author is Blair Linne
00:01:28.888 --> 00:01:29.889 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
and she is with us.
00:01:29.956 --> 00:01:31.057 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65%
Blair, so good to see you.
00:01:31.124 --> 00:01:32.258 align:start line:85% position:10% size:70%
BLAIR: It's good to be seen,
00:01:32.325 --> 00:01:33.426 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60%
and it's good to be here
00:01:33.493 --> 00:01:34.527 align:start line:85% position:10% size:35%
with you guys.
00:01:34.594 --> 00:01:35.628 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60%
RANDY: Welcome to Texas.
00:01:35.695 --> 00:01:36.729 align:start line:85% position:10% size:45%
You live here now.
00:01:36.796 --> 00:01:37.897 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
BLAIR: I live here now.
00:01:37.964 --> 00:01:39.199 align:start line:85% position:10% size:45%
Thank you so much.
00:01:39.265 --> 00:01:40.366 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
RANDY: The state just got
00:01:40.433 --> 00:01:43.903 align:start line:85% position:10% size:40%
a little better.
00:01:43.970 --> 00:01:45.171 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50%
But okay, let's jump
00:01:45.238 --> 00:01:46.973 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
into this topic because
00:01:47.040 --> 00:01:49.609 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
this is a big deal.
00:01:49.676 --> 00:01:52.345 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
I think part of our issue
00:01:52.412 --> 00:01:54.380 align:start line:85% position:10% size:73%
as Christians is when we look
00:01:54.447 --> 00:01:55.582 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50%
at the Bible saying,
00:01:55.648 --> 00:01:56.716 align:start line:85% position:10% size:45%
do not be anxious,
00:01:56.783 --> 00:01:58.084 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
be anxious for nothing,
00:01:58.151 --> 00:01:59.519 align:start line:85% position:10% size:73%
depending on the translation.
00:01:59.586 --> 00:02:00.553 align:start line:85% position:10% size:23%
We think,
00:02:00.620 --> 00:02:01.754 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
oh, but I am anxious.
00:02:01.821 --> 00:02:03.423 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55%
Therefore, I'm failing
00:02:03.490 --> 00:02:05.091 align:start line:85% position:10% size:20%
somehow.
00:02:05.158 --> 00:02:07.260 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
I don't necessarily think
00:02:07.327 --> 00:02:08.761 align:start line:85% position:10% size:70%
that's the case, but tell me
00:02:08.828 --> 00:02:10.530 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
about your relationship
00:02:10.597 --> 00:02:12.398 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65%
a little bit with anxiety.
00:02:12.465 --> 00:02:13.600 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60%
BLAIR: So, I never would
00:02:13.666 --> 00:02:14.601 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55%
have considered myself
00:02:14.667 --> 00:02:16.202 align:start line:63% position:10% size:60%
to be an anxious person.
00:02:16.269 --> 00:02:17.403 align:start line:63% position:10% size:50%
That was not the way
00:02:17.470 --> 00:02:18.838 align:start line:63% position:10% size:70%
I would have defined myself.
00:02:18.905 --> 00:02:20.240 align:start line:63% position:10% size:65%
But actually what happened
00:02:20.306 --> 00:02:23.042 align:start line:63% position:10% size:75%
was in 2015, our young family,
00:02:23.109 --> 00:02:24.310 align:start line:63% position:10% size:63%
we moved to Philadelphia.
00:02:24.377 --> 00:02:25.378 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50%
My husband was going
00:02:25.445 --> 00:02:26.613 align:start line:85% position:10% size:45%
to plant a church.
00:02:26.679 --> 00:02:27.747 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
We have three kids,
00:02:27.814 --> 00:02:29.048 align:start line:85% position:10% size:40%
three and under.
00:02:29.115 --> 00:02:30.183 align:start line:85% position:10% size:38%
My youngest was
00:02:30.250 --> 00:02:31.384 align:start line:85% position:10% size:38%
four weeks old,
00:02:31.451 --> 00:02:32.585 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
so I couldn't even help
00:02:32.652 --> 00:02:33.853 align:start line:85% position:10% size:35%
with the move.
00:02:33.920 --> 00:02:35.154 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50%
A couple months into
00:02:35.221 --> 00:02:36.289 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60%
living there, we decided
00:02:36.356 --> 00:02:37.490 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
we're going to take
00:02:37.557 --> 00:02:38.625 align:start line:85% position:10% size:70%
a trip across the country to
00:02:38.691 --> 00:02:40.126 align:start line:85% position:10% size:70%
visit my family in Michigan.
00:02:40.193 --> 00:02:42.195 align:start line:85% position:10% size:73%
I'm behind the wheel driving,
00:02:42.262 --> 00:02:44.364 align:start line:85% position:10% size:70%
and before I knew it, a deer
00:02:44.430 --> 00:02:47.901 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
came and totaled our car.
00:02:47.967 --> 00:02:49.135 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
We were, initially,
00:02:49.202 --> 00:02:50.270 align:start line:85% position:10% size:75%
just so thankful that everyone
00:02:50.336 --> 00:02:52.672 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50%
was physically well,
00:02:52.739 --> 00:02:53.973 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55%
but little did I know,
00:02:54.040 --> 00:02:55.208 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
it spiraled me into
00:02:55.275 --> 00:02:56.609 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50%
a season of anxiety,
00:02:56.676 --> 00:02:58.611 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
of intense panic attacks.
00:02:58.678 --> 00:02:59.746 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
I'll tell you kind of
00:02:59.812 --> 00:03:00.947 align:start line:85% position:10% size:38%
how it started.
00:03:01.014 --> 00:03:02.248 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68%
I was driving shortly after
00:03:02.315 --> 00:03:04.817 align:start line:85% position:10% size:70%
the accident, late at night,
00:03:04.884 --> 00:03:05.952 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65%
and all of a sudden I felt
00:03:06.019 --> 00:03:07.687 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60%
like I couldn't swallow,
00:03:07.754 --> 00:03:08.988 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
and I couldn't take
00:03:09.055 --> 00:03:10.390 align:start line:85% position:10% size:35%
a deep breath.
00:03:10.456 --> 00:03:11.658 align:start line:85% position:10% size:70%
So I rolled down the window.
00:03:11.724 --> 00:03:12.859 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
I tried to get some
00:03:12.926 --> 00:03:14.060 align:start line:85% position:10% size:73%
fresh air, and then it's like
00:03:14.127 --> 00:03:15.194 align:start line:85% position:10% size:38%
I just couldn't
00:03:15.261 --> 00:03:16.362 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50%
breathe in normally.
00:03:16.429 --> 00:03:17.630 align:start line:85% position:10% size:38%
So then I said,
00:03:17.697 --> 00:03:18.932 align:start line:85% position:10% size:43%
what's happening?
00:03:18.998 --> 00:03:20.133 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55%
My heart starts racing
00:03:20.199 --> 00:03:21.367 align:start line:85% position:10% size:33%
and pounding.
00:03:21.434 --> 00:03:22.569 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
I called my husband
00:03:22.635 --> 00:03:23.703 align:start line:85% position:10% size:70%
and I just told him, I think
00:03:23.770 --> 00:03:24.871 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
it's a medical emergency.
00:03:24.938 --> 00:03:26.005 align:start line:85% position:10% size:45%
Something's wrong.
00:03:26.072 --> 00:03:27.040 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
I just said, I need to go
00:03:27.106 --> 00:03:28.207 align:start line:85% position:10% size:28%
to the E.R.
00:03:28.274 --> 00:03:29.309 align:start line:85% position:10% size:73%
I don't know what's going on.
00:03:29.375 --> 00:03:30.410 align:start line:85% position:10% size:70%
I went to the E.R., they did
00:03:30.476 --> 00:03:31.511 align:start line:85% position:10% size:73%
all the tests, and they said,
00:03:31.578 --> 00:03:32.612 align:start line:85% position:10% size:30%
You're fine!
00:03:32.679 --> 00:03:33.813 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
Everything looks great.
00:03:33.880 --> 00:03:35.214 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65%
But no one explained to me
00:03:35.281 --> 00:03:36.282 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
what was going on; that
00:03:36.349 --> 00:03:38.051 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
I had had a panic attack.
00:03:38.117 --> 00:03:39.385 align:start line:85% position:10% size:43%
So I had no idea.
00:03:39.452 --> 00:03:42.155 align:start line:63% position:10% size:63%
That's how I met anxiety.
00:03:42.221 --> 00:03:43.556 align:start line:63% position:10% size:63%
And again, I didn't think
00:03:43.623 --> 00:03:44.791 align:start line:63% position:10% size:53%
that Christians would
00:03:44.857 --> 00:03:45.992 align:start line:63% position:10% size:45%
deal with anxiety.
00:03:46.059 --> 00:03:47.260 align:start line:63% position:10% size:55%
So when I began to get
00:03:47.327 --> 00:03:48.361 align:start line:63% position:10% size:63%
spiraled into this season
00:03:48.428 --> 00:03:50.129 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
of panic attacks, feeling
00:03:50.196 --> 00:03:51.631 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68%
anxious all day, every day,
00:03:51.698 --> 00:03:52.999 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60%
I thought something must
00:03:53.066 --> 00:03:54.934 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
be wrong with my faith.
00:03:55.001 --> 00:03:55.935 align:start line:85% position:10% size:33%
Maybe I'm not
00:03:56.002 --> 00:03:57.136 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50%
trusting God enough.
00:03:57.203 --> 00:03:58.371 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
Maybe there's sin there
00:03:58.438 --> 00:03:59.872 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60%
that I don't know about.
00:03:59.939 --> 00:04:01.341 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55%
So I went on this hunt
00:04:01.407 --> 00:04:02.508 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50%
to try to figure out
00:04:02.575 --> 00:04:04.811 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
what is going on with me.
00:04:04.877 --> 00:04:06.112 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55%
The Lord really met me
00:04:06.179 --> 00:04:07.213 align:start line:85% position:10% size:45%
right in the midst
00:04:07.280 --> 00:04:09.515 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65%
of my battle with anxiety.
00:04:09.582 --> 00:04:10.750 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65%
TAMMY: How did he meet you
00:04:10.817 --> 00:04:11.784 align:start line:85% position:10% size:15%
there?
00:04:11.851 --> 00:04:12.785 align:start line:85% position:10% size:73%
Because I think there's a lot
00:04:12.852 --> 00:04:14.988 align:start line:85% position:10% size:73%
of people that totally relate
00:04:15.054 --> 00:04:16.055 align:start line:85% position:10% size:35%
to your story.
00:04:16.122 --> 00:04:17.123 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68%
I think it's so interesting
00:04:17.190 --> 00:04:18.424 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
when you say, He met me
00:04:18.491 --> 00:04:19.759 align:start line:85% position:10% size:70%
there, and that's when I was
00:04:19.826 --> 00:04:21.894 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68%
also introduced to anxiety,
00:04:21.961 --> 00:04:23.329 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
which I find fascinating,
00:04:23.396 --> 00:04:24.464 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60%
that you never struggled
00:04:24.530 --> 00:04:25.765 align:start line:85% position:10% size:45%
with it until that
00:04:25.832 --> 00:04:27.100 align:start line:63% position:10% size:68%
triggered something in you,
00:04:27.166 --> 00:04:28.267 align:start line:63% position:10% size:43%
and now it's just
00:04:28.334 --> 00:04:29.636 align:start line:63% position:10% size:43%
chasing you down.
00:04:29.702 --> 00:04:30.737 align:start line:63% position:10% size:50%
I think people think
00:04:30.803 --> 00:04:31.804 align:start line:63% position:10% size:40%
like I got here,
00:04:31.871 --> 00:04:32.972 align:start line:63% position:10% size:63%
I don't know how, but now
00:04:33.039 --> 00:04:33.973 align:start line:63% position:10% size:55%
I've identified it and
00:04:34.040 --> 00:04:34.974 align:start line:63% position:10% size:58%
I don't know how to get
00:04:35.041 --> 00:04:37.110 align:start line:85% position:10% size:70%
onto the other side of this.
00:04:37.176 --> 00:04:38.244 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
So how did you do that?
00:04:38.311 --> 00:04:39.545 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50%
How did he meet you?
00:04:39.612 --> 00:04:40.613 align:start line:85% position:10% size:70%
BLAIR: Yeah, and I can't say
00:04:40.680 --> 00:04:41.681 align:start line:85% position:10% size:40%
that I felt like
00:04:41.748 --> 00:04:42.882 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55%
I was met immediately.
00:04:42.949 --> 00:04:44.017 align:start line:85% position:10% size:33%
Like this was
00:04:44.083 --> 00:04:45.184 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55%
a step-by-step moment.
00:04:45.251 --> 00:04:46.319 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
I mean, I literally had
00:04:46.386 --> 00:04:47.520 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
to learn to drive again
00:04:47.587 --> 00:04:48.688 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65%
because I was so terrified
00:04:48.755 --> 00:04:49.956 align:start line:85% position:10% size:43%
that another deer
00:04:50.023 --> 00:04:51.057 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
would come so I could
00:04:51.124 --> 00:04:52.158 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68%
only drive for ten minutes,
00:04:52.225 --> 00:04:53.626 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55%
then 30, then an hour,
00:04:53.693 --> 00:04:54.794 align:start line:85% position:10% size:30%
and no more.
00:04:54.861 --> 00:04:56.429 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50%
So it was a process.
00:04:56.496 --> 00:04:57.764 align:start line:85% position:10% size:43%
But it really was
00:04:57.830 --> 00:04:59.599 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60%
a few years in that one,
00:04:59.666 --> 00:05:01.467 align:start line:85% position:10% size:45%
I was able to see.
00:05:01.534 --> 00:05:02.735 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60%
I think it's so helpful.
00:05:02.802 --> 00:05:04.937 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
So there's a Puritan.
00:05:05.004 --> 00:05:06.072 align:start line:85% position:10% size:43%
This guy was born
00:05:06.139 --> 00:05:07.540 align:start line:85% position:10% size:33%
in the 1600s.
00:05:07.607 --> 00:05:10.243 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68%
So older guy, older friend,
00:05:10.309 --> 00:05:11.444 align:start line:85% position:10% size:45%
and he gives these
00:05:11.511 --> 00:05:12.545 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65%
three categories for fear,
00:05:12.612 --> 00:05:13.646 align:start line:85% position:10% size:33%
which I found
00:05:13.713 --> 00:05:14.714 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
to be very helpful.
00:05:14.781 --> 00:05:15.815 align:start line:85% position:10% size:43%
So he talks about
00:05:15.882 --> 00:05:17.083 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65%
natural fear, sinful fear,
00:05:17.150 --> 00:05:18.618 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
and religious fear.
00:05:18.685 --> 00:05:20.353 align:start line:85% position:10% size:73%
So being able to pass through
00:05:20.420 --> 00:05:21.454 align:start line:85% position:10% size:43%
the natural fear;
00:05:21.521 --> 00:05:22.522 align:start line:85% position:10% size:45%
that first of all,
00:05:22.588 --> 00:05:25.091 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68%
to feel fear, it's natural.
00:05:25.158 --> 00:05:27.427 align:start line:85% position:10% size:38%
We all feel it.
00:05:27.493 --> 00:05:28.661 align:start line:85% position:10% size:70%
They're actually good things
00:05:28.728 --> 00:05:30.063 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55%
in it because it helps
00:05:30.129 --> 00:05:31.597 align:start line:85% position:10% size:35%
keep us alive.
00:05:31.664 --> 00:05:32.732 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
So, if a bear is coming
00:05:32.799 --> 00:05:34.367 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55%
towards us and we feel
00:05:34.434 --> 00:05:37.003 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
that fight or flight,
00:05:37.070 --> 00:05:38.137 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
like that's a good thing,
00:05:38.204 --> 00:05:39.739 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
it's a natural thing.
00:05:39.806 --> 00:05:40.807 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
The challenge is when
00:05:40.873 --> 00:05:42.241 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
there's no bear. Right?
00:05:42.308 --> 00:05:43.409 align:start line:85% position:10% size:40%
So then, because
00:05:43.476 --> 00:05:44.644 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68%
we're in this fallen world,
00:05:44.711 --> 00:05:46.446 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
we're in a fallen body,
00:05:46.512 --> 00:05:47.580 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50%
and now we're afraid
00:05:47.647 --> 00:05:49.549 align:start line:85% position:10% size:75%
of something that's not there,
00:05:49.615 --> 00:05:51.584 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60%
and it can begin to move
00:05:51.651 --> 00:05:53.519 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55%
into this sinful fear.
00:05:53.586 --> 00:05:55.722 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
So trusting God to pass
00:05:55.788 --> 00:05:57.156 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50%
through, where am I?
00:05:57.223 --> 00:05:58.558 align:start line:63% position:10% size:43%
What is going on?
00:05:58.624 --> 00:05:59.559 align:start line:63% position:10% size:58%
Are these physiological
00:05:59.625 --> 00:06:01.094 align:start line:63% position:10% size:65%
symptoms I'm dealing with?
00:06:01.160 --> 00:06:02.695 align:start line:63% position:10% size:70%
Is this me not trusting you,
00:06:02.762 --> 00:06:03.930 align:start line:63% position:10% size:65%
and I'm dwelling on things
00:06:03.996 --> 00:06:05.531 align:start line:63% position:10% size:53%
I shouldn't dwell on?
00:06:05.598 --> 00:06:07.467 align:start line:63% position:10% size:45%
So what I realized
00:06:07.533 --> 00:06:09.435 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55%
was that with anxiety,
00:06:09.502 --> 00:06:11.904 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
it exposes your weakness,
00:06:11.971 --> 00:06:13.072 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50%
and that is actually
00:06:13.139 --> 00:06:14.273 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
the best place to be.
00:06:14.340 --> 00:06:16.109 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60%
Because with sinful fear
00:06:16.175 --> 00:06:17.243 align:start line:85% position:10% size:28%
or anxiety,
00:06:17.310 --> 00:06:18.578 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60%
you really want control.
00:06:18.644 --> 00:06:19.779 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60%
You have these concerns,
00:06:19.846 --> 00:06:21.180 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
you have these cares, and
00:06:21.247 --> 00:06:22.281 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60%
you're trying to control
00:06:22.348 --> 00:06:23.583 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65%
your circumstances because
00:06:23.649 --> 00:06:25.918 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68%
you don't feel safe relying
00:06:25.985 --> 00:06:27.754 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68%
on yourself, and the things
00:06:27.820 --> 00:06:29.188 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
that come to your mind.
00:06:29.255 --> 00:06:30.456 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55%
And so in that moment,
00:06:30.523 --> 00:06:31.624 align:start line:85% position:10% size:73%
what I was able to see, well,
00:06:31.691 --> 00:06:32.759 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50%
if I'm weak, really,
00:06:32.825 --> 00:06:34.327 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
and my weakness is on
00:06:34.393 --> 00:06:36.062 align:start line:85% position:10% size:70%
full display because I can't
00:06:36.129 --> 00:06:37.597 align:start line:85% position:10% size:45%
fix these problems
00:06:37.663 --> 00:06:39.031 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68%
or these cares that I have,
00:06:39.098 --> 00:06:40.166 align:start line:85% position:10% size:25%
isn't that
00:06:40.233 --> 00:06:41.334 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
the best place to be?
00:06:41.400 --> 00:06:42.435 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
It's going to thrust me
00:06:42.502 --> 00:06:43.770 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60%
into the arms of the one
00:06:43.836 --> 00:06:45.638 align:start line:85% position:10% size:43%
who's not afraid,
00:06:45.705 --> 00:06:47.073 align:start line:85% position:10% size:40%
who is not weak,
00:06:47.140 --> 00:06:48.574 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
who is always strong,
00:06:48.641 --> 00:06:49.776 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50%
and actually able to
00:06:49.842 --> 00:06:51.511 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68%
do something about my fears
00:06:51.577 --> 00:06:52.845 align:start line:85% position:10% size:40%
and my concerns.
00:06:52.912 --> 00:06:54.113 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
That's where I really met
00:06:54.180 --> 00:06:55.615 align:start line:85% position:10% size:23%
the Lord.
00:06:55.681 --> 00:06:58.050 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60%
I think I was like, Job.
00:06:58.117 --> 00:06:59.051 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
He says, "My ears had
00:06:59.118 --> 00:07:00.486 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
heard of you, but now
00:07:00.553 --> 00:07:01.654 align:start line:85% position:10% size:43%
my eyes see you."
00:07:01.721 --> 00:07:02.855 align:start line:85% position:10% size:40%
That was towards
00:07:02.922 --> 00:07:04.090 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
the end of his story.
00:07:04.157 --> 00:07:05.158 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55%
That weakness and that
00:07:05.224 --> 00:07:06.225 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
humanity that I think
00:07:06.292 --> 00:07:07.393 align:start line:85% position:10% size:43%
our circumstances
00:07:07.460 --> 00:07:09.128 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
often expose in us,
00:07:09.195 --> 00:07:10.630 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60%
set us up to rightly see
00:07:10.696 --> 00:07:12.865 align:start line:85% position:10% size:70%
God's divinity and his glory
00:07:12.932 --> 00:07:15.067 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
and his awesome power
00:07:15.134 --> 00:07:16.302 align:start line:85% position:10% size:45%
right in the thick
00:07:16.369 --> 00:07:18.070 align:start line:85% position:10% size:43%
of our suffering.
00:07:18.137 --> 00:07:19.205 align:start line:63% position:10% size:55%
RANDY: I want to float
00:07:19.272 --> 00:07:20.506 align:start line:63% position:10% size:40%
something by you
00:07:20.573 --> 00:07:23.009 align:start line:63% position:10% size:60%
and get your take on it.
00:07:23.075 --> 00:07:24.544 align:start line:63% position:10% size:50%
When we look at fear
00:07:24.610 --> 00:07:26.579 align:start line:63% position:10% size:73%
and anxiety, which is sort of
00:07:26.646 --> 00:07:29.282 align:start line:63% position:10% size:73%
the anticipation of something
00:07:29.348 --> 00:07:30.716 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
that's not actually
00:07:30.783 --> 00:07:33.319 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65%
taking place, and we think
00:07:33.386 --> 00:07:34.821 align:start line:85% position:10% size:43%
of them as sinful
00:07:34.887 --> 00:07:35.955 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
because we're told,
00:07:36.022 --> 00:07:37.356 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55%
don't fear, be anxious
00:07:37.423 --> 00:07:39.425 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
for nothing, again.
00:07:39.492 --> 00:07:42.862 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60%
Is that in and of itself
00:07:42.929 --> 00:07:44.597 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
a sin or is that just
00:07:44.664 --> 00:07:47.300 align:start line:85% position:10% size:38%
a part of life?
00:07:47.366 --> 00:07:50.837 align:start line:85% position:10% size:73%
And is sort of the sin taking
00:07:50.903 --> 00:07:53.806 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65%
that into the wrong place,
00:07:53.873 --> 00:07:55.341 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60%
as opposed to the proper
00:07:55.408 --> 00:07:57.076 align:start line:85% position:10% size:75%
response to a very real thing,
00:07:57.143 --> 00:07:58.211 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
which is to take it
00:07:58.277 --> 00:07:59.946 align:start line:85% position:10% size:23%
to Jesus?
00:08:00.012 --> 00:08:01.214 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
So I'm bringing this up
00:08:01.280 --> 00:08:02.481 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60%
because I think it would
00:08:02.548 --> 00:08:05.484 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
be helpful if we position
00:08:05.551 --> 00:08:08.187 align:start line:85% position:10% size:70%
fear and anxiety, instead of
00:08:08.254 --> 00:08:11.624 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55%
as a sin in themselves
00:08:11.691 --> 00:08:14.460 align:start line:85% position:10% size:43%
as an invitation.
00:08:14.527 --> 00:08:15.494 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
Does that resonate?
00:08:15.561 --> 00:08:16.696 align:start line:85% position:10% size:45%
BLAIR: Absolutely.
00:08:16.762 --> 00:08:17.864 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
That is what the book
00:08:17.930 --> 00:08:19.465 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
is about because, yeah,
00:08:19.532 --> 00:08:20.666 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
I was always on this hunt
00:08:20.733 --> 00:08:21.934 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65%
for sin because I only had
00:08:22.001 --> 00:08:23.135 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50%
those two categories
00:08:23.202 --> 00:08:24.303 align:start line:85% position:10% size:35%
of sinful fear
00:08:24.370 --> 00:08:25.872 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
and religious fear.
00:08:25.938 --> 00:08:27.373 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
So the thought was, well,
00:08:27.440 --> 00:08:28.474 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55%
if you're dealing with
00:08:28.541 --> 00:08:29.575 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60%
sinful fear, then you're
00:08:29.642 --> 00:08:31.644 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
not trusting God somehow.
00:08:31.711 --> 00:08:32.645 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
But when we look in
00:08:32.712 --> 00:08:34.180 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55%
the Scripture, I mean,
00:08:34.247 --> 00:08:35.548 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55%
all of the patriarchs,
00:08:35.615 --> 00:08:36.649 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
I mean, it's hard to find
00:08:36.716 --> 00:08:38.150 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68%
somebody who wasn't afraid.
00:08:38.217 --> 00:08:39.485 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60%
Do you know what I mean?
00:08:39.552 --> 00:08:40.720 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55%
We know what it's like
00:08:40.786 --> 00:08:42.221 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
to feel fear sometimes.
00:08:42.288 --> 00:08:44.624 align:start line:85% position:10% size:73%
It is a part of our humanity.
00:08:44.690 --> 00:08:46.425 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65%
Absolutely, I love the way
00:08:46.492 --> 00:08:48.227 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60%
that you put it, because
00:08:48.294 --> 00:08:49.395 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
what are we going to do
00:08:49.462 --> 00:08:51.030 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50%
when we do feel that
00:08:51.097 --> 00:08:52.365 align:start line:85% position:10% size:40%
feeling of fear?
00:08:52.431 --> 00:08:53.766 align:start line:85% position:10% size:70%
Because, it's the most often
00:08:53.833 --> 00:08:55.201 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
command in the Scripture,
00:08:55.268 --> 00:08:56.535 align:start line:85% position:10% size:23%
fear not.
00:08:56.602 --> 00:08:57.737 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65%
But often we don't take it
00:08:57.803 --> 00:08:58.971 align:start line:85% position:10% size:38%
in its context.
00:08:59.038 --> 00:09:00.606 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
Why do we not fear?
00:09:00.673 --> 00:09:02.074 align:start line:85% position:10% size:45%
For I am with you.
00:09:02.141 --> 00:09:03.175 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55%
I will strengthen you.
00:09:03.242 --> 00:09:04.343 align:start line:85% position:10% size:40%
I will help you.
00:09:04.410 --> 00:09:05.645 align:start line:85% position:10% size:43%
Even the passage,
00:09:05.711 --> 00:09:06.879 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
"Be anxious for nothing,"
00:09:06.946 --> 00:09:08.347 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55%
we kind of stop there.
00:09:08.414 --> 00:09:09.615 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55%
We forget the context,
00:09:09.682 --> 00:09:10.716 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
"But in everything,
00:09:10.783 --> 00:09:12.718 align:start line:85% position:10% size:75%
with prayer and supplication."
00:09:12.785 --> 00:09:14.020 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50%
So he's teaching us,
00:09:14.086 --> 00:09:15.154 align:start line:85% position:10% size:45%
Paul's teaching us
00:09:15.221 --> 00:09:16.389 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68%
how do you cast your cares?
00:09:16.455 --> 00:09:18.658 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65%
Okay, you can pray to God,
00:09:18.724 --> 00:09:19.792 align:start line:85% position:10% size:43%
with supplication
00:09:19.859 --> 00:09:21.127 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55%
and thanksgiving, make
00:09:21.193 --> 00:09:22.962 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68%
your requests known to God,
00:09:23.029 --> 00:09:24.096 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50%
and the peace of God
00:09:24.163 --> 00:09:26.432 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
which it will cover
00:09:26.499 --> 00:09:27.700 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
or guard your heart
00:09:27.767 --> 00:09:29.602 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60%
and your mind in Christ.
00:09:29.669 --> 00:09:31.070 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
So seeing the Scripture
00:09:31.137 --> 00:09:32.805 align:start line:85% position:10% size:73%
in context, it encourages us.
00:09:32.872 --> 00:09:33.940 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
God knows we're going
00:09:34.006 --> 00:09:35.508 align:start line:85% position:10% size:33%
to be afraid.
00:09:35.574 --> 00:09:36.642 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50%
Some of us deal with
00:09:36.709 --> 00:09:38.210 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
some really scary things.
00:09:38.277 --> 00:09:39.312 align:start line:63% position:10% size:58%
TAMMY: Do you feel like
00:09:39.378 --> 00:09:40.579 align:start line:63% position:10% size:73%
you're still battling anxiety
00:09:40.646 --> 00:09:42.148 align:start line:63% position:10% size:68%
now or have you found a way
00:09:42.214 --> 00:09:44.150 align:start line:63% position:10% size:55%
to tremble through it?
00:09:44.216 --> 00:09:45.318 align:start line:85% position:10% size:30%
BLAIR: Amen.
00:09:45.384 --> 00:09:46.552 align:start line:85% position:10% size:45%
I have found a way
00:09:46.619 --> 00:09:47.820 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55%
to tremble through it.
00:09:47.887 --> 00:09:49.188 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60%
RANDY: That's really it.
00:09:49.255 --> 00:09:51.057 align:start line:85% position:10% size:33%
BLAIR: It is!
00:09:51.123 --> 00:09:53.159 align:start line:85% position:10% size:70%
The reality is, I don't know
00:09:53.225 --> 00:09:55.261 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68%
what is to come in my life.
00:09:55.328 --> 00:09:56.796 align:start line:85% position:10% size:70%
I think sometimes we look at
00:09:56.862 --> 00:09:58.531 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
it as, if I feel the fear
00:09:58.597 --> 00:10:00.099 align:start line:85% position:10% size:73%
or the anxiety, then, Oh, no!
00:10:00.166 --> 00:10:02.134 align:start line:63% position:10% size:45%
I have this shame.
00:10:02.201 --> 00:10:03.703 align:start line:63% position:10% size:43%
I'm now isolated.
00:10:03.769 --> 00:10:04.937 align:start line:63% position:10% size:45%
I'm separated from
00:10:05.004 --> 00:10:06.105 align:start line:63% position:10% size:70%
the very person who actually
00:10:06.172 --> 00:10:07.440 align:start line:63% position:10% size:43%
has the resources
00:10:07.506 --> 00:10:09.875 align:start line:63% position:10% size:48%
to handle my fears.
00:10:09.942 --> 00:10:12.311 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50%
So my disposition is
00:10:12.378 --> 00:10:13.713 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65%
I'm just going to continue
00:10:13.779 --> 00:10:15.081 align:start line:85% position:10% size:43%
to run to the one
00:10:15.147 --> 00:10:16.315 align:start line:85% position:10% size:40%
who's in control
00:10:16.382 --> 00:10:17.650 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
and who's never afraid.
00:10:17.717 --> 00:10:18.918 align:start line:85% position:10% size:70%
I remember telling the Lord,
00:10:18.985 --> 00:10:21.220 align:start line:85% position:10% size:73%
I said, Lord, even if I never
00:10:21.287 --> 00:10:22.855 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50%
feel afraid anymore,
00:10:22.922 --> 00:10:24.056 align:start line:85% position:10% size:43%
don't let me lose
00:10:24.123 --> 00:10:25.758 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
this dependance upon you.
00:10:25.825 --> 00:10:27.126 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60%
Isn't that what our life
00:10:27.193 --> 00:10:28.894 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60%
is about as a Christian?
00:10:28.961 --> 00:10:30.062 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50%
It's really about us
00:10:30.129 --> 00:10:31.263 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55%
knowing who's with us.
00:10:31.330 --> 00:10:33.165 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60%
That Emmanuel is with us
00:10:33.232 --> 00:10:34.667 align:start line:85% position:10% size:38%
no matter what.
00:10:34.734 --> 00:10:35.868 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
RANDY: I think that's how
00:10:35.935 --> 00:10:36.969 align:start line:63% position:10% size:40%
you justify them
00:10:37.036 --> 00:10:38.337 align:start line:63% position:10% size:65%
as a subtitle in the book,
00:10:38.404 --> 00:10:39.805 align:start line:63% position:10% size:38%
which is to say
00:10:39.872 --> 00:10:41.240 align:start line:63% position:10% size:53%
that anxiety and fear
00:10:41.307 --> 00:10:44.310 align:start line:63% position:10% size:45%
can actually be --
00:10:44.377 --> 00:10:45.478 align:start line:63% position:10% size:58%
turn into a good thing.
00:10:45.544 --> 00:10:46.579 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
I don't want to say
00:10:46.645 --> 00:10:48.247 align:start line:85% position:10% size:43%
it's a good thing
00:10:48.314 --> 00:10:49.915 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50%
in and of itself but
00:10:49.982 --> 00:10:51.650 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65%
it can push you to a place
00:10:51.717 --> 00:10:52.718 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
where you look back
00:10:52.785 --> 00:10:53.786 align:start line:85% position:10% size:45%
and then go, okay.
00:10:53.853 --> 00:10:54.854 align:start line:85% position:10% size:45%
Because of that --
00:10:54.920 --> 00:10:55.921 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
and because I responded
00:10:55.988 --> 00:10:57.089 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50%
by taking it to God,
00:10:57.156 --> 00:10:58.257 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
it turns into a blessing,
00:10:58.324 --> 00:10:59.325 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50%
which is what you're
00:10:59.392 --> 00:11:00.393 align:start line:85% position:10% size:43%
basically saying.
00:11:00.459 --> 00:11:01.460 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50%
BLAIR: That's right.
00:11:01.527 --> 00:11:02.528 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
Because it's not that
00:11:02.595 --> 00:11:03.596 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65%
suffering is automatically
00:11:03.662 --> 00:11:04.663 align:start line:85% position:10% size:45%
going to mean that
00:11:04.730 --> 00:11:05.731 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55%
we're going to respond
00:11:05.798 --> 00:11:06.799 align:start line:85% position:10% size:45%
in the proper way.
00:11:06.866 --> 00:11:07.967 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55%
We still have to learn
00:11:08.034 --> 00:11:09.035 align:start line:85% position:10% size:25%
the tools.
00:11:09.101 --> 00:11:10.503 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
I remember I had to learn
00:11:10.569 --> 00:11:11.670 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55%
what does it look like
00:11:11.737 --> 00:11:12.738 align:start line:85% position:10% size:43%
to cast my cares?
00:11:12.805 --> 00:11:14.206 align:start line:85% position:10% size:73%
I've heard that my whole life
00:11:14.273 --> 00:11:15.274 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
growing up in church,
00:11:15.341 --> 00:11:16.342 align:start line:85% position:10% size:38%
cast your cares
00:11:16.409 --> 00:11:17.410 align:start line:85% position:10% size:43%
over to the Lord!
00:11:17.476 --> 00:11:18.477 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50%
I remember thinking,
00:11:18.544 --> 00:11:19.678 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55%
God, I don't know how.
00:11:19.745 --> 00:11:20.880 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
You have to teach me.
00:11:20.946 --> 00:11:22.081 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
You've got to walk me
00:11:22.148 --> 00:11:23.149 align:start line:85% position:10% size:33%
through this.
00:11:23.215 --> 00:11:24.350 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
And learning how to pray.
00:11:24.417 --> 00:11:26.952 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68%
And not to pray in anxiety.
00:11:27.019 --> 00:11:28.220 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
What I mean to pray
00:11:28.287 --> 00:11:29.255 align:start line:85% position:10% size:35%
in my anxiety,
00:11:29.321 --> 00:11:31.724 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
but not to pray anxiously
00:11:31.791 --> 00:11:33.125 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
because I think sometimes
00:11:33.192 --> 00:11:36.328 align:start line:85% position:10% size:75%
we fight anxiety with anxiety.
00:11:36.395 --> 00:11:37.730 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
We do. Because it's like,
00:11:37.797 --> 00:11:38.964 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65%
I want to get rid of this.
00:11:39.031 --> 00:11:40.032 align:start line:85% position:10% size:43%
I don't want this
00:11:40.099 --> 00:11:41.300 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
in my life anymore.
00:11:41.367 --> 00:11:43.035 align:start line:85% position:10% size:75%
And so, let's just get it out.
00:11:43.102 --> 00:11:44.503 align:start line:85% position:10% size:70%
So I'm almost praying, maybe
00:11:44.570 --> 00:11:46.172 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55%
there's a scrupulosity
00:11:46.238 --> 00:11:47.673 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
or a rumination and like,
00:11:47.740 --> 00:11:49.275 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65%
let me just pray ten times
00:11:49.341 --> 00:11:50.509 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
to get it out of my life.
00:11:50.576 --> 00:11:51.710 align:start line:85% position:10% size:45%
No! Because that's
00:11:51.777 --> 00:11:53.646 align:start line:85% position:10% size:33%
more anxiety.
00:11:53.712 --> 00:11:55.714 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
But we can rest in God,
00:11:55.781 --> 00:11:56.849 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
and we can trust that
00:11:56.916 --> 00:11:57.950 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65%
the Holy Spirit is working
00:11:58.017 --> 00:11:59.251 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
in us, that nothing
00:11:59.318 --> 00:12:00.352 align:start line:85% position:10% size:40%
will separate us
00:12:00.419 --> 00:12:01.454 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
from the love of God,
00:12:01.520 --> 00:12:02.888 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60%
not even a panic attack,
00:12:02.955 --> 00:12:04.056 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
and that God is with us
00:12:04.123 --> 00:12:05.191 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
in the midst of it.
00:12:05.257 --> 00:12:06.225 align:start line:85% position:10% size:73%
So when I'm casting my cares,
00:12:06.292 --> 00:12:07.259 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
I don't have to do it
00:12:07.326 --> 00:12:08.427 align:start line:85% position:10% size:25%
anxiously.
00:12:08.494 --> 00:12:09.795 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
I do it trusting God.
00:12:09.862 --> 00:12:12.164 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50%
You are able to deal
00:12:12.231 --> 00:12:13.699 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50%
with this situation.
00:12:13.766 --> 00:12:15.601 align:start line:85% position:10% size:73%
You can change the situation.
00:12:15.668 --> 00:12:16.669 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
I'm concerned about
00:12:16.735 --> 00:12:17.736 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
another deer coming
00:12:17.803 --> 00:12:18.871 align:start line:85% position:10% size:33%
when I drive.
00:12:18.938 --> 00:12:20.172 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
TAMMY: Are you still?
00:12:20.239 --> 00:12:22.475 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
BLAIR: I'm not anymore,
00:12:22.541 --> 00:12:23.609 align:start line:85% position:10% size:40%
but in the thick
00:12:23.676 --> 00:12:24.677 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50%
of the battle I was.
00:12:24.743 --> 00:12:26.245 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68%
So I had to eventually say,
00:12:26.312 --> 00:12:27.546 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
well, you're in control
00:12:27.613 --> 00:12:28.981 align:start line:85% position:10% size:43%
of the deer, God.
00:12:29.048 --> 00:12:30.716 align:start line:85% position:10% size:40%
I mean, I'm not.
00:12:30.783 --> 00:12:32.918 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68%
So I could either not drive
00:12:32.985 --> 00:12:33.919 align:start line:85% position:10% size:70%
because that was the thought
00:12:33.986 --> 00:12:34.954 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
that came to my mind.
00:12:35.020 --> 00:12:36.021 align:start line:85% position:10% size:35%
Maybe I should
00:12:36.088 --> 00:12:37.123 align:start line:85% position:10% size:45%
never drive again.
00:12:37.189 --> 00:12:38.691 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
Or I could say my God
00:12:38.757 --> 00:12:39.959 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65%
is in control of the deer.
00:12:40.025 --> 00:12:41.060 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55%
Now, that doesn't mean
00:12:41.127 --> 00:12:42.661 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
I won't hit another deer,
00:12:42.728 --> 00:12:43.696 align:start line:85% position:10% size:43%
but it means that
00:12:43.762 --> 00:12:45.264 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68%
even if I do, he's with me.
00:12:45.331 --> 00:12:46.365 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55%
Even if the worst case
00:12:46.432 --> 00:12:47.833 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
scenario plays out,
00:12:47.900 --> 00:12:49.034 align:start line:85% position:10% size:33%
he's with me.
00:12:49.101 --> 00:12:51.737 align:start line:85% position:10% size:70%
Even if I die, he's with me.
00:12:51.804 --> 00:12:53.205 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
And seeing death from
00:12:53.272 --> 00:12:54.673 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55%
a biblical perspective
00:12:54.740 --> 00:12:56.675 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50%
that to die is gain,
00:12:56.742 --> 00:12:57.810 align:start line:85% position:10% size:43%
having to wrestle
00:12:57.877 --> 00:12:59.445 align:start line:85% position:10% size:45%
with that reality,
00:12:59.512 --> 00:13:00.846 align:start line:85% position:10% size:70%
like the worst case scenario
00:13:00.913 --> 00:13:02.548 align:start line:85% position:10% size:33%
is still gain
00:13:02.615 --> 00:13:03.816 align:start line:85% position:10% size:45%
for the Christian.
00:13:03.883 --> 00:13:05.351 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
TAMMY: I was talking to
00:13:05.417 --> 00:13:06.619 align:start line:63% position:10% size:70%
my mom the other day who has
00:13:06.685 --> 00:13:07.786 align:start line:63% position:10% size:65%
gone through cancer twice,
00:13:07.853 --> 00:13:09.421 align:start line:63% position:10% size:50%
breast cancer twice.
00:13:09.488 --> 00:13:10.823 align:start line:63% position:10% size:68%
She went in for a mammogram
00:13:10.890 --> 00:13:11.991 align:start line:63% position:10% size:48%
and they said, hey,
00:13:12.057 --> 00:13:13.058 align:start line:63% position:10% size:43%
we see something,
00:13:13.125 --> 00:13:14.126 align:start line:63% position:10% size:63%
we need you to come back.
00:13:14.193 --> 00:13:15.528 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
I remember her sending us
00:13:15.594 --> 00:13:17.630 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
a text, me and my sister.
00:13:17.696 --> 00:13:18.831 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50%
Just "Pray for mama.
00:13:18.898 --> 00:13:20.099 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60%
I've got to go back in."
00:13:20.166 --> 00:13:21.333 align:start line:85% position:10% size:70%
I called her and I was like,
00:13:21.400 --> 00:13:22.401 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
"How are you doing, Mom?"
00:13:22.468 --> 00:13:23.702 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68%
She's like "I'm doing okay.
00:13:23.769 --> 00:13:25.471 align:start line:85% position:10% size:40%
I'm doing okay."
00:13:25.538 --> 00:13:26.539 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
She said, "I'm not afraid
00:13:26.605 --> 00:13:27.773 align:start line:85% position:10% size:18%
to die.
00:13:27.840 --> 00:13:29.108 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60%
I'm not afraid of dying.
00:13:29.175 --> 00:13:30.743 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55%
There's a lot going on
00:13:30.809 --> 00:13:32.044 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55%
in my life right now."
00:13:32.111 --> 00:13:33.179 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
I said, "I know, Mom.
00:13:33.245 --> 00:13:34.213 align:start line:85% position:10% size:70%
You're probably just feeling
00:13:34.280 --> 00:13:35.281 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50%
like nobody has time
00:13:35.347 --> 00:13:36.415 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
for this right now.
00:13:36.482 --> 00:13:37.716 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65%
You just don't have time."
00:13:37.783 --> 00:13:38.784 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68%
But I began to pray for her
00:13:38.851 --> 00:13:40.019 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
because I know that
00:13:40.085 --> 00:13:41.120 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68%
she can even fight anxiety.
00:13:41.187 --> 00:13:42.421 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
And sometimes, that whole
00:13:42.488 --> 00:13:43.756 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65%
report that you might get,
00:13:43.822 --> 00:13:44.990 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60%
and we start battling it
00:13:45.057 --> 00:13:46.692 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
even before we know
00:13:46.759 --> 00:13:48.327 align:start line:85% position:10% size:40%
what is to come.
00:13:48.394 --> 00:13:49.995 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
But it's what we speak,
00:13:50.062 --> 00:13:51.564 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65%
what we say, what we pray.
00:13:51.630 --> 00:13:52.631 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
And she is a deep woman
00:13:52.698 --> 00:13:53.699 align:start line:85% position:10% size:23%
of faith.
00:13:53.766 --> 00:13:54.800 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50%
And even my mom, who
00:13:54.867 --> 00:13:56.035 align:start line:85% position:10% size:70%
I've watched walk with Jesus
00:13:56.101 --> 00:13:57.770 align:start line:85% position:10% size:70%
her whole life, a deep walk,
00:13:57.836 --> 00:13:59.438 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
still can struggle with
00:13:59.505 --> 00:14:01.407 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
the lie, to me, sometimes
00:14:01.473 --> 00:14:02.775 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50%
the lie of the enemy
00:14:02.841 --> 00:14:04.043 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68%
that says whatever he wants
00:14:04.109 --> 00:14:05.144 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68%
to say that all of a sudden
00:14:05.211 --> 00:14:06.378 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
anxiety sets in and
00:14:06.445 --> 00:14:08.681 align:start line:85% position:10% size:73%
it takes hold and takes root.
00:14:08.747 --> 00:14:09.848 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
I know my mom knows how
00:14:09.915 --> 00:14:11.217 align:start line:85% position:10% size:73%
to fight her way out of that,
00:14:11.283 --> 00:14:13.619 align:start line:85% position:10% size:73%
but some people don't, Blair.
00:14:13.686 --> 00:14:15.254 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
Do you walk us through?
00:14:15.321 --> 00:14:16.488 align:start line:85% position:10% size:30%
BLAIR: I do.
00:14:16.555 --> 00:14:17.890 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55%
Yeah, I absolutely do.
00:14:17.957 --> 00:14:19.158 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65%
For one, it's so important
00:14:19.225 --> 00:14:20.693 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68%
to know not everything that
00:14:20.759 --> 00:14:22.461 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
comes to my mind is true.
00:14:22.528 --> 00:14:23.762 align:start line:85% position:10% size:43%
We often struggle
00:14:23.829 --> 00:14:25.598 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50%
with these what-ifs.
00:14:25.664 --> 00:14:26.832 align:start line:63% position:10% size:38%
If this happens
00:14:26.899 --> 00:14:28.400 align:start line:63% position:10% size:73%
or what if this is happening.
00:14:28.467 --> 00:14:29.668 align:start line:63% position:10% size:48%
Or you know, I have
00:14:29.735 --> 00:14:30.736 align:start line:63% position:10% size:53%
this ache in my body,
00:14:30.803 --> 00:14:33.105 align:start line:63% position:10% size:45%
what if it's this?
00:14:33.172 --> 00:14:34.340 align:start line:63% position:10% size:63%
So learning to take those
00:14:34.406 --> 00:14:35.874 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
thoughts captive and make
00:14:35.941 --> 00:14:37.476 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60%
them obedient to Christ.
00:14:37.543 --> 00:14:39.345 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
Learning how to pray.
00:14:39.411 --> 00:14:40.546 align:start line:85% position:10% size:43%
I also talk about
00:14:40.613 --> 00:14:42.114 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68%
the importance of community
00:14:42.181 --> 00:14:43.449 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65%
because, you know, anxiety
00:14:43.515 --> 00:14:45.217 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68%
can make you very isolated.
00:14:45.284 --> 00:14:47.286 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
You feel so much shame.
00:14:47.353 --> 00:14:48.387 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
So what does it look like
00:14:48.454 --> 00:14:49.855 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
to welcome your community
00:14:49.922 --> 00:14:51.757 align:start line:85% position:10% size:45%
into your anxiety?
00:14:51.824 --> 00:14:53.459 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60%
So I would, for example,
00:14:53.525 --> 00:14:54.960 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65%
have to wake my husband up
00:14:55.027 --> 00:14:56.629 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60%
when I would be woken up
00:14:56.695 --> 00:14:58.030 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65%
in the middle of the night
00:14:58.097 --> 00:14:59.131 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50%
because I'm dreaming
00:14:59.198 --> 00:15:00.232 align:start line:85% position:10% size:28%
about deer.
00:15:00.299 --> 00:15:01.333 align:start line:85% position:10% size:35%
I'm not trying
00:15:01.400 --> 00:15:02.368 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50%
to think about deer.
00:15:02.434 --> 00:15:03.602 align:start line:85% position:10% size:25%
My body --
00:15:03.669 --> 00:15:04.703 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
TAMMY: I don't want
00:15:04.770 --> 00:15:06.071 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55%
to think about Rudolf!
00:15:06.138 --> 00:15:07.339 align:start line:85% position:10% size:38%
BLAIR: Exactly!
00:15:07.406 --> 00:15:08.474 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65%
Like that's the last thing
00:15:08.540 --> 00:15:09.842 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55%
I want to think about.
00:15:09.908 --> 00:15:12.678 align:start line:85% position:10% size:40%
And I'm woken up
00:15:12.745 --> 00:15:14.880 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50%
into a panic attack.
00:15:14.947 --> 00:15:16.348 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68%
So there was a moment where
00:15:16.415 --> 00:15:17.783 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
I think, okay, Blair,
00:15:17.850 --> 00:15:18.851 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50%
you can handle this.
00:15:18.917 --> 00:15:20.152 align:start line:85% position:10% size:33%
You got this.
00:15:20.219 --> 00:15:21.820 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
It's like, no, I don't.
00:15:21.887 --> 00:15:24.657 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
Okay? I don't got this.
00:15:24.723 --> 00:15:25.891 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65%
I would wake up my husband
00:15:25.958 --> 00:15:27.026 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60%
and say, "Would you pray
00:15:27.092 --> 00:15:28.460 align:start line:85% position:10% size:23%
with me?"
00:15:28.527 --> 00:15:30.129 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60%
RANDY: How did you pray?
00:15:30.195 --> 00:15:31.563 align:start line:85% position:10% size:30%
I'm curious.
00:15:31.630 --> 00:15:32.631 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
What would that prayer --
00:15:32.698 --> 00:15:33.699 align:start line:85% position:10% size:40%
is it just like,
00:15:33.766 --> 00:15:34.833 align:start line:85% position:10% size:38%
God forgive me?
00:15:34.900 --> 00:15:35.968 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55%
Or is it God, help me.
00:15:36.035 --> 00:15:37.136 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55%
A little of all of it?
00:15:37.202 --> 00:15:38.237 align:start line:85% position:10% size:70%
BLAIR: It depended upon what
00:15:38.304 --> 00:15:39.638 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68%
was going on in the moment.
00:15:39.705 --> 00:15:41.173 align:start line:85% position:10% size:73%
So if I am, if it is a sinful
00:15:41.240 --> 00:15:42.841 align:start line:85% position:10% size:73%
fear where I'm thinking about
00:15:42.908 --> 00:15:44.143 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
something that I know
00:15:44.209 --> 00:15:46.045 align:start line:85% position:10% size:43%
this is not true,
00:15:46.111 --> 00:15:47.179 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55%
sometimes it's hard to
00:15:47.246 --> 00:15:48.447 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68%
differentiate between that,
00:15:48.514 --> 00:15:49.682 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55%
and we need God's help
00:15:49.748 --> 00:15:51.050 align:start line:85% position:10% size:38%
even with that,
00:15:51.116 --> 00:15:53.352 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
and community to help us.
00:15:53.419 --> 00:15:54.720 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50%
So it would be, God,
00:15:54.787 --> 00:15:56.322 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60%
please help me to repent
00:15:56.388 --> 00:15:57.856 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60%
of these sinful thoughts
00:15:57.923 --> 00:15:59.425 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68%
that I'm having and help me
00:15:59.491 --> 00:16:02.094 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68%
to hold on to what is true.
00:16:02.161 --> 00:16:03.495 align:start line:63% position:10% size:65%
Then there are other times
00:16:03.562 --> 00:16:04.863 align:start line:63% position:10% size:53%
where it's like, God,
00:16:04.930 --> 00:16:06.532 align:start line:63% position:10% size:48%
my heart is racing.
00:16:06.598 --> 00:16:07.700 align:start line:63% position:10% size:55%
I'm just feeling these
00:16:07.766 --> 00:16:08.967 align:start line:63% position:10% size:58%
physiological symptoms.
00:16:09.034 --> 00:16:11.003 align:start line:63% position:10% size:50%
God, you are holding
00:16:11.070 --> 00:16:12.671 align:start line:63% position:10% size:43%
my body together.
00:16:12.738 --> 00:16:14.173 align:start line:85% position:10% size:70%
Lord, would you hold my mind
00:16:14.239 --> 00:16:15.607 align:start line:85% position:10% size:23%
together?
00:16:15.674 --> 00:16:16.909 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
You are in control of
00:16:16.975 --> 00:16:18.043 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
this entire universe,
00:16:18.110 --> 00:16:19.278 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60%
you're in control of me,
00:16:19.345 --> 00:16:22.181 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
and so, God, you know me,
00:16:22.247 --> 00:16:23.182 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55%
and I'm feeling afraid
00:16:23.248 --> 00:16:24.483 align:start line:85% position:10% size:25%
right now.
00:16:24.550 --> 00:16:25.718 align:start line:85% position:10% size:45%
Would you help me?
00:16:25.784 --> 00:16:27.419 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
It was just a constant.
00:16:27.486 --> 00:16:29.188 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68%
I could be amongst friends,
00:16:29.254 --> 00:16:30.389 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
but I would be whispering
00:16:30.456 --> 00:16:31.423 align:start line:85% position:10% size:35%
those prayers.
00:16:31.490 --> 00:16:32.424 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
God, I'm feeling like
00:16:32.491 --> 00:16:33.459 align:start line:85% position:10% size:43%
I'm about to have
00:16:33.525 --> 00:16:34.460 align:start line:85% position:10% size:38%
a panic attack.
00:16:34.526 --> 00:16:35.494 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68%
TAMMY: Blair, those prayers
00:16:35.561 --> 00:16:36.562 align:start line:85% position:10% size:30%
seem simple,
00:16:36.628 --> 00:16:37.696 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55%
but they are powerful.
00:16:37.763 --> 00:16:38.897 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60%
Because what you've done
00:16:38.964 --> 00:16:40.099 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60%
is what you said before,
00:16:40.165 --> 00:16:41.300 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
you've taken authority.
00:16:41.367 --> 00:16:42.401 align:start line:85% position:10% size:43%
You've been given
00:16:42.468 --> 00:16:43.635 align:start line:85% position:10% size:73%
all authority, and so you can
00:16:43.702 --> 00:16:45.404 align:start line:85% position:10% size:73%
speak to those panic attacks.
00:16:45.471 --> 00:16:46.472 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
What I mean by that
00:16:46.538 --> 00:16:47.539 align:start line:85% position:10% size:35%
is to say, no!
00:16:47.606 --> 00:16:48.941 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
I am not going to let you
00:16:49.007 --> 00:16:50.008 align:start line:85% position:10% size:38%
control my mind
00:16:50.075 --> 00:16:51.076 align:start line:85% position:10% size:38%
or my thoughts.
00:16:51.143 --> 00:16:52.144 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
I'm not believing this.
00:16:52.211 --> 00:16:53.212 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65%
I'm believomg good things.
00:16:53.278 --> 00:16:54.279 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
And Father, you are
00:16:54.346 --> 00:16:55.347 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
in control of everything.
00:16:55.414 --> 00:16:56.415 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68%
You're controlling my life,
00:16:56.482 --> 00:16:57.483 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60%
my thoughts, everything.
00:16:57.549 --> 00:16:58.650 align:start line:85% position:10% size:73%
I surrender them, I give them
00:16:58.717 --> 00:17:00.185 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55%
to you in Jesus' name.
00:17:00.252 --> 00:17:02.054 align:start line:85% position:10% size:73%
It's sometimes simple to say,
00:17:02.121 --> 00:17:03.355 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
I'm surrendering this
00:17:03.422 --> 00:17:05.057 align:start line:85% position:10% size:30%
to you, God.
00:17:05.124 --> 00:17:06.525 align:start line:85% position:10% size:73%
BLAIR: I think a part of that
00:17:06.592 --> 00:17:08.193 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
is knowing, again, who is
00:17:08.260 --> 00:17:10.295 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
with you because Christ
00:17:10.362 --> 00:17:12.998 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50%
has conquered death.
00:17:13.065 --> 00:17:14.566 align:start line:85% position:10% size:48%
He's conquered sin.
00:17:14.633 --> 00:17:15.768 align:start line:85% position:10% size:40%
He is in control
00:17:15.834 --> 00:17:17.369 align:start line:85% position:10% size:35%
of all things.
00:17:17.436 --> 00:17:19.037 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
So because of our union
00:17:19.104 --> 00:17:20.205 align:start line:85% position:10% size:30%
with Christ,
00:17:20.272 --> 00:17:22.040 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50%
we're hidden in him.
00:17:22.107 --> 00:17:23.809 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60%
So even as I think about
00:17:23.876 --> 00:17:25.277 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65%
Ephesians six, which talks
00:17:25.344 --> 00:17:27.312 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68%
about those flaming arrows,
00:17:27.379 --> 00:17:28.414 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50%
because I talk about
00:17:28.480 --> 00:17:29.648 align:start line:85% position:10% size:43%
spiritual warfare
00:17:29.715 --> 00:17:31.150 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50%
as well in the book.
00:17:31.216 --> 00:17:32.418 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
When those flaming arrows
00:17:32.484 --> 00:17:33.852 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65%
come, we are to be clothed
00:17:33.919 --> 00:17:35.053 align:start line:85% position:10% size:53%
in Christ: The helmet
00:17:35.120 --> 00:17:36.355 align:start line:85% position:10% size:73%
of salvation, the breastplate
00:17:36.422 --> 00:17:37.423 align:start line:85% position:10% size:43%
of righteousness,
00:17:37.489 --> 00:17:39.525 align:start line:85% position:10% size:45%
the belt of truth.
00:17:39.591 --> 00:17:41.260 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60%
What that text is saying
00:17:41.326 --> 00:17:42.961 align:start line:85% position:10% size:70%
is clothe yourself in Christ
00:17:43.028 --> 00:17:44.263 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50%
because that's where
00:17:44.329 --> 00:17:45.564 align:start line:85% position:10% size:38%
the victory is.
00:17:45.631 --> 00:17:46.932 align:start line:85% position:10% size:73%
He has full authority, and if
00:17:46.999 --> 00:17:49.368 align:start line:85% position:10% size:73%
we're in him, he's conquered,
00:17:49.435 --> 00:17:50.436 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65%
and so now we're more than
00:17:50.502 --> 00:17:52.137 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65%
conquerors through Christ.
00:17:52.204 --> 00:17:53.338 align:start line:85% position:10% size:43%
RANDY: All right.
00:17:53.405 --> 00:17:55.441 align:start line:85% position:10% size:73%
So we've talked about prayer.
00:17:55.507 --> 00:17:56.475 align:start line:85% position:10% size:45%
We've talked about
00:17:56.542 --> 00:17:57.543 align:start line:85% position:10% size:33%
Blair's book.
00:17:57.609 --> 00:17:58.544 align:start line:63% position:10% size:68%
If you want someone to pray
00:17:58.610 --> 00:18:00.245 align:start line:63% position:10% size:48%
with you right now,
00:18:00.312 --> 00:18:01.513 align:start line:63% position:10% size:65%
whatever that prayer needs
00:18:01.580 --> 00:18:02.681 align:start line:63% position:10% size:33%
to look like,
00:18:02.748 --> 00:18:03.715 align:start line:63% position:10% size:68%
whether it's the repentance
00:18:03.782 --> 00:18:05.284 align:start line:63% position:10% size:38%
or there's just
00:18:05.350 --> 00:18:06.618 align:start line:63% position:10% size:53%
the taking authority,
00:18:06.685 --> 00:18:07.820 align:start line:63% position:10% size:60%
speaking truth, you want
00:18:07.886 --> 00:18:08.887 align:start line:63% position:10% size:60%
someone to do that, call
00:18:08.954 --> 00:18:09.955 align:start line:63% position:10% size:65%
that number on the screen.
00:18:10.022 --> 00:18:11.023 align:start line:63% position:10% size:65%
We have people standing by
00:18:11.089 --> 00:18:12.157 align:start line:63% position:10% size:33%
who will just
00:18:12.224 --> 00:18:13.225 align:start line:63% position:10% size:53%
simply pray with you.
00:18:13.292 --> 00:18:14.693 align:start line:63% position:10% size:55%
I say "simply" because
00:18:14.760 --> 00:18:16.295 align:start line:63% position:10% size:70%
sometimes it seems too easy,
00:18:16.361 --> 00:18:18.263 align:start line:63% position:10% size:70%
but there's power in prayer.
00:18:18.330 --> 00:18:19.932 align:start line:63% position:10% size:70%
We want to be there for you.
00:18:19.998 --> 00:18:21.233 align:start line:63% position:10% size:55%
Then if you would like
00:18:21.300 --> 00:18:22.267 align:start line:63% position:10% size:70%
Blair's book, you can get it
00:18:22.334 --> 00:18:23.302 align:start line:63% position:10% size:60%
where you get books, but
00:18:23.368 --> 00:18:24.470 align:start line:63% position:10% size:58%
we're going to give you
00:18:24.536 --> 00:18:26.338 align:start line:63% position:10% size:75%
an opportunity to be an answer
00:18:26.405 --> 00:18:27.473 align:start line:63% position:10% size:55%
to someone else's very
00:18:27.539 --> 00:18:30.242 align:start line:63% position:10% size:70%
legitimate fear and anxiety.
00:18:30.309 --> 00:18:31.510 align:start line:63% position:10% size:45%
If you request it,
00:18:31.577 --> 00:18:32.811 align:start line:63% position:10% size:35%
we'll send you
00:18:32.878 --> 00:18:34.046 align:start line:63% position:10% size:55%
Made to Tremble today.
00:18:34.112 --> 00:18:35.214 align:start line:63% position:10% size:38%
But watch this.
00:18:35.280 --> 00:18:36.281 align:start line:63% position:10% size:60%
I want you to see a need
00:18:36.348 --> 00:18:37.382 align:start line:63% position:10% size:68%
that I think sometimes when
00:18:37.449 --> 00:18:38.817 align:start line:63% position:10% size:65%
you step outside yourself,
00:18:38.884 --> 00:18:39.818 align:start line:63% position:10% size:55%
that's one of the keys
00:18:39.885 --> 00:18:41.687 align:start line:63% position:10% size:63%
to getting rid of anxiety
00:18:41.753 --> 00:18:42.821 align:start line:63% position:10% size:23%
and fear.
00:18:42.888 --> 00:18:43.922 align:start line:63% position:10% size:53%
But more importantly,
00:18:43.989 --> 00:18:45.057 align:start line:63% position:10% size:60%
it's a key to expressing
00:18:45.123 --> 00:18:46.158 align:start line:63% position:10% size:55%
God's love to someone.
00:18:46.225 --> 00:18:48.794 align:start line:63% position:10% size:58%
So take a look at this,
00:18:48.861 --> 00:18:50.062 align:start line:63% position:10% size:73%
say a little prayer yourself,
00:18:50.128 --> 00:18:51.163 align:start line:63% position:10% size:48%
and see how you can
00:18:51.230 --> 00:18:52.564 align:start line:63% position:10% size:45%
be involved today.
00:18:54.433 --> 00:18:57.469 align:start line:10% position:23% size:55%
When the silent killer
malnutrition sets in
00:18:57.536 --> 00:19:00.672 align:center line:10% position:50% size:75%
among the most vulnerable,
it produces what you're seeing
00:19:00.739 --> 00:19:05.811 align:center line:10% position:50% size:70%
in these children: Thinning
hair, thin and frail bodies.
00:19:05.878 --> 00:19:08.247 align:start line:10% position:25% size:48%
When young children
reach these stages,
00:19:08.313 --> 00:19:13.418 align:center line:10% position:50% size:48%
chances of survival
are very slim.
00:19:13.485 --> 00:19:17.823 align:start line:63% position:10% size:68%
ISAK: We're here with nurse
Alice, the senior nurse
00:19:17.890 --> 00:19:22.261 align:center line:63% position:45% size:68%
in this malnutrition clinic
in southern Angola.
00:19:22.327 --> 00:19:25.130 align:start line:63% position:10% size:63%
She's just been assessing
this little guy.
00:19:25.197 --> 00:19:27.232 align:center line:79% position:50% size:28%
His name
is Ignacio.
00:19:27.299 --> 00:19:31.537 align:start line:74% position:18% size:65%
When she measured the arm,
the fact the measurement
is in red,
00:19:31.603 --> 00:19:35.641 align:center line:79% position:50% size:65%
Alice was explaining to us
that shows that this child
00:19:35.707 --> 00:19:39.278 align:center line:79% position:50% size:70%
is in a critical condition,
suffering from malnutrition.
00:19:39.344 --> 00:19:41.547 align:start line:79% position:18% size:63%
As she put it,
that's admitted criteria.
00:19:41.613 --> 00:19:44.316 align:start line:10% position:13% size:73%
This child has to be admitted
into a malnutrition clinic.
00:19:44.383 --> 00:19:48.186 align:start line:10% position:13% size:75%
That's the reality for so many
of the children in this area
00:19:48.253 --> 00:19:50.622 align:center line:10% position:50% size:48%
for so many mothers
like Rosa,
00:19:50.689 --> 00:19:52.958 align:center line:10% position:50% size:55%
who are literally
out there in villages.
00:19:53.025 --> 00:19:55.027 align:start line:10% position:25% size:48%
For every one child
in these clinics,
00:19:55.093 --> 00:19:57.896 align:center line:10% position:50% size:53%
that represents
tens or even hundreds
00:19:57.963 --> 00:19:59.965 align:start line:10% position:25% size:50%
of children
out in the villages.
00:20:00.032 --> 00:20:02.100 align:center line:10% position:50% size:58%
Nurse Alice has told us
how they've seen
00:20:02.167 --> 00:20:05.070 align:center line:10% position:50% size:63%
an incredible increase
in the number of children
00:20:05.137 --> 00:20:07.139 align:center line:10% position:50% size:53%
coming into these
malnutrition clinics.
00:20:07.205 --> 00:20:09.408 align:start line:10% position:20% size:58%
When asked why,
one of the main reasons
00:20:09.474 --> 00:20:11.476 align:center line:10% position:50% size:33%
is because of
the drought.
00:20:11.543 --> 00:20:14.346 align:start line:10% position:18% size:63%
That is what we're seeing
at a village level.
00:20:14.413 --> 00:20:19.284 align:start line:10% position:15% size:70%
It's projected that over
114,000 children will suffer
00:20:19.351 --> 00:20:23.121 align:center line:10% position:50% size:58%
of acute malnutrition
in the next few months.
00:20:23.188 --> 00:20:27.326 align:start line:79% position:15% size:70%
But here's the reality.
I gave you those statistics.
00:20:27.392 --> 00:20:31.263 align:center line:79% position:50% size:68%
Those are not just numbers.
Those are real lives.
00:20:31.330 --> 00:20:33.665 align:start line:79% position:25% size:50%
Those are
individual children.
00:20:33.732 --> 00:20:35.801 align:start line:79% position:28% size:43%
Those are mothers
whose hearts
00:20:35.867 --> 00:20:38.904 align:center line:79% position:50% size:53%
will be broken
because they can't do
00:20:38.971 --> 00:20:41.673 align:center line:79% position:50% size:70%
what they need to do to save
their children's lives.
00:20:41.740 --> 00:20:44.643 align:start line:79% position:18% size:65%
They're doing everything,
but they cannot save them.
00:20:44.710 --> 00:20:46.712 align:start line:79% position:28% size:45%
Not without you --
and not with us,
00:20:46.778 --> 00:20:49.214 align:center line:79% position:50% size:58%
and the mission workers
here out in the field.
00:20:49.281 --> 00:20:53.952 align:start line:74% position:23% size:55%
That is why I need you
to please be an answer
to prayer today.
00:20:54.019 --> 00:20:56.221 align:center line:79% position:50% size:48%
I need you
to open your heart.
00:20:56.288 --> 00:20:58.724 align:start line:79% position:23% size:53%
I need you to express
God's heart
00:20:58.790 --> 00:21:02.127 align:center line:79% position:50% size:65%
and to extend his hands
to the children like this,
00:21:02.194 --> 00:21:05.631 align:center line:74% position:50% size:68%
to the malnutrition clinics
that so desperately need
our assistance.
00:21:05.697 --> 00:21:08.266 align:start line:79% position:25% size:50%
But to the mothers
out in the villages,
00:21:08.333 --> 00:21:10.335 align:center line:79% position:50% size:40%
that if they get
those resources,
00:21:10.402 --> 00:21:13.171 align:center line:79% position:50% size:58%
can keep their children
from ending up here
00:21:13.238 --> 00:21:17.376 align:center line:79% position:50% size:63%
and battling that
battle of life and death.
00:21:20.679 --> 00:21:22.180 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65%
RANDY: I know those images
00:21:22.247 --> 00:21:24.349 align:start line:85% position:10% size:45%
are hard to watch.
00:21:24.416 --> 00:21:26.118 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55%
It's hard to be there.
00:21:26.184 --> 00:21:27.386 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50%
Tammy, when I was at
00:21:27.452 --> 00:21:28.820 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65%
the clinic and the mothers
00:21:28.887 --> 00:21:30.555 align:start line:85% position:10% size:73%
there with all their children
00:21:30.622 --> 00:21:31.890 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68%
waiting to get some medical
00:21:31.957 --> 00:21:33.191 align:start line:85% position:10% size:65%
attention because they had
00:21:33.258 --> 00:21:36.261 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
reached a dire situation,
00:21:36.328 --> 00:21:37.829 align:start line:85% position:10% size:58%
what you didn't see was
00:21:37.896 --> 00:21:39.464 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55%
just around the corner
00:21:39.531 --> 00:21:40.799 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68%
where there's another group
00:21:40.866 --> 00:21:42.801 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
of mothers with children.
00:21:42.868 --> 00:21:43.969 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55%
The mothers are coming
00:21:44.036 --> 00:21:45.837 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55%
and coming and coming.
00:21:45.904 --> 00:21:47.506 align:start line:85% position:10% size:60%
Right now there's a very
00:21:47.572 --> 00:21:50.275 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
serious situation because
00:21:50.342 --> 00:21:53.545 align:start line:85% position:10% size:73%
the supplies are running low.
00:21:53.612 --> 00:21:55.047 align:start line:85% position:10% size:50%
It's due to a lot of
00:21:55.113 --> 00:21:57.582 align:start line:85% position:10% size:75%
situations around our country,
00:21:57.649 --> 00:21:59.918 align:start line:85% position:10% size:55%
even around the world.
00:21:59.985 --> 00:22:02.087 align:start line:85% position:10% size:68%
They can't always depend on
00:22:02.154 --> 00:22:03.922 align:start line:85% position:10% size:70%
the resources that they have
00:22:03.989 --> 00:22:05.323 align:start line:85% position:10% size:63%
depended on when they hit
00:22:05.657 --> 00:22:08.860 align:start line:10% position:10% size:63%
this emergency situation.
00:22:08.927 --> 00:22:10.328 align:start line:10% position:10% size:60%
That's why your response
00:22:10.395 --> 00:22:12.130 align:start line:10% position:10% size:53%
today is so critical.
00:22:12.197 --> 00:22:14.499 align:start line:10% position:10% size:48%
We have been there.
00:22:14.566 --> 00:22:15.801 align:start line:10% position:10% size:48%
We need to continue
00:22:15.867 --> 00:22:17.436 align:start line:10% position:10% size:58%
being there and we need
00:22:17.502 --> 00:22:19.571 align:start line:10% position:10% size:58%
to expand the outreach.
00:22:19.638 --> 00:22:20.672 align:start line:10% position:10% size:60%
Right now, we feed about
00:22:20.739 --> 00:22:23.842 align:start line:10% position:10% size:65%
350,000 children every day
00:22:23.909 --> 00:22:26.278 align:start line:10% position:10% size:75%
in the various mission feeding
00:22:26.344 --> 00:22:30.716 align:start line:10% position:10% size:73%
programs, but there are more.
00:22:30.782 --> 00:22:34.019 align:start line:10% position:10% size:70%
And Tammy, it's hard to say,
00:22:34.086 --> 00:22:36.321 align:start line:10% position:10% size:63%
it hurts to say it but if
00:22:36.388 --> 00:22:38.457 align:start line:10% position:10% size:73%
we don't respond, if we don't
00:22:38.523 --> 00:22:40.225 align:start line:10% position:10% size:68%
maintain and in some places
00:22:40.292 --> 00:22:43.762 align:start line:10% position:10% size:58%
increase, those mothers
00:22:43.829 --> 00:22:45.597 align:start line:10% position:10% size:63%
will bury their children.
00:22:45.664 --> 00:22:47.432 align:start line:10% position:10% size:43%
TAMMY: They will.
00:22:47.499 --> 00:22:49.367 align:start line:10% position:10% size:68%
A couple of things that sit
00:22:49.434 --> 00:22:51.737 align:start line:10% position:10% size:68%
with me real heavy on a day
00:22:51.803 --> 00:22:53.238 align:start line:10% position:10% size:70%
like today when I'm watching
00:22:53.305 --> 00:22:56.308 align:start line:10% position:10% size:50%
a piece like that is
00:22:56.374 --> 00:22:58.110 align:start line:10% position:10% size:45%
the suffering that
00:22:58.176 --> 00:22:59.444 align:start line:10% position:10% size:55%
they're going through.
00:22:59.511 --> 00:23:01.379 align:start line:10% position:10% size:73%
These precious little babies,
00:23:01.446 --> 00:23:03.281 align:start line:10% position:10% size:73%
Randy, it's the hardest thing
00:23:03.348 --> 00:23:06.017 align:start line:10% position:10% size:70%
for me being there, watching
00:23:06.084 --> 00:23:08.754 align:start line:10% position:10% size:53%
these children dying.
00:23:08.820 --> 00:23:11.590 align:start line:10% position:10% size:70%
Their mothers are hanging on
00:23:11.656 --> 00:23:13.725 align:start line:10% position:10% size:30%
to dear life
00:23:13.792 --> 00:23:15.093 align:start line:10% position:10% size:48%
for their children.
00:23:15.160 --> 00:23:16.261 align:start line:10% position:10% size:33%
So that's why
00:23:16.328 --> 00:23:17.529 align:start line:10% position:10% size:50%
we're coming to you.
00:23:17.596 --> 00:23:18.797 align:start line:10% position:10% size:63%
I will never not be moved
00:23:18.864 --> 00:23:20.165 align:start line:10% position:10% size:53%
by a story like this.
00:23:20.232 --> 00:23:22.601 align:start line:10% position:10% size:63%
I will never not be moved
00:23:22.667 --> 00:23:24.035 align:start line:10% position:10% size:53%
by the fact that that
00:23:24.102 --> 00:23:25.637 align:start line:10% position:10% size:45%
I can do something
00:23:25.704 --> 00:23:27.506 align:start line:10% position:10% size:60%
and I must do something.
00:23:27.572 --> 00:23:28.774 align:start line:10% position:10% size:65%
So I'm asking you, please,
00:23:28.840 --> 00:23:30.075 align:start line:10% position:10% size:55%
would you do something
00:23:30.142 --> 00:23:31.276 align:start line:10% position:10% size:35%
along with me,
00:23:31.343 --> 00:23:33.245 align:start line:10% position:10% size:63%
along with all of us here
00:23:33.311 --> 00:23:34.546 align:start line:10% position:10% size:68%
that are desperately trying
00:23:34.613 --> 00:23:35.981 align:start line:10% position:10% size:68%
to get food to these people
00:23:36.047 --> 00:23:37.115 align:start line:10% position:10% size:58%
right now that need it,
00:23:37.182 --> 00:23:38.650 align:start line:10% position:10% size:43%
or they will die?
00:23:38.717 --> 00:23:39.951 align:start line:10% position:10% size:38%
It's so simple.
00:23:40.018 --> 00:23:42.254 align:start line:10% position:10% size:53%
For $30 you will feed
00:23:42.320 --> 00:23:43.455 align:start line:10% position:10% size:38%
three children,
00:23:43.522 --> 00:23:44.823 align:start line:10% position:10% size:53%
for $50 you will feed
00:23:44.890 --> 00:23:46.091 align:start line:10% position:10% size:35%
five children,
00:23:46.158 --> 00:23:47.325 align:start line:10% position:10% size:23%
for $100,
00:23:47.392 --> 00:23:48.660 align:start line:10% position:10% size:68%
you will feed ten children,
00:23:48.727 --> 00:23:49.828 align:start line:10% position:10% size:63%
for $1,000, you will come
00:23:49.895 --> 00:23:51.163 align:start line:10% position:10% size:60%
alongside us and help us
00:23:51.229 --> 00:23:52.564 align:start line:10% position:10% size:58%
feed a hundred children
00:23:52.631 --> 00:23:53.832 align:start line:10% position:10% size:43%
today, right now.
00:23:53.899 --> 00:23:56.034 align:start line:10% position:10% size:75%
So please, this is so serious,
00:23:56.101 --> 00:23:57.335 align:start line:10% position:10% size:60%
and I need you to please
00:23:57.402 --> 00:23:58.937 align:start line:10% position:10% size:70%
come alongside us right now.
00:23:59.004 --> 00:24:00.872 align:start line:10% position:10% size:60%
Go online or make a call
00:24:00.939 --> 00:24:02.073 align:start line:10% position:10% size:25%
right now.
00:24:02.140 --> 00:24:03.375 align:start line:10% position:10% size:55%
But even as Isak said,
00:24:03.441 --> 00:24:04.843 align:start line:10% position:10% size:53%
these are real lives.
00:24:04.910 --> 00:24:06.244 align:start line:10% position:10% size:58%
These are real stories.
00:24:06.311 --> 00:24:07.913 align:start line:10% position:10% size:70%
These are real children that
00:24:07.979 --> 00:24:09.581 align:start line:10% position:10% size:68%
are dying right now because
00:24:09.648 --> 00:24:11.483 align:start line:10% position:10% size:50%
of the lack of food.
00:24:11.550 --> 00:24:12.551 align:start line:10% position:10% size:55%
RANDY: But I also want
00:24:12.617 --> 00:24:13.718 align:start line:10% position:10% size:58%
to point out one thing,
00:24:13.785 --> 00:24:14.820 align:start line:10% position:10% size:63%
because there was one day
00:24:14.886 --> 00:24:16.021 align:start line:10% position:10% size:53%
in one of the clinics
00:24:16.087 --> 00:24:17.222 align:start line:10% position:10% size:45%
where a little boy
00:24:17.289 --> 00:24:18.456 align:start line:10% position:10% size:38%
didn't make it.
00:24:18.523 --> 00:24:19.558 align:start line:10% position:10% size:45%
His mother made it
00:24:19.624 --> 00:24:20.659 align:start line:10% position:10% size:45%
to the clinic, but
00:24:20.725 --> 00:24:21.793 align:start line:10% position:10% size:73%
it was too late, which is why
00:24:21.860 --> 00:24:22.961 align:start line:10% position:10% size:60%
we like to take the food
00:24:23.028 --> 00:24:24.362 align:start line:10% position:10% size:55%
out into the villages;
00:24:24.429 --> 00:24:25.530 align:start line:10% position:10% size:55%
that's a critical part
00:24:25.597 --> 00:24:27.199 align:start line:10% position:10% size:48%
of mission feeding.
00:24:27.265 --> 00:24:29.601 align:start line:10% position:10% size:70%
But they took the boy around
00:24:29.668 --> 00:24:30.802 align:start line:10% position:10% size:60%
outside the wall of that
00:24:30.869 --> 00:24:32.370 align:start line:10% position:10% size:70%
little compound into a field
00:24:32.437 --> 00:24:34.005 align:start line:10% position:10% size:38%
and buried him.
00:24:34.072 --> 00:24:36.708 align:start line:10% position:10% size:53%
I don't tell you that
00:24:36.775 --> 00:24:38.076 align:start line:10% position:10% size:45%
to manipulate you.
00:24:38.143 --> 00:24:39.277 align:start line:10% position:10% size:68%
I tell you that so you know
00:24:39.344 --> 00:24:40.779 align:start line:10% position:10% size:45%
how serious it is.
00:24:40.846 --> 00:24:42.881 align:start line:10% position:10% size:63%
But also so that you know
00:24:42.948 --> 00:24:44.282 align:start line:10% position:10% size:63%
when we say $30 will help
00:24:44.349 --> 00:24:45.584 align:start line:10% position:10% size:48%
feed three children
00:24:45.650 --> 00:24:46.952 align:start line:10% position:10% size:70%
for the next several months,
00:24:47.018 --> 00:24:48.687 align:start line:10% position:10% size:53%
that means something.
00:24:48.753 --> 00:24:50.589 align:start line:10% position:10% size:50%
Yes, if you can give
00:24:50.655 --> 00:24:52.724 align:start line:10% position:10% size:43%
a lot, please do.
00:24:52.791 --> 00:24:54.259 align:start line:10% position:10% size:73%
But if you can give a little,
00:24:54.326 --> 00:24:55.393 align:start line:10% position:10% size:45%
please do, because
00:24:55.460 --> 00:24:57.062 align:start line:10% position:10% size:38%
it all matters.
00:24:57.128 --> 00:25:00.332 align:start line:10% position:10% size:45%
Every life matters
00:25:00.398 --> 00:25:02.133 align:start line:10% position:10% size:63%
and you can do something.
00:25:02.200 --> 00:25:03.168 align:start line:10% position:10% size:65%
So please go to the phone,
00:25:03.235 --> 00:25:04.502 align:start line:10% position:10% size:50%
go online right now.
00:25:04.569 --> 00:25:05.604 align:start line:10% position:10% size:65%
Make the best gift you can
00:25:05.670 --> 00:25:07.405 align:start line:10% position:10% size:55%
because these children
00:25:07.472 --> 00:25:09.174 align:start line:10% position:10% size:33%
are worth it.
00:25:09.241 --> 00:25:10.675 align:start line:10% position:10% size:58%
But just know that it's
00:25:10.742 --> 00:25:13.912 align:start line:10% position:10% size:68%
a matter of doing something
00:25:13.979 --> 00:25:17.215 align:start line:10% position:10% size:48%
and doing it today.
00:25:18.216 --> 00:25:21.453 align:start line:58% position:20% size:60%
Right now, across
the continent of Africa,
00:25:21.519 --> 00:25:23.922 align:center line:58% position:50% size:65%
children are suffering,
facing severe malnutrition
00:25:23.989 --> 00:25:25.991 align:center line:58% position:50% size:20%
and even
death.
00:25:26.057 --> 00:25:28.126 align:start line:10% position:25% size:48%
With food reserves
critically depleted
00:25:28.193 --> 00:25:31.296 align:center line:10% position:50% size:68%
and many areas experiencing
devastating famine,
00:25:31.363 --> 00:25:33.732 align:center line:10% position:50% size:53%
we urgently need
to replenish supplies
00:25:33.798 --> 00:25:37.002 align:center line:10% position:50% size:50%
to keep feeding
the 350,000 children
00:25:37.068 --> 00:25:39.838 align:center line:10% position:50% size:55%
who are counting on us
every single day.
00:25:39.905 --> 00:25:41.873 align:start line:58% position:18% size:63%

Make the best gift you can.
00:26:51.643 --> 00:26:52.711 align:start line:58% position:10% size:38%
We need to hear

I mean, Blair's book

is such a blessing.
00:27:02.053 --> 00:27:03.054 align:start line:58% position:10% size:50%

you have to remember that
