The story behind the idea
Summer and I were talking this morning about how I have to be careful with that. You know, some people go to the office all day and it changes the dynamic. Don't let that be an excuse for poor sequencing and slamming so many things together that there's no spacing.
What stands out
If you think about that in a lifetime sequence, and then you get up on a Wednesday morning, like make sure that the things you want featured in your life get attention today. You're gonna say, Well, that's not possible because of everything.
Why it matters
Gotta get rid of the stuff that's getting in the way of the mission. SPEAKER_03 28:20 Yeah, I mean you basically went ri right back to values clarification, and really what you're talking about, the most important value is that that idea of God's mission for your life. In other words, being the the person that God wants you to be. Uh part of that is is part of that is who you are, and in other words, developing character, and part of that is what you do.
A faithful way forward
I think that the the Bible is repeatedly trying to tell you to unconditionally love every person as made in God's image and to feel hope for every person. If your interaction with them is based on your love for them and not just something about yourself, then it'll it'll change everything.
Put it into practice
Just change my heart, like tenderize my my spirit towards anybody, and maybe that's maybe that's what I need to learn. SPEAKER_03 47:13 We didn't talk very much about this, but just for a moment.
