00:14 It always surprises me when God
00:17 takes somebody that is absolutely a mess 00:20 like when Heppy was talking about that at 13 he started 00:24 drinking and I am a drunk. 00:25 I had blackouts from day one. 00:27 It doesn't sound like he had a normal, even alcoholic history. 00:32 I mean he had immediately all that stuff. 00:34 He would go from job to job and started having kids at 19 00:38 years old and as he was talking I could just see his life. 00:41 Even when Janet came in and start talking about her 00:46 addictions and her life and her journey through recovery. 00:50 I am just saying God, You take all of us, all of us at 00:54 different stages and You really do speak into our lives. 00:58 You remind me of Jeremiah 29:11 and it says, 01:11 I am just thinking how incredible is the Creator God, 01:15 the God of everything that God spoke and everything existed. 01:20 He looks at each one of us and says, 01:21 I know exactly who you are. 01:22 We have had a lot of people on the program that I could 01:25 bring up to, but guy that was the Meth addict who shot 01:28 himself in the face and was strung out most of his life. 01:31 If you haven't seen that program, I mean he shot himself 01:34 trying to blow his head off and all he did was 01:36 blow his face off. 01:37 In dealing with that God came in and spoke into his life 01:41 and every single one of us, I was 10 years homeless and on 01:44 the street and all that stuff. 01:45 Every single one of us God said, first He said, stand up. 01:50 Stand up I love you. 01:53 He did not say to me stop using, He said stand up I love 01:56 you and I started to look at what would life look like 02:00 not been strung out on something. 02:03 Not being addicted. 02:04 We had Fred Stoeker, from Every Man's Battle with his 02:06 porn addiction and God said 02:08 the same thing, stand up, trust Me with your recovery. 02:11 Heppy when he said I was scared to death, 02:14 most of us were scared to death but God said stand up anyway. 02:17 Stand up anyway, and after standing us up, after getting us 02:21 to a point where we are brave enough to walk into 02:23 recovery, He says let go and let Me have all that. 02:26 Give Me all that, trust Me with your very life and the next 02:31 thing you see with most of us addicts, is that Janet and Heppy 02:36 are standing up in front of kids that are in school, 02:38 speaking live into them. 02:40 Changing a whole community which was always the hope of the 02:43 people that brought him into recovery. 02:45 I am a heroine addict in recovery with family that are 02:48 addicted and I am looking at the camera saying to people 02:51 all over the world stand up! 02:54 Don't be afraid, let go, let God have these addictions 02:58 because be done with them. 03:00 He wants to change our life, He wants to give you a hope 03:02 and a future, it's incredible. 03:04 See you next week and until then always remember that God 03:06 is crazy about you. |
