Well, get ready for a breath of
new life.  Today Dr. Byrd speaks
00:00:03.33\00:00:08.04
on the topic “I'm Forgiven.”
 And now, here he is,
00:00:08.07\00:00:11.21
speaker-director of Breath
of Life Ministries, Dr. Carlton
00:00:11.24\00:00:18.48
Byrd. Pastor Byrd:  The Word of
God says, “And one of the
Pharisees desired him that he
00:00:18.51\00:00:23.95
would eat with him. And he went
into the Pharisee's house and
set down to meat.  And behold a
00:00:23.99\00:00:29.86
woman,” a what, everybody?
“a woman in the city, which
was a sinner, when she knew that
00:00:29.89\00:00:37.27
Jesus sat at meat in the
Pharisee's house, brought an
alabaster box of ointment, And
00:00:37.30\00:00:44.27
stood at his feet behind him
weeping, and began to wash his
feet with tears, and did wipe
00:00:44.31\00:00:49.48
them with the hairs of her head,
and kissed his feet, and
anointed them with the ointment.
00:00:49.51\00:00:55.08
Now when the Pharisee which had
bidden him saw it, he spake
within himself, saying, This
00:00:55.12\00:01:02.16
man, if he were a prophet, would
have known who and what manner
of woman this is that toucheth
00:01:02.19\00:01:09.60
him: for she is a” what,
everybody? “she is a sinner. 
And Jesus answering said unto
00:01:09.63\00:01:18.74
him, Simon, I have somewhat to
say unto thee. And he saith,
Master, say on.”  Jesus said,
00:01:18.77\00:01:24.85
“There was a certain creditor
which had two debtors: the one
owed five hundred pence, and the
00:01:24.88\00:01:31.15
other fifty. And when they had
nothing to pay, he frankly
forgave them both. Tell me
00:01:31.19\00:01:35.69
therefore, which of them will
love him most? Simon ananswered
and said, I suppose that he, to
00:01:35.72\00:01:47.94
whom he forgave most. And he
said unto him, Thou hast rightly
judged.  And he turned to the
00:01:47.97\00:01:58.48
woman, and said unto Simon,
Seest thou this woman? I entered
into thine house, thou gavest me
00:01:58.51\00:02:09.49
no water for my feet: but she
washed my feet with tears, wiped
them with the hairs of her head.
00:02:09.52\00:02:17.93
Thou gavest me no kiss: but this
woman since the time I came in
hath not ceased to kiss my feet.
00:02:17.97\00:02:25.54
My head with oil thou didst not
anoint: but this woman hath
anointed my feet with ointment. 
00:02:25.57\00:02:34.98
Wherefore I say unto thee, Her
sins, which are many, are
forgiven; for she loved much:
00:02:35.02\00:02:42.39
but to whom little is forgiven,
the same loveth little.” And
he looked unto her and said unto
00:02:42.42\00:02:50.77
her, woman, thy sins are
forgiven. And they that sat at
meat with him began to say
00:02:50.80\00:02:59.37
within themselves, Who is this
that forgiveth sins also? And he
said to the woman, Thy faith
00:02:59.41\00:03:06.78
hath saved thee; go in peace. 
Today I just want to challenge
you with two words: I'm
00:03:06.82\00:03:17.53
forgiven.  I'm forgiven. Lord,
bless us now for the next couple
of moments we pray in Jesus'
00:03:17.56\00:03:26.33
name.  Amen. In the text, Jesus
is in the home of the Pharisee. 
Now, the Pharisee had religion.
00:03:26.37\00:03:35.74
He understood the tenets of
religion.  He understood the
rules of religion.  He
00:03:35.78\00:03:43.22
understood the system of
religion. He understood even the
scheme of religion.  He
00:03:43.25\00:03:50.89
distinguished himself by strict
observance of religion. A
Pharisee was so self-righteous
00:03:50.93\00:03:57.40
that he saw himself as superior
in religion.  But before we're
too critical of a Pharisee,
00:03:57.43\00:04:02.50
let's admit it, all of us have a
tendency to be self-righteous.
There's nothing as dangerous as
00:04:02.54\00:04:08.51
turning yourself over to a room
full of church folk.  We have
rules for which we have no
00:04:08.54\00:04:15.12
scriptures. We have all kinds of
ideas and concepts of what is
appropriate or inappropriate. We
00:04:15.15\00:04:23.06
kill people over things that we
later find out are not
necessary, and even where we
00:04:23.09\00:04:29.33
have scriptures, we don't study
them in their proper context. 
Many times we just throw these
00:04:29.36\00:04:37.67
texts out after the fashion of
our fathers without questioning
the possibility that our fathers
00:04:37.71\00:04:44.68
could have been wrong. And so we
kill our sons, our future,
trying to be loyal to our
00:04:44.71\00:04:51.95
fathers, our past.  And our
future is compromised by our
commitment to our history
00:04:51.99\00:04:58.99
because we love our history more
than we seek our destiny. Be
careful that you don't
00:04:59.03\00:05:06.63
denigrate, castigate, demean and
criticize Pharisees, because
there's a whole lot of Pharisee
00:05:06.67\00:05:16.11
in a whole lot of us.  You see,
Pharisees know the rules of the
church. They know all the
00:05:16.14\00:05:24.49
regulations of the church, all
the policies of the church, all
the procedures of the church,
00:05:24.52\00:05:32.93
all the processes of the church,
all the statements of the
church, all the sayings of the
00:05:32.96\00:05:40.07
church.  And there's nothing
wrong with this.  Only when you
forget the Savior of the church.
00:05:40.10\00:05:48.74
The Bible says Jesus is invited
to dinner by a Pharisee in a
Pharisee's home.  Simon is his
00:05:48.78\00:05:55.85
name. He wants to know more
about Jesus.  But soon it
becomes obvious that you can't
00:05:55.88\00:06:07.76
count Simon as a believer but
rather as a skeptic trying to be
open-minded.  Jesus accepts the
00:06:07.83\00:06:15.20
dinner invitation. It's
appropriate for Jesus, a man of
God, to be seen with the
00:06:15.24\00:06:22.34
Pharisee at a Pharisee's house. 
But then the Bible says the
woman in the city--the Bible
00:06:22.38\00:06:29.75
says a prostitute, a sinner,
hears that Jesus is in a
Pharisee's house. She makes it a
00:06:29.78\00:06:37.83
point to go to the house to meet
Jesus.  What's this woman doing
at this house? She's not
00:06:37.86\00:06:47.20
invited.  She's not holy.  She's
not pure.  She's not righteous. 
She's been around the block.
00:06:47.24\00:06:56.85
People know her not by name but
by what she did.  She's not
important.  She's not
00:06:56.88\00:07:06.82
significant. She's not notable. 
She's not influential.  She's
the continual object of cutting
00:07:06.86\00:07:17.80
criticism and insults by the
wives of her customers.  She's
the example that many mothers in
00:07:17.83\00:07:27.18
town use to warn their daughters
of what not to be.  She's the
brunt of nasty jokes.  She's
00:07:27.21\00:07:33.52
shunned by the best people and
abused and used by the worst
people.  She's a mess.  How dare
00:07:33.55\00:07:40.42
she show up in a Pharisee's
house, and Jesus is in there? 
How dare she show up at a dinner
00:07:40.46\00:07:44.36
with religious people?  Or
better yet, how dare a person
like that step foot in the
00:07:44.39\00:07:52.70
Oakwood church?  How dare she
mess with our nice, clean, holy
institutional church with all
00:07:52.73\00:08:00.51
her mess, her drama, her
history, her ankle bracelets,
chains around her neck,
00:08:00.54\00:08:07.35
earrings, rings, tattoos, her
urban seductive disposition? Who
is she to walk up in here,
00:08:07.38\00:08:15.86
looking like that?  And that's
just like some church folk. They
want to keep the people out who
00:08:15.89\00:08:24.50
need the church the most.
Sometimes it's hard to get to
God because of God's people.
00:08:24.53\00:08:32.67
[Aud. reaction] But she comes
into this environment against
all odds, against all
00:08:32.71\00:08:41.82
possibilities, against all
probabilities.  She comes up
behind Jesus.  She knows that
00:08:41.85\00:08:52.19
according to the customs and
traditions of the day she
shouldn't be in the room.  A
00:08:52.23\00:09:00.07
prostitute in the company of a
preacher? It's not Simon, he's
not the problem, he's a
00:09:00.10\00:09:06.98
Pharisee. It's not Jesus, he's a
preacher. It's the woman.  She's
a prostitute, she has no
00:09:07.01\00:09:14.78
business here. For her, then, to
come into Simon's house is hard.
 For her to even show up is
00:09:14.82\00:09:20.16
tough. She's viewed as a sinner.
 One who conveys uncleanliness
by her very touch, almost as if
00:09:20.19\00:09:27.50
she has AIDS, HIV, syphilous,
gonorrhea, leprosy or some other
STD.  She knows that Simon is
00:09:27.56\00:09:35.14
not happy to see her in his
house.  She knows everybody is
looking at her with disdain.
00:09:35.17\00:09:41.64
Which makes me ask, have you
ever walked up on a group of
people and you knew they were
00:09:41.68\00:09:49.65
talking about you?  Have you
ever walked into a room and you
could feel the malice, the
00:09:49.68\00:09:57.06
meanness and the hatred toward
you?  Anybody know what I'm
talking about? It's enough to
00:09:57.09\00:10:06.63
make you back up, turn around,
shut the door, ‘cause you
don't need all of this. You see,
00:10:06.67\00:10:17.68
I've learned in life it's easy
to praise God in a room when
folk are smiling, when folk are
00:10:17.71\00:10:28.86
happy, and folk are not
excluding you.  It's easy to
clap your hands in church when
00:10:28.89\00:10:39.33
everybody else is clapping, but
it's hard to praise God when
you're hated, in a room when
00:10:39.37\00:10:46.68
you're talked about, when you're
shunned.  But something was in
this woman. Pushed this woman
00:10:46.71\00:10:51.28
beyond all that hatred. Pushed
her beyond all the shame. And
she said, “Talk about me all
00:10:51.31\00:10:58.75
you want.  But I got to see my
Jesus. Criticize me all you
want, but I got to see Jesus. 
00:10:58.79\00:11:08.03
Look at me funny all you want,
but I got to see my Jesus.”
Jesus, sweet rose of Sharon.
00:11:08.06\00:11:15.00
Jesus, lily of the valley.
Jesus, he's a way-maker, a
company-keeper, a bill-payer.
00:11:15.04\00:11:23.45
Jesus, I've got to see Jesus.
She has heard of his teaching.
She has heard of his gracious
00:11:23.48\00:11:31.92
words of love and forgiveness
and repentance, restoration and
healing. She heard him speak of
00:11:31.95\00:11:44.07
his Father's kingdom in words so
plain and compelling that she
can see herself as a child of
00:11:44.10\00:11:52.51
God again, full citizen of the
Kingdom of Love. Yes, she's
broken.  But she can see light
00:11:52.54\00:12:02.58
at the end of the tunnel. Her
condition is not her conclusion.
 She falls down at his feet. She
00:12:02.62\00:12:11.06
does not seek his hand.  She
does not try to look at him in
the eye.  She's not trying to
00:12:11.09\00:12:17.73
get his favor, but tears, the
Bible says, just begin to fall
down her face.  Each tear makes
00:12:17.77\00:12:24.71
a brown wet mark in the dust of
his feet until his feet are wet
with her tears.  And then she
00:12:24.74\00:12:30.71
lets, the Bible says, her hair
down.  She lets her hair go
free.  She kneels down and
00:12:30.75\00:12:36.18
begins to wipe Jesus' feet with
her hair. Her hair wipes his
feet after her tears have washed
00:12:36.22\00:12:52.37
his feet. The Bible says then
she begins to kiss his feet. She
then begins to pour scented oil
00:12:52.40\00:13:03.88
onto his feet out of an
alabaster box.  And once the box
is opened, everybody knows it. 
00:13:03.91\00:13:14.06
It's detected by everybody in
the room.  Where Jesus had
formerly been the center of
00:13:14.09\00:13:21.16
focus in the room, all eyes now
turned to the woman at Jesus'
feet.  She's weeping, she's
00:13:21.20\00:13:26.40
wiping, she is caressing his
feet with her long black hair,
kissing his feet with her lips
00:13:26.43\00:13:32.97
and pouring perfume upon him.
The very intimacy of her actions
appear to many of the guests as
00:13:33.01\00:13:43.65
shocking. Add that to her
reputation in the community, and
this is downright scandalous.
00:13:43.69\00:13:50.99
But this woman, this woman, is
sorry for the life she has
lived.  She's sorry for what
00:13:51.03\00:14:03.81
she's done. This woman is asking
for forgiveness.  She's asking
for pardon.  She's asking for a
00:14:03.84\00:14:12.78
new start. She wants to
surrender.  And all she knows
how to do is to let her hair
00:14:12.81\00:14:21.06
down, because she let her hair
down for so many other men that
were less worthy than this one,
00:14:21.09\00:14:30.93
that when she sees Jesus she
said, “If there were ever a
man that I would let my hair
00:14:30.97\00:14:47.55
down for,” I wish I had a
witness in this place. You see,
if you're going to do it for
00:14:47.58\00:14:57.46
anybody, you ought to do it for
Jesus.  Do I have a witness in
this place? You've gone after
00:14:57.49\00:15:08.40
your flesh, you've gone out for
people who love you and leave
you, forget you and forsake you.
00:15:08.44\00:15:19.41
But if there's anybody worth
letting your hair down for, you
ought to let it down for Jesus
00:15:19.45\00:15:28.99
Christ. Last thing, remember,
Simon is a Pharisee.  Simon is
religious. Simon is standing
00:15:29.02\00:15:42.00
over in the corner in his house,
watching all of this with a
frown on his face, watching all
00:15:42.04\00:15:52.38
this, mean mugging Jesus and the
woman, turning up his nose,
expressing his religious
00:15:52.41\00:16:02.82
intolerance to her relational
behavior. He even questions
Jesus' discernment.  The Bible
00:16:02.86\00:16:13.23
says, if he were such a prophet,
he should have known she was a
prostitute.  If he were a
00:16:13.27\00:16:22.74
prophet, he should have known
she was a prostitute. That if
Jesus knew who she was, he would
00:16:22.78\00:16:32.19
have stopped her.  The law said
she was supposed to be stoned.
But what Simon didn't understand
00:16:32.22\00:16:38.09
was that Jesus is omniscient,
which means Jesus is
all-knowing. Jesus knew the
00:16:38.13\00:16:44.00
woman was coming before she even
knocked on the door.  Jesus was
waiting all along. And today
00:16:44.03\00:16:52.57
he's waiting for a sinner to
knock on the door and let their
hair down. We stood up in church
00:16:52.61\00:17:00.22
and we act all holy.  But
everybody up in here is an
ex-something. Everybody has a
00:17:00.25\00:17:09.42
past.  And everybody has done
something in the dark.  I wish I
had a witness in this place. All
00:17:09.46\00:17:20.47
have sinned and come short of
the glory of God.  So don't
point a finger at somebody else,
00:17:20.50\00:17:27.61
but take a look at yourself in
the mirror.  The text says,
“Seest thou this woman?” 
00:17:27.64\00:17:37.65
You better tell somebody, you're
looking at me but you don't even
know me.  But this man, Jesus
00:17:37.69\00:17:46.33
the Christ, hallelujah, he sees
me and he knows me.  He loved me
when I was unlovable. He didn't
00:17:46.36\00:17:58.94
wait ‘til I got right to love
me. He loved me when I wouldn't
act right.  He loved me when I
00:17:58.97\00:18:08.58
didn't talk right.  He loved me
when I wasn't living right.  He
loved me when I was shacking up,
00:18:08.62\00:18:12.99
when I was shooting up.  He
stopped the car from crashing. 
He stopped you from dying.
00:18:13.02\00:18:18.99
Somebody should be dead right
now. Somebody should be strung
out right now. Somebody should
00:18:19.03\00:18:32.31
be in jail right now.  But if it
had not been for the Lord on my
side, where would I be?  And if
00:18:32.34\00:18:40.18
none of y'all, excuse my
southern slang, will praise him,
I will bless the Lord at all
00:18:40.22\00:18:45.35
times, and his praise shall
continually be in my mouth. I
know it was the blood.  I know
00:18:45.39\00:18:59.67
it was the blood for me, one day
when I was lost he died upon the
cross, I know it was the blood
00:18:59.70\00:19:12.58
for me.  Bless the Lord, oh my
soul, and all that is within me
bless his holy, create in me a
00:19:12.61\00:19:27.76
clean heart, oh God, and renew a
right spirit in me. One more
thing.  Notice Jesus, even
00:19:27.76\00:19:35.90
though Simon is looking at the
woman crazy, Jesus doesn't
linger on Simon's shortcomings.
00:19:35.94\00:19:44.85
Jesus doesn't sweat the small
stuff.  I'm getting to the point
in my life, I can't do drama. 
00:19:44.88\00:19:56.56
Are you hearing what I'm saying?
 You got to rise above that.
Okay, God bless you, thank you
00:19:56.59\00:20:09.20
for sharing.    [Aud. reaction]
Jesus doesn't linger on Simon's
shortcomings.  His hang-ups, his
00:20:09.24\00:20:16.54
self-righteous or
holier-than-thou spirit. Because
people who perceive themselves
00:20:16.58\00:20:23.45
to be holy are never great
worshippers.  You will never
worship truly God when you feel
00:20:23.49\00:20:28.89
like he ought to be happy that
you're here. Jesus turns to the
woman and he says, “Woman, thy
00:20:28.92\00:20:36.53
sins are forgiven.”  Thy sins
are what, everybody? Aud.: 
Forgiven.    Come on, thy sins
00:20:36.56\00:20:43.71
are what?  Forgiven.  Now, I'm
ready.  I am a sinner just like
you. I'm just a nobody trying to
00:20:43.74\00:20:49.78
tell everybody about somebody
who can save anybody.  And I
just stopped by to tell somebody
00:20:49.81\00:20:57.82
your sins are forgiven.   [Aud.
reaction] What you did last
night is covered by the blood. 
00:20:57.85\00:21:03.09
What you did last week is
covered by the blood. What you
did last year is covered by the
00:21:03.12\00:21:13.47
blood.  What you did twenty
years ago is covered by the
blood. You're forgiven.  I said
00:21:13.50\00:21:22.31
you're forgiven.  I'm forgiven. 
We're forgiven.  I know you've
slept around and fooled around,
00:21:22.34\00:21:30.69
but you're forgiven.  I know
you've messed around and played
around, but you're forgiven. I
00:21:30.72\00:21:44.67
know you talked about somebody,
but you're forgiven. I know you
gossiped about somebody, but
00:21:44.70\00:21:52.27
you're forgiven.  I know you
haven't given somebody the
benefit of the doubt, but in the
00:21:52.31\00:22:01.62
name of Jesus you're forgiven. 
I know you've doubted, I know
you have been unfaithful, but
00:22:01.65\00:22:08.52
you're forgiven.  I know you've
been negative, but you're
forgiven.   [Aud. reaction] I
00:22:08.56\00:22:14.76
know you've drunk something you
shouldn't have drunk, eaten
something you shouldn't have
00:22:14.83\00:22:53.03
eaten. You've even smoked
something you shouldn't have
smoked.  But guess what?  You're
00:22:53.07\00:23:12.55
forgiven. I know you haven't
been faithful in your church
attendance, I know you haven't
00:23:12.59\00:23:20.20
been faithful in your church
giving.  But you know what? 
You're forgiven.  So tell
00:23:20.23\00:23:28.30
somebody after you leave church
and take communion today,
criticize me all you want, but
00:23:28.34\00:23:44.62
I'm forgiven. [Aud. reaction]   
Laugh at me all you want, but
I'm forgiven. Point the finger
00:23:44.65\00:23:55.26
at me all you want, but today
I'm blood washed, I've repented
of my sins, and I am forgiven. 
00:23:55.30\00:24:02.97
And because I'm forgiven, I
praise him.  You don't know what
I've been through, but I praise
00:24:03.00\00:24:11.41
him. You don't know what I've
gone through, but I praise him. 
You don't know the costs of my
00:24:11.45\00:24:33.70
praise. You weren't there when
Jesus found me, when he wrapped
his loving arms around me. You
00:24:33.74\00:24:47.75
don't know like I know. Aud.
reaction] What he's done for me.
 But know this:  I'm forgiven. 
00:24:47.78\00:24:56.32
Is there anybody else in this
place today that's forgiven?
[Aud. applause]    Mary:  Ahhhh!
00:24:56.36\00:25:02.00
Therefore I tell you, do not
worry about your life, what you
will eat or drink, or about your
00:25:02.03\00:25:03.16
body, what you will wear.  Is
not life more important than
food and the body more important
00:25:03.20\00:25:06.13
than clothes? Look at the birds
of the air; they do not sow or
reap or store away in barns, and
00:25:06.17\00:25:08.60
yet your heavenly Father feeds
them. Are you not much more
valuable than they?  Who of you,
00:25:08.64\00:25:09.74
by worrying, can add a single
hour to his life? [Piano]  Mary:
 Hey, I'm doing well, I'm doing
00:25:09.77\00:25:13.71
well, just, you know, got some
stuff going on. Well, you know,
just some living situation
00:25:13.74\00:25:15.74
stuff.  Oh, I'm sorry, is that a
baby in the background? Oh,
okay, I'm sorry.  You guys had a
00:25:15.78\00:25:24.85
baby?  I didn't know.  Oh, this
isn't a good time?  Look, I
totally understand, definitely. 
00:25:24.89\00:25:29.02
Yeah, keep me in your prayers, I
appreciate it. Thanks.  [sighs,
tearful] God, haven't I been
00:25:29.06\00:25:34.00
faithful? Haven't I obeyed your
commands? Why is this happening
to me? Can you even hear me? 
00:25:34.03\00:25:39.97
‘Cause I don't hear you.  What
are you saying, God?  Why now,
why this? What did I do to
00:25:40.00\00:25:45.61
deserve this, God?  I can't
handle this. [song] I've made
mistakes and had to pay Mary: 
00:25:45.64\00:25:48.91
God, I need you right now.
[song] I've had some friends
that walked away Mary:  God, I
00:25:48.94\00:25:53.95
can't handle this on my own.
[song] But there's someone whose
love is real, Who cares about
00:25:53.98\00:26:00.79
the way I feel Every pain, and
erase every stain There's peace
when I call out your name
00:26:00.82\00:26:04.89
(Listen) Jesus, You're my
everything] Woman:  Mary, hi! 
Hey, girl, how you doing?  I
00:26:04.93\00:26:08.16
haven't heard from you all week.
 How have you been? Mary:  You
know, just regular. Same old,
00:26:08.20\00:26:11.33
same old.  How are you doing?
Woman:  I'm good.  I was
actually thinking about getting
00:26:11.37\00:26:18.97
my hair done, and since I know
you're the best in town, I
thought about you. Mary:  ___,
00:26:19.01\00:26:25.41
you're so silly.  I have, I have
a lot going on now, and this
just probably isn't a good time.
00:26:25.45\00:26:27.48
Woman:  Really?  What's going
on?  You okay, something wrong?
Talk to me, I'm your friend.
00:26:27.52\00:26:36.76
Mary:  I don't want to bother
you. Woman:  Mary, please, now,
you know, I got you.  I'm here
00:26:36.79\00:26:54.21
for you.  What do you need? 
What's wrong? What is this?  Oh,
my goodness, Mary, oh man. 
00:26:54.24\00:26:58.95
Girl, I'm so sorry.  But you
know what? God has answered your
prayers long before you even
00:26:58.98\00:27:01.58
asked. Mary:  I've heard that
before. Woman:  It's true. 
Well, you know, my brother, he
00:27:01.62\00:27:06.89
just left for college, and I got
an extra room, so you're welcome
00:27:06.92\00:27:10.29
to stay with me.
Mary:  Are you serious?
00:27:10.33\00:27:11.83
Woman:  Yes, I'm so serious.  We
could go, start getting packed
00:27:11.86\00:27:17.70
right now. Mary:  Oh, my
goodness.  Thank you so much.
00:27:17.73\00:27:22.10
Woman:  You're welcome!  God has
always got us, huh?  He is on
time, always on time.
00:27:22.14\00:27:30.25
Mary:  Yes.
00:27:30.28\00:27:33.48
Woman:  Well, let's go pack.
00:27:33.52\00:27:36.08
[song]
00:27:36.12\00:27:36.79
So whatever You take me through
00:27:36.82\00:27:38.75
I promise you
00:27:38.79\00:27:41.62
I'll spend my always with you
00:27:41.66\00:27:46.16
Man:  Jesus is my whole life.
00:27:46.19\00:27:48.00
Mary:  As I went through the
situation that I just
experienced, it really was ____.
00:27:48.03\00:27:51.87
Going through an eviction is
just really, really hard, and
the feelings of doubt and, um,
00:27:51.90\00:27:58.21
just really not feeling like God
was with me through that
journey, um, that really just
00:27:58.24\00:28:05.45
kind of overwhelmed me. Woman: 
I couldn't really understand
what she was going through, but
00:28:05.48\00:28:07.52
that part didn't matter.
