Well, I hope
you've enjoyed this time
00:00:01.36\00:00:02.70
as much as I have,
we've just been sitting
00:00:02.73\00:00:04.37
and
reminiscing, this is kind of,
00:00:04.40\00:00:06.37
the Lord's
brought this full cycle,
00:00:06.40\00:00:08.20
hasn't he?
00:00:08.24\00:00:09.57
Really has, I'm
sitting here thinking about
00:00:09.60\00:00:11.17
how back in early 2000,
00:00:11.21\00:00:14.28
you know, 2003 or wherever,
you really encouraged me.
00:00:14.31\00:00:18.01
You said, "Rachel, you
need to journal every day.
00:00:18.05\00:00:20.98
Draw your prayers to
God and write your story."
00:00:21.02\00:00:24.05
You said people can be
blessed by and I remember,
00:00:24.09\00:00:26.39
God was just starting you
out on this television ministry.
00:00:26.42\00:00:28.59
Amen.
00:00:28.62\00:00:29.96
And, you know, you didn't...
00:00:29.99\00:00:31.89
You specifically
didn't make this a preachy,
00:00:31.93\00:00:35.36
trying to hone in on the lesson.
00:00:35.40\00:00:37.50
Why?
00:00:37.53\00:00:38.87
Because I realized,
00:00:38.90\00:00:40.24
the Lord actually
spoke to me and He told me,
00:00:40.27\00:00:41.67
"I want each
person to get out of this,
00:00:41.70\00:00:43.71
what I want them to,
00:00:43.74\00:00:45.37
" every person's
experience is different
00:00:45.41\00:00:47.44
and what they need to connect
with in this story is different
00:00:47.48\00:00:50.01
and so I wanted to
leave it open with God
00:00:50.05\00:00:52.01
and I just thank God
for using a cracked pot,
00:00:52.05\00:00:55.18
a broken vessel 'cause He
says, "We have this treasure,
00:00:55.22\00:00:58.55
this infinite treasure
in our earthly vessels."
00:00:58.59\00:01:02.32
And I just feel
like it's a privilege
00:01:02.36\00:01:03.73
to be able to share my story
00:01:03.76\00:01:05.16
and I know that other
people have their own story
00:01:05.19\00:01:07.93
and I hope my story
will unleash theirs.
00:01:07.96\00:01:09.76
Amen, well, I'll tell you,
00:01:09.80\00:01:11.70
you let His beauty
shine through those cracks
00:01:11.73\00:01:15.24
and it is so true
00:01:15.27\00:01:16.97
that we overcome by
the blood of the lamb
00:01:17.01\00:01:19.77
and the word of our testimony.
00:01:19.81\00:01:21.31
Rachel, I'm so glad
that we had this opportunity
00:01:21.34\00:01:24.25
to sit down and talk again,
00:01:24.28\00:01:26.11
that you've shared
this with our viewers,
00:01:26.15\00:01:29.28
our prayer for you at home
00:01:29.32\00:01:30.99
is that the grace of our
Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ,
00:01:31.02\00:01:33.79
the love of the Father
00:01:33.82\00:01:35.16
and the
fellowship of the Holy Spirit
00:01:35.19\00:01:36.93
will be with you always.
00:01:36.96\00:01:39.03
