Speaker 1 (00:00):
James for you. Yes, I'm still here. He's here.

Speaker 2 (00:03):
He's here, he's here, and he's got a word.

Speaker 1 (00:06):
Yes, it is sid for today's words. I'm excited. Family, listen.

Speaker 3 (00:09):
Gratitude produce his growth, and I'm gonna say it one
more time. Gratitude produces growth. He may say, James, what
are you talking about? Well, if you remember in John
chapter six, Jesus took the lows. He's getting ready to
feed the five thousand. The Bible says he took the loaves,
and when he had given thanks, he distributed them to
the disciples. This is what I love. He didn't have enough,
but he still gave thanks. The two loaws want enough

(00:30):
to feed the five thousand. But even with not having enough,
he still found a way to be thankful. Before the
miracle ever happened, Jesus did something so simple. He just
gave thanks. He didn't wait for more to be grateful.
He didn't wait he had enough to be grateful. He
gave God thanks for what he already had. Here's a lesson.
Thanksgiving isn't a reaction, it's a seed. Gratitude grows when

(00:52):
you give thanksfulness to God, when you thank him for
the little you're proven that you can be trusted.

Speaker 1 (00:57):
With so much more.

Speaker 3 (00:58):
We always say, if you could be faithful of few things.

Speaker 1 (01:00):
God will make your ruler over many.

Speaker 3 (01:02):
Some of us are praying for increase, but God is saying,
can you appreciate the fragments first before you.

Speaker 1 (01:07):
Get the increase. Jesus is blessed.

Speaker 3 (01:09):
But it wasn't enough, and it became so much more
than enough, And that's a challenge.

Speaker 1 (01:13):
For all of us. That's the power of a grateful heart.

Speaker 3 (01:16):
Gratitude takes what's small and puts it in the hands
of a big God. So whatever you thank God for multiplies.
I don't think y'all heard me. I said, whatever you
thank God for it multiplies. Even if you don't feel
you have enough, thank Him for what you have and
watch God stretch it and in the words of the
Chris Tucker, Mama, make it enough.

Speaker 1 (01:34):
Make it enough.

Speaker 2 (01:34):
Come, Oh Jesus, that's a word.

Speaker 3 (01:38):
That's a word gratitude produce his growth. I need I
need to remember that myself too, when God gave it
to him.

Speaker 1 (01:44):
Like God, I gotta.

Speaker 3 (01:45):
Stop complaining about what I don't have and just start
thanking you for what Jesus took Those two, thus five
lows and say Lord, I thank you. And then God
made a stretch. He gonna make a stretch if you
could just be thankful for what you have come, Oh.

Speaker 2 (01:57):
Jesus, that's your word of the Hey, come on, James Fortune,
part I am Sherry Mackey.

Speaker 3 (02:05):
And you can send love off for and just we'll
give him cashie out the fifth.

Speaker 1 (02:09):
He's a boy, James Fortune,

Are You A Charlotte?

Are You A Charlotte?

In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
