Speaker 2 (01:18):
Good evening, Good evening, and welcome to another segment of
dynamite conversation, thought and insight, knowledge and wisdom. Setting it
straight with Miss Gray and joining me tonight is one
of my fabulous co hosts, Miss Abner, Miss Abner, Miss
Trey Abner, Hey Trey Tray. How's it doing, how's it doing?

(01:39):
How's it going up there? Man? Going? Well? That is good?
Old Okay, yeah, okay, okay, Well we're gonna get this
conversation started tonight. Father God, we just thank you, we
praise you, We.

Speaker 3 (01:51):
Give you gluttle read, for you alone are.

Speaker 2 (01:54):
Worthy to be praised. Father, God, have your way have
your way, have your way. We were pent up all
of our sins, known and unknown. Those that have been burbled,
those that have been in our minds are lodged in
our subconscious and our unconscious, just conscious thoughts that we
know you would not be pleased. Father God, Please, we

(02:15):
are trying. We are trying, and I pray that you
see that some of us are really trying to get
things right, and then line it up. It's not about perfection,
It's about being in your righteousness, being in your right
place at the right time. Now. I know the world
is reeling from the death of the pope. The world

(02:35):
is wheeling from these deaths of groups of families and people,
whether it was on airplane crashes or earthquakes happenings. So
many people have died automobile accidents in groups of three
to sixteen. And God, just be with the families of

(02:57):
these people. I pray that some of them made their
way to you and you accompanied them for the rest
of the journey into heaven. Father God. We pray for
our president as well, and anybody that's in the decision
making position and role. Bother them, Lord, bother them so
that they will know right from wrong and exercise rightness

(03:21):
for the common good. I want my country back, Lord,
I want the United States back. And now we got
the lean and depend on knowledge and wisdom and understanding skills.

Speaker 3 (03:33):
Of each other. So open up those doors.

Speaker 2 (03:35):
Get our farmers in place, get our texts in place,
our it people in place, get our fashion people in place.
Those who can create and build and help to restore
our country for us. Because we are only known the
United States is only known as Land of the Free
and home of the brave. Nobody will ever take that

(03:57):
title or that description from us. I just asked the
little can we get back to that before Jesus comes.
We love you so much. We get behind the cross,
have your way. This is your conversation with your people.
We love you so much. Oh, this is when we
pray in Jesus' name. Amen and amen. So yes tonight, yes, God,

(04:18):
bless you. Hearing that the Pope has passed, everybody is
h I'm only in a shocked because you know you
couldn't help us. On every news station yesterday, him making
his rounds. Amen, thank you, miss the head and Stagia amen. Uh.
And we need all of y'all and need all our
viewers to be on tonight, please so check in. We

(04:40):
got roll call here, thank you, and and yeah, and
they're they're talking about, uh, you know, all of his
accomplishments and how he was different and everything else. And
I'm like, Okay, this is interesting. But while we shouldn't
focus on the past, we need to focus on the
present and the future because we don't know now they're

(05:03):
going through the process. And if you've not seen that
movie Conclave, you really need to see that movie. It
gives you a whole backside view of how that process
goes and how people are angry and how people they lie.
You know, it's very good. I want to I'm gonna

(05:23):
pull it up again and watch it. It was a
very good movie, very insightful and uh and and you know,
people lie, people deceive. People are into situations or impositions
because they're forced into it, they're voted in, or they're
trying to kill everybody that's in their way, so they
could be chosen. Sounds familiar, gonna sound and look familiar.

(05:48):
But yes, it was a great movie. And definitely please
go and see it or bring it up stream. I
know you can't go and see it, but you can
pull it up on stream, you know you on demand
or Netflix may have it, Hulu may have it. I'm
not quite sure. Don't quote me, but please look up,
look it up and check it out. People are hurting,

(06:10):
people are this is a time now. I know you
heard me in the prayer where I'm saying I want
my country back. I want my country back before I
have to leave and go to another country. And I
got some insight over the weekend, like I was saying
that so much. I want my country back. I want
my country back. And the lawyer, I said, are you

(06:31):
trying to tell me that I'm gonna be I have
to stay in the States until to make sure and
be one of those instrumentally helping the country to come back.
Because I started then I started thinking, and we're going
to get to our topic tonight. We're gonna segue right
into it, so just be patient.

Speaker 3 (06:48):
Hold on.

Speaker 2 (06:50):
But I got to thinking about the fashion industry. We
have the fashion industry in New York, and we have
one in Miami, and you don't hear much about one
in Miami, but we have one. But we don't have
one in Orlando. We don't have one in Florida. In Orlando.
I know it's the theme. You know, music is the theme,
rides and amusement and illusionment and illusionment and all that,

(07:11):
but we don't have one right here. And the one
and only fashion school that was opened closed years ago,
even before twenty twenty, and everybody was depending on other countries,
you know, because it was cheaper. And even on Shark
Take they talked about you know you oh, you're okay,
you're getting your stuff done. You know your package, your
product packaging person is in this place, or you know, yeah,

(07:34):
we're networking in China, Italy, we're networking in India. I know,
when I did my daughter's first handbag, the person that
go between was the designer was networking in India and
then that's where the world began to shut down. We
did get the prototype, but it's like, okay, God is

(07:57):
blessed I found there. For this new project, we're using
folks in New York and I'll bring up their names shortly,
but and they're on it. These people, I mean they
went to the hilt and getting the hardware and all
the terminology and stuff, and I'm so happy that they
and I had to ask them, you're not trying to

(08:17):
You're not you have no, You're not gonna be shutting
down anytime soon, are you. I just need to know
before I even get started with you all, because I
want you they're gonna be able to produce the handbags.
Once they've got the prototype, we kick it back and say, Okay,
we like it, let's go and we'll put our order
in and I'll be fulfilling what I promised to do,
which is on the back of the Weeping Warrior book.

(08:40):
I just wanted to keep my word to my baby girl.
And I you know, but I'm very happy that I
could talk to somebody in the States and they do
they produce right there. They've got the material, They've got
the chains, the hand you know, the shoulder pieces and
you know inside and I mean, I'm having a conversation
with these people on the phone, you know, and they're here,

(09:03):
They're in the United States. So we got to encourage people,
our kids who are artists, for singers, or who like
to sew, our kids who like to plant things, our
young people. Is this a product line your daughter has designed? Yes, yes,
We've got everybody we need here. Let's drill of oil

(09:28):
in the States. That's how the Bush family made their millions,
and they have been able to produce generational wealth for
probably the next six generations. And if they could find
oil in Texas and wherever else they've dug. We've got
oil here. We've got pipelines here. So now we've had
to circle back and come back to the United States

(09:49):
where we live again. We are the land of the
Free and home of the brave. So we need to
utilize everything and encourage and get our agricultural schools. Let's go.
Let's get the grants or the federal dollars to them.
I don't care who is talking about removing certain historical
things or whatever.

Speaker 3 (10:09):
We you don't worry about the black culture because we
are used to storytelling.

Speaker 2 (10:13):
So you can yank black history wherever you want to.
That's academically sound. Trust me, We've got enough folk who
know about culture and we know who's who. Okay, So
don't don't worry about that, don't be don't, don't don't
don't put your energy on things that really doesn't matter.

(10:34):
And I know that's going to be kind of hard
for some people.

Speaker 3 (10:36):
But when we can go ahead.

Speaker 2 (10:37):
And improvise, we are a culture that knows how to pivot.
We are a culture, that we are a people, not
just a black culture. There are people that Native Americans
other you know, Hispanic folks. Ain't everybody you are here
in the United States. It's time for everybody to pivot.
It's just time now. The shift is happening. You don't

(10:59):
need to be sitting at an idle conversation of about oh,
you know, we're not gonna be able to have the
food and the eggs are gonna If you're in an
unincorporated area, you could go and get you a little
wiring pen type thing. All you need is too little
chickens and babies and things. And you got to get
that infrared lighting that's sold on Amazon. And grow your

(11:21):
chicken grow your chickens. If you if I've got any
listeners here in Florida, grow your chickens, let me know
you got them. I'll go ahead and I'll partner with you.
And but those that chickens, add those chickens, add that chickens, hicks.

Speaker 3 (11:34):
They belong to me. That's the only thing. See how
simple that is. That's simple.

Speaker 2 (11:39):
Throw your vegetables, get your farmers out there. I mean
you could grow stuff. I mean Amazon has these tiars
type things that if you live in an apartment and
you've got a balcony, you could grow. Stop complaining. Complaining
is over. We're here, now, be watchful. I had a
young woman email me. I think I'm not sure if

(11:59):
I shared this last week. She was email me about
how the National Parks Service for Florida UH took out
Harriet Tubman and her attachment or her association with the
Underground Railroad. And I'm like what, And I said, well,
I'm gonna put this on my show. I'm gonna I'm
gonna broadcast this. I'm getting ready to bloat. You're not

(12:21):
doing anything underground Railroad, Harriet Tubman simultaneous done, It's already done.
You can't do nothing with that. You can take it out,
you can just remove their black historical books. But I
know her story, so I'll recite it. I'll become her
as a character. I'll be the cameo actor. Let's go.

Speaker 3 (12:39):
I'll have a whole podcast on her.

Speaker 2 (12:41):
Come on, now, you can't stop nothing that's already historically
has happened, not stuff you've made up. Sorry, I'm yelling
me down at that. Hell need do you?

Speaker 3 (12:54):
I don't know black history.

Speaker 2 (12:56):
I know my history. It's been in It's in the books.
So don't worry about take your mind off of frivolous
stuff that don't.

Speaker 3 (13:04):
Matter what they say.

Speaker 2 (13:06):
And you know who they are. They're struggling too, because
guess what they don't know if their job is secure,
those who are making decisions. I'm gonna tell you. By
the time I went to investigate it, I took her article.
I put it on my post on Facebook. Right then
I went back, but she emailed me back. She texted me,
but she go, well, don't post it yet until you
find O because I'm hurting. I'm hearing now they put

(13:27):
it back. I said, okay, sure enough, went to it
right right. I went to National Parks Service website and oops,
we've placed it back, not only Underground Railroad, but Harriet
Tully because there was a cry. There was a cry
out there and my god, here's the cry he here's
the travail. It wasn't even less than two hours, three hours.

(13:49):
It was already back. Okay, So I don't have to
put my foot in that one checked done, because I'll
drive to Tallahassee. I'll fly to Tallahassee and on the
court on the steps to the Capitol. I'll recite Harriet.
Tell me now, I got it. Listen, you can't stop history,
but we need to go back now. We need to

(14:09):
stop the belly achd. We need to stop. Oh what
we're gonna do? I get it. You're scared.

Speaker 3 (14:13):
I get that.

Speaker 2 (14:14):
But that is one thing God gives us. When you
believe in him and you're studying his word, You're learning
what he's saying. You're looking at his covenant, You're looking
at his promises, You're looking at how he blesses people.
You look how he criticized, and when people of God criticized,
it is only to make you better. Get over it.
You boooed, you messed up? That. Can we move on? Now?

(14:36):
We need everybody on the front line, because I'm telling you,
every need ends bowing and every tongue is confessing. I've
known people, I've heard it. I watch Amazing Race and
there are several coupled folk on there that represent the
homosexual community. And do you know how many times they ask, oh,

(14:56):
Jesus please help us on a show. Oh God please,
I say, every knee, every tongue. You're looking at this
big thing. No, he the Bible doesn't say that they
and everybody who do it will be converted. No, no,
he said that was a time will come. But every
need will bout, and every tongue shall confess that Jesus
is Lord. Who you calling? In a race? Who you calling?

Speaker 3 (15:20):
So you gotta look at the small things.

Speaker 2 (15:22):
Now, those of you who are visionaries, we see the
big picture. But you need to have somebody on your team,
somebody in your squad. We need to teach how to
live on us products made it in the US. That's right, misty,
that's right, because we're so far from it. Remember now,
back in the day, every country came to us, every country.
There's countries out there that owe us, have been owe

(15:45):
us forever. We're gonna get it back because we need
our money. We need it back because we need to invest.
That is a good thing. Congratulations to you.

Speaker 3 (15:52):
Oh, thank you, Charles.

Speaker 2 (15:53):
Good evening, Thank you, congratulations on getting Yeah sounds wonderful.
Thank you, MICKI.

Speaker 3 (15:59):
Yeah, I got to keep my word. And she doesn't
matter how she don't mind how many. So I'm gonna
let you all.

Speaker 2 (16:04):
Let y'all see it. Once we get the prototype and
once we get ready to put it on sale, so say, okay,
now save you little dollars. And they getting to it
real quick too, and they're doing a great it's gonna
be really pretty. And I get her opinion, of course
I do get her opinion. Guys, I don't want you
to think I'm doing this one. I ain't that bright.
But what would I buy? That's a whole different story anyway.

(16:25):
So what are you good at? What are you good at?

Speaker 3 (16:28):
What if you put on hold?

Speaker 2 (16:29):
Because it's like, there's no way I can do that.
Joeanne Fabrics just went out of business. Do you know
how many sales, how much everything was sixty to seventy
percent off? You could have win and got you want
to do quilts, you could have win and got the material.
We don't have it. We don't have that type of story.
I think the sewingever a place called the Sewing Studio.
They've got all kinds of stuff. Now they're talking sixty

(16:50):
to seventy and this is ran by older women, older people.
But what they're doing is they're like, okay, we're you know,
they're getting ready to do something. The way they're gonna
sell have hand material on sale, the gadgets on sale,
the sewing machines.

Speaker 3 (17:06):
They're doing the whole thing on sewing machines.

Speaker 2 (17:09):
What are you doing? What can you do? What can
you do? Write that book you wanted to write a
book on for kids and go There's plenty of places
that you could go and start a whole storytelling business
on your own. But this time, you don't ask for Oh,
I got to make seventeen dollars a high well, I
got to make twenty one dollars. No, no, no, give
me a love offering. Put to just put it right there.

(17:31):
You be surprised, You be surprised.

Speaker 3 (17:34):

to do it, that's fine.

Speaker 2 (17:38):
You know how I am. You know how we are.

Speaker 3 (17:41):
That's fine.

Speaker 2 (17:41):
We're not I'm not here to for this setting it straight,
is not here to force you to do anything. It's
that open up your mind. We're gonna discredit some myths
out there. We're gonna help you to think a little
deeper now. Because we've been kind of soft. We relied
on everybody else to feed us from the pulpit, so
TA teachers, professors, people in the sororities, people in the fraternities, governors, mayors, representatives.

Speaker 3 (18:10):
They tell us anything.

Speaker 2 (18:11):
Okay, I got two commissioners with really three They mean
what they say. They got receipts, they got pictures of everything.
They said that they would do everything, and they all
specialize in different things. But our community, that's what you do.
I'm involved the things that God has me involved. It's
just motivating other people. Once they get past this, it

(18:32):
just motivates them. They're like, Okay, one Verson, my Prothetic
Prothetic director, today, I saw him. There's been a minute
since I've seen him, and he's say. He just looked
at me and just shook his head because I'm telling oh,
this is what I'm doing now, and I'm doing this
and I'm doing that, and he sahun Belissa, who's on

(18:55):
our show last week, I mean she has blown. I
mean she put everything on. I looked my daughter and said, okay,
you're making your debut and I said what she said?
You know you're on her social media she's blasting you
and and and getting the description right. Come on, I'm
gonna help. I'm gonna help. But who gives me that power,
who gives me that strength, who gives me that knowledge?

(19:16):
It is God Jesus in the Holy Spirit. In that
order there is or was a joy and Fabuau East
Colonial and yeah, I'm not sure if it's still there
and they can see me with Yeah, I'm not sure

Speaker 3 (19:37):
That's you know that we did that for Party City, the.

Speaker 2 (19:39):
Balloons store, you mean, and that was really you know,
young people working in there at different hours and on
weekends and evenings. Party setting is gone.

Speaker 3 (19:48):
How are you gonna blow up the balloon?

Speaker 2 (19:49):
So sell them? But the ain't gonna come to you
already blowing up, So you're not thinking, why can't we
get in that? What's what's going on? And nobody's telling us.
They're not talking to us. They're talking to people who
they thought can help them, you know, financially, whatever. But
let me I'm here. I was at some place, Yester.
I said, I'm just trying to keep you open. I'm
gonna do everything I can to keep you open.

Speaker 3 (20:10):
And I met that. I met that.

Speaker 2 (20:12):
You gotta know who you are and what it is
that you want to do.

Speaker 3 (20:16):
What is it that you can do that can contribute?

Speaker 2 (20:19):
Prayer? Change his things done done? You try it for yourself.
You don't have to believe us. You try to live
this life yourself. Give God a week, give him three
days of your undivided attention of your purpose, being purposeful,
being mindful, being motivated to do one after God, run

(20:40):
after it.

Speaker 3 (20:41):
He will never disappoint you. He won't.

Speaker 2 (20:44):
And I'm gonna say this, even if you're not chosen,
you won't disappoint you. He'll still show up and let
you know who he is now.

Speaker 3 (20:51):
He says in his.

Speaker 2 (20:51):
Word, don't worship other gods. Don't have nothing Before me
and my cousin took me to Joanne and Party City
before they close, okay, and says your thing you They
had great sales. Yeah, good sales, right, missy. I mean yeah,
if you were missing a needle and some thread, you
ship up win because they had everything. Like I said,
they had everything, even sewing machines, all kinds of stuff,

(21:13):
everything you needed, all the material, all the decorational stuff
that was real unlike what dollar try has sometimes gotta
be sometimes that stuff break real quick. But they had
go ahead is Michael's.

Speaker 4 (21:27):
Is Michael's going out of business year of that?

Speaker 2 (21:31):
I wouldn't be surprised because not. I mean, but you
have your people, you know, you have it faithful for you.
I've seen them go in. I'm never gone.

Speaker 3 (21:37):
I haven't gone in Michael's in the year.

Speaker 2 (21:38):
Well. Actually, when my husband passed, I went in there
to get some little things to hold his ashes because
some of my daughter wanted his ashes and his oldest
son wanted so I went in there because the Lord
let me in. Then I was like, okay, oh god,
it's everything and the smell like lumbering here. Okay, I
don't know which way. I'm looking for. Something small, like
a little you know, cheury box or something that can wholesome,

(21:59):
say some dirt, I mean not theyr Jesus some people. Yeah,
you know what I'm saying. Anyway, you know, but I'm
not sure. I'm not sure.

Speaker 3 (22:09):
I'm hoping that those.

Speaker 2 (22:10):
Of you who like Michael's you're trying to keep them open,
you know. So you know, tonight we're supposed to talk
about dollars seventy tree, dollard tree.

Speaker 4 (22:21):
I think it's a dollars seven five now. I think
that's what I heard.

Speaker 3 (22:25):
Michael's is doing.

Speaker 2 (22:28):
Bobby Lobby too, is going on you saying, Misty, you
think they're closing or they're going they're still they're okay,
come back and tell us right in and tell us
I'm not sure. I mean, but I know every week
now they're doing okay, okay, good, okay, all right, people
try to keep them open. Now, so we're talking about

(22:50):
I know, now Satanic groups, unbelievers, atheists at an all
time high. Now they're coming out just like you know,
all the prejudice and discriminating folks came out, you know,
back during twenty twenty and you know, letting people know.
You know, people who were a part of the KKK.

(23:12):
You know, they're your attorney, and you didn't know they
didn't like minority people, they don't like women. They all
came out, Remember how they just were showing out in
public and everything. But we have people who you know
and everybody you want to God, God's word is very clear.
He said he can't serve it. He's a jealous God.
He's a jealous God. And I don't know if you

(23:33):
all have ever experienced being jealous or a little envious
of somebody and how that feels, that makes you feel
when you know. I know one time when my daughter
was saying telling me she I went to do a
parent teacher night and went to one of the teachers
and Ms Tansey and she's passed on now, but she's like, yeah,

(23:53):
she calls me mommy. I said, she call you? What?

Speaker 3 (23:56):
Wait?

Speaker 2 (23:57):
What? What?

Speaker 3 (23:58):
And I'm looking at belief what okay?

Speaker 2 (24:02):
So let you know I waited a while. You know,
I wasn't angry or anything. I said, well, why are
you calling that? She could because I could talk to
her mommy, you know, but you're mommy. You always gonna
be mommy. I say, okay, so you know what, but
I've been raising them. If you can't talk to me,
if it's something that's you know, you feel that, I'm
gonna go belistic over if you can find an adult
that you could trust, talk to them. Just don't hold

(24:22):
it in. Tell somebody. Talk to somebody and not your peers.
So I had to get over that. I wasn't jealous
of them. I was just really startled and taken aback
that you know that she would call somebody else mommy,
And I'm like, oh, so yeah, I've been there jealous
or not. Even I don't say it's jealous because I
don't like I didn't like to be like anybody else.

(24:44):
I didn't try to mimic you know, other folks ways
or whatever. But I would stand back and say, ool,
I wonder how they you know, how is it that
they're being you know, they look like they're doing really well,
and you know all of us over here are suffering
and I'm not doing as well. How do they? You know?

Speaker 3 (24:59):
But I know how you made your money.

Speaker 2 (25:00):
So you know, I come back out of that and
come back to my senses, you know, and stuff. But
there are people, there's there's certain groups of people, and
I just I don't know, God wanted us to talk
about this, and and you know, Paganism is one of
the groups that we're gonna talk about briefly. And I
know when I was teaching at the Twins High School,

(25:22):
uh they're Christian High School, I did I did World Religion.
I taught a World religion clans and that's when I
took the four top religions Christianity, Islamic, Judaism, and Muslim.

Speaker 3 (25:38):
Muslim and Islaman is the same way.

Speaker 2 (25:39):
It was like four of them and we did a
comparison on the board, and they all believed in giving
general you know, donating, giving generously. They all believed in meditating.
Some would call it prayer, others would call it, you know, meditation.
They all believed in feeding the poor, taking care of
the poor. Or there was only one that stood out

(26:03):
that had a man that had a record of healing people,
had a record of change it. It would crush your
heart the first time you hear your child calling them
yeah in the stasia, it does. It takes you to
another place. But she's following my direction, my encouragement. If
you can't talk to me, find somebody you could talk to.
I just don't want you to keep it inside. And

(26:24):
that's mean where my therapist hat because normally if you
keep it inside long enough, eventually something is going to
provoke you to come to me in a therapeutic situation.

Speaker 3 (26:34):
So talk it out.

Speaker 2 (26:36):
And that's a lot of things my clients did not
have is somebody that they can trust, even in their
own family. So that's how a lot of I always
have to go to the back. I always go through
the background. Everything starts in childhood. Everything starts at childhood. Everything, everything, well,
but I'm thirty eight years old and I just can't

(26:56):
seem that, you know, nobody wants to you know, know,
when to start. Well, when I was little, my aunt
promised to come.

Speaker 3 (27:04):
And get me and take me to the zoo.

Speaker 2 (27:06):
And she didn't come, and nobody said anything. And I
saw her years later and she never apologized. And I said,
so that happened when you were four or five and
you're thirty eight. Now, help me to understand that.

Speaker 3 (27:21):
Did you ever.

Speaker 2 (27:22):
Ask her aboud it? Did you ever say anything?

Speaker 3 (27:24):
No?

Speaker 2 (27:25):
No, no, she's my aunt. I'm like, so, why are
you holding onto this? And now you're in therapy over that?
So everything starts the childhood. We'll talk about that another time, anybody.
I wanted to talk to you about paganism, and it
was interesting because I don't I didn't know. I've known
about it for years, but you know, it's a word,
but I didn't, you know, get all into it. And

(27:46):
the dictionary says it's a person who's not religious or
whose religion is not Judaism, Islam, or especially Christianity. And
then there's a follower of another definition. Historically, our follower
of polytheistic religion as an ancient Rome or Greece. How
come we hold on the things like that? And how

(28:06):
can we let those things go? You have to.

Speaker 3 (28:08):
Realize is this helping me?

Speaker 2 (28:10):
Or is it hindering me?

Speaker 3 (28:11):
One question? Look at what you feel you're holding on to.

Speaker 2 (28:15):
Is this helping me to be a better person? Is
it growing me? Is it enhancing me? Or is it
hindering me? Because now I'm stuck. I can't get around
thinking about these thoughts. I can't get around what was
done to me. I can't get around. I can't move on.
And if something is hindering me, just like this was

(28:35):
where death could not go any further, and everybody I
know and I had to be very particular make sure
nobody hit me, nobody bumped into me, because my finger
could fall off, my whole hand could fall off, my
toes could fall That was a hinderance.

Speaker 3 (28:49):
I'm back, you know, I didn't even know.

Speaker 2 (28:52):
I had died twice at that time, even even though
I've been out, and then until I got my progress notes,
and I'm like, oh my god, this is hindering me.
Just gotta go. What's gotta go? And now all I
did was to be comforted. I said Jesus. However, I
look at the end of this, it's on you because
they're gonna see you, not me. And I'm taking that
head every time because people are looking at me like
oh oh. And then because I wear a mask when

(29:14):
I go up right and when they and I purposely
start a conversation, because they'll know I'm not disabled, I'm not.
I don't have a mental problem. I don't have a
neurological problem. I just got a physical Some limbs are lost,
some limbs are gone, but this I'm looking dead at you.
So don't judge this book by what you see. And

(29:36):
I'm very sensitive to that. So I'll say things and
my daughter just she'll just look at me like, oh,
she's not talking to us, She's talking to whoever's listening.
I say, yeah, come on, So no, what's hindering That's
gonna be your homework this week, guys, that's your homework.
What is hindering me? What is it that I can't
seem to get over? Who is it whatever? What was

(29:57):
done to me that I can't seem to get over?
And then once you write those out, then you look
at it is it's helping me? Am I a bigger person.
Am I better? Or am I crying every every other day?
Am I depressed? And is it making me smoke? Is
it making me drink because I think about it? Or
is it helping me? Oh? I am a better person,

(30:19):
even though I'm smoking right now, even though I'm you know,
I'm I'm drinking a little bit more. But I'm a
good person when it has nothing to do with you
being good. I don't want nothing to hinder That's why
I didn't drink and I didn't smoke and all that
kind of stuff, because I had enough cousins in the
family that did that. I didn't want nothing to hinder me,
nothing to get in my head. I don't need nothing
in my head to hinder me or get me confused.

(30:41):
Or it's foggy so I can't even be around smoke
because I can't see. I backed my car into a
glory to God, I backed my car into the parking
spaces so I can see where I'm going. I have
moved my car I had if I had to pull
in because I had to get out of folks way.

Speaker 3 (30:58):
I pull in and I'll sit right there until I
got it's clear it's clear, back out and.

Speaker 2 (31:04):
I back in.

Speaker 3 (31:06):
That's how I tell people, you know, my car, even
at my office.

Speaker 2 (31:08):
I back in in my garage.

Speaker 3 (31:10):
I'm back in.

Speaker 2 (31:11):
What was the assignment? Again? Thank you, missy.

Speaker 3 (31:14):
Identify what's hindering you? What is it that you just
can't get past?

Speaker 2 (31:19):
You can't you can't you just I keep thinking about it.
I should have would have cut her that that that
along that line. God, I should have said something to him.
Oh man, I should Oh I should have. Should I
have done that? That? What is it? That?

Speaker 3 (31:32):
What is it?

Speaker 2 (31:33):
God? I should have said that.

Speaker 3 (31:34):
You don't want I'm gonna go ahead.

Speaker 2 (31:35):
You know, oh oh oh, it's hindering you. You don't
even realize it because it's preventing you from moving forward.
It's preventing you from moving forward. And it is that. Now,
the second part of that is.

Speaker 3 (31:49):
Once you've identified what that.

Speaker 2 (31:51):
Is, what it is, who it is, what you've made
up in your mind. Now, if you've got to issue,
here's a sidebar. If you got an issue with an
individual not losing any sleep over this, if you not
tell them, you know what, Hey, Trey, I was just wondering,
you know, I know that I didn't I thought it
was supposed to come through doing something.

Speaker 3 (32:10):
But are we good?

Speaker 2 (32:12):
I check it with my spiritual how came we realize?
And at Stasia you just write it down you when
you go back in your quiet time. We'll talk about
paganism another time, because this is what's important, saying right
over to see how God does it.

Speaker 3 (32:25):
He knows what y'all need.

Speaker 2 (32:27):
He knows what y'all need. And I think it's stuff
that just bothers It's stuff that just bothers you. It
stands out, especially.

Speaker 4 (32:34):
If it's something that has occurred a long time ago,
but it's something that just really bothered you, you know,
whether someone disappointed you, or whether something didn't.

Speaker 2 (32:46):
Occur and you thought it should.

Speaker 4 (32:48):
And if it's something that steadily coming out and you're
steadily talking about it, I think that's what you're talking about.
It's great just to those are the things that hinder
you because if it's.

Speaker 2 (33:00):
Things that like that, and I note.

Speaker 4 (33:01):
She'll probably touch on it more, but I you know,
I don't know how we're going.

Speaker 2 (33:05):
And come up. Yeah, yes, Charles, that's what it comes.
It's large to your subconscious. That's the only part of
our brain that is not friendly at all. Your mind
is not friendly at all, but it holds everything. Go ahead,
tray and I.

Speaker 4 (33:19):
Think too at one point, maybe miss miss Gray is
if you look at it. I think some people hold
on the stuff because of the disappointment, especially if it's
something that was done to you. It was the disappointment
from a person who violated or disappointed you that you thought,
why me?

Speaker 2 (33:37):
I thought we were at a better place. I thought
you know you love me. I thought we were friends.
I thought we were here.

Speaker 4 (33:44):
You know, it's all those things that could that could
bother you subconsciously and just when you think about it,
when it just services quite frequently or services at all,
you know, those are some things that maybe.

Speaker 2 (33:58):
Ours, yeah, but other character it's things it instantly makes
you want to cry or instantly makes you take you
from zero to one hundred just thinking about it, just
thinking about it. My second marriage? How dare you cheat
on an with another woman? And not just one two,
but three and four? And how dare that trick?

Speaker 3 (34:19):
Part my expression?

Speaker 2 (34:20):
Get on Facebook and talking about I can't believe how
mean she is you talking to the wife, how mean
she is because she's gonna cremate him, little girl, And
all I can do is throw scripture at her on Facebook.
Just through scripture, Just through scripture.

Speaker 3 (34:36):
I'm the wife, who are you talking to?

Speaker 2 (34:38):
And of course, if you're going through disappointment in a
relationship with another, with you with your man, or you
with your lady and they've hurt you, I never understanding
why mankind does that while they going cheat. But guess what,
It's been happening since Old Testament, which tells me nature
is DNA. It's everything. People make choices, I said. I

(35:01):
remember I was just saying this earlier today. And I
remember my husband brought the twins back. We were separated
and long before you passed, and I asked him, I said, Barry,
do you think we can get back? Are we getting
back together? What we did?

Speaker 3 (35:12):
What's on your mind?

Speaker 2 (35:13):
Well, I said, see when y'all sing to me, y'all
y'all try to make up stuff I don't well, or
how you doing where I'll walk away from you just
singing and we just answer the question.

Speaker 3 (35:26):
He said.

Speaker 2 (35:27):
I said, you know what, say no more? You don't.
You don't fear God, so that's why you cheat. And
plus it's in your DNA because your daddy did it,
your grandmama did it. I get it, but I fear
him and I can't go and even have a conversation
with a man because I am a married woman. That's
just who I am. So I'm gonna go ahead and
file for divorce. You'll be served, They'll find you. Someone

(35:50):
is not always easy to recognize. No, but missy comes.
Sometimes you got the blinders on. You don't want to
see it. You may want to write things down and
go over what you write to what you do. You may, yeah,
you write it down, but this.

Speaker 3 (36:01):
Time it's going to be different.

Speaker 2 (36:03):
You're not just writing it in your journal, in your diary.
You're not just writing it down because you're in a
class and they tell you to do this and you
need to write a paper on the most hurt thing
you've ever been through.

Speaker 3 (36:14):
Glory to God.

Speaker 2 (36:15):
No, this time is for real and this time your
life depends on it. Now, how do you feel about that?

Speaker 4 (36:21):
And especially if it affecting your mood or you know,
a bad affect on you. And you know because sometimes
you you know, think about abusive relationships or grief and
lost you know, if you lost someone, you know, that
stuff really can sting, and then that could be something
that can hinder you so I'm just throwing some hints I'm.

Speaker 2 (36:42):
Not telling right now. And some people, some people get
angry at God, especially if.

Speaker 4 (36:51):
Somebody you know, I you know, heard of that, and
so why did you take that person from me?

Speaker 2 (36:56):
Or why did I lose this person? This was a
good person.

Speaker 4 (36:59):
And so if it's hindering because you think about it
all the time, it could affect your mood. And if
it affects your mood, that's that's the time to talk
with someone. Talk it out, somebody that you trust. I
wouldn't say go share it with every person, because everybody
doesn't have your best interest. But if there's someday somebody
that you really trust to talk about things that are

(37:19):
bother you, just talking out, just process it, you know,
that's you know in therapy. You know, I'm always I'm
a proponent for for therapy. But if you're not there yet,
find someone you trust.

Speaker 3 (37:32):
You need to be there.

Speaker 2 (37:33):
You need to be there. If you're over the age
of eighteen, you need to be there by now. Because
all these things you're trying is not working. Relationships are
not working. Why do I keep attract I keep hearing that,
Why do I see attract the same person that was
like my father. Why do I attract the same person
and these are people who are molested, Let's go there,
Let's go there. But let's about family members. Let's go there.

(37:54):
Why do I keep attracting the same type of person
that I was that took my innocence away?

Speaker 3 (38:00):
Call it what it is. That is not right, that's.

Speaker 2 (38:03):
Not legal, that's not spiritually legal. That's no. There's a
place called hell for those people. I don't care if
they live in it. It look like they live in large.
They're not. It's gonna it's following them around. If you've
done something to somebody innocent, you've stolen money from somebody,
and okay, sidebar, you've loaned money. In my eyes, I

(38:24):
loan you some money. You say you're gonna pay it back,
You don't pay it back. You try to ignore me.

Speaker 3 (38:29):
You stole your thief, simple, lit't.

Speaker 2 (38:31):
Look up on a thief. Need to pay attention to
be in the moment and be aware of your feelers
at the time, and write things down or speak it
on your phone recorder.

Speaker 3 (38:40):
Go over at the end of the day.

Speaker 2 (38:41):
Great, mickey, there you go, and you go back and
make sure you change the title of it because it's
all a bunch of numbers. Put today's date on it
or whatever, and put number one, number two, whatever. Make
sure you go back and identify it, rename it, and
then you make a habit of going back checking the recorder.
What if I said, let me listen to this now
that I got my paper, my pen? Oh oh wow,

(39:01):
I didn't know I forgot Uncle Frank.

Speaker 3 (39:04):
Oh wow.

Speaker 2 (39:05):
Yeah, he did say that on in my.

Speaker 3 (39:06):
Case, Uncle Fred, every time I see you, you getting bigger.

Speaker 2 (39:10):
And I waited till I was eighteen because you don't
talk back to your elders. And he try to get
off that couch to get all know what he's gonna
do to get what you're gonna hit me? In front
of my parents. My father had a double barrel shotgun
next to the bed. Really, I'm his princess. But I
have to say to him, well, at least I got
a high school diploma out of all of those nine
don't You're nine children don't.

Speaker 3 (39:31):
And I had to get out the way.

Speaker 2 (39:33):
But he never said that to me again. He never
said that to me again. Well, sometimes to set them straight.
It's great, just one time, but it's time to clean
it all up. Now, guys, you've been with most of
you've been with us a long time, so it's time
let's clean it up now, because we can't go into

(39:53):
another moment with the same question, or how do I
do this? No, no, no, we Pretty soon God's gonna
quiet his profits down, He's going to quiet the teachers
down and let the word. There's some things in out
there that's got to play itself out and we can't
be a part of it. All we can do is
watch it. So let's let's make a country conscient. Is
just effort to yourselves, a promise to yourself. Tonight on

(40:16):
the twenty first of April at seven forty five pm.
I want to change. I want to change. I want
to be set free, and now I know there's only
one way.

Speaker 3 (40:30):
To do it.

Speaker 2 (40:30):
Because Confucians can't help you. Muhammad can't help you. Buddha
didn't help you. Y'all know y'all got the books. I
know you got the books. I learned so much listening here.
Thank you. I love you on the stage, Thank you
so much. That's that's what we're here for. All those
other little gods, the wind, the fire, they can't help you.

Speaker 3 (40:49):
You see what fire does.

Speaker 2 (40:50):
Every state is on fire right now, and everybody we
are on the news is talking about red everywhere because
we're not getting any rain. But we need to be
doing side. Let's pray for rain. Listen, Lord, can you
please make it rain. We need rain. The grass needs rain,
the animals need rain. We're getting ready to be agricultural again.

(41:10):
We're getting ready to be industrial again. But we need rain.

Speaker 3 (41:14):
And we don't want fake rain. See the cloud rain.

Speaker 2 (41:17):
We need your rain. Lord, stand in agreement with us tonight.
We need rain. And you know what the roads that flood,
so don't go down those roads. Get ready to plan.
It's raining here, okay, rebel said. And when Louisiana, Mississippi,
where you're at, it's raining there. We need rain. In Florida,
we need rain. In Mississippi, we need rain. In California

(41:37):
we need rain. So Lord, can you please make it rain. Please.

Speaker 3 (41:42):
We won't complain, we won't complain.

Speaker 2 (41:44):
But let it rain.

Speaker 3 (41:45):
Please make the decision now, make the decision.

Speaker 2 (41:49):
Now. Stop lying to yourself because you're not gotten through
it yet. You can't go around it. And if you
be honest, once you look at those notes, you hear
that recording. This has been controlling my life all my life.
That's why I used to ask my clients. They're like,
oh my god, I did what you told you know,
I did the homework about it, and I said, well.

Speaker 3 (42:08):
How do you feel now?

Speaker 2 (42:10):
Because some of you been wearing it for so long,
it's become a second layered skin. You don't know the
difference between you and what had happened. And you can't
even see a brighter future. The light's been shining and
you can't even see it because you're still stuck. Become unstuck.
That's your homework. And when we come back next week
we will talk about that. We'll stay right there, We'll

(42:31):
stay right here. I'm praying for each and every one
of you, even those of you who are watching and
you didn't sign it. God sees you, not little gods,
not dadchies, not witchcraft stuff. God sees you. And it's
not a mistake that you're watching us and you stayed
with us.

Speaker 3 (42:50):
You stick with us.

Speaker 2 (42:51):
Come on, now, you gotta change, You gotta want better
for yourself. I don't care. My parents were not rich
by no means. They relied on getting credit cards and
stuff like that. God helped them and as they're dying.
I had to get that, get that, and thank goodness,
I just sent the obituary, the death certificate and a
letter the estate. There is no estate, remove the debt,

(43:14):
and please send it back to zero debt under that name.

Speaker 3 (43:17):
Thank you, Misty, we love you.

Speaker 2 (43:20):
Thank you. It's real and we've lived this. We've lived
it or we're living it now. I had to be honest.
I got I want to live. God brought me back
for a reason. I don't want to be short termed.
The other day I went to a new practitioner and
I didn't want to tell him, and you know, I
can't lie, and I didn't want to. He's asking doing

(43:40):
his assessment and I'm like, and that was eating me
up in the room, eating me up. And I said, Doc,
can we circle back to this question? He said sure,
he was doing his own dictation right there. He stopped,
started to looked at me, and I confessed. He said,
no problem. Now watch God real quick.

Speaker 3 (43:59):
Here. It was so that's something that.

Speaker 2 (44:00):
He contacted another you know, put in the order for
a certain test. Those people three hours maybe are three
hours later emailing me saying, you know what you've already
We can't do it until next year. Come on, now,
come on now, anyway, that's our time. We go. Now,
you got your homework. We'll see you next week, same time,
same station. We're gonna start, start the show off with it. Y'all.

(44:21):
Be blessed, We love you, We need the rain.

Speaker 3 (44:24):
Be safe.
