Good morning, ladies. You are here with your push power ball Sharonda L. Hester. How are you guys doing on today? I am so excited and elated just to be on here with you guys today. This is just a little bit encouragement. Listen, we talked about the new year just getting started. One thing I want to remind you guys is get to the point that you crave God's presence. If you are looking for something, you want to increase your intimacy level with Him, you want to spend time with Him, you want to know what He has planned for your life, and you just don't understand, like, man, I have so much going on. I just really need that quiet time. Listen, when you start craving God's presence, you will make sure you have time. Think about it. If you're hungry enough, you'll get you something to eat. Listen, that stomach gets a growling, or you at work and you're trying to figure out they told you you couldn't have a break, but you like, man, I'm hungry. You will get you something to eat. Even if you leave in the house and you can't eat before you leave home, on your way to work, you're gonna go to a drive-thru of a fast food restaurant and you're gonna get you a dollar burger or a sandwich. You're gonna do something to make sure you eat because you are hungry. Think about it. Or even if you don't have enough time to stop, when you get to work, you are DoorDash, you some food, you will grub hub you some food. Why? Because you are hungry and you want to basically satisfy that hunger. It's the same thing with God. If you are hungry enough for God, you will find a way into his presence. We should be so hungry for the presence of God that we will absolutely we won't leave our beds without getting in his presence, we won't leave our house without getting his presence. We wouldn't tackle our first assignment of the day until we have spent time with him. You have to get to the point that you are craving God's presence. Listen, Isaiah 26 and 9 says, My soul yarns for you, O Lord, in the night. Yes, my spirit within me speaks you earnestly. For only when your judgments are in the earth will the inhabits of this world learn righteousness. Righteousness means uprightness and right standing with God. So listen, um, right now everybody know that we are in a pandemic. God wants righteousness from us, he wants holiness from us. And if you want to give him that holiness, if you want to live that life of uprightness or right standing with God, get to the point that you're hungry for his presence. You become hungry for his word, you become hungry just to be in his presence. Ladies, I want you to get to the point that you are craving God's presence. Think about it, ladies. When we're pregnant, we crave a lot of things. And when you are pregnant and you're craving, you don't care what you have to do to get that crave satisfied. And that's how I want you to become with God. I want you to start craving God's presence. Listen, ladies, be blessed. It might be a lot going on in the world right now, but if you're listening right now to this podcast episode, it doesn't matter what's going on. God has woke you up to see another day, another day you have never seen. Your grace and your mercy is renewed. God is giving you one more chance. He loves you enough, he thought about you enough, and he said, Hey, here's another 24 hours for you to get it right. Another 24 hours to start craving my presence, seeking my face. So listen, abide in him, and he abide in you. Look to God. Everything you need is in God's presence. Remember, in the pres that um in the presence of God, there's fullness of joy. So listen, get to his presence, fill your day with his joy, and be expecting a move from God. Remember, no matter what it looks like, feel like seem like you win in the end. You are an overcomer. Ladies, be blessed.
