Speaker 2: me my trustee co host. I'm about to say partner
Speaker 2: in crime, but it's partner in Christ. I love to
Speaker 2: do that. Maybe partners in Crime another day. No, I'm kidding,
Speaker 2: but today on Zoom with Me is the lovely Angella.
Speaker 2: How are you Angella? How are you doing?
Speaker 3: Name goodie the year? I'm not too bad And I
Speaker 3: say not too bad, And I say that mainly because
Speaker 3: today it's not necessarily in the best stead. I'm gonna
Speaker 3: be completely honest. Is that possibly gonna set of day?
Speaker 4: Yeap?
Speaker 3: Mainly actually because this week I actually had a teeth
Speaker 3: taken out, So I actually feel in pain this week,
Speaker 3: and you shu have had no problems with my teeth,
Speaker 3: and I'm sure nobody can be interested in my teeth stories.
Speaker 3: But the pain was ridiculous. I mean, it was painful
Speaker 3: before I had taken out that oh something's going on there, letty.
Speaker 3: I managed to get an appointment, got the tooth taken out,
Speaker 3: and then this week, my jaw, my head, my face,
Speaker 3: it's been pinful and it's not kind of it's a
Speaker 3: weird sort of pain. It seems just like it's it
Speaker 3: feels like it's quite deep. I think it's just internal
Speaker 3: and just achy. But it has impacted my week greatly.
Speaker 2: So I'm saying I think we can all relate.
Speaker 3: So yeah, It's been a bit of a interesting, interesting week.
Speaker 3: Today didn't really go to plan as I wanted it to,
Speaker 3: so I just kind of sat so, you know, but
Speaker 3: here we are. I'm really grateful for the sun which
Speaker 3: has been out today and I've been able to sit
Speaker 3: out knit and enjoy that. So one of our random
Speaker 3: summer days, but kind of a sunny day that you'd
Speaker 3: expect in August because this is the summer, you know.
Speaker 3: I managed to catch up with church obviously online. I
Speaker 3: guess that's the beauty of being able to visit different places.
Speaker 3: So I was kind of you know, church hopping in
Speaker 3: that respect. And it was an International day over at Ballam,
Speaker 3: so it would be good to see, you know, just
Speaker 3: how diverse our congregation is and you know, different different
Speaker 3: nationality whom people were taking part and stuff. I even
Speaker 3: made a flag, we believe that. How I didn't get
Speaker 3: to actually wave it anywhere at church, but.
Speaker 2: When we all get to.
Speaker 3: Jamaica and Saint Kits and them as well. But yeah,
Speaker 3: but all in all, you know, God is good at
Speaker 3: the end of the day. And whilst I may not
Speaker 3: have had the best of days and best of weeks,
Speaker 3: I'm grateful to be here. Yeah, all good in that respect.
Speaker 2: So yeah, I'm still out from your toothache story. It
Speaker 2: has to be one of the worst toothaches I ache.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I was saying that toothache can be kind of like.
Speaker 3: I've never had a child, so I've never gone through childbirth.
Speaker 3: But they're saying it's almost as bad as bad. I
Speaker 3: can't testify to that necessarily, but I.
Speaker 2: Should be able to. But it's been so long ago.
Speaker 3: If you asked me.
Speaker 5: On the day, no, I can't.
Speaker 3: I'm the whole other level. But I think I've never
Speaker 3: really had I can't say over the years, I've had
Speaker 3: a lot of tooth so, you know, and I I
Speaker 3: don't think I have a fairly high pain for sure,
Speaker 3: but maybe not.
Speaker 2: Well, there's always the one, isn't it. It's always the one,
Speaker 2: Just thinking. I remember when I had my son, people
Speaker 2: used to say that, oh, because I was like, I'm
Speaker 2: never having another You crazy? What doing this again? Absolutely not?
Speaker 2: And I remember people used to tell me no, no,
Speaker 2: no worry, You'll forget and the love and the joy
Speaker 2: and all that, and yeah they're right, but still I'm
Speaker 2: not going back. Right. That's that dusted done, moving on
Speaker 2: swiftly Petro. Nice to have you on. We weren't sure
Speaker 2: if you would join us, and you're probably not sure
Speaker 2: if you're joining us for the entire program. But it's
Speaker 2: good to see you. You were out last week. We
Speaker 2: missed you and we know the reason why. I'm not
Speaker 2: sure how much of it you lot to share today,
Speaker 2: but our hearts and prayers remain with you and your
Speaker 2: family at this time. How are you.
Speaker 5: Good? Afternoon? Talking good? Everybody welcome to talking like.
Speaker 2: Forgive it.
Speaker 5: Uh crazy. A couple of weeks, as you mentioned, I
Speaker 5: had a bereavement h a couple of weeks ago. My
Speaker 5: youngest brother was found unresponsive and in California and they
Speaker 5: couldn't revive him, so unfortunately he passed. So we've been
Speaker 5: dealing with that for the last couple of weeks. Comes
Speaker 5: in waves. I would say this, it was weird that
Speaker 5: we did that grief and he so bron just about
Speaker 5: a month before, a couple of weeks before. Because that's
Speaker 5: kind of helped me, and it also helped me. It's
Speaker 5: helped me not to snap at people. That's what I say.
Speaker 5: They have good intentions. Let me say this, they have
Speaker 5: good intentions, but you know they remember it was laughing
Speaker 5: and joking and saying how you know, and it like,
Speaker 5: you know, the ass is like how did it happen?
Speaker 5: You know? How was he sick?
Speaker 6: Was he like?
Speaker 5: They just asked, like I'm just looking at him, like,
Speaker 5: I don't know, he's he's past. I know, I'm a
Speaker 5: it's a sad really, you know, I just talk think
Speaker 5: he's dead. What do you I mean, that's the end
Speaker 5: of it. You know, he's dead. I'm not gonna talk
Speaker 5: differently this because you know, I just tell people when
Speaker 5: I get the death certificate and they say what the
Speaker 5: cause was, then I don't know what it was. Yeah,
Speaker 5: that's the best thing I could tell people, you know.
Speaker 5: But he was he was young, his only thirty six.
Speaker 5: He was a twin. I think I thought he came
Speaker 5: on the show, but it wasn't him. It was my
Speaker 5: mom and my sister.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it wasn't him.
Speaker 5: I tried to get him on, but at that time
Speaker 5: he was not he would answer his phone. But anyway, yeah,
Speaker 5: that's whole other thing. And you never had the twin
Speaker 5: sister on. But yeah, he has a twin.
Speaker 2: Sister, so wow.
Speaker 5: I think it was a little bit harder too, because
Speaker 5: growing up we my mom and my well a lot
Speaker 5: of people know my father was a pastor and my
Speaker 5: mother was a barbaraker. So in the summertime, like around
Speaker 5: this time actually, there'd be were busy doing their different
Speaker 5: things and doing the different them them dyne in regulation
Speaker 5: seminars and their crusades and different things like that amazing
Speaker 5: fact seminars and stuff that they was busy. So my
Speaker 5: sister and I had I had the children when they
Speaker 5: was born because we were teenagers, so we had she
Speaker 5: had Justin and I had you know, so it probably
Speaker 5: hit a little bit harder that to do because we
Speaker 5: had that from when they was babies, connection with them,
Speaker 5: you know, like just I'm not saying other people don't
Speaker 5: have connection with their siblings, but we just since they
Speaker 5: was little, with always like taken care of them, always
Speaker 5: checked on them always, you know. So yeah, but I
Speaker 5: don't think it's hit yet completely have like I said,
Speaker 5: you know, valleys and gloves. Yeah, but it's the what's
Speaker 5: the word. I went to church today for communion and
Speaker 5: they was very what's the word? They was very support
Speaker 5: what if yeah, and just giving it consolers and stuff
Speaker 5: and saying, you know, we're paying for you. So I
Speaker 5: had a couple of friends. One thing. I yeah, I've
Speaker 5: been on my phone for the bids. We can have
Speaker 5: two weeks. I hate being on my phone, Like literally,
Speaker 5: the phone will stop ringing, the phone start ringing again
Speaker 5: as I'm hanging up, and I'm just like, okay, I
Speaker 5: can put the phone down, don't even touch it. Yeah,
Speaker 5: but I mean, you know, it's good and we connect
Speaker 5: with some friends that have spoken to in years, so
Speaker 5: you know, good thing has come from it, But we're
Speaker 5: still we're still I don't I don't know where to
Speaker 5: put it, to be honest with you, because it hasn't
Speaker 5: really he won't be buried until September, but it just doesn't.
Speaker 5: It's only even two weeks, so it's still kind of
Speaker 5: like fresh side. Can't put words into it in a sense.
Speaker 2: Do you think the distance makes a difference in how
Speaker 2: how it hits how it feels that you're not sorry?
Speaker 5: That again?
Speaker 2: And I'm saying, do you think the distance makes a
Speaker 2: difference that you're not there in calif when you were
Speaker 2: there in the US. Does that make a difference in
Speaker 2: how it hits you saying or how it.
Speaker 5: And also probably some people, Yeah, my mom's in Scotland.
Speaker 5: My sister's in Scotland, so I think the distance does
Speaker 5: it may help them. For me, I have a different
Speaker 5: view on death, so I kind of I'm always been
Speaker 5: a calm one. I'm not really the choir. I'm not
Speaker 5: really the one that like just does like going crazy
Speaker 5: and manic and everything. I'm always been like, Okay, what
Speaker 5: do we need to do? What do we need to
Speaker 5: get in place? You know, but you know, tickets, but
Speaker 5: you know, like that's my always been my mystic. As
Speaker 5: they say, I don't know. My view on death is
Speaker 5: like I know it's supposed to happen, and I'm a
Speaker 5: fair believer of that. You know, everything happens for a reason.
Speaker 5: Pain is what you know, we get sometimes to to
Speaker 5: get to the other side of what we need. So
Speaker 5: sometimes that pain may be the loss of a loved
Speaker 5: one because it's taking us. It's taking us not a
Speaker 5: path to get to where we need, where God wants
Speaker 5: us to get to. So for me, I don't Yeah,
Speaker 5: for me, I just you know, it's I don't know
Speaker 5: who's gonna hit me. It's probably gonna hit me, I
Speaker 5: just don't know when. Yeah, and it probably it's probably
Speaker 5: already hit me a little bit too. But because the
Speaker 5: way I grieve is the way I grieve, I'm not
Speaker 5: letting it hit me the way I needed to let
Speaker 5: me hit me, If that makes sense. Yeah, because I
Speaker 5: kind of have a tendency to come punted the lives
Speaker 5: and then yeah, so so I'm just trying to look
Speaker 5: out for all that stuff. But there's a lot going on,
Speaker 5: but it's still like okay, but distance probably it may
Speaker 5: have helped, may have helped. I mean, you want to
Speaker 5: be there like right at that moment, but but then again,
Speaker 5: they really want to be there right.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 3: Yeah, we could take it one day at a time,
Speaker 3: take it easy.
Speaker 5: That's it. I take it one day at a time. You know,
Speaker 5: I don't know.
Speaker 3: If there's a right or wrong way to grieve. I
Speaker 3: think people will try and tell you that there might
Speaker 3: be there is, but then there would be different stages.
Speaker 3: I know that much.
Speaker 5: But you know, I think that's the thing, Like, I
Speaker 5: know the way I grieve. That's why I don't my
Speaker 5: mom and my sister grieving one way in my family
Speaker 5: in a whole, not just my mom and my sister.
Speaker 5: I just say to them because immediate you know, like
Speaker 5: that go from regularly, but the other even other family members, Well,
Speaker 5: we're all going to agreeve differently, you know. Yeah, it's
Speaker 5: just a matter of how you grieve. But I know
Speaker 5: I have to grieve because if I don't agree, then
Speaker 5: it's going to sit on me for a while. So
Speaker 5: I know I need to. I just I guess what
Speaker 5: I'm saying. I'm trying to figure out how to grieve,
Speaker 5: what how I need to grieve if I'm I'm saying
Speaker 5: because I'm just trying to figure out how I'm gonna
Speaker 5: let it go, you know, or yeah, yeah, that's the
Speaker 5: best way I can put it.
Speaker 2: It's a process, that's for sure. And I don't know
Speaker 2: if it's a straight line. We talk about the stages
Speaker 2: of grief, but it may not be a stage thing
Speaker 2: or a step thing. You may be one place today
Speaker 2: in another place tomorrow, or you know, or if it's
Speaker 2: a stage or maybe at one stage at five o'clock
Speaker 2: and another stage at two. You know, it's it's a
Speaker 2: difficult thing to.
Speaker 5: Snap somebody today and then become to all.
Speaker 2: Right, that's it, that's it. But yeah, as we said
Speaker 2: at the top, we're just praying for you. We always
Speaker 2: pray for each other. And I really appreciate the Talking
Speaker 2: Point team for that. We're very much a family. Now,
Speaker 2: i'd like to say I'm speaking, I'm speaking for everybody.
Speaker 5: Everybody shows how much of a family we are because
Speaker 5: we all. People don't realize how we all talk to
Speaker 5: each other and stuff like we don't hold our tongues
Speaker 5: and we don't. We just talked to each other.
Speaker 2: That's it.
Speaker 5: That's it, that's family. They always get along either people
Speaker 5: think we may get along with always.
Speaker 2: Going to know, we don't always agree, right.
Speaker 5: That's what I mean that get along. We don't always agree,
Speaker 5: but we you know, we talk it out. So you know,
Speaker 5: that's what family do.
Speaker 2: I appreciate that much.
Speaker 5: I definitely get see you guys family for sure.
Speaker 2: Definitely. Yeah.
Speaker 7: I mean.
Speaker 3: No, no, no, I was looking for something you're saying.
Speaker 3: But I was thinking about that.
Speaker 2: You're not so sure we're family.
Speaker 5: See at that point, because you're just like.
Speaker 8: No.
Speaker 3: I was literally thinking, I've been you know, on my
Speaker 3: I'm always grabbing for Instagram, I'm looking for inspiration and.
Speaker 9: What have you.
Speaker 3: But I've actually been grief has come up quite a
Speaker 3: lot for me that I've been looking to myself. So
Speaker 3: i'd read something quite interestedly about grief, which I thought
Speaker 3: was interested, So I was just looking at that, So
Speaker 3: I was slightly I was listening.
Speaker 9: But.
Speaker 5: Did that because I know.
Speaker 3: This, because it was quite interesting. It was what I
Speaker 3: interesting thoughts.
Speaker 2: And is that something you want to share later or
Speaker 2: want to share now or what are you I do?
Speaker 3: I mean, it's just as we were talking about it, so.
Speaker 2: Yeah, okay, well, why don't we pray and then we
Speaker 2: will get into it and Pedro. If there is a
Speaker 2: song that's been ministering to you at this time, or
Speaker 2: if there's a scripture or anything that you'd like to
Speaker 2: share to encourage others who may be going through the
Speaker 2: same thing, or just something that's kind of resonated with
Speaker 2: you now or always, then we'd be happy to put
Speaker 2: that on for you as well. I know Tara potentially
Speaker 2: is coming on as well, and we've got a few
Speaker 2: people lined up who will be sharing their favorites and
Speaker 2: we're looking forward to a very interactive program definitely, Father,
Speaker 2: thank you for another Sabbath day. Thank you for another
Speaker 2: sunny day. I pray that those who are listening enjoyed
Speaker 2: the Sabbath have been blessed by the programming by the
Speaker 2: worship by the Word of today. And as we're about
Speaker 2: to get into our talking point program, I pray that
Speaker 2: you will be with the technology. May everything go well.
Speaker 2: I want to just stop a while and thank you
Speaker 2: for the platform that we have and the friendship and
Speaker 2: the camaraderie that we have. And I pray that persons
Speaker 2: who listen are blessed and encouraging and uplifted always. And
Speaker 2: may they continue to share me, they continue to be
Speaker 2: a part of this great program and this great radio station.
Speaker 10: Be with us.
Speaker 2: Now, I pray in she's the same, Amen and amen,
Speaker 2: do you want to share that? And then I'll jump
Speaker 2: into the song.
Speaker 3: Okay, all right, so again this is by Yeah, it's
Speaker 3: just a thought that somebody had so post that I follow.
Speaker 3: Behave in their family literally says you don't move on
Speaker 3: after loss, but you must move with You must shake
Speaker 3: hands with grief. Welcome her in before she lives with you.
Speaker 3: Now pull her a chair at the table and offer
Speaker 3: her comfort. She is not the monster you first thought
Speaker 3: her to be. She is love and she will walk
Speaker 3: with you. Now, stay with you now peacefully. If you
Speaker 3: let her on another days when your anger is high,
Speaker 3: remember why she came remember who she represents. Remember, grief
Speaker 3: came to you, my friend, because love came first. Love
Speaker 3: came first. I thought it was just an interesting perspective
Speaker 3: on it in terms of starts of different layers, and
Speaker 3: it's quite complex. But I guess we grieve because we
Speaker 3: love and we have love for that person. Yeah, you know,
Speaker 3: I guess in some ways to come one with the other.
Speaker 3: So yeah, it was just an interesting So it was
Speaker 3: a lady called Donna Ashworth Suppoe that she wrote, well,
Speaker 3: for those, as you said before, those who maybe maybe
Speaker 3: this in my heart goes out to her Pegoinist family
Speaker 3: as we said before, and anybody who possibly has such
Speaker 3: agreement all going through you know, still, you know, dealing
Speaker 3: with their grief because it isn't something that just magically
Speaker 3: disappears and goes away. May always be with you.
Speaker 2: I remember from our conversation with the therapists and Mama
Speaker 2: Faith what's her name again, Well they just walked it here,
Speaker 2: but she was on talking about her son, and I
Speaker 2: remember one of the sea Selena, one of the therapists, said,
Speaker 2: and I thought that was such a drop to mic moment.
Speaker 2: But you've mentioned it here again that it out loving
Speaker 2: someone just exposes us or puts us at risk or
Speaker 2: sure is that when we lose them that we'll hurt.
Speaker 2: So it's a risk you take when you love someone
Speaker 2: purely and you love someone deeply. But that's the balance
Speaker 2: of it, I suppose, and that's the blessing of it.
Speaker 2: So it's better to have loved and lost. I think
Speaker 2: there's a song or something like that about that. But yeah,
Speaker 2: it's just such a blessing to have people in our lives.
Speaker 2: And yeah, it then results in us being heard and
Speaker 2: being lost and being broken when these things happen. Pedro,
Speaker 2: I'm going to jump into a song because this is
Speaker 2: actually a song, a program about songs. So you have
Speaker 2: requested your Love Divine by Richard Smallwood, and that is next.
Speaker 2: I'm reminding everyone that you can also send through your request,
Speaker 2: you can also share with us your songs. What's been
Speaker 2: ministering to you at this time, what's been resonating with you?
Speaker 2: And for me, I've got a lot of favorite songs,
Speaker 2: but my favorite seems to change depending on the mood,
Speaker 2: depending on the day, depending on the moment. Maybe that's
Speaker 2: it for you, or maybe you've got a song that's
Speaker 2: been your song from day dot let us know what
Speaker 2: it is and why and we'll be happy to put
Speaker 2: that on. And also you can come on as well

Speaker 13: In sets sat st.
Speaker 2: Your love Define Richard Smaller. That is Petro's choice, and Petrick,
Speaker 2: we're talking offline of your love for the I'm not
Speaker 2: gonna say old school. Well, old school, yes, old school.
Speaker 2: I think it's a little bit more modern than Oldie Goldie.
Speaker 5: I've been longer than you think. Yes, John Key has
Speaker 5: been out since he did a song on Everea Hawkins
Speaker 5: CD in like in the late seventieses. Yeah, so yeah,
Speaker 5: how long he's been out. But you don't think about it.
Speaker 5: But he's been out eighties, but he's definitely been out
Speaker 5: for a minute.
Speaker 2: When I think old school, I'm thinking I think more
Speaker 2: of like you, Jim Reeese. But that's not old school.
Speaker 2: I think that's oldly Goldie. That's that's that's taking it
Speaker 2: way way.
Speaker 5: Back to ever Presley.
Speaker 2: Yes, but I really know when you too that I
Speaker 2: love all music. Every mainstream artist has a gospel CD.
Speaker 2: That'll be just let's just put that out there right now.
Speaker 2: Every single one of them has has well, not every single,
Speaker 2: but most have doubled in gospel, and they've doubled in Christmas.
Speaker 2: You mostly find that artists having a gospel or a
Speaker 2: Christmas CD out.
Speaker 5: But my days, right a Gospel City stop playing.
Speaker 2: I think he's he's more gospel now than than than
Speaker 2: the secular well exactly. I saw him doing something with
Speaker 2: Maverick City recently. So yeah, I mean Mariage Citty really
Speaker 2: bringing in those sort of secular artists or mainstream matters,
Speaker 2: whatever you want to call them, and pulling them onto
Speaker 2: their tracks. And I think that's that's doing.
Speaker 5: Its working to start.
Speaker 6: Oh boy, by.
Speaker 2: Interesting, I think we should because I feel like we're
Speaker 2: gonna fight here already.
Speaker 6: Ding ding ding.
Speaker 2: That's fine, right anyway, we digress tell tell us a
Speaker 2: little bit about about Richard Richard Smallwood and why that
Speaker 2: song's really ministering to you at the moment.
Speaker 5: I just always like Richard small Would. I think a
Speaker 5: lot of his songs minister just I guess because you know,
Speaker 5: with the words I say, you know the pain and
Speaker 5: the pain we bear, and just you know, like I said,
Speaker 5: with the passing on my brother and the pain that
Speaker 5: I'm feeling. And then just as your action, you know,
Speaker 5: he's saying, sing your directions, sing your protection, you know,
Speaker 5: sing your compassion, Sing your love divine. So like, say
Speaker 5: your love to me right now, because I need it,
Speaker 5: because I just don't know where to go, Like I'm lost,
Speaker 5: I don't know where I'm thinking, I don't know what
Speaker 5: I'm feeling. But I know that if you send me
Speaker 5: your love divine, it will help me through this time
Speaker 5: of grief and sorrow and anything like it will help
Speaker 5: me through whatever I'm going through at that moment, you know.
Speaker 5: And in the song, he also talked about people doing
Speaker 5: you wrong and stuff, because a lot of times you
Speaker 5: know you're feeling sorrowful because people are you know, irritating
Speaker 5: you are doing wrong by you. So you know, that's
Speaker 5: why that song was also think because it's just make
Speaker 5: you remember, you know that even though people are doing
Speaker 5: you wrong, his love can can conquer that. Yes, So
Speaker 5: for me, that's why iays like that one in particular
Speaker 5: song and it's short, it's not a long song, so
Speaker 5: you can listen to like two three times in a
Speaker 5: row and just you know, really feel the you know,
Speaker 5: really get into it, you know, really feel the the
Speaker 5: vibe of it, you know, and then kind of just
Speaker 5: let your let your mind just think on him and
Speaker 5: worship him.
Speaker 2: Yeah, let it wash over you, as I would say, Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 2: I love that. I love that, Angie. I think your
Speaker 2: song is next. Whilst we wait for the selections to
Speaker 2: come in. Your song is next? You selected, and you've
Speaker 2: got a few lined up, to be honest, but the
Speaker 2: one I've queued up is and I think it's it's
Speaker 2: just appropriate. Behind John Peakey's Oh Sorry, Richard Small was
Speaker 2: is Jordan see Welsh's Opened the Eyes And I remember
Speaker 2: when this had kind of blown up on Instagram and
Speaker 2: social media, she'd done a live version of that and
Speaker 2: it's just so beautifully done. And I think it was
Speaker 2: picked up and went viral. But the words, the words
Speaker 2: of this one, I think tell us a little bit
Speaker 2: about why you've chosen.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think you're right. It definitely. It's a fairly
Speaker 3: well known song. I remember it from a world ago,
Speaker 3: and I remember obviously, like you said, it's I don't
Speaker 3: know if he's seen sometimes go viral, but I remember
Speaker 3: that week. I follow I mean for many humo. I
Speaker 3: support my mom who's been with Alzheimer's, and I follow
Speaker 3: a lot of accounts on Instagram of other caregivers and
Speaker 3: I sat watching one who of a lady who was
Speaker 3: mem escapes me as I'm saying it now, But anyway,
Speaker 3: she has been supporting her mom for over ten years,
Speaker 3: almost ten years, and she was just sharing a moment
Speaker 3: of her and her mom, you know, and she's had
Speaker 3: lots of ups and downs and what happened in that journey,
Speaker 3: and she had that song playing, and I remember thinking wow,
Speaker 3: and it was just a really beautiful moment that this
Speaker 3: lady was sharing on Instagram. Anyway, I thought, wow, that's
Speaker 3: a really interesting I love the version of this song
Speaker 3: and I think I could definitely, I could definitely relate
Speaker 3: to some of the experiences this caregiver has been going through.
Speaker 3: And I think as I was listening to the song
Speaker 3: and watching that, I just thought, you know, I can
Speaker 3: really relate to this, to this moment that this lady
Speaker 3: is sharing. But it was a lyric that read the
Speaker 3: it's that really sort of I suppose drew me in.
Speaker 3: I'm a really poignant for me, Whereas there's a lyric
Speaker 3: that she says, silence the noise in my mind, Lord,
Speaker 3: and open the eyes of my heart. And I remember
Speaker 3: sometimes when you know things are not going quite to plan,
Speaker 3: and a care giver's journey is, you know, very ups
Speaker 3: and down. Some days, you just never know what's going
Speaker 3: to happen. Sometimes everything just feels really chaotic, and you know,
Speaker 3: just praying to God to silence that noise, to silence
Speaker 3: the chaos, and just gives you this calm peace and
Speaker 3: just knowing that, you know, okay, I've got to stop
Speaker 3: and let's just got to take over. And it really
Speaker 3: resonated with me that song, and I just remember probably
Speaker 3: shedding a tear, as you do, because sometimes the frustration
Speaker 3: is real. But that was kind of it really was
Speaker 3: really poignant at that moment. I then went into a
Speaker 3: bit of a deep dive looking at everything that does.
Speaker 3: And it's been quite fascinating to kind of watch some
Speaker 3: as the way she has condone workshops and she's conducted
Speaker 3: you know, big sort of conferences and they've become this
Speaker 3: big mass choir, which was just fantastic and I remember thinking, oh,
Speaker 3: I'd love to be in one of those sort of
Speaker 3: sessions there. But yeah, so this is this, you know,
Speaker 3: the words are very simple in this song, very poignant
Speaker 3: for that moment for me and just sometimes you know,
Speaker 3: that's all we need. We just want God to say,
Speaker 3: I can't do it myself, but I've got to be open,
Speaker 3: to be able to allow God to well open whilst
Speaker 3: the song is asking us to open our eyes so
Speaker 3: we can see just how much He's doing for us
Speaker 3: and how much that has got everything in control, and
Speaker 3: you know, if you can't see it, and then it's
Speaker 3: just you know, it's also a kind of a sectally
Speaker 3: a worship song praise, you know, to praise to share
Speaker 3: the joy that we should have in a situation. So yeah, fine,
Speaker 3: so yes, so this is my song is open the
Speaker 3: eyes of my heart, like Jordan g.
Speaker 19: Well, Open the eyes of my heart, Lord.
Speaker 9: Hoping the eyes of my heart. I want to see.
Speaker 9: I want to see, hopingly eyes from my heart. Lord,
Speaker 9: hoping the eyes of my heart. I want to see.
Speaker 9: I want to see silence, the noise in my mind.
Speaker 9: Lord and hoping the eyes of my heart.
Speaker 6: I want to see.
Speaker 9: I want to see.
Speaker 20: Silence, the noise in my mind.
Speaker 21: Hoping the eyes of my heart. I want to see.
Speaker 21: I want to see.
Speaker 3: To see you.
Speaker 22: Hide and lifted up, shine in the light of your glory.
Speaker 22: Pour out chapaw and love as we seen, Holy Holy.
Speaker 9: Hop.
Speaker 10: To see you hide.
Speaker 22: Dead, shining in the light of your glory. Pour out
Speaker 22: of power and love as we seek, Holy Holy Holy,
Speaker 22: So hoping lyaz some my heart.
Speaker 9: Hopingly eyes and my heart.
Speaker 21: I want to see.
Speaker 10: I want to see openly eyes to my heart, hopingly
Speaker 10: eyes byhead.
Speaker 23: I see. I want to see. I want to see.
Speaker 23: I want to see.
Speaker 13: I need to eat.
Speaker 6: On the other.
Speaker 4: To me.
Speaker 16: I want to know.
Speaker 23: You, I want to know. I want to see.
Speaker 3: So let's just pray just for this moment, Father God,
Speaker 3: I want to thank you for blessings with this opportunity
Speaker 3: to Lord, and as now as we think about those
Speaker 3: in our time of sorrow, and loss. We turn to
Speaker 3: you Lord for strength and comfort. Wrap your loving arms
Speaker 3: around us and grant us the peace that pass us
Speaker 3: all understanding. Help us to find solace and the memories
Speaker 3: of our loved ones and God us through this difficult
Speaker 3: time and journey of grief. We ask for your healing touch,
Speaker 3: Dear Lord, mend our brokenness and bring light into our
Speaker 3: dark times. Help us to find the strength to move on.
Speaker 3: As I said, while we cherish those memories, Father, God,
Speaker 3: we love you. We know that you are looking afterwards
Speaker 3: and you're there for us, and I pray that you
Speaker 3: will lift us up in these times.
Speaker 5: This is my prayer.
Speaker 9: Amen ah man.
Speaker 20: Ah Ti.
Speaker 9: In the glow, reversevers.
Speaker 24: Reverse resource, transform much Lord, reversever.
Speaker 9: Again.
Speaker 3: What's the song against Daniel?
Speaker 2: So we're back and my song is turn your eyes
Speaker 2: upon Jesus.
Speaker 9: For me.
Speaker 2: The I started at the top. Different songs hits me
Speaker 2: differently depending on where I am, and it's it's I
Speaker 2: do something on social media called song of the week,
Speaker 2: So I will just choose a song or there's a
Speaker 2: song that would have resonated or they've spoken to me
Speaker 2: in the moment, and I would share that. And it's
Speaker 2: funny because now I'm doing it. I recognize there are words, lyrics,
Speaker 2: moments in a song that I've heard them several times
Speaker 2: before but didn't see that line, or didn't hear that line,
Speaker 2: or didn't recognize that line until it applied to me.
Speaker 2: And I can't seem to get out of it at
Speaker 2: this moment. The hymn that's really been I've just been
Speaker 2: playing it over, singing it over and over again, looking
Speaker 2: at those words time and time again, is turn your
Speaker 2: eyes upon Jesus. And I don't know if it's because
Speaker 2: of what's going on the chaos that's going on around us,
Speaker 2: the chaos that is going on in my life. Me too,
Speaker 2: I'm a Kierra and some days, some weeks, some months,
Speaker 2: you don't even know it. And then there are other
Speaker 2: times when it's just taken over my life, taken over
Speaker 2: our lives, and we can't see, you know, the forest
Speaker 2: for the trees is at the time, but I and now,
Speaker 2: with the riots and the wars and the rumors of
Speaker 2: wars and everything else the news, you can't but switch
Speaker 2: on the news and be hit with just some disaster
Speaker 2: or some really sad incidental whatever. And for me, it's
Speaker 2: just those words have hit me afresh. Turn your eyes
Speaker 2: upon Jesus, look full into his beautiful face, and the
Speaker 2: things of earth will grow strangely dim in the light
Speaker 2: of His love and his grace.
Speaker 3: And for this one, you've chosen Lauren, Yes, and things
Speaker 3: specific about her that you like.
Speaker 2: Lauren Diegel is one of my favorite artists and you,
Speaker 2: I think, no, I can't. I can't say one of
Speaker 2: my favorites. I need to stop saying that now I'm
Speaker 2: going to get in trouble. Everybody's one of my favorites.
Speaker 2: But I really do love Lauren Daegel. She's got a voice,
Speaker 2: very a very unique voice, and a very unique way
Speaker 2: of putting over a song. And it was you who
Speaker 2: introduced me to her song. I think, yes, Yes, I
Speaker 2: think that's it. I can't remember that. Yes, And I've
Speaker 2: just been listening to her, listening to her her album.
Speaker 2: I think she was over here very recently doing a concert.
Speaker 2: And speaking of which, I think there's a concert going
Speaker 2: on today. There's lots of glittering boots. I'm not going
Speaker 2: to say the name, a lot of glittery short skirts
Speaker 2: and boots making their way to Wembley. I say no more.
Speaker 2: But I do love a good concert, and I'm hoping
Speaker 2: that there will be some some more lined up from
Speaker 2: our our gospel artists. But she was over here recently,
Speaker 2: and yeah, I do love I love her, I love
Speaker 2: what she does. And this version is also a little
Speaker 2: bit more upbeat, and yeah, I do hope you enjoy.
Speaker 2: Turn your eyes upon Jesus, Lauren daegil.
Speaker 20: Nepo face they wo.
Speaker 19: Shame in the line of face close. Oh so are you.
Speaker 6: In trouble?
Speaker 2: On?
Speaker 20: No lie in the darkness.
Speaker 6: You see.
Speaker 25: There's lies for a log at the Savior, and life
Speaker 25: more abundant than free.
Speaker 19: To dead than to life. And the last day.
Speaker 20: He fes and we are the wind.
Speaker 19: Or us no more had dominion for more than comper.
Speaker 19: Oh time, your face and the thing will close strain.

Speaker 6: Aboog geese.
Speaker 13: Shine, oh shame.
Speaker 26: Shames a bologyes.
Speaker 3: Okay, so that was Sonywis Come Jesus, Brenda and Dagle.
Speaker 3: It's kind of brought me to mind. Actually, I was
Speaker 3: just thinking when we were with Big B Dad showed
Speaker 3: to get on some of my favorite songs and an
Speaker 3: opportunity to kind of sort of share what kind of
Speaker 3: up lifts us. One of my devotionals this week, I
Speaker 3: was it was talking about the look at the verse
Speaker 3: James one, verse two to three, which says, dear brothers
Speaker 3: and sisters, when troubles of any kinds come your way,
Speaker 3: consider it an opportunity for great joy. For you know
Speaker 3: that when your faith is tested, your endurance has a
Speaker 3: chance to grow. And I thought, Okay, that's really interesting
Speaker 3: because you know so so much going on, and you know,
Speaker 3: we've shared a little bit of things that we've been
Speaker 3: going through recently, and I just remember in one of
Speaker 3: my days this week, I remember thinking, I'm finding let's
Speaker 3: saying it's an opportunity for joy and I'm like, I'm
Speaker 3: finding no joy in this situation what I'm going through,
Speaker 3: and I know it's an opportunity for great joy. I'm
Speaker 3: just not feeling very joyous. I'm not saying, thinking how
Speaker 3: I can do this, and I'm thinking, Okay, the text stage.
Speaker 3: You know, when your faith is chip tested, your endurance
Speaker 3: has chance to grow. And you know, so in the
Speaker 3: back of my mind, I'm thinking, Okay, I'm going through something,
Speaker 3: it's testing me, it's going to help me grow. This
Speaker 3: should be an opportunity for great joy. I'm just like,
Speaker 3: I do not find the Joey. I've got see how
Speaker 3: I'm finding the joy. However, I recognize and this is
Speaker 3: where the beauty of music definitely comes in that even
Speaker 3: if I don't necessarily see it there, and then you know,
Speaker 3: I can put on music. And I realized, actually this
Speaker 3: week I listened to a lot of music, and I
Speaker 3: didn't even watch that much television actually read it. I
Speaker 3: don't think I even put my In fact, I don't
Speaker 3: think I even put the TV on a week, and
Speaker 3: I that sometimes in sharp contrast, at the end of
Speaker 3: my day, I'm like, I put the TV on just
Speaker 3: watching something that's quite mindless and watches over me. But
Speaker 3: I had a lot of music playing, you know, throughout
Speaker 3: the house, and you know, without sometimes you even realizing
Speaker 3: kind of music can be so uplifting and whether it's
Speaker 3: you know, really upbeat song, it could be a kind
Speaker 3: of a you know, a very gentle whatever, you know,
Speaker 3: it can make a whole difference. So it really got
Speaker 3: me thinking and I kind of think, you know, there's
Speaker 3: a lot to be taken from that text. You know,
Speaker 3: we you know, we know that troubles. It's not even
Speaker 3: a question if troubles come. You know that troubles are
Speaker 3: going to come. So the text is saying when not
Speaker 3: if so we know that as well, and even when
Speaker 3: you they do come, we're be encouraged to say, it's
Speaker 3: an opportunity to find joy. So whatever you do, sometimes
Speaker 3: there could be a glimmer of hope joy in every situation.
Speaker 3: Maybe difficult to find, but sometimes you have to kind
Speaker 3: of as well. But some but I guess the key
Speaker 3: thing was really that sometimes it is about an opportunity
Speaker 3: sometimes for God to show you things and to you know,
Speaker 3: reveal something that maybe He's got a plan that we
Speaker 3: may not understand, or it's you know, possibly refining the
Speaker 3: way that we may look at him as well. And
Speaker 3: it's obviously you know, we can, like I said, we
Speaker 3: can find joy. Sometimes we can find the joy even
Speaker 3: if it doesn't seem that clear. And it is that
Speaker 3: space for us to grow, to build our resilience, to
Speaker 3: build our enjoyance, our endurance, I should say, when you
Speaker 3: think of it like this, like a flower. Often we
Speaker 3: think of a flower and needs to grow. It might
Speaker 3: have to go through something, and that's often sometimes it's
Speaker 3: just the dirt, so you know, you plant to seed.
Speaker 3: It doesn't become a flower instantly. It's having to push
Speaker 3: up through the ground, you know. And eventually with their
Speaker 3: writing you know that it's rain, the water, the sunshine,
Speaker 3: and it adventure will grow. So it will grow, go
Speaker 3: through things for an already it's to bloom beautifully. So
Speaker 3: sometimes when we can't even understand it, you know, consider
Speaker 3: these trials and tribulations that we talk about so often
Speaker 3: at times that you know, it is an opportunity to
Speaker 3: give some praise, give some thanks because often sometimes when
Speaker 3: we're going through stuff, we sometimes go through it and
Speaker 3: we come out the other side and just think, oh
Speaker 3: I've got there, and there's no reasons for that. So yeah,
Speaker 3: we've got in mind. I kind of yeah thinking, Okay,
Speaker 3: every time I'm going through something, I have to really
Speaker 3: think and I pray, you know, God can help me
Speaker 3: find some joy wherever I can. And then we then
Speaker 3: in mind, I know, we we've been asking for some
Speaker 3: of our favorites. Spoke to one of I chech brothers
Speaker 3: at Balam, Paul Brown, who has been ill recently but
Speaker 3: thankfully he's on the mens hopefully he's back at home
Speaker 3: spend he was in hospital for a few weeks and men,
Speaker 3: who's back at home now. So I was asking him, know,
Speaker 3: what is some of his favorite songs and one that
Speaker 3: you mentioned was joyful Joyful we Adore You? And I thought,
Speaker 3: you know, and I was like which version? He was like, oh, any,
Speaker 3: To be honest with you, you know, the words are
Speaker 3: quite you know, poignant, and it's about you know, finding
Speaker 3: it is about finding joy and recognizing again seeing him
Speaker 3: God is, and how we can show our love and
Speaker 3: adoration for him. So this is shout out to Paul
Speaker 3: Brown if you's hopefully he's listening, if he may do,
Speaker 3: but you know, so this one for him, and I
Speaker 3: think we have got the version from the film Sister Act.
Speaker 3: I think lined up and again it's again fairly well
Speaker 3: known song. This is another version of it, So yeah,
Speaker 3: I think the lyrics now I'm saying that it's.
Speaker 2: Joyful, joyful, We adore you, God of Glory, Lord of Love, heart,

Speaker 23: no no, no no no.
Speaker 5: Mo.
Speaker 2: Well, if you know anything about myself, and I'm gonna
Speaker 2: have a shameless plug now for Saturday Night Praise. One
Speaker 2: of the programs that I do at a talking point
Speaker 2: at the end of the month is that I love
Speaker 2: Southern gospel music and I think it really does get
Speaker 2: the adrenaline going. It gets you in the mood. It's
Speaker 2: good old praise, good old fashioned praise. And that song
Speaker 2: one of my favorites I forgot. I'm not saying that
Speaker 2: that song by Dorinda Clark. I really love that. I've
Speaker 2: got too many into I love Durinda. I mean, the
Speaker 2: Clock sisters are, you know, in a league of their own,
Speaker 2: but Durnda's version of that, and it just reminds us
Speaker 2: that we ought to be thankful, joyful, thankful, just appreciating
Speaker 2: what God's what God does for us even in the
Speaker 2: midst of challenging times. And there's a scripture that I
Speaker 2: want to use piggybacking and what you said before, Angie,
Speaker 2: and it's James one and it is two to four.
Speaker 2: I'm one to four or two to four. Sorry, I'm
Speaker 2: James one, two to four. My brethren counted all joy
Speaker 2: when you fall into diverse temptations, knowing this that the
Speaker 2: trying of your faith work with patients. But let patients
Speaker 2: have her perfect work, that ye may be perfect and entire,
Speaker 2: wanting nothing. And for me, that text just says it all, really,
Speaker 2: that it's working through us and working in us what
Speaker 2: God wants to have come out. And Pedro, you said
Speaker 2: that at the very very beginning, that the trials come,
Speaker 2: the troubles come. And we had that program was it
Speaker 2: a week or two ago in Ballum? And I loved
Speaker 2: the theme. It's from from trial or from trauma to triumph,
Speaker 2: and it's praising God along that journey, praising God along
Speaker 2: the way. And for me, that's what music does. That's
Speaker 2: what music does. And Pedro, I'm looking forward to the
Speaker 2: debate because I know we're going to have one in
Speaker 2: due course. But for me, music just puts me in
Speaker 2: that moment, it puts me in that mood. And as
Speaker 2: I said before, it depends on where I'm at and
Speaker 2: what songs will really do that for me, whether I'm
Speaker 2: in a praise and worship mode or whether I want
Speaker 2: to I'm washing dishes and cleaning the house and I
Speaker 2: want a little bit of Caribbean so coron or whatever
Speaker 2: it might be.
Speaker 5: But what the bit are you're talking about? I'm sorry
Speaker 5: we're talking.
Speaker 2: We're talking about the music debate. I know we're gonna
Speaker 2: have that.
Speaker 5: I agree with you on that one. I think music
Speaker 5: is the keyhole or whatever, the opening to the soul. Yes,
Speaker 5: I think music for anybody is what's That's why they
Speaker 5: say you need to watch what you listen to, because
Speaker 5: you listen to a lot of these artists, not secular artists,
Speaker 5: and they got all this mumbo and this slow grinding
Speaker 5: kind of and it just makes you depressed. And you know,
Speaker 5: it just makes you not think. You know, like music,
Speaker 5: Gospel music. I think the right gospel music is it
Speaker 5: uplifts you, It gives you, It makes you feel something
Speaker 5: when you listen to it. Yeah, it certainly makes you
Speaker 5: realize how much God loves you. You want something like
Speaker 5: that when you're listening to music. You want to feel
Speaker 5: God in your life. When you're listening to this music
Speaker 5: and know that he's there with you.
Speaker 2: And I think I think when I talk about the debate,
Speaker 2: I feel music is a very personal thing and that's
Speaker 2: why we're let me plug it again. We're encouraging our
Speaker 2: listeners to share. If you don't want to come on,
Speaker 2: that's fine, send the text, send the message and just
Speaker 2: let us know what song is ministering to you at
Speaker 2: this time and we will love to get that on
Speaker 2: for you. And tell us why, tell us why that
Speaker 2: song speaks to you at this very moment. What have
Speaker 2: you been listening to? Yes, I well ate triple to
Speaker 2: eight hope, so that's eight triple to eight. Type the
Speaker 2: word hope, leave us space and then send your details

Speaker 2: four two eight nine eight zero seven four or five
Speaker 2: nine six four two eight nine eight and just share

Speaker 2: more interactive and the date does I think we'll take
Speaker 2: it to another level. I know you're listening, We know
Speaker 2: you're listening. You often meet us or meet Angela sorry
Speaker 2: and say that you're listening.
Speaker 6: Oh boy, I don't know.

Speaker 2: you're there. Please do get involved. Let us know what
Speaker 2: you're listening to. It's an easy one today. What are
Speaker 2: you listening to, what's on your playlist? What gets you
Speaker 2: through these days? And we'd love to share that with
Speaker 2: the rest of our listeners. In fact, it's a way
Speaker 2: of encouraging each other. And that's what I'm saying, and
Speaker 2: that's I think maybe the debate that will have eventually
Speaker 2: is that music is a very personal journey. What speaks
Speaker 2: to me may not speak to you. What resonates with
Speaker 2: me might not resonate with you. What I enjoy may
Speaker 2: not necessarily be what you enjoy. But I believe there
Speaker 2: is a space in there for all of us. There
Speaker 2: is music for all of us. There's a genre, there's
Speaker 2: an artist, there's a song for all of us. And
Speaker 2: praise God, I'm looking forward to heaven. I am looking
Speaker 2: forward to heaven because, oh my goodness, what a day
Speaker 2: of rejoicing that will be. Pedro are going to shift
Speaker 2: gears again, and you've got a text, You've got a
Speaker 2: song that you'd like to share with us again. So
Speaker 2: I'm handing it over to you.
Speaker 5: TEXTN song A song.
Speaker 2: I thought you said you had a text. Okay, never
Speaker 2: mind a song.
Speaker 5: I do have a text, but it doesn't really coincide
Speaker 5: with the song.
Speaker 2: No worries whichever one do the song because I'm gonna
Speaker 2: cueue that next, and then we'll talk about the text.
Speaker 2: We'll talk about our favorite texts in facts and maybe
Speaker 2: it's well, we'll throw that out to our listeners. And
Speaker 2: here's an interesting one. If you were going desert island
Speaker 2: style desert Island discs, and I'm going to throw in
Speaker 2: this question. If you were stuck on a desert island,
Speaker 2: which one of our Hall of faiths? Which Bible character
Speaker 2: would you like to be there with you? How about
Speaker 2: that question? Just to throw something in the mix. Who
Speaker 2: would you like to be there with you on that
Speaker 2: desert island? And why? I've got my favorite, but it
Speaker 2: was my question, So I'll leave you guys to ponder
Speaker 2: that one once we listen to the song. But Pedro,
Speaker 2: your next selection is Jonathan Nelson Jesus I Love You.
Speaker 2: Why is that?
Speaker 5: Because it's in the title Jesus I Love You, And
Speaker 5: you know we don't say it enough. We have a
Speaker 5: tendency hold our tongues and haul our praise and haul
Speaker 5: our our thoughts and stuff. But the song I heard
Speaker 5: about the song when Tara and Denise Shepherd they were
Speaker 5: singing for the conference. I can't I can't remember. It
Speaker 5: was like a can It was a meeting about three
Speaker 5: four years ago, and this was like the theme song
Speaker 5: that they had, And Tara played this song so much,
Speaker 5: I mean she pusted played it a hundred times, and
Speaker 5: I just learned to love I just it just grew
Speaker 5: on me where I just loved this song because it
Speaker 5: just taught about how he's in the words he says,
Speaker 5: I'm returning my love to you. You know you love
Speaker 5: me first, and now returning my love to you. You know,
Speaker 5: this is my offering back to you God that since
Speaker 5: you loved me so much, I'm returning my love back
Speaker 5: to you. So I just always just like that song,
Speaker 5: like it for that reason, and I just like the
Speaker 5: way it's arranged that makes Yeah. I just like the
Speaker 5: way that is put together.
Speaker 2: Yeah. And you may have a little bit of a
Speaker 2: different perspective because Tara sings, because you kind of know
Speaker 2: the mechanics of a song and everything else you may
Speaker 2: have a did not take because it.
Speaker 5: Does make sense. Yeah I do, I can. I actually
Speaker 5: like tone and stuff like that. But yeah, I think
Speaker 5: you're right because I like I like when they cosino
Speaker 5: what's that word where they modulate? Okay, I like when
Speaker 5: they go up and then they go up and then
Speaker 5: they go up. I like songs like that. I like
Speaker 5: songs where I like songs with the sopranos strong. I
Speaker 5: like those those hard hitting songs you know, like boom,
Speaker 5: you know, like I like that. So yeah, maybe because
Speaker 5: of Tower. Yeah I never told him I like that
Speaker 5: to you just said that.
Speaker 2: Okay, it's top talent soprano, right, what's yes?
Speaker 6: Yes?
Speaker 2: Okay, all right, see it makes sense now the penny stopped.
Speaker 2: All right, Let's let's hear that one by Jonathan Nelson

Speaker 2: back to back, I will play C C Winans and Andrew.

Speaker 2: bit about why. So first we've got Jonathan, then some

Speaker 2: one of your favorites, then let us know. Goodness of God.
Speaker 2: CEC Winelands, And that's one that's come through to you
Speaker 2: as a favorite. As soon as the details.
Speaker 3: Said a really popular song, I was just kind of
Speaker 3: looking up to some of thing. You know, why why
Speaker 3: was this song so popular? And interestingly and I forget
Speaker 3: this actually a lot of people would know CEC's version,
Speaker 3: but it was actually a Betel Music song and by
Speaker 3: lady palled Jen Johnson, and she was saying that through
Speaker 3: behind that it was inspired by her process of her
Speaker 3: adopting her fourth child, and she'd been sort of singing
Speaker 3: impromptu in her phone while she was driving and you know, really,
Speaker 3: you know, really thinking about the faithfulness and kindness of God.
Speaker 3: And it developed from there, and subsequently loads of artists
Speaker 3: have done a version of it because there are lots
Speaker 3: out there. Cecy's always been a favorite, so I guess,
Speaker 3: you know, she's very very popular. But she can say,
Speaker 3: I'm asking this is my sister, Samantha. It's one of
Speaker 3: her favorite songs, and she just says, you know, she
Speaker 3: loves a message behind the song, re minds us about
Speaker 3: being faithful and how can God, you know, have how
Speaker 3: God's and about how God's love is and his goodness
Speaker 3: never ends even if we're going through those difficult times.
Speaker 3: I mean, the lyrics are very straightforward. It's you know
Speaker 3: what it's saying and stuff. And I know she sang
Speaker 3: it several times as well, you know, either by herself
Speaker 3: or you know, I've sang I think I've signed with
Speaker 3: her as well. I think I've sang I've signed this
Speaker 3: a few times as well. Saddenly a popular one, but
Speaker 3: I know it's also a favorite of our mums, our
Speaker 3: mum as well, so it's definitely and you know, it
Speaker 3: really does speak to we've been talking about just how
Speaker 3: great God is, and you know, the power of music
Speaker 3: has that way. I've been able to articulate sometimes our feelings,
Speaker 3: I thoughts can bring us closer to Him and just
Speaker 3: really Tom and some like this, it's quite it feels
Speaker 3: quite unforgettable, you know, we we kind of you know
Speaker 3: it well enough. You've probably sung the lyrics, so it's
Speaker 3: you know, it's a good way to kind of as
Speaker 3: a good reminder. And I think you know, anytime you
Speaker 3: put someone like this, you are instantly uplifted, you know.
Speaker 3: And it's our kind of I suppose in some ways
Speaker 3: almost singing that that's our message to him as well
Speaker 3: as our recognition of, you know, just how much we
Speaker 3: love God as much as me say, as much as
Speaker 3: we can ever love him as much as He loves us.
Speaker 3: But you know, even for those dark times, he's there
Speaker 3: for us. You know, he calls us, we know as
Speaker 3: a father, we know him as a friend. You know,
Speaker 3: it's ever faithful. And the bit that I love in
Speaker 3: this song, which kind of I'm I'm quite a visual person,
Speaker 3: and I realize there's a text that says about God
Speaker 3: upholding you in his righteous right hand. So the lyric
Speaker 3: works said about you know you're running after us. You
Speaker 3: know your goodness is running after me. It's running after me,
Speaker 3: and I kind of think, you know, despite sometimes we
Speaker 3: might be running from God or running. We may not
Speaker 3: see God's goodness at the time due to Whatever's going
Speaker 3: on for us. But despite that, God is still there.
Speaker 3: He's not going to just leave us when times get tough.
Speaker 3: You know he's there. He's going to be you know,
Speaker 3: whether it's a whisper in your ear or you know,
Speaker 3: I said, a visual God is running after us. You
Speaker 3: need to run after us because but he does, and
Speaker 3: it's just yeah, so yeah, so that's a good person.
Speaker 3: Definite favorite I think of everybody. So but again you know,
Speaker 3: obviously a story behind that as well.
Speaker 2: I love the lyrics. You're very right. I love you Lord,
Speaker 2: or your mercy never fails me. All my days have
Speaker 2: been held in your hands. From the moment that I
Speaker 2: wake up until I lay my head, I will sing
Speaker 2: of the good mess of God.
Speaker 3: Wow, if you were kind of to think about you
Speaker 3: thought about that from you know, the moment you wake up. Indeed,
Speaker 3: that kind of may happen throughout your day. Sometimes we're
Speaker 3: so not aware of well, we might have been saved
Speaker 3: from something dangerous happening, or you know, we see some
Speaker 3: of these things that we see, Like recently, I've been
Speaker 3: noticing the birds as lots of birds always in the garden.
Speaker 3: You know, those little bits of nature that remind us
Speaker 3: of you know, God's creation, all those things that happen
Speaker 3: throughout your day that you may not whether you're taking
Speaker 3: a note or not. There's so many things that can
Speaker 3: remind you, you know, until you know you go to
Speaker 3: sleep again, you know, and then he wakes you up
Speaker 3: and you think, okay, I've got another opportunity. Yes, so yeah,
Speaker 3: so many messages there as well. I think this song
Speaker 3: kind of really encapsulates that really really well.
Speaker 2: Well, well, I know, it is a popular song, it is.
Speaker 2: It is one that's requested. I mean a number of
Speaker 2: times I've done Saturday night Pray and it's come through
Speaker 2: goodness of God. And like you said, there's so many
Speaker 2: versions of it, so many artists, secular artists even have
Speaker 2: covered the track. And I walk about London on my
Speaker 2: way to the station, et cetera. There are lots of buskers.
Speaker 2: I mean, it's just so popular and so pulling. There's
Speaker 2: a lady by the name of Harmony. She is usually
Speaker 2: on Oxford Street somewhere and a lot of us will
Speaker 2: know her. She sings gospel music. She's been on the news,
Speaker 2: et cetera. Maybe not for the right reasons, she's been
Speaker 2: you know, they're trying to shut her down, et cetera,
Speaker 2: and et cetera. But when she sings that song, the crowds,
Speaker 2: the crowds that will just surround or any song. I mean,
Speaker 2: she's she's a beautiful singer, and she ministers. Not everyone
Speaker 2: who sings ministers. You can you get the ministry of
Speaker 2: the song when she delivers it and the crowds, the
Speaker 2: crying that you know, it's it's just very very moving
Speaker 2: and very poignant. And yeah, Cissy, Cissy Winans is one
Speaker 2: of the best. And so when she puts her voice
Speaker 2: to a track and you know it's gold, it's gold.
Speaker 6: Right.
Speaker 2: Enough about that could go on for days. Petro, Petro
Speaker 2: you there, Pedro, Yes, I am, yes, he is you ladies,
Speaker 2: Wrap it up and wrap it up, moving, moving up.
Speaker 2: The song that I would like to q next is
Speaker 2: one of Tara's favorite. Tell us again what it is
Speaker 2: and let me see if I can find it.
Speaker 5: Really host. His Eyes on the Sparrow was sung about
Speaker 5: many songs by many artists, Yes, Lauren Hill, a couple
Speaker 5: of other artists, those only t I can think of.
Speaker 5: But yeah, Winnie Houston, his eye is on the Sparrow.
Speaker 2: Hmmm, I'm not sure. I have Whitney's version and on it.
Speaker 2: I shall play another and then we can either see
Speaker 2: if we find it come back or or or not,
Speaker 2: depending on our time. But why do you know why
Speaker 2: Tara loves this one?
Speaker 43: What?
Speaker 2: What's what's her? What's the story?
Speaker 5: I guess I will say because his not really she's
Speaker 5: my wife and I know very well, but I would
Speaker 5: have to venture. And yes, if you liked this song,
Speaker 5: hold on, let me think.
Speaker 2: Are you listening? Petro petrol out? Tell you what?
Speaker 16: Let's play?
Speaker 2: Let's play.
Speaker 5: It talks about not being I know why because I'm
Speaker 5: thinking of the song. Yeah, Okay, she's been singing a
Speaker 5: song she's since she's been a child. Is a song
Speaker 5: that it says, you know, say me because because she's
Speaker 5: singer so and this is how I thing taught, you know,
Speaker 5: I actually do know. Yes, she's a singing she's been
Speaker 5: singing since she's been a child, and this song talks
Speaker 5: about I sing because I'm happy. I sing because I'm free,
Speaker 5: And I think what you just said the other day,
Speaker 5: I think ta when she sings, and this is me
Speaker 5: and her husband talking. But I felt this before I
Speaker 5: even met her, or when I first heard her sing,
Speaker 5: and I didn't know her that well. When she sings,
Speaker 5: you can feel the pain that she has, or you
Speaker 5: can feel like you said, you can feel it, Yes,
Speaker 5: you feel when she sings. She sings with her heart.
Speaker 5: She sings with her emotions. So when this song is
Speaker 5: about you know, don't let your heart be troubled. You know,
Speaker 5: he's always watching over me, you know. So when she
Speaker 5: sings this song that she loves, she's talking about herself.
Speaker 5: She's singing about herself in the song, and that's why
Speaker 5: she loves it. So I had, yeah, that's why she
Speaker 5: loves the song because it's just the words and the
Speaker 5: meaning that.
Speaker 2: It has his eyes on the spar And like she.
Speaker 5: Said, she's been singing this song since since she's been
Speaker 5: a child. Her mother made her singing so much. She's
Speaker 5: texting me, she said, it's one of my singing signature
Speaker 5: songs I sing And like I said, she's been singing
Speaker 5: the song. She's just since she was a child. So yeah,
Speaker 5: and we're talking singing is like four years old.
Speaker 2: Yes, and I've heard I've heard Tara's mom and Tara's
Speaker 2: sister throw down on Facebook as well. Oh my goodness,
Speaker 2: oh my I can oh. Talent, talent runs deep, really
Speaker 2: really really beautiful that she.
Speaker 5: Likes this all because it's just the words and what
Speaker 5: it does and how it is. A is A is
Speaker 5: what she is. I know that for a facture and
Speaker 5: other people have come up to her and said that
Speaker 5: to her, like they can feel, Yeah, she can feel.
Speaker 5: They can feel it in her when she's singing it.
Speaker 5: So that's why she that's why she likes this song.
Speaker 2: I'm just lovely, all right. I've got this version here.
Speaker 2: We're bringing back Lauren Hell. It was also done in
Speaker 2: the movie.
Speaker 5: To get upset.
Speaker 2: Lauren Hill and Tanya Blount. His eye is on the sparrow.
Speaker 5: Yes, I love it.
Speaker 19: Why should.
Speaker 11: Discoot?
Speaker 16: Why shoot the shellos?
Speaker 20: Why should my heart Gord feel lonely.
Speaker 16: And long for heaven and home?
Speaker 23: When she's a scene.
Speaker 6: My portion.
Speaker 13: Ustan frame.
Speaker 4: It is.
Speaker 16: He he's a he's on the spare.
Speaker 10: And I know.
Speaker 16: He watches over.
Speaker 8: Me.
Speaker 16: He's is on the space.
Speaker 6: And don know.
Speaker 19: He watches.
Speaker 27: Because Suppy, I see.
Speaker 16: Because for me, he is all the spot.
Speaker 21: And I know.
Speaker 16: He watches me, watches me.
Speaker 3: His a.
Speaker 5: Is o.
Speaker 6: The span.
Speaker 10: And I know.
Speaker 2: He watching.
Speaker 16: I know he watching he because.
Speaker 18: Mamy, I say, because.
Speaker 16: He's the span.
Speaker 6: And I know.

Speaker 20: You genie.
Speaker 9: He just be wach me.
Speaker 6: He wa.
Speaker 5: Im sorry.
Speaker 15: Yeah.
Speaker 5: So Also I just realized something and listening to that
Speaker 5: version that my wife brought to my attention before I
Speaker 5: this in the harmony in duo, her sister, being a
Speaker 5: twin was the low end and my wife was the
Speaker 5: high end. And they used to sing this song as
Speaker 5: four year olds and a five year old and their
Speaker 5: mother had and they did it just like this. And
Speaker 5: because they sang for so long, their harmony and I'm
Speaker 5: just saying this because it's the truth, but their harmony
Speaker 5: was just on point. Because they had they twins, they
Speaker 5: had a connection that you can't you can't think, and
Speaker 5: their harmony was they just blew it out the water
Speaker 5: because they they just they knew which other one, which
Speaker 5: Adron was going, even when the other one didn't know
Speaker 5: where they was going, they just you know. And that's
Speaker 5: why Todd Lux loved the song so much too, because
Speaker 5: it's a song that she sang with her sister so
Speaker 5: many times. I think she even told me she's won
Speaker 5: a talent show singing this song. So I think that's why.
Speaker 5: That's why she loved the song a lot too. And
Speaker 5: it's for that reason because it's a connection between her
Speaker 5: and her sister and that bond that even to this
Speaker 5: day they still have. And that's why I hope we
Speaker 5: can get her sister overhead one day, them together and
Speaker 5: have them sing and yeah, yeah, it's gonna be yeah,
Speaker 5: because you said you heard us sing on Facebook, but
Speaker 5: you have to hear him singing person.
Speaker 2: You've said this up now, it has to happen.
Speaker 5: Now, we're trying to get them, We're trying to get
Speaker 5: assists over here like to visit, so we get us
Speaker 5: ashead to visit. We definitely will be doing that because yeah,
Speaker 5: because I haven't sing together on the long time. I
Speaker 5: forgot that because when I met tar they were still
Speaker 5: singing together, but not like this, and Twas was singing
Speaker 5: it by herself, so I forgot that they sang this
Speaker 5: as teenagers. All from child to teenagers to adulthood. They
Speaker 5: were singing this song together. So that's why she loves
Speaker 5: this song.
Speaker 3: So much, beautiful song, because it's.
Speaker 5: Just a harmony of it. Like you said, you like
Speaker 5: you love those songs that you know just has that
Speaker 5: harmony and you know just that that sink. It sinks,
Speaker 5: you know.
Speaker 2: So yeah, perfect, Well, we're running out of time, so
Speaker 2: I'm gonna throw that question out at you and Petro Will.
Speaker 2: We're gonna just wait patiently till you set that all
Speaker 2: up so that Tara and her sister, Yeah, well you
Speaker 2: heard it here first talking point exclusive. So I'm just
Speaker 2: gonna throw it whilst we've got two minutes. We're gonna
Speaker 2: wrap up with a prayer and then I'm gonna end
Speaker 2: with a song and a favorite that's come through just now.
Speaker 2: But I did throw a question out to you guys,
Speaker 2: put you on the spot, and I wanted to know
Speaker 2: who you would love to be stuck on a desert
Speaker 2: island with, and we're talking about Hall of Faithers. Who
Speaker 2: would you choose if you could choose, I'm gonna go first,
Speaker 2: give you some more time to think about it, or
Speaker 2: maybe just make sure mine's mine's in and I'm done
Speaker 2: with I thought of Joseph. I would really want to
Speaker 2: sit at his feet. He had such an amazing story,
Speaker 2: you know froms as they say, from the prison, from
Speaker 2: the pit to the palace and all of the dynamics
Speaker 2: all the way through. And in fact, we discussed that
Speaker 2: little bit in Balam and we're going to be bringing
Speaker 2: that program live or not life, but bringing that program
Speaker 2: on ear. We've recorded it and we're going to bring
Speaker 2: it on ear. But his journey was so convoluted, and
Speaker 2: it had all the dynamics of it, from favoritism to abuse,
Speaker 2: to this to the other, being abused, being accused of
Speaker 2: something that he didn't do, ended up in the prison,
Speaker 2: was forgotten in the prison. It's just such a story,
Speaker 2: like so many of them in any case. But I
Speaker 2: would love to be with him and just to hear
Speaker 2: him talk about how he stood fast, he kept his
Speaker 2: faith through all of that, and how God brought him
Speaker 2: through all of that and in the end it was
Speaker 2: for a purpose, because I think sometimes we forget that
Speaker 2: when we're going through it, and how much God's positioning,
Speaker 2: positioning us in the midst of it. And for me,
Speaker 2: for me, that is an important lesson to learn. We
Speaker 2: spoke about Joseph in from the context of moving from
Speaker 2: trauma to triumph, and it's a story that we can
Speaker 2: all take from because there is so many lessons to
Speaker 2: learn in that. But what a conversation that would be,
Speaker 2: What a conversation that would be keep us entertained until
Speaker 2: we were rescued? What about you?
Speaker 35: And you?
Speaker 6: Who are you thinking?
Speaker 2: Got a couple of names.
Speaker 3: Going lacking my brains, and I just think most of
Speaker 3: the Bible cats the Bible would be you know, like
Speaker 3: you said, keeping us entertained with stories for days and
Speaker 3: days until we were rescued. So I see, I'm finally
Speaker 3: quite a cool to choose. But my mind worked to
Speaker 3: kind of two people. I think I'm going to go
Speaker 3: with my second one, though my first one actually was
Speaker 3: thinking to some like Moses, because you know, he's got
Speaker 3: a lot of stories and I'd love to have just known,
Speaker 3: you know, just what it would have been like to
Speaker 3: see that Red Sea party, or like, wow.
Speaker 5: I don't want to know what he thought about if
Speaker 5: he wanted to smack somebody.
Speaker 3: I mean, yeah, you know when he came down and
Speaker 3: he said, yeah, yeah, he'd be a good one. I think,
Speaker 3: but I want to go to Paul, mainly because Paul
Speaker 3: had such a journey, Like you're talking about a journey
Speaker 3: when you think about where Paul started. He was one
Speaker 3: who hated what he ended up really continuing and starting,
Speaker 3: and you know, they say that it's something, you know,
Speaker 3: looking into Paul's life and what he did for Christianity,
Speaker 3: I guess, and how much he preached. He was a writer,
Speaker 3: so he's way of articulating the word, sharing the gospel.
Speaker 3: You know, he went he went through a whole transformation,
Speaker 3: So I think, you know, from someone who kind of
Speaker 3: was persecuting the very same people that he became, you know,
Speaker 3: that transmission is just phenomenal. So I think, you know,
Speaker 3: just kind of you know, seeing how things are growing.
Speaker 3: He obviously had the passion, the zeal, you know, the
Speaker 3: people that he influenced, the people that he worked with.
Speaker 3: So I think, yeah, I think he'd be a great
Speaker 3: person to have a conversation with.
Speaker 2: Some of the greatest writings they would say in.
Speaker 3: That and you know, think about how much he wrote
Speaker 3: and the messaging, you know. Yeah, so I just yees,
Speaker 3: So I kind of think I would love to have
Speaker 3: a chat with him. Spend some time, because I'm sure
Speaker 3: I have a lot to learn. You know, I think
Speaker 3: any character Bible, so many of them.
Speaker 2: Noah, Joe, Oh goodness. We could go on for days,
Speaker 2: but you don't. You share yours and then you pind
Speaker 2: us off with the prayer.
Speaker 5: All right? Well, I was like, like Angela, I actually
Speaker 5: thought the Saul and Paul like told to Paul, I
Speaker 5: was like, nah, And then I was thinking of David,
Speaker 5: And then I told you, guys off, I was thinking
Speaker 5: of Enoch because he walked with Godden. I wouldn't want
Speaker 5: to know how did he do that. Then I was like, well,
Speaker 5: he's not on the island because he's in heaven, so
Speaker 5: I can't use that one. So you know, you know,
Speaker 5: so I went with Peter because my name is Pedro
Speaker 5: and the English version of my name is Peter. And
Speaker 5: the reason I picked Peter's because Peter was like us.
Speaker 5: Peter was well, he was like me. I'm imposive, he
Speaker 5: was outspoken, he always had something to say. He was
Speaker 5: a fisherman, he was a hard worker, you know. And
Speaker 5: the thing about but the thing about Peter made him great.
Speaker 5: We're not great, Well, think about Peter. It was good
Speaker 5: is that through all of that he still let God
Speaker 5: work through him, like he allowed Jesus to correct them.
Speaker 5: His ego was not big enough that he didn't let
Speaker 5: you correct you know, he would not let Jesus correct them,
Speaker 5: you know. And then through that God had the patience
Speaker 5: and grace and showed him, you know that even though
Speaker 5: he was flawed that he was, he would still be
Speaker 5: a child of God. And so I just like Peter
Speaker 5: for that, because you know, we as a person, as
Speaker 5: a male, me personally, you know, I just no matter
Speaker 5: what I say, no matter what I do, I know
Speaker 5: God would still have my back, not whatever I say,
Speaker 5: whatever I.
Speaker 35: Do, but.
Speaker 5: Through misgrace, right my sins can be saved, can be
Speaker 5: washed away through his blood and through his grace and
Speaker 5: his mercy. And no matter what, even if I am outspoken,
Speaker 5: God still loves me. Even if I can be impulsive sometimes,
Speaker 5: you know, God will still love me. God still loves me,
Speaker 5: so he us know exactly. So it's the same New York.
Speaker 5: Paul and Cardinals sit the Nine Jesus three times, and
Speaker 5: we do that all the time. When we don't get
Speaker 5: what we want. We start the nine guide all up
Speaker 5: and down and the you know and Jesus still love them.
Speaker 5: So that's why I like Peter for that reason.
Speaker 2: A man well said, I think that leads us nicely
Speaker 2: into our closing prayer, and then I'll leave you with
Speaker 2: a song of choice from one of ouristas. Pleasure you
Speaker 2: want to close us out, please, it was like pushing
Speaker 2: me out.
Speaker 5: I have any Father, We thank you for another talking point.

Speaker 5: fast that we can go another two. Indeed, we ask
