I brought a message for somebody who's been going through the fire and wondered in their own mind how long.
Why are things like they are?
Some of you have been through enough stress that you should have lost your mind.
Don't think it's strange when things happen to you.
Because the truth of the matter is, every man, every woman, every boy, every girl will go through a time where your faith must.
stand can just stand for every trial there's going to be a glory and if you just stand I know it's hard on you
but if you just stand even up under this pressure you're going if you just stand when you get to the
right place you're going to look back over your shoulder and you're going to see a miracle
Know that you have faith until you're in a good fight.
Real faith is proven in the furnace of affliction, in the time of adversity.
You're stronger than you think you are.
You're tougher than you think you are.
You're more than you think you can.
And very courageous.
You got to have inner strength for this fight.
It's not your outer strength.
It's not by light, nor by power, but by my spirit.
So you gotta have that gut strength and belly strength, that devil-define come hell or high water strength,
that tenacity to take a licket and keep on ticking, that inner strength,
that when I can't do as I would, I'm gonna do as I can.
To the best of resolve, it's the devil come hell or high water, I'm coming out of this.
It may not sound like...
Once you start questioning yourself, you're already lost.
Even if you don't believe, believe.
I gotta believe in me
before anybody else believe in me.
If you're gonna be successful in this game,
you gotta have a dog within you.
You gotta know it's a dog fight
and you gotta go get that fight.
Life ain't gonna be easy.
Ain't nobody gonna hand you nothing.
And so by being committed to everything that I started,
I finished it, it built a certain type of spirit,
it built a certain type of mentality.
And so now I couldn't quit even if I wanted to.
I couldn't stop even if I wanted to.
I had too much sweat equity
in my life and everything that I was,
doing I don't know how I don't know when but I do know that before it's over I'm coming out of this
there may have to be a sequel this take me to expect me to come back expect me
