Hey, what's going on?
My name is Anthony Davis.
Welcome to Serve IT Podcast.
Now, this is episode number three.
I just want to say thank you.
I appreciate you for listening and we'll have more episodes down the line.
With that being said, let's get into the verse of the day.
Finally, I confess all my sins to you and stop trying to hide my guilt.
I said to myself, I will confess my rebellion to the Lord and you forgave me.
All of my guilt is gone.
Now that is Psalms 32 verse five.
No team.
Just don't hide your guilt.
It's easier said than done, but hiding your guilt.
What does that look like?
That looks like not taking responsibility of the issues that you are facing and the way
you're not taking responsibility is finding things to escape to that does not serve God
or you.
What are those things?
Those things are porn, social media, overconsumption of eating, overconsumption of food, I should
say, drinking, alcohol, like all these things that you're using to escape and not face the
problem at hand.
And that impacts us so well and just to think you truly, truly, truly have to give it to
God and because you can't do it by yourself and this leans to the first point is community.
The moment you like, oh man, I'm a lone wolf.
You know, I don't need no pack.
I don't need nobody else.
Man, you're discrediting God and what God is actually doing for you, not you doing for
you and all the opportunities that come.
Man, go ahead and be a part of a community.
Be a part of church Bible study, small groups.
I love it.
I love my small group that I'm a part of.
Be a part of a community that have like interest, whether it's writing or anything that allows
you to progress.
Go on hikes.
Like I love going on hikes.
I love the fact that I can go out, be present with nature and don't have to worry about
a thing.
And I'll just sit there and just talk to God.
Not really sit there.
I will walk and talk to God, but find something healthy.
I mean, workout.
I like working out.
I just started working out again.
I need to work out because I am the heaviest I've been and that's because I've been eating.
I've been allowing myself to not care for myself in that way and it feels so bad and
I feel so trash because I'm the heaviest I've been.
I've been in shape my entire life and these last few years I just, hey, I'll get there
when I get there.
And that's not how it works.
But find things that are healthy.
Find things that allow you to serve others and serve God.
Serve your purpose.
You know, a business that find ways to help volunteer.
I don't know.
Find different ways to heal because I promise you once you start doing that and you become
addicted to those things and not the porn or the eating or the drinking.
Oh man.
Those lessons that God had put up on you.
Those lessons that God put for you that you've been thinking that, oh, you have to be the
special person.
You are the special person.
You just got to be obedient and not try to hide what God already knows.
With that being said, I love y'all.
Let's heal.
Let's get better.
Let's find God.
I hope you all enjoy your day.
Peace.
