So then, they are no longer two but one flesh. Therefore what God has joined together, let not man separate. - Matthew 19:6

Hi, everyone.

2

Welcome back to another

episode of I Can So He Can.

3

I am here with not another

episode of the Sound Mind series.

4

As I mentioned last week, we were

going to start Revelation And while

5

I don't think really many people care

about what's going on in my life, um,

6

I really did want to share it anyway,

and just a little bit of, like, overhead

7

details because you can't hold back,

sometimes in things that you learn

8

and things that you grow from in life.

9

And I re- really, really felt, in

my heart today specifically, that

10

this is what I should be recording

about and not about Revelation.

11

Now, that's not to say that I have

not been working on the Sound Mind

12

series, uh, the Book of Revelation.

13

I promised you guys that that's

what we were going to do because

14

I did the book of Jude last week.

15

And to show you guys that I am not

kidding and I was going to record

16

Revelation, I even started taking notes.

17

Like, I have my Bible obviously here,

and as always, New King James Version.

18

There's no funny business when

it comes to what I read from.

19

I read strictly from the Bible,

and I can show you, as always,

20

all my little notes on here.

21

See all these little notes?

22

This is chapter one.

23

I don't know why I'm showing you guys.

24

I know you believe me, but this

is, like, part of, uh, chapter

25

two going into chapter three.

26

Look at all those, like,

little things there.

27

Like, it's a lot.

28

But nonetheless, um, it is a lot of

information just in chapter one and

29

chapter two that I am getting from it.

30

Um, it's not to say that it's so crazy

that you won't understand it, but I read

31

the Bible now in a very particular way,

and when I am reading something that

32

has a lot of prophetic-type text, like

the Book of Revelation, I definitely

33

want to know that I am in the zone and

I am understanding, and that I fully

34

comprehend and have a grasp on, um,

what it is that it's talking about.

35

Um, and like I said, like, I even

have pages of notes and stuff

36

that I've been learning from.

37

Again, I'm just…

38

This is literally, like, a breakdown,

like, verse by verse what questions

39

that I had and, and things like that.

40

So I am very, very excited

to share this with you guys.

41

I will be recording it soon,

but like I said, today I

42

wanted to share my revelation.

43

And to be precise, I'm not trying

to be, like, funny and make fun of

44

the Book of Revelation by no means.

45

I even looked up the meaning of the word

revelation just to be sure, and it says

46

that a revelation is a surprising and

previously unknown fact, especially one

47

that is made known in a dramatic way.

48

Obviously, um, another definition

of it is the divine or supernatural

49

disclosure to humans of something

relating to human existence or the world.

50

But I am definitely using my revelation

in a fact that I'm sharing in a dramatic

51

way, and to me, this is very dramatic.

52

Like, why not dedicate an entire

episode to this little, um, unknown,

53

now soon to be known, fact of my life?

54

But anyway, um, as you can

tell, this is all unscripted.

55

Um, but anyway, let me get to the point.

56

Um, so that you guys know, if you have

heard a few of my past episodes, you

57

will hear that I was previously married.

58

Um, there's a lot of, like, you know, um,

stuff that were discussed with my best

59

friend and I in some very early episodes.

60

Um- So if you guys wanna dive

into some of those, that's great.

61

Not having to do specifically,

like, with the marriage, but

62

just, you know, surrounding our

life and, you know, at that time.

63

However, current day, um, that is,

you know, very much in the past,

64

and I am extremely, extremely happy.

65

I'm extremely happy.

66

I feel very blessed.

67

I feel like I have grown just so much in

the past few months, not just spiritually,

68

'cause I feel like that has been a

very long ongoing process for me, uh,

69

the past two years, and it will

continue to be because, you know, in

70

terms of, you know, some people, I

may be a baby Christian, whatever.

71

I don't even care about that anymore.

72

But- I have matured, I feel, in my

humble opinion, and please hear me.

73

I really say that, like, humbly.

74

I'm not, like, being like,

"Oh, my God, I'm so mature."

75

Anyway, my point is that I feel

that I have matured so much because

76

I have received so much, so much,

um, critique for decisions in life.

77

And in a way, I want to compare this

very lightly and very subtly, um, to

78

persecution of people and their faith.

79

And not only did I receive, um,

critiques and, you know, judgment and

80

ugly words from people very close to

me regarding my faith when I started

81

going to church, but even now in recent

months, um, I have received a lot of

82

critique from especially family, um,

regarding my life and, and that's okay.

83

We are going to deal with things

like this in life, and believe me,

84

whoever is watching, I know you

guys have been going through trials.

85

Maybe not the trials

that I have gone through.

86

Maybe your trials are worse than mine.

87

Um, so I do still think I am very blessed.

88

I would like to, um, implore you guys

to please analyze your life and the

89

things that you do have over the things

that you don't have, um, because there's

90

always someone who is worse off, uh,

for lack of a better word, um, with

91

the things that they don't have and

whatever place they are in their life.

92

But to come to my happy news, I am now

remarried, and I know that you've heard

93

his name, David, in several episodes.

94

Um, but we did marry on June 3rd,

which is, like, two days ago.

95

Um, we knew it was gonna happen.

96

Uh, like, honestly, we knew it from

the very beginning , like, from when he

97

and I met, um, which we met through his

sister, which is a very, very good friend

98

of mine, and now she's stuck with me.

99

She's my sister.

100

Um, which Dagmara does her

lives on TikTok in Spanish, um,

101

and someti- well, Spanglish.

102

Sometimes it goes in and out, but mostly

in Spanish reading, um, a daily proverb.

103

And, you know, just in support,

I always jumped on, and honestly

104

because I was also, um, starting

to read the Word a lot more.

105

So I do credit her, um, for how

much I started reading the Word.

106

Um, and it was because she did it

daily, and she was very faithful, and

107

she still continues to do her, um, uh,

108

That's what she calls it.

109

Um, basically a proverb a

day, um, keeps you in wisdom.

110

I don't know how to, like, say it in,

like, a Funny, catchy way in English.

111

It doesn't translate the same, but

essentially that's what it means.

112

Um, so anyway, to not continue to

ramble, um, David and I met there,

113

started a friendship, and Lord behold,

he lived in a whole other state.

114

I lived here in Florida.

115

We went through just stresses of,

like, how we were going to see

116

each other, hours and hours just

on the phone and talking and…

117

But we just kinda knew.

118

Like, we just kinda knew that, like,

we were it for each other somehow.

119

Um, and it's funny, in my eyes,

in my mind, how the Lord works,

120

that everything in my life

changed when he came into my life.

121

And it wasn't because he came into my

life, it just, the domino effect of

122

different things in my family and, um,

in my personal life just, everything just

123

kind of, like, collapsed in a positive

way because other things were flourishing.

124

And I say that to say that it doesn't

matter how much you think that sometimes

125

things may be falling apart, you

have to trust in God, and you have to

126

trust in what you know that you feel

the Lord is speaking to you about and

127

He is showing you and revealing to

you, um, because He's preparing you.

128

He's preparing things, and He's

preparing you for the things that He has.

129

And I thought I was being obedient in

my previous marriage, but the reality

130

is, and really understanding now, um,

is that I wasn't properly listening.

131

I, first of all, shouldn't

have been married.

132

Whatever, neither here nor there, right?

133

But, um, I wasn't being obedient.

134

I was mistaking things that I thought

were from the Lord and really weren't.

135

Um, so I've come a long

way since that moment.

136

But when I finally listened, when

I finally chose to put things in my

137

life that were going to be positive

for me and my children, um, before

138

anyone else, everything changed.

139

Everything changed and my

life is completely different.

140

I know that, um, people who are close to

me are like, "Uh, girl, are you okay?"

141

Like, "What's going on?"

142

But yeah, I'm okay.

143

And no, you don't need

to know what's going on.

144

And that's okay because my life

is in the hands of my Lord.

145

And what I decide is between

now, me, David, and the Lord.

146

That's it, as easy as that.

147

Um, and people should respect that.

148

But I know, I know from very, very

149

Personal experience with my own, um,

blood that people are always gonna

150

have something to say, and people are

always going to have something to share.

151

And at the end of the day, it should

not affect you because it's your

152

life, and the will of the Lord is

going to happen one way or another.

153

Come hell or high water, He is going

to get you where you have to be.

154

And the more you go against the grain

and listen to people around you, the

155

more things you're gonna topple over.

156

Um, and even if you go against the

grain, sometimes your decision is

157

going to topple the things that

you've been, like, holding onto.

158

So believe me, something's going to

happen before you have that breakthrough,

159

before you receive that blessing.

160

Um, anyway, my encouragement to you is,

guys, just first of all, please pray.

161

Please be in the Word.

162

Um, if it convicts you that you're doing

something wrong, um, then you should

163

probably stop doing what you're doing.

164

Um, you should make that decision

and be firm about that decision,

165

um, even if it, even if it has

to do with family that you love.

166

Like, unfortunately, you know,

people have made their mistakes.

167

People have done their lives, and

we just have to continue to do ours

168

as best as possible, and all while

glorifying God, um, or, you know,

169

trying to glorify God as best as we can.

170

So that's just my point with that.

171

Um, and I wanted to share, um,

because, like, how I had mentioned

172

David and I met on Dagmara's Live,

so it only seemed fitting that we

173

shared the news yesterday on her Live.

174

And of course, I'm … Even if

it doesn't seem like I'm horrible

175

with my words, I really am.

176

I don't ramble as much or I make

much more sense, rather, here on

177

my podcast because I'm technically

talking to myself when I record.

178

But when I'm put on the spot in front of

people, I'm not a people person, and I

179

fumble my words, like, left and right.

180

But he's much better

At expressing himself.

181

And this is just a little snippet,

which you can see I don't have,

182

like, my podcast stuff behind me.

183

But I'm gonna play the little

snippet of his announcement about our

184

marriage yesterday on Dagmara's Live.

185

And before I play it, please, please,

please go and follow her, especially

186

if you speak Spanish or if you have

family members who speak Spanish.

187

Um, e- even if you're not a follower

of Christ, listening to Proverbs and

188

listening to the wisdom that the Lord

left us in the Proverbs is something

189

that we can all relate to and use.

190

So Dagmara4, the number four,

Jesus, and that's in YouTube and

191

on TikTok, even on Instagram.

192

But without further ado, I'm

gonna play that little snippet

193

of the TikTok yesterday.

194

Bueno, mientras tantos.

195

Hera, ¿quieres

196

hablar tú?

197

¿Decir algo tú?

198

David, do you want to say anything?

199

¿Dar la información?

200

You want to give information?

201

Yes, um, I can since, you know, since

someone's over there with a little

202

bit of a nervous twitch over there.

203

Um, so I just wanna announce, it's

been my privilege and my pleasure,

204

to take Sarai as my beautiful bride.

205

As of yesterday, we got married yesterday.

206

And, I am just so blessed that

the Lord sent her, in my life.

207

And, my duty and my res- my responsibility

as a man of God is to cherish her,

208

protect her, love her, love her

children, protect her children- Yes,

209

sure does to my very last breath, and

that's exactly what I intend to do.

210

So, we're married.

211

Congratulations … the

reason why you decided that.

212

That's not me.

213

That- Oh.

214

What did I say?

215

Oh, his coworker started talking

to him, so she muted him.

216

Oh, this is what he thinks about lives.

217

This is why I don't do lives sometimes,

'cause it just, just gets a little crazy.

218

I muted him.

219

Let's see if I said s- … if

I said anything now.

220

Hold on.

221

Sadi, you wanna say anything?

222

There's a reason why I didn't say

anything, 'cause he's so much better.

223

Oh my

224

God.

225

Now, what should I say in Spanish?

226

Pero bueno, I got it here.

227

I don't recall if I said anything

else, but what I do recall saying

228

is that it only seemed fitting that

we made an announcement on her live,

229

to our friends that would watch,

because that's kind of like where he

230

and I met and how he and I started.

231

Like, kinda caught my eye and always

giving each other little googly

232

eyes, like, when she didn't know that

he and I would have conversations

233

and, and talk on, you know, on the

side, like, outside of the lives.

234

Um, but yes, the Lord has really

done a tremendous work in my life-

235

I feel extremely happy and

extremely blessed to have him.

236

I don't know where I would

be um, without him right now.

237

Not to say that I wouldn't have the Lord,

because I would always have Him, but when

238

you go through a lot of things, uh, in

your personal life, there's always the

239

risk of people walking away from the Lord.

240

And I don't think that that may

have happened to me, but then

241

again, you can never say never.

242

what I do know is that he lifts me up.

243

I lift him up.

244

And we're not perfect.

245

We have our little kerfuffles here

and there, whatever you wanna call it.

246

Um, but one thing that we do

know is that there is love.

247

We love each other, and most importantly,

we love God and we love Jesus Christ, and

248

He is at the center of our relationship.

249

And we both feel like the Lord

has very big plans for us.

250

Um, and as a couple, man, let me, let

me say, like, we've just … I feel

251

like we've already gone through so

much, and it's been a very short time.

252

But the Lord made it happen.

253

We're here.

254

We are married.

255

We are glorifying the name of Jesus, and,

um, we're glorifying our God because we

256

are married and we wanted to just be sure

that we were, doing things right, not just

257

because we're checking off a box, because

we do love each other, but anything

258

that we do do from here moving forward,

it has to be in the name of the Lord.

259

I hope and pray that anyone who's

watching this feels some sort of

260

encouragement, not just for their love

life, but for decisions that you do make

261

in your life, always with God at the

forefront, eyes on Him at all times.

262

If you feel and you pray and you really do

receive that response that that decision

263

is right or is wrong, don't do it,

then you have to listen to that because

264

whatever it is, the Lord is making a way

and He is preparing you for what He has.

265

He is preparing His will.

266

He is preparing His will to be,

to be done, to come to life,

267

to come to fruition for you.

268

and you have to have faith in that

because what God says, God does.

269

And I'm so grateful.

270

I'm so grateful that God really

came through for me, um, even when-

271

I gave him a run for his money.

272

I kept doing the opposite for

a long time, but He is faithful

273

and He is good, my friends.

274

So thank you for listening, thank

you for watching, and I will be

275

back next week with the Sound Mind

series in the Book of Revelation.

276

I love you guys.

277

God bless you and take care.
