Hey everybody, welcome to another episode of PowerTales Commentary. And thank you to our Star Wars Nation for tuning in once again. So we're going to pick it up today. We got a very special episode for y'all today. Okay, okay. I I love it. Always giving praise and glory to God. I say John Bess, I say when what's some words of encouragement you got for uh some of our younger Star Walk out there?

SPEAKER_00 0:39

First and foremost, always be willing to learn. That's first and foremost. Second, learn yourself. Learn who you are as a person.

SPEAKER_02 0:51

And and excuse me for cutting you all. I say when you when you say know yourself, explain that to our Star Wars.

SPEAKER_00 0:56

Knowing yourself is meaning to me personally who you are as a man of character, integrity, um, positivity, good energy, walking in the true light of God, you know, things of that nature.

SPEAKER_02 1:10

And why is it so important to put good energy out there?

SPEAKER_00 1:14

Because the good energy that you put out into the universe is the good energy that you get back from the universe. The energy that you harbor, you carry around is the type of incidental environment that you're gonna put yourself into.

SPEAKER_02 1:27

Okay, okay. So so today that that leads us to say we're into our topic today, which is which is self-reflection, self-discovery, things of that nature. So, so when it comes to knowing ourselves and and going, discovering self and things, and what are some of the things you you went through on your journey?

SPEAKER_00 1:47

Um, one, I had to I had to slow down and sit and sit down. Sit down, slow down, and start thinking. I was very impulsive. Right impulsive, I would think short time and then go. I had to do some soul searching and get with God and see what God wanted me to do.

SPEAKER_02 2:04

And and and what's that been like for you?

SPEAKER_00 2:06

It's been beautiful. A lovely journey, of course, is ups and downs. We in the flesh, we're walking in the spirit and the flesh, and God is just all spirit, so we got to learn to live in the spirit and walk in the spirit.

SPEAKER_02 2:17

So so when you say living in the flesh and walking in the spirit, can you explain that to our Star Wars?

SPEAKER_00 2:23

Absolutely. Um, as a man of God and a license man of God, the flesh is it's like a spacesuit for an astronaut of our spirit. Our spirit, we are spirit beings, we are light beings. We attract good energy, we are we can put out good energy, and that's how the the look, the love of God operates.

SPEAKER_02 2:42

And I like how you how you put that because, like you say, like like the suit that we're in, the body that we're in, it's just the flesh. It it really carries a bigger purpose, a greater purpose for us. And that's that's what I really like about what you had just said right there. So earlier I heard you saying something about characteristics, and you brought up integrity. Why is integrity so important for you as a man?

SPEAKER_00 3:07

Integrity is very important to me because knowing myself, knowing that I'm doing the right thing even when no one is looking, that's always important. Doing the right thing because guess what? It's always that one person looking, and that's God.

SPEAKER_02 3:21

Absolutely. And we gotta we gotta hold each other as well as ourselves accountable when we're doing these things.

SPEAKER_01 3:28

Okay, when when it comes to your your journey of self-discovery, what what's been one of your toughest weaknesses to battle?

SPEAKER_00 3:37

Honestly, um truly putting on the armor of God and fighting the devil and and why is that? Because sometimes I go up, I go down, I have my little loose rings, um, I have my mental disabilities and you know, things of that nature. So sometimes it can be a more it can be even more harder for a person like me other than someone else.

SPEAKER_01 4:03

So so what's some advice that you would give to your younger self?

SPEAKER_00 4:10

Um, advice I would give to my younger self is slow down. Think before I do everything, think before I say everything, and most importantly, ask God if it's in his will, should I give it?

SPEAKER_02 4:22

I love that you said that because I f I find myself in the same situation, like it it's hard to be mindful and and slow down with that patience to really think carefully think things through and and and consider every possible outcome. You know, sometimes you but you say that that being impulsive, it's just it's just natural, it's just innocent. We gotta we gotta be strong and and overcome those things. Okay, John Beth, I say before we wrap this up, is there anything else some other words that encourage me? You want to get to our Star Wars Nation out there?

SPEAKER_00 4:55

Yes, yes, Star War Nation, always remember that life is 10% what happened to you, 90% how you respond to it. Meaning that life is 10% physical, 90% mental. It's all a part of your brain and thinking and the way how you think things through when you when you're moving.

SPEAKER_02 5:12
