Welcome to 15 Minutes in the Word with New York Times best-selling author Joyce Meyer.

On today's program, Joyce will be teaching from her series Unleashing God's Wisdom. On any given day,

there can be multiple decisions, all of them needing answers. Whether it's one big decision

or many small daily choices, each of us face these dilemmas

in life and it can be overwhelming to confront them alone.

But there is hope.

God has the answers and in this series Joyce will help teach how to receive God's wisdom

and guidance for every single day.

Now here's Joyce with today's series Unleashing God's Wisdom.

Well, I'm going to tell you tonight happened about 38 years ago.

So I guess Dave and I've been married maybe about seven years and something like that.

And I still remember we were standing in the bedroom of the first house that we owned and we had these mirrored closet doors and I was getting something

out of the closet and I was smart mouth and Dave about something. He just very calmly in an even

voice tone said, you have just about got me to the point where I can't stand you. And he said,

if things continue the way they are, then I honestly don't know what I'm going to do.

Well, I had a choice to make because up until that time, I'd always blamed everything on Dave.

The way I acted was because I'd been abused and the way I acted was because I was working and trying to be a stay-at-home, you know,

trying to take care of the kids and I had too much to do.

And, you know, Dave played golf on the weekends, and I did this and this and that, and he didn't

this and this and this, and that. But I could hear the seriousness in his voice. It was kind of like

a warning. And, you know, we get a lot of warnings in our life from the Holy Spirit, but we're very good at ignoring them.

You know, if your back's been hurting for a year, that's a warning.
