When you make a request to God, you'll can receive a yes, no, or wait. "Wait" is by far the hardest because we are beings of right now and often lack the patience to allow things (and ourselves) to mature at the level where we are ready for where he called us to be. Trusting God is easy but do you trust God's timing enough to wait? The lesson here is that wait often means "not yet" and while many people assume it means to stay still. Waiting opens up the opportunity for growth and self awareness and direction that you don't get standing the same spot. While you're waiting, look around and see the areas where you may need to mature and stay prepared for the opportunity when it does arrive.

Episode Summary

We were invited to speak to a class at Youth Build Inland Empire about podcasting. We instead decided to to tape a live episode with them all as guests so they could experience it themselves. Listen is as we talk to the kids about not feeling ashamed about being a beginner and be okay with early failures. 

For over 40 years, YouthBuild has supported the mission of YouthBuild programs around the world by providing training, technical assistance, information systems, opportunities to promote sustainability, and other expertise to ensure maximum quality and impact. Millions of young adults are too often defined only by their struggles with unemployment, poverty, and crime. Traditionally known as “disenfranchised,” “marginalized,” “disconnected,” and “at risk,” these young people aspire to improve their lives and communities. These young people are typically defined solely by their challenges, not by their potential. They urgently need – and aspire to earn – knowledge, training, and opportunities that lead to long-term professional and personal success.

Hey folks, Trevor DeSaussure here from Lyrics and Lattes to bring you another Hot 16. The past week has been hard for hip-hop. We laid DMX to rest, we lost Black Rob, and we lost Shock G. This is just a reminder that tomorrow is not promised. Do what makes you happy now. That all said, today's lyric is coming from Black Rob, from his song, Star in Da Hood. Ain't nun post-traumatic about it, it's just deep. It's like trying to live out in the suburbs and stay street. Every next level of your life will demand a different version of you. It's called growth, but there are some parts of the past that you need to leave behind you. If you're happy being stuck in the same stage of your life, so be it. But I know a lot of you aren't take certain lessons with you. Take certain people with you, but know when you need to make cuts. Growth and maturity are a key part of life. And after a while, the only thing holding you back from success is you. I've had to do a lot of RIP's lately. One final, one to DMX, an RIP to Black Rob, and an RIP Shock G. On behalf of the entire Lyrics and Lattes team, take care of yourselves everybody.  

Hey folks, Trevor DeSaussure here with Lyrics and Lattes to bring you another Hot 16. I realize this isn't our normal program, but we're working on some really cool stuff in the background. Join us next Monday for our full episode. In the meantime for this episode, we're going to Wale. N****s on they high horse? Cool, I'm investing in gLuUuUuee! Here's the thing folks time and energy are precious. If you're focusing any of those things on someone else and it isn't benefiting you then that's a waste; and the same can be said for anyone doing that to you. Because what they don't see while you're steady building their steady wasting their time, energy, and resources on something that may make them feel good in the moment; but ultimately doesn't get them anywhere. The premise of this lyric is, "Cool, do you." And with that we're out.  

Hey folks, Trevor DeSaussure here again with Lyrics and Lattes to bring you another Hot 16. Today we're going to the late great philosopher, DMX. Ya'll been eating long enough now. Stop being greedy. Let's keep it real partna. Give to the needy. Ribs is touching. So don't make me wait. F**k around and I'm gon' bite you and snatch the plate. This s**t ain't about you bro. The world is so much bigger than you. Legacies aren't built from material things. They're built from people. How do you want to be remembered when your time is up? Be kind to one another. Reach out. Give a helping hand. Because you never know when someone's/ Slipping, I'm falling, I can't get up. Rest in peace DMX.  

Hey, what up folks? It's Trevor DeSaussure here again to bring you, your Hot 16. This week we're going to local DC artist Tr3demark. The beat's so sick, throw you into convulsion. And please don't trip over whatever's broken. Cuz we so lit. Degrees on the steeze so brisk. Used to let them take the wheel breath stinks to let him take the wheel and now I'm riding in Jesus whiiiiiiiip. Please don't trip over whatever's broken. This week we're going to be talking about forgiveness. Not just forgiving others, but forgiving yourself. Look what happened in the past happened in the past. There's nothing you can do about it. It's already done. You're only human and a good 70% of life is us just messing up. The Bible says he without sin cast the first stone. In the Quran it states let them pardon and overlook. In Hinduism, not only do you need to forgive but you need to seek forgiveness. We figure this out across the world. Live, let, and learn. And become a better version of yourself today than what you were yesterday. And the only way you can do that is by making a couple of mistakes.
