Looking at the camera, Robin urged her followers not to listen to that voice. Instead, adopt a positive attitude and have faith. “No more saying ‘it’s never going to change.’ rather you need to say, with the apostle Paul, the same spirit that raised Christ from the dead lives inside of me,” Roberts said.
She went on to say that nothing can keep you from your purpose in life. “No pandemic, no setback, no layoff,” she said. “You know why? Because the pit is not your destiny. Get ready to rise!” After she had a moment to talk to her followers and address what was on her mind, she began to say a prayer thanking God for the ability to get through these setbacks.
