of somebody that says, I need what you have for the sake of somebody
else. That to me, that's what we teach here. The true Christianity is
living for the benefit of others.

There's a measure, there's a measure where we seek God for ourselves,
but then there's a season where we must move beyond that and say, Lord,
even if you don't heal me, I will serve you. Even if this is part of my
life, even if the pains don't go away, I will serve you. I will look
beyond my own need and I will look to the needs of those who are going
to die.

They're going to drown as with Paul in Acts 27. If I don't appear on
that deck, and if I'm not able to thank God for being in this place, and
if I don't have a word in my heart, these people will all die.
