"I waited patiently for the Lord; and He inclined to me. And heard my cry. He also brought me up out of a horrible pit.  Out of the miry clay, and set my feet upon a rock, and established my steps.  He has put a new song in my mouth-Praise to our God."      Psalm 40:1-3

"I have become all things to all men, that I might by all means save some."     1 Cor. 9:22

Even though I am free of the demands and expectations of everyone, I have voluntarily become a servant to any and all in order to reach a wide range of people; religious, meticulous moralist, loose living immoralists, the defeated, the demoralized-whoever.  I didn't take on their way of life.  I kept my bearings in Christ-but I entered their world and tried to experience things from their point of view.  I've become just about every sort of servant there is in my attempts to lead those I meet into a God-saved life.  I did all this because of the Message.  I didn't just want to talk about it; I wanted to be in on it!  ~from The Message translation
