Let The Spirit Teach

Canon S45, f2.8, 0.3 sec

"Because I cannot boast of announcing the Gospel: I am bound to do it. Woe to me if I do not preach the Gospel! If I preached voluntarily, I could expect my reward, but I have been trusted this office against my will. How can I, then, deserve a reward? In announcing the Gospel, I will do it freely without making use of the rights given to me by the Gospel.

"So, feeling free with everybody, I have become everybody's slave in order to gain a greater number. With people of unformed conscience I acted as if I were sharing their scruples in order to gain those who are still weak. So I made myself all things to all people in order to save, by all possible means, some of them. This I do for the Gospel, so that I too have a share of it."

1 CORINTHIANS 9:16-19, 22-23

"Lord, send me Your Spirit so I may share You with others."
