[1664.90 --> 1666.00] before this conversation.
[1666.68 --> 1667.50] Didn't say much
[1667.50 --> 1667.90] throughout the whole
[1667.90 --> 1668.38] conversation
[1668.38 --> 1669.30] and then at the end
[1669.30 --> 1669.74] he was sitting
[1669.74 --> 1670.32] right beside me
[1670.32 --> 1671.32] he leaned right
[1671.32 --> 1672.12] into my face
[1672.12 --> 1672.80] and he asked me
[1672.80 --> 1673.34] two questions
[1673.34 --> 1673.84] that I will never
[1673.84 --> 1674.14] forget.
[1674.26 --> 1674.98] The first is this
[1674.98 --> 1676.16] how are you going
[1676.16 --> 1676.82] to protect your
[1676.82 --> 1678.48] marriage in ministry
[1678.48 --> 1679.72] and not sacrifice
[1679.72 --> 1680.56] your family
[1680.56 --> 1681.84] on the altar of ministry?
[1682.26 --> 1683.10] Such a good question.
[1683.10 --> 1684.10] The second question
[1684.10 --> 1684.88] I mean picture him
[1684.88 --> 1686.32] eyes wide open
[1686.32 --> 1687.18] face to face
[1687.18 --> 1687.98] he's like breathing
[1687.98 --> 1688.42] on me
[1688.42 --> 1688.86] he said
[1688.86 --> 1689.94] are you praying
[1689.94 --> 1690.66] every day
[1690.66 --> 1692.08] for the infilling
[1692.08 --> 1693.30] power of the Holy Spirit?
[1694.06 --> 1694.90] I'm sitting to look
[1694.90 --> 1695.10] at him
[1695.10 --> 1695.36] I'm like
[1695.36 --> 1696.22] nope
[1696.22 --> 1697.76] but I want to now
[1697.76 --> 1699.92] and from that point
[1699.92 --> 1700.66] I've tried to make
[1700.66 --> 1701.60] a practice of daily
[1701.60 --> 1702.62] praying for the power
[1702.62 --> 1703.10] of the Spirit
[1703.10 --> 1703.68] because I look at
[1703.68 --> 1704.56] this retired pastor
[1704.56 --> 1705.04] and I say
[1705.04 --> 1706.02] I want to finish
[1706.02 --> 1706.52] like him
[1706.52 --> 1707.70] I want to finish
[1707.70 --> 1708.04] well
[1708.04 --> 1708.86] not be tripped up
[1708.86 --> 1709.32] by the old
[1709.32 --> 1709.96] simple nature
[1709.96 --> 1710.66] that's going to come
[1710.66 --> 1711.46] in all sorts of ways
[1711.46 --> 1712.32] for me as a pastor
[1712.32 --> 1713.44] as it does for you
[1713.44 --> 1714.12] in your life
[1714.12 --> 1715.18] and so I pray
[1715.18 --> 1716.34] seeking to do this
[1716.34 --> 1716.90] every day
[1716.90 --> 1718.40] asking for the Spirit
[1718.40 --> 1719.32] of the living God
[1719.32 --> 1720.42] to fill me
[1720.42 --> 1721.30] and transform me
[1721.30 --> 1721.76] so that I can
[1721.76 --> 1722.66] serve him faithfully
[1722.66 --> 1724.36] and the power
[1724.36 --> 1724.94] of the Spirit
[1724.94 --> 1726.32] is available
[1726.32 --> 1728.86] for all of us
[1728.86 --> 1731.54] and so what I want
[1731.54 --> 1732.08] to do now
[1732.08 --> 1732.76] is pray
[1732.76 --> 1734.52] and I've written
[1734.52 --> 1735.50] just a couple points
[1735.50 --> 1736.18] of things I want
[1736.18 --> 1736.76] to pray for
[1736.76 --> 1738.02] and I'm going
[1738.02 --> 1738.28] to leave
[1738.28 --> 1739.36] an extended time
[1739.36 --> 1739.86] for us
[1739.86 --> 1740.66] to bring before
[1740.66 --> 1741.08] the Lord
[1741.08 --> 1742.24] whatever might be
[1742.24 --> 1742.66] going through
[1742.66 --> 1743.18] our hearts
[1743.18 --> 1744.72] perhaps it's conviction
[1744.72 --> 1746.78] about not feeling
[1746.78 --> 1748.00] safe with the Spirit
[1748.00 --> 1749.02] perhaps it's guilt
[1749.02 --> 1749.84] around whatever
[1749.84 --> 1750.78] we don't pray on
[1750.78 --> 1751.76] perhaps it's just
[1751.76 --> 1752.50] a hunger
[1752.50 --> 1753.16] you're feeling
[1753.16 --> 1754.84] pray into those things
[1754.84 --> 1755.32] and then we're going
[1755.32 --> 1756.08] to worship together
[1756.08 --> 1757.24] before we break bread
[1757.24 --> 1759.08] so would you join me
