[0:00] Lord, I'm going to trust you.

[0:03] This class will be whatever it is, but

[0:05] he asked me to go and so I went.

[0:09] I just said, Lord, I need to prepare for

[0:11] the class so the class can be wowed

[0:13] today.

[0:15] I missed the whole point of what [music]

[0:17] love is about.

[0:19] Because it's not about this class. It's

[0:22] about someone needing something. They

[0:25] needed me there. I said, "Lord, I'll

[0:28] leave it up to you." the class turns out

[0:29] to be a flop. Well, this is more

[0:32] important.

[0:34] And that's what love is really about.

[0:36] And he takes care of things. And he did.

[0:38] Identify your arena. Name the specific

[0:42] places, your home, your work, your

[0:44] parish, your community where God is

[0:45] calling you to exercise [music] your

[0:46] servant leadership. Then act. Be a

[0:48] leader. The Lord opened up the door. And

[0:50] I said, "Lord, if you'll open up a door,

[0:52] I'll teach.
