I had a young man calling several years ago while I was in Peru and he said: "Brother Washer, I want to come down to Peru. I just want to give my life away down there. I just want to come and work with you. I just want to give my life away!" I said: "How are you in your studies? How many hours a day do you study the word of God?" He said: "Well, that's not really my strong point." I said: "Well, how are you in intercessory prayer. How many hours a day do you pray?" He said: "Well, that's not...I just want to give my life away!". And I said: [b]"Young man, there's nobody in Peru who needs your life. They need God![/b] And if you're gonna come down here as a missionary you need to be able to open up your mouth and tell them about God."[b]Paul Washer[/b]
