'Live for the Lord': Senator Josh Hawley Shares Wisdom With Gen-Z

[00:00:00] You know, the Lord could work directly, [00:00:01] and he does. But he chooses almost [00:00:03] always to work through means. And you're [00:00:05] the means. [00:00:07] You're the means. Somebody's got to [00:00:09] preach. Somebody's got to go take the [00:00:11] good news to those who don't know it. [00:00:13] Somebody's got to go to court and defend [00:00:14] it. Somebody's got to take the vision of [00:00:17] the kingdom into the p into public life, [00:00:19] in the public sphere. Somebody's got to [00:00:20] raise families. You've got to do that. [00:00:22] The Lord's his intention to give [00:00:25] blessing to this nation and to move this [00:00:28] nation into its destiny is going to [00:00:30] depend on you and your ability, your [00:00:32] willingness to serve him. He's got [00:00:34] things to do through you that this [00:00:36] country has not yet seen yet. So my [00:00:39] encouragement to you is live for that [00:00:42] vision. [00:00:43] Don't live for your career. What a [00:00:45] terrible waste of your life. Don't live [00:00:47] for money. Money is the worst goal. Hey, [00:00:49] you're all all smart. like you can you [00:00:51] can take care of yourself. Nobody in [00:00:52] here needs to worry about money. Don't [00:00:54] live for money. Don't live for a career. [00:00:56] Don't live for the applause of people. [00:00:57] Believe me, that will come and go. Don't [00:01:00] live for any of that. Live for the Lord [00:01:02] and live for what he is doing. Be part [00:01:04] of something that will last for [00:01:06] eternity. You have the opportunity to do [00:01:07] that. The Lord is inviting you into it. [00:01:09] That's why he's given you the skills he [00:01:10] has. That's why he's placed you where he [00:01:12] has. You weren't born at a random time. [00:01:14] You were born for this time. You weren't [00:01:16] born in a random place. You were born in [00:01:18] the place the Lord put you. and the [00:01:20] family that he puts you. He has a [00:01:22] destiny for you and through you to other [00:01:24] people. Embrace it. That's my [00:01:26] encouragement to you. There is nothing [00:01:27] more exciting than that. And I think [00:01:29] there's no more exciting time to have [00:01:30] been alive than now. I think we're on [00:01:32] the verge of one of the great revivals [00:01:33] in American history. I really do. Maybe [00:01:36] the greatest. But what will happen, the [00:01:39] extent of what the Lord does, I think [00:01:41] will depend in part on what you do and [00:01:44] how you respond to him. So, let's go out [00:01:47] there and give it our all for him. Guys, [00:01:49] thank you so much for having us.
