00:00Oh my God, I'm in so much pain.
00:03Mercy, what pain is this?
00:05I'm feeling labor pains.
00:08Childbirth?
00:09Or how could you forget that you're a man?
00:11Or perhaps you did something you shouldn't have and now you regret it?
00:16You don't understand, my brother.
00:18I really don't understand.
00:20I would vouch for you with my life.
00:22He's always correcting me, talking about holiness, my word, my attitude.
00:26But in the end it's all just talk, right?
00:28My brother, do you remember the apostle Paul?
00:31Of course I remember. What does he have to do with it?
00:34Paul said this.
00:35I am in labor pains until Christ is formed in you.
00:39Wait, so it wasn't a baby?
00:41No, it was the pain of those who evangelize, teach, and care for lives.
00:46I proclaimed the word, walked alongside them, and prayed.
00:48But many heard and were not transformed.
00:52The pain of spiritual childbirth is loving lives and suffering when Christ is not yet growing in them.
00:57Why have I never felt this pain myself?
01:00This pain is only for those who bear spiritual children.
01:03I understood.
01:04I have never evangelized, cared for, or prayed for lives.
01:07I only go to church.
01:08But from today on, I also want to feel labor pains.
01:12And I will do my best.
01:14That's the spirit, my brother.
01:15May God bless us and empower us in this work.
01:18Amen.
