And I'd be like, okay, I'm going to sit over here on the corner.

And I, again, this is one of my faults, one of my many faults.

I have to be reminded, oh, it's time to help.

It's time to get up off your rear and contribute something.

But here is St.

Paul who doesn't have to be reminded and he gets bitten by a viper as he's seeing that people need help and he's helping them.

I hope that that makes sense.

I don't know.

It's just one of those little points that I think it sticks out because being a Christian isn't always heroic moments, right?

Being a Christian is having the attitude of a servant.

Paul talks about that all of the time, having the attitude of a servant.

And clearly, here he is living what he preaches.

And again, it's one thing to say it.

It's another thing to do it.

And clearly here, Paul isn't just working miracles with the Maltese people.

He's also building fires, gathering sticks.

And I think that probably points more to his character than anything else.

Maybe just because I'm sensitive.

about that myself, of the ways in which I fail.

Anyways, Paul contributes.
