A gull came out of nowhere, and lighted on my head—I reached up my hand very gently—I killed him and then we divided him equally among us. We ate every bit, even the little bones. Nothing ever tasted so good.” This gull saved them from starvation. Years later I asked him to tell me the story personally, because it was through this experience that he came to know Christ.

Nuestra segunda necesidad, sin embargo, es de bondad, la cual el Señor también hace posible al enviar al Espíritu Santo a morar dentro de nosotros. Si hemos de vivir como Dios desea que vivamos, si hemos de parecernos más a Cristo, si hemos de viajar sabiamente en nuestra travesía, entonces necesitamos tanto perdón como bondad. Necesitamos la obra del Hijo a favor de nosotros, y necesitamos la obra del Espíritu Santo en nosotros. Al fabuloso regalo del perdón Dios añade la fantástica dádiva del Espíritu Santo.”
