Man (smiling): Age does have benefits. (more soberly) One is clarity of thought. (referring to the passing Jesus) There He is. We cry out "Save us!" because only He can.
Daughter (insistently): But from what?
Man (collecting his thoughts): What are a few tyrants compared to eternity? What is the burden of taxes compared to life with God? (pause) This time—this place—These are passing. They are but a breath. (toward Jesus) There. That is what is real. His life. His purpose. There—there is the joy. (pause) Listen to Him, girl. Listen to Him, and you will learn what Jesus will save us from. (script segment from the His Company sketch, There is the Joy)

An excerpt from
Dimensions...

MOSES: Then He stopped me, and with His words I became smaller yet. For God declared that the ground--the dirt and sand and common rock--around that bush was holy--holy because He was there! I suddenly realized that whatever stature I had remaining was nothing next to His. This voice belonged to the God of all eternity, and next to Him I was nothing.

(long pause) Someday people will ask why I obeyed. Someday people will wonder why I didn't just turn away and return to my flocks. I may have a different answer by then--after I've completed the task He's assigned me. But right now--with the smell of His presence still in my nostrils--right now I would answer that I obey because I must. There is no other choice.

(with intensity) He is holy, you see. And I am not. There's room for only one God, and the position has already been filled. And if He selects me to serve Him--in spite of who I am--then. I have no choice but to obey.
