An American F-15E weapons systems officer using the call sign “Bravo” detailed his harrowing 50-hour survival and rescue after being shot down over Iran in an exclusive interview on the season premiere of “60 Minutes”.
Norah O’Donnell kept asking him if he had hope, if he thought the military would rescue him, or if he thought of capture by the enemy. Every time, the answer was that those things were not in his mind. His training was, “What’s the next step or what is the goal from this spot and set of circumstances?”
“He attributed his survival to his relationship with God. He also credited his great training, the years of consistent military research, and the sacrifices of those willing to give everything for their fellow man. “He didn’t claim to be a one-man band.
The Apostle Paul had the same attitude. Many times he expressed a thankful attitude for the contribution of others.
Philippians 1:3
I thank my God upon every remembrance of you, always in every prayer of mine making request for you all with joy, for your fellowship in the gospel from the first day until now,
I also do that for the many of you that supply the air beneath my wings.
Give your attitude some consideration.
