Denzel Washington is one of the greatest actors of our time, and yet for all the success and acclaim he’s received in his life, he still comes across as down-to-earth, focused on his family and his faith more than fame.

Washington was born to a pastor and a gospel singer, and God has been a big part of his life from day one.

At a recent men’s conference at First Baptist Orlando in Florida, the actor shared what God has been telling him during this stage of life.

“At 66, getting ready to be 67, having just buried my mother, I made a promise to her and to God, not just to do good the right way, but to honor my mother and my father by the way I live my life, the rest of my days on this Earth,” he explained while talking to Pastor A.R. Bernard on Saturday, according to The Christian Post. “I’m here to serve, to help, to provide.”

“In every prayer, all I hear is: ‘Feed my sheep,’” he continued. “That’s what God wants me to do.”
