Mentoring
I went to the Men Meeting the Challenge conference on Saturday and was challenged about a number of things. it was a real pleasure to be there even thou it was a long day. do we have a Paul in our life? do we have a Barnabas in our life? and do we have a timothy in our life? was one question that was given to us. Paul - someone we are mentored by. more often than not someone that is older than us not just in age but in spiritualality. is there someone that keeps you accountable and helps you grow as a Christian? Barnabas - is there someone in your life that is about the same age as well as spiritual age that keeps you accountable and that you keep accountable? someone you can lean on to support you as you walk together in faith. Timothy - Is there someone who you are mentoring? someone younger than you both in Age and Spiritual walk. is there someone you are not just saying read your bible! Pray! but showing them how it is done? someone that you are encouraging to grow as a Christian as they start out in their faith? This is a simple model for a healthy growth as a Christian. If we are being feed we need to use that feeding to feed others, we need to encourage our peers to keep walking in faith by example. the other thing that i was challenged about which ties in here as well is: What Legacy are you leaving behind? Money? Houses? Friendship? Love? Christ's impact on your life? God bless Cameron
