Discipleship is Relationship
Have you ever heard anyone who just talks constantly about tennis, business, or anything else? After about fifteen minutes my eyes start to glaze over, my thoughts roam and I start to tune out. You have five minutes and I'm counting! Just joking - on the 'doom' element!
We are so much more than a 'one act' as human beings. Don't be afraid to expand your horizon, in fact that is what God intended for us. Discipleship is a lot like this. We are to go everywhere and simply share.
A hospital, prison, orphanage, earthquake ravaged city, nightclub, nursing home or seminary.
On the street, beach and tennis court.
To the homeless, lepers, students, the sick, the dying, the young and the old.
The Communists, Atheists, Muslims, Buddhists and Hindus.
In a church building to church goers - some of whom are Christians and some whom are not.
How can you be bored from all these interesting situations and people.
- While these are my own stories, hope that you would have your own. If you don't you might question yourself as to why not? They are everywhere for those who seek them!
Some people see God EVERYWHERE; others see Him NOWHERE.
My friend Pastor Joey Bonficaio, Senior Pastor of Victory Christian Fellowship, Manila, Philippines and one of my favorite bloggers wrote last year on this topic titled "Discipleship and Wimbledon".
