Touch 2500 Tuesday #193, March 30th 2021. What have we learned? I finished watching a police show where a veteran officer was showing the rookie the ropes. This is only the movies, but it's the heart of discipleship. I regularly end these posts with a familiar phrase "Touching lives, Loving people, Making disciples. Discipleship is when the Christians who've been walking with Jesus for some time help those who are new in the faith. You know the tricks of the trade right? Stay in His word, Daily prayer, avoid things and situations that are weak areas. Staying in fellowship with church family and surrounding yourself with Christian brothers and sisters.
Those who are young the faith need us to tell them the secret of getting back up. Repent, return, and progress. When you're new and experience failure, or when you should've known better and also tripped up, it's easy to let pride or shame keep you from returning. Only One has ever walked a flawless walk and His name is Jesus, so get up again.
Never had an opportunity to disciple anyone? There's an easy way to remedy that, share the gospel with someone who does not know Jesus yet, and then do more than just pray with them, walk with them. You need it, they need it.
