We should really come to the realization that Christians just don’t have it all figured out.
What we DO know is the One who HAS figured it all out. He may tell us a few things along the way. He may not reveal everything. The thing is this: we follow Christ. And we do it as best we can. Warts and all.
Discipleship and evangelism are all part of the messy process. It’s not some nice and neat package that says, “This is where you make your decision and this is where you begin to work in discipleship.”
It’s a huge mess and we should stop trying to figure out when one stops and another begins. It’s a great journey. Let’s just do it together.
I don’t have all the answers. But I am attached to the Master Teacher. I am his apprentice. I stay with him. I listen to him. I follow his instructions. And my walk gets a bit steadier every day.
As long as I am walking with Christ and walking with others, those I walk with are also following Christ. It just may be at a different distance.
It’s a lifelong process. I don’t have it all figured out. Join me in this journey.
