Dear Friends,
Discipleship - the calling of Jesus is to follow Him. Our good friend Dave Buehring who's passion is discipleship and equipping the church for this essential calling and mandate - "to go into all the world and make disciples" (Matthew 28:19) gives a great description / definition of following Jesus.
 | | A Call To Discipleship - Part 1 |
Consider this week your calling to follow Jesus in all things, to conform yourself to the identity of Christian and pray for the grace of the Holy Spirit to equip us. A favorite prayer from the Book of Common Prayer p.832
A Prayer of Self-Dedication
Almighty and eternal God, so draw our hearts to thee, so
guide our minds, so fill our imaginations, so control our
wills, that we may be wholly thine, utterly dedicated unto
thee; and then use us, we pray thee, as thou wilt, and always to thy glory and the welfare of thy people; through our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Amen.
May God grant us grace in the journey and may He find us faithful in each moment...
in the mission,
Father Jon+
