Day 11 - Disciples

Matthew 10

The sending of the 12 is an important passage to study in the Bible. Jesus carefully selected twelve disciples. These twelve men were not perfect, but they were the right men for the positions. They were sinners, but were willing to repent. They had lives, but were willing to lay them down and follow Christ. They had many things, but were willing to give them away and leave them behind. These men were selfless, willing, and ready for the ministry that God allowed them to be apart of. They acted as servants, and they lived with their hearts open and their lives ready for minstry.

I believe that each person should act as the twelve disciples did. You should be ready at a moments notice, ready to give up your lives to follow Christ. There should be nothing and no one holding you back from a willing life of following God. We are all on this earth for a reason, and we should be working towards fulfilling this reason. I want to be a selfless, ready Christian. Prepared for Jesus Christ to come and take me to a higher place. I want to serve others and share the word of God with all those around me. This should be the goal for all Christians, and not just the twelve disciples.

God, help me be a light to those around me. Thank you for placing me on this earth for a reason. help me to fulfill your will be following this reason and doing as you command me to do. Allow me to have the same heart that the disciples had. Amen.
