At our discipleship training last week a young woman in our church who is a Nurse Practitioner had a great thought that went along with the lessons we were walking through. One of the mantras at the hospital she works at is, See One, Do One, Teach One.
I have been witness to hundreds of blood draws at hospitals as a Pastor. I have to say a few of them were the, "do one." But, I love this concept as it applies to Christianity.
See another Christian pray, witness, encourage, serve, love, teach, study, raise their kids, tithe.
Do what they did.
Teach someone else what you just did.
Christians think that they have to have all the perfect conditions before they can do or teach something. I am not promoting sloppy, but if we always wait for perfect conditions, we will wait forever! I think we have been so conditioned to "follow God's peace," that we really are "taking the path of least resistance." If it is difficult, it must not be God.
Start applying this to your Christian experience today. See One, Do One, Teach One.
