The world wants to make friends with
other people, with influential people. Christians like to use the
names of famous name preachers, they want to be attached to and
associate with famous names and great people. But that is not what
Jesus called us for. He commanded us to make disciples of HIMSELF,
not to make friends and influence people and build churches. It is
all about Jesus and the Kingdom of God, about knowing Jesus and
following Him, getting our wisdom and guidance from Him.
If we follow Jesus we will be
persecuted, rejected, excluded from worldly people and we have to
cherish HIS PRESENCE, His acceptance and His approval more than
anything else. If you follow Jesus Christ you will often be alone but
you will be with Jesus Christ. It is not about friends and being
accepted by others. It is about our relationship with Jesus Christ
and being pleasing to HIM.
May Jesus bless you.
