Real Discipleship starts in our hearts! We must first and foremost be convinced that Jesus Christ is Lord and Savior. Dying for us and our sins. We must believe that and if that is what we believe we must realize the importance of this belief! Sometimes I think we think of our Christianity like I think of the Buffalo Bills. I love the Buffalo Bills, especially during football season. I cheer them on and am a fan win or lose. I love to watch the games and really get into it. But during the week before the game I busy myself with my own personal activities. I am not permanently always ever thinking about the Bills. I have other things that preoccupy me. My life. My everyday activities. My own interests.
Isn't that how you would describe most Christians. Sunday morning disciples who in panic emergencies put on their Sunday best for a short time and then back to the everyday life of busy me?
If we are the church and we are supposed to be committed to Jesus Christ as His disciples, are we not that 24/7? Should not every thought, imagination, act, work and play be captured by Him?
Can we ever really become Real Disciples walking through this life thinking of God only Sunday to Sunday?
Discipleship...must be a 24/7 activity alive with the knowledge of Jesus Christ, who He is and what He has done for us. The requirements of a full faith follower..? A faith that sustains us, gives life to us and others that is kind, caring loving and sharing...just as Christ did for us!
