[Discoveries] 06-27-08 Fishers of men -- Matthew 4:19

[Inspiration in Your Inbox]

/*"Come, follow Me," Jesus said, "and I will make you fishers of men." 
-- Matthew 4:19*/

Jesus is so efficient. In His very call, He has already given His first 
lesson. If we want to win people, if we want to set people free, we must 
enter their world and speak their language.

Why do we know almost nothing about the first 30 years of Jesus' life? 
Because He invested that time immersing Himself in our world, learning 
our language. He wasn't drawing attention to Himself.

Who are the most powerful people in the Kingdom? Those who listen well. 
They may be invisible to us, but they are not invisible to God.

When we hang out with Jesus, we learn His ways. We begin to understand 
what He values. People are drawn to us because the caring, listening 
heart of Jesus is revealed in us.

Be encouraged!
Dwight
