It's a huge responsibility helping and encouraging someone make a connection with God. At times, it's very intimidating. I feel that even Jesus from time to time struggled with it. He even prayed for His disciples that they would be one as He and the Father are one...this to me is an earnest prayer for connection. Jesus needed to show them what it meant to be one(connected)with the Father.Shannonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15247670348191934957noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32498127.post-84846313273743883862006-11-28T09:01:00.000-06:002006-11-28T09:01:00.000-06:00I find your statement about pointing people to the...I find your statement about pointing people to the God of the Bible as very helpful.The Scriptures represent God's Holy Words revealed to humanity, but their purpose is to draw the eyes of humanity toward the God who uttered them, in understanding and truth.Colin A.

If we who support the Scripture as God authorized and inspired "live" out the text in relevance to our culture, I think we'll be well on the way to at least demonstrating how to connect with God. Even Jesus had this task to complete. His utmost task was to show us God through his own words and deeds. He effectively mirrored to the world the very nature of God. We should feel honored to have such a lofty mandate as to show Jesus to the world through how we live out the scriptures.Shannonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15247670348191934957noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32498127.post-11506528727411929172006-11-27T16:09:00.000-06:002006-11-27T16:09:00.000-06:00Shannon,
