Tea Time Tuesday

Oh, how I love my grands. When we are together, my whole heart is given to manifesting God’s reality through our love and friendship.

Every day of my life, I see the world through the same grid—how can I love those in front of me, make the reality of the beauty of Christ a reality? As a seasoned grandmother, I know that it comes with a cost, a life given to serve the kingdom of God.

Jesus didn't meet with his disciples once a week for Bible study and say, "I'll see you next week!" He gave his disciples his whole life. He lived with them, slept with them, traveled with them, lived out a life of godly maturity before their eyes.

Jesus didn't just talk about having a ministry from a broad, tall pulpit with a resounding microphone, while disappearing between sermons. He lived a deeply personal life with words and instruction as well as integrity and generous love demonstrated in each moment of every day. He served and bowed his knee to meet the needs and desires of those He loved. He taught compassion, then he demonstrated it by healing the sick, touching those with leprosy, drinking water with the prostitute, holding and caressing children, feeding the hungry.

Each of us longs to be a part of a great cause, an epoch story. We can exist within the mundane moments of motherhood, marriage, or work longer if we know and understand that somehow it is meaningful to our over-arching life story and heritage. It is a legacy of faith we are passing on, when we daily stoop to serve, patiently giving our energy to meet the needs of others.

But we long to know our lives can make a real difference, that being alive, and making right choices, isn't just about duty, but about a heart-gripping reality that will make a purposeful impact in the lives of others. We hope that ultimately mentoring will transform the life, heart, soul, and mind of the one in whom we are investing for a lifetime, to carry God’s light and love into the dust and chaos of the world where others long to know Him.
