Ephesians 4:12 NASB "for the equipping of the saints for the work of ministry, for the building up of the body of Christ"Sometimes it's about learning how to do it better! Today's Word speaks of equipping and building up! I stood back and let him try to do it by himself rather than doing it by myself. Over the years, I have had the opportunity to work with some young men. Teaching them some of the skills that others had taught me and nothing equips them better than letting them get their hands dirty. It's one thing to read about doing it, watching others do it but the best way to let them learn is to let them get their hands on it and try! Sure, their first attempts can get kind of messy but over time they will learn the skill. Equipping and building up, when it comes to the things of God, we need to teach them but then let them get their hands dirty! Let's not try to do it all by ourselves but allow others to learn and come alongside us! I think that's why Jesus chose 12 to learn and send them out two by two! peace, tom
