Mentorship is the ability to guide or instruct someone. We seem to get all we want from the environment through our five senses in this generation, but we can't get all from all that. We are in need of someone close to our environment.
We has Christians must follow the steps of those that are gone before us. Before a man becomes what he is destined to be, he needs two people. God and a mentor. God is important because only those that know their God will do exploit and be strong (Daniel 11:32).
We also need someone to train us. It doesn't matter what that person have, it is what the person can offer. Getting a mentor is in two ways :-consciously like Elisha and unconsciously like Moses and Samuel.
Elisha heard God and forsook everything he ever possess as a large scale mechanized farmer. He went ahead to serve Elijah. When he got the mentoring needed, he knew what he to ask when his master was going because he understood that a servant must be greater than the master after a while. He took a conscious decision to be an apprentice.
Unconsciously Samuel found himself in the house of Eli, due to the vow of the mother. He had no choice and he yielded to the situation he found himself. Moses also left Egypt, got married and found himself a father in law (Jethro) that was a priest and a shepherd (Exodus 3:1).
Not knowing he would be a priest and Shepherd to the children of is real. Unconsciously he learn what he needed to fulfill destiny. It doesn't matter where you find yourself, always seize the opportunity and maximize it.
Everything learned is a tool in the fulfilment of purpose. What you know will guide you, but you only know what you've been taught. How will you be taught if there is no teacher? It all come to a point to fulfill destiny. Get a mentor, have a life; get a future, get a purpose. God has a way of getting you to the right person to mentor you. Be calm because He's in control of your and he has a plan for. God bless you! Amen.
Learning isn't limited to a gathering of people with a tutor, but an experience that leaves a mark of influence. To learn means to gain knowledge or skill by studying, practicing, being taught or experiencing something. A lesson is a section where something is being taught and learned. It, therefore, means that there must be a teacher and a student. Life is a teacher. It teaches anyone who cares to listen and have wisdom. We are in the habit of running each day the same way and the days turn to weeks, weeks to months and later to years. We forget to pause, pay attention to life and absorb wisdom to live. Some of us have experienced but haven't gotten the lessons out of some. Wisdom is not measured by age or level of exposure or experience, but lessons got from our encounter with life. What did you learn as a child, teenager, adult, parent, businessperson, lawyer, pastor, teacher, etc? Whatever you do isn't as important as what are you learning? What will you pa...
