Dedicated To?
Don't ever give up. Don't ever give in. Don't ever stop trying. Don't ever sell out. And if you find yourself succumbing to one of the above for even a brief moment, pick yourself up, brush yourself off, whisper a prayer, and start where you left off. But never, ever, ever give up.
Jesus told his disciples: Go out into the world and share the good news with all of creation… Those that followed Christ understood this process of discipleship - sharing & paying more and more attention to God’s righteousness and less and less attention to themselves. Oh how we can mess this up, self so gets in the way. Think back to Christ’s eleven disciples. They took the command of birthing disciples seriously. They made it their life’s mission. According to tradition, all but one of them (John) was killed for their refusals to stop proclaiming the truth that: Jesus was the Anointed. This hodgepodge of ‘never give up’ followers totally devoted their lives, and ultimately their deaths, to the proclamation of the creed: Christ has died, Christ has risen and Christ will come again. What have you dedicated your life to announcing to the world?
