It’s hard to watch someone you love go through a painful experience. And yet, because you love them, you want to be by their side! And that’s a good analogy for the work of ministry in the Body of Christ. Pastor Mike Fabarez challenges us to labor with Christ in building his church.
You can know something about a person, their biography, greatest achievements, famous sayings...but still be a stranger to them. Real relationships require something more. Presence. Pursuit. A genuine willingness to close the distance.
If you want to pursue a deeper relationship with God, be sure to request the book The Pursuit of God by A. W. Tozer.
