Today’s Scripture…
James 5:19-20
19 My brothers and sisters, if one of you should wander from the truth and someone should bring that person back, 20 remember this: Whoever turns a sinner from the error of their way will save them from death and cover over a multitude of sins.
Thoughts
Today I met with my students for preplan meetings. Basically, they have a project due and we take time to do check in points to make sure they are on target. Sometimes they totally veer off track and I have to get the back in the right direction. These meetings are time consuming. It usually takes me most of the day to check in with everyone. In the end though, it is so worth it because the students turn in really good projects.
We as Christians should be checking in with others also. We need to see how people are doing. New Christian’s especially need help. It is our duty as mature Christians to guide them and get them back on the right path if they start to veer off.
I know this can be time consuming. We all have so much on our plates already. However, it is so worth the effort. You build strong relationships and let people know you are there for them. Who knows, they may just be your guide someday when you find yourself lost in a desert.
