I have a mentor (or what we call at my church, discipler) that definitely keeps me LEGIT! When sharing my walk with her it creates a place of transparency, humbled heart, and self-reflection--- So necessary in my walk with Christ!
I met with my discipler a couple of weeks ago and tons of emotions that I had no clue were in me came pouring out - with just a simple question - I came to realize that I still need to work through some things that I was avoiding.
It through me for a loop that I had all these emotions that i was unaware of in me but having a place to talk on a regular basis is awesome! we may think we have it all together but God knows where we need to be touched on a deeper level!
It's awesome to share this with someone who has your best interest in mind. My discipler is awesome and she is very sincere when she prays with me! Her time is set aside for me and it is evident that she is engaged when we speak.. This is very important when looking for someone to disciple you. Please pray about it.. your best friend may not be a good discipler for you (maybe accountability partner- i'll speak more on this later) Find someone who has endured some stuff, not a rookie Christian who is still struggling with you. This is not to put anyone down but you want to go to someone who has some things figured out so that you can draw from them! God is a great matchmaker when it comes to this-- seek HIM and ask HIM and He will lead you to the right match!
Everyone go and get a discipler --- NOW..
but seriously... DO IT...
