Mentorship

Mentorship. I crave it. What a cool way to grow, learning by others experience. Yesterday I had a great opportunity to meet with a woman of God. She has years of experience in the corporate world, a mother of 6, an previous youth pastor, and now a college and career minister. A wealth of wisdom she has...literally, it would have been foolish to not get to know her.

She said something that really stuck with me, though it was an off-handed remark. In my own words, she said, confusion in our life, especially spiritually, gives Satan a foothold. . God is not and will never be a God of confusion. Truth needs no other validation than itself. Yet I let things like shaky circumstances or my feelings be what validates truth --> which in turn brings confusion! Exactly how Satan gets that foothold. Then we wonder what our future should be, or if we heard accurately from the Lord, and we let the seed of truth (things we know God spoke to us, the Word of God, or his characteristic) die because truth has not been validated by means that were never meant to validate it!

Truth is truth...no questions asked. You may have hard circumstances or crazy feelings, but though all things around you fall, if you have a relationship with Jesus Christ, you are on firm foundation...believe TRUTH!
