The Divine Mentor

Hey, I have been reading a book called "The Divine Mentor" by Wayne Cordeiro and I have been loving it! I have believed in reading for a long time and also in allowing myself to be mentored through the persons writings, but Wayne takes it to a whole new level. Here are a couple things that I have learned so far:
  1. Life has given us to very effective teachers, one is Wisdom and the other is Consequences.
  2. If we choose Wisdom we can learn how to avoid problems and thereby learn by other people's knowledge and experience.
  3. If we choose Consequences then the personal cost will be sky high and we will learn by our own experience and mistakes.
  4. Just as we have two teachers, we have two pains. They are the pain of Discipline and the pain of Regret.
  5. If we want to learn from some amazing Mentors then open the pages of the Bible and we can find people in all walks and situations of life, that are waiting to mentor you through the situation that you are in.

Don't forget to pray for the weekend service and ask God who you can bring with you. Have a great one
