mentor

i have a mentor and i wouldnt trade it for the world. i am always encouraged when we meet. it always seems to be the right timing, and the right wisdom for my life. i am so blessed to have someone in my life that pours into me. i am amazed at how many ministers do not have a mentor. there is so much value to having someone in your life but it seems that it is very rare. when people are falling into traps and getting into trouble it should be a priority in every christians life. if you are a minister it should be in your life. you should set up a cycle of being mentored and then mentoring others. then they will continue the cycle. can you imagine the power of a 12th grade guy mentoring a 7th grade guy? or a 45 year old pastor mentoring a 26 year old youth pastor? what about a girl who is a freshman in college pouring her life into a 5th grade girl once a week? what would happen?
