Ok great. So why do we act like we're alone in out lives? Especially as Christians!
The preacher at our church camp compared our churches as bobsledding teams. There's the driver and the break man who sit in the front and back of the sleds. Those are definitely important jobs. If you don't steer, you'll crash. And if you don't break, you'll crash.
Then there are the two middle guys. Once the sled is moving, they just lean in the direction of the turn. They're the support. But their main job is pushing. They hold on to the sled, and they push as hard as they can. They keep the sled moving.
That's our job. We're pushers. We're to stand behind our brothers and sisters, and PUSH as hard as we can. We're to encourage them, lead them, and simply be there for them.
As part of a church who completely backs the idea of pushing, I can tell you how rewarding it is. It's incredible to know that so many others are there for you, and are praying for you.
And it's great to know that a prayer can make a difference. That you can support someone else. It's awesome.
But the pushers aren't invisible; you can see them.
So when you are pushing for someone, let them know!
And don't be afraid to ask for a little push every now and again.
Pushers can make all the difference. Make sure that you let other know that they're not in this alone. =]
