Not as much a tip but one thing in prioritizing friendships I like to remind myself ever so often is that Jesus spent a lot of time both in solitude and with his closest friends He loved as hallmarks of ministry on earth. While ministry leadership today tends to be more deep in the weeds with systems and processes or people management. From fishing to feasting, the closest friends of Jesus penned his life accounts, what will our closest friends write about ours?
I love your question about what our closest friends might write about our lives. It’s incredible to think about the fact that Jesus didn’t write the Gospels himself (obviously the Holy Spirit did have a hand in it) but other people, his friends and acquaintances wrote them - and they wrote such beautiful descriptions on the way he approached strangers, enemies and friends. I do hope we can emulate him in that!!
