So, my new boss (that sounds weird) and I have been conversing back and forth via email and phone. On her last email, she signed it "Your #1 Cheerleader". It meant a lot to me and I've have been thinking about it. I've come to the conclusion that everyone needs to have a #1 cheerleader in their life. In particular, one who is a few steps ahead of you on your faith journey and/or profession of choice, etc. Think about it. Who has got your back and is in your corner like no other? Outside of your parents/spouse, who is your #1 cheerleader? Better yet, outside of their parents/spouse, who are you the #1 cheerleader for?
My next question is how many people can you authentically do that for? In small ways, I tried to be that for three friends today. I think people would say Jesus did it for twelve and we're not Jesus. However, if you look at Jesus' life, I think He did it for a whole lot more than just the disciples - Martha, Mary, woman at the well, Zacchaeus, Nicodemus, etc.
