Hello! I’m Robert Garon and I help people pray, teach them to understand God’s Word, and get them to do God stuff. I make videos about about living boldly and intentionally to live our faith as an active lifestyle.
I need help! Sometimes that's the hardest thing we could say. We don’t like asking for help. Oh I get it! Those of us plagued with this level of ego think about the task or project and aim to get it done with whatever effort we have to give. It’s not that we don’t want to ask others to help us, but we know sometimes that could get complicated or even slow us down so we move forward with our projects on our own so we can anticipate the outcome based on our own ability.
The truth is, it’s good to ask for help. Perhaps we don’t need help. What if there was a different motive, divine intention, and greater agenda altogether by asking for said help. What if asking for help is not necessarily to get the help, but rather to invite others into an environment where two-way discipleship happens.
What if the simple ask for someone to join us into something is for their own spiritual good, and ours, for becoming better disciples of Jesus because of the conversations we would have and the connection we would make with one another during the time of working together on the project? What if helping is always about discipleship? What if everything we do is about discipleship? What if we even considered how to invite others into the menial things we do on a regular basis just for the sake of discipleship? Solomon talked about this. Jesus did this. Apostle Paul did this. What if we did this?
Ecclesiastes 4:9-10 — Two are better than one because they have a good reward for their efforts. For if either falls, his companion can lift him up; but pity the one who falls without another to lift him up.
Mark 3:14 — He appointed twelve, whom he also named apostles, to be with him, to send them out to preach.
2 Timothy 2:2 — What you have heard from me in the presence of many witnesses, commit to faithful men who will be able to teach others also.
1 Corinthians 9:22 — To the weak I became weak, in order to win the weak. I have become all things to all people, so that I may by every possible means save some.
One Sentence Summary: What if asking for help isn't just about getting help, but about inviting others into discipleship through shared experiences, conversations, and connection, just as Jesus, Paul, and Solomon modeled?
