The Life Gauges have a priority

  1. HUMILITY | Worship God

  2. RESPONSIBILITY | Attach to Jesus

  3. ACCLIMATION | Live from the Kingdom

  4. IMITATION | Love the world

  5. MISSION | Persuade others

The Life Gauges have a priority. Worship supports the weight of all the others. Ministry is supported by all the others. In Matthew 4:19, Jesus says “Come follow me and I will make you fishers of men”. His command is not “Come be fishers of men”. His command is “Come follow me.”

As we encounter him,
He forms us,
And we express.

For a lifetime, our greatest concern must be our posture of worship and our connection to Jesus. Only then can we have confidence in our spiritual formation and ministry expression.
