CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:

I’ve been reading the Gospel of John and it has led me to reflect on my namesake, Andrew’s, role.  Andrew is never considered one of the “main” disciples and is not mentioned nearly as much in the Gospels or the New Testament as Peter, James, John, or even Judas.  However, the Gospels tell us he did some incredibly important things:

  1. He was the first disciple called by Jesus.
  2. He was a disciple of John the Baptist before John points him to Jesus.
  3. He brought his brother Peter to Jesus.
  4. He was a fisherman with Peter.
  5. He brought the boy with the loaves and fish to Jesus so he could feed the 5,000.
  6. He was the first disciple to claim Jesus was the Messiah.

Through these scattered and limited accounts of Andrew, we can draw a few conclusions:

  1. He was seeking God — already a disciple of John the Baptist
  2. He was a man of work — fisherman
  3. He showed up — likely one of the main reasons he was called first by Jesus; he was there
  4. When he saw the Truth, he spoke it — claiming Jesus was the Messiah
  5. Perhaps most importantly, he brought people to Jesus.  The Gospel of John tells us that he brought both his brother Peter and the boy with the food to Jesus and Jesus worked miracles through them both.

If we could simply do what Andrew did, what awesome legacy could we leave behind?  Seek God, put in the work, be where you need to be, speak the Truth, and bring others to Jesus.
