How to Live a Life of Contentment
During this episode, we are learning how to open our lives up to others and invite God to do the heavy lifting in the process of discipleship.
Today, we’re reflecting on Matthew 18:12 NLT
What do you think? If someone owns a hundred sheep and one of them goes astray, will he not leave the ninety-nine on the mountains and go look for the one that went astray?
Meet Yodit
Yodit Kifle Smith is a daughter, sister, wife, friend to many, and now also the mother of a precious daughter, a role she treasures deeply. She is the founder of Called to the Ones and a writer, as well.
In a society driven by clicks, likes, shares and follows, we are bombarded with messages that insist bigger platforms, larger followings and a wider reach is proof of significance.
When the temptation creeps in to believe that making a difference is only found in what you do for for the masses, remember the significance of the ones who are on your path.
The mission of Called to the Ones is to help you remember the call we’ve all been given to:
See the ones.
Hear the ones.
Know the ones.
Serve the ones.
Love the ones.
This is a call to follow the example that Jesus lived…He always focused on the ones in front of Him instead of the masses. He showed us this beautiful example in the parable of the lost sheep. The great Shepherd left the 99 for the one. This is each of our story.
This is a call to faithfulness and obedience to where God has you NOW…not where you think you should be to make an impact or to be fruitful.
Through mission based apparel, storytelling, teaching and opportunities to serve the ones, Called to the Ones seeks to encourage a generation to not be pressured by society to have to do something BIG to make a difference for the glory of God. We want to inspire them to live boldly and missional right where God has placed them and to be encouraged that it matters for the kingdom of God.
