He Invites

Recently as we have been studying the fundamental We Invite, They Commit, We Follow Up I realized that I have always viewed this fundamental in a very limited way. I have always thought about this topic in terms of teaching investigators or missionaries, and trying to help them to make commitments. As I have thought about this fundamental in a personal way, it struck me that God works with us the same way. He invites us (and always has, and always will) to follow Him, and to make commitments and covenants that are for our ultimate well-being and happiness. He never compels us to do so, but He always follows up with us! One thing I want to do is further examine how this fundamental has worked in my life, and seek to apply those same principles to my own teaching.
