MANY CALLED
FEW CHOSEN
FISHERS OF MEN
WELCOME BACK MY
FRIEND
I trust that
you're waiting patiently to move on to the next step each day.
Your patience in following one step each day, will pay off and you'll
find it much easier to
remember what you've learned.
|
Psalms 40:1
I waited patiently for the LORD; and He inclined unto me, and
heard my cry. |
Nice to have you back
again! Today's step is brief, but very important. It's about
record-keeping. Everyone would agree that if you went to your doctor's
office, it's important that he has YOUR chart while he's treating you,
because things could end up terribly if he mistakenly had someone
else's chart. Or if he wasn't thorough about taking notes, he may
prescribe something that you're allergic to, and you could end up in
worse shape than you were in the first place.
With that in mind,
let's take a look at today's step. Some of Jesus' Apostles were
fishermen, but Jesus told them ...
|
Matthew 4:19
And He saith unto them,
Follow me, and I will make you fishers of men. |
You follow in the
Apostle's footsteps, spreading the Gospel of Christ to others and it's
an important job to do. You're not a medical doctor, but you do care
for the health and well being of people's souls.
Keeping track of your
sheep is a smart thing to do because soon you'll have many sheep, and
it will be difficult to remember every detail of each one's problem(s).
A tiny detail of a sheep's problem that may seem unimportant to you,
may be HUGE to them, and you could lose their confidence if you
forget, so I'm going to show you how to keep records that are
necessary for your own success and the benefit of those you help.
You can use the
method that's easiest for you, whether it's a three ring binder, or a
spiral three subject notebook. You can keep track of one sheep per
subject, or you can keep all your records for one day per page. You
could also copy and paste any conversations you have from the chat
room to Notepad, and later on, hand write them to the separate subject
sections of your binder or notebook so that you're not busy writing
while you're counseling someone with a problem, and you will have all
the information from one person together and available at a glance.
Simply make 4
columns, one for the DATE, one for the sheep's NAME, one
for any COMMENTS you have, and one for the ACTION that
you took in helping them. Your records will be helpful also, if you
ever need help from one of the Team Leaders with a situation that
you're not sure how to handle.

Rachel |
Invite Rachel to Bible
Study. |
I just read the Abraham's
Bosom study, so I sent an e-mail to Rachel and told her to read
it too! |
|

Rachel |
Rachel got a new cat and named
it Abraham. She said she wished she could be more like me. |
Told her she has special gifts
that God gave her too. Sent her to the Am I Called test. |
It's also helpful to
have a set of different colored highlighters for different things. If
you think of something to tell one of your sheep, and you can't get to
a computer, jot it down in the comment column of their chart and
highlight it in yellow.
Then once you get a chance to e-mail your message to them, you can
check it off so you know you've completed it. If there is something
important about a person, you can write it in the comment column and
highlight it in green.
These are only examples. You will create a system that is easiest for
you to follow.
Don't forget, you're
the fishermen of today, and it's important to keep your records, ship
shape!

STEP #13
In order to
complete your step for today you must CHOOSE, to make 10 charts
so that you will be ready when God brings who He wants you to
help to you.
Continuing in EACH step daily
is so very important.
Go back over each step often to
be sure you have not missed anything.
