Last week the person
that was discussed was Ambrose now this week his disciple is Augustine or
Aurelius Augustious. Augustine was a bishop of Hippo and he served as a bishop
there until his death. Augustine was one of the greatest leaders of the early
Christian Church. His writings had a strong influence on medieval religious
thoughts. Also his teaching also apparent in Martin Luther, John Calvin and
other protestant formers.
Consistency is really
important in a ministry. Augustine ministered in Hippo as a bishop and he
served there for the rest of his life. Before they endure in the ministry or
the calling of God to their life. It is an encouragement to us to endure the
ministry that God has given us. Like the life of Augustine.
Graduation is in hand
and the next step is work and ministry. I have a tendency to procrastinate in
the ministry and in work. Like Augustine he was consistent in his calling and
he served until his death. His commitment and consistency is really significant
in my life. My prayer to God is that, “Help me Lord to be consistent and
persevere in the ministry that you prepared before me.”
