Others
Jesus said they will know you are my disciples by your love for one another. The Apostle Paul said we are to prefer others over ourselves. He wrote that he could only send timothy because he was the only one who cared for others.
Being Christlike is loving others, including our enemies. God so loved the world and Christ the incarnate God, loved the world. Jesus stated: "As the Father has sent me, so send I you!"
I'm not to keep this Gospel of Christ death and resurrection to myself but share it with others.
Others Lord others,
let this my motto be.
Others Lord others
that I might be like thee.

It's a Relationship
Do we have the wrong perception?
"Something is always after my attention. They hound me from the time the alarm sounds off, all the way until I pass out in the evening. Between breakfast, school, work and family demands, I am distracted."
"I know we are to be disciples but people are just in the way. I don't have the time to memorize the scripture or pray. There are crafts or menus to get done for the church activities. How am I going to accomplish great things with and for God with all of these distractions?"
Take a break and rethink.
STOP AND REGROUP
Wait a minute! We are to be intentional but... we are to busy in the culture we live in, we also get to "busy" in our religious activity. It must be more than a list. This is not a world religion but a relationship with God. A personal one. Yes we may have to stop and prioritize our time. I suggest that time of drawing closer to God. The Bible says He then will draw closer to you.
As we move about more in the Spirit, than being list led, we will find it "easier" as we grow and mature in the Lord. We will find ourselves loving to rise and spend that quiet/loud time with God. People will not be seen as in the way. People is where God is leading us to to serve, making disciples, In addition, doing the simple we are actually accomplishing great things with God.
It's about giving God glory, and ourselves as living sacrifices. It may be a difficult place, but not desiring to be anywhere else. The Spirit will empower us to obey and love His Word. We will love His people. We will love His work. The Apostle Paul said that he was compelled by the love Christ!
As we seek first His Kingdom, we will not only love the work of the Lord but also the Lord of the work.
We are to seek Him. God also knows who and where you are. He will meet you there.
