Day 40 of 40 Day Discipleship Walk with Jesus Christ: Join the 10 Million Laborer (Labourer’s) Challenge
*Hurray! We have reached the final day of the 40 day Discipleship process as instructed by the Holy Spirit 41 days ago to the glory of God Almighty! May His name be glorified forever in Jesus name*
I hope and trust that you have been nourished by these processes and taken steps to share with your friends and family. In the next 40 day process in series two, try to recruit at least one person involved in starting out the first 40 day Discipleship process whilst you continue with the second 40 days that provide concrete steps to guide you in the whole process. These two 40 day journeys will help you fulfill the mandate of *”Go make disciples of all nations” (Matthew 28:19) in a simple yet profound process that is life changing and life transforming in scope and impact!
Now the final story in the first series is as follows:
*The Story of Jack and his invention*
In a small village nestled in the rolling hills of the countryside, there lived a young man named Jack. Jack was known throughout the village for his ambitious goals and his determination to achieve them. He was always dreaming up new ideas and setting his sights on the next big thing, but he never quite seemed to finish what he started.
One day, Jack had a brilliant idea for a new invention that he was sure would change the world. He spent every waking moment working on it, pouring all of his time and energy into the project. His friends and family would often try to talk to him, but he was too focused on his work to listen. He barely ate or slept, and he ignored all of his responsibilities in favor of tinkering in his workshop.
Months passed, and Jack’s obsession with his invention only grew stronger. He became increasingly isolated and withdrawn, and his relationships with his loved ones began to suffer. His friends and family tried to reach out to him, but he pushed them away, convinced that he was on the brink of a groundbreaking discovery.
Finally, after a year of non-stop work, Jack completed his invention. He was exhausted and exhilarated, and he couldn’t wait to show the world what he had created. But when he unveiled his invention to the villagers, they were underwhelmed. It was a complex and confusing device that seemed to serve no practical purpose.
Jack was devastated. He had sacrificed so much for his invention, and now it seemed that all of his efforts had been for nothing. He realized that he had been so focused on the end goal that he had forgotten about the importance of the journey. He had neglected his relationships, his health, and his own happiness in pursuit of his dream.
In the end, Jack learned a valuable lesson about the importance of finishing your goals. He realized that the journey is just as important as the destination, and that the relationships and experiences we have along the way are what truly make life worth living. He put aside his invention and focused on rebuilding the relationships he had neglected. He learned to appreciate the small joys in life and to find happiness in the present moment, rather than constantly striving for some future goal.
And so, Jack’s story became a cautionary tale for the villagers, a reminder of the importance of balancing ambition with the things that truly matter in life.

1 Thessalonians 5:11
*Therefore encourage one another and build each other up, just as in fact you are doing.*
Congratulations for finishing these 40 days. Here is the Million Laborer Challenge for you to consider. We want to help 10 million Jesus’ followers in the next 7 years so they can serve God as volunteers. They may do something as simple as helping someone engage the Scriptures. They can encourage someone to grow, and support them in prayer. They can discuss the nurturing relationship questions and share highlights from the Scripture readings throughout the week. They are not experts, just fellow learners. If asked a difficult question they can say, “I don’t know but I can try to find out”. Their own life is an example and a pattern that the others can imitate.
This can be the start of a lifetime of encouraging others. If you don’t know anyone to start with, then keep praying Luke 10:2 for more workers. God will show you who you could invite and together deepen your spiritual journey with Jesus. Series 2 is part of the 10 Million Laborer Challenge. We hope to see you there.
