4. Clarify who is your ultimate mentor (& your understanding of that)

Mentoring Young (@heart) Men [part 4 of 21 (or 321)

Ask God to be your chief, teacher, mentor, father, re-creator,… take on your identity as a child of God. Only move forward if you are convinced that he is willing and able to do his good work in you and through you. Then your main task will be to listen to him, and anyone he shares his job of "godding" with.

[As l learn from him, I start to see that in YHWH's books, though "godding" means "ruling", it is tied together with "loving", the best or fullest way of seeing God, is another step on from Abraham's true description of YHWH as: "the judge of all the Earth". It is the way Jesus taught his disciples/ mentees/ "children" to pray: "Our father" [the role of judge may not (in most people's minds) include fathering, but the role of father includes judging).]
