Desperately Seeking Someone

As a Christian college student there are many different challanges lobbed in my direction on a somewhat regular basis, but one of the things that I cannot seem to get over is the challange of discipleship. What I mean by this is the idea of a real personal investment from a mentor to a mentee. One that teaches them how to be more like them, and in doing so be more like Christ. Where has the fundamental of taking people under our wing and mentoring them gone? When recentely asked the question: "Who is someone who has exemplified holy/ambitious leadership in your life?" I was a little stunned. I have always wanted to have solid mentors in my life, but it seems like no one has the time or interest to take the time to really be a mentor. I am not pretending that this is a simple thing to do because it is not, but as our culture continues to teach us to be selfish with our time we need to say that our time is worth sharing. Otherwise when we reach out our matel to hand it to the next generation we will only beable to find a group of people that do not know how to take it up.
