WORKING FOR BANANAS
One of the men on The Navigators staff is a Jamaican. Some years ago, he worked for a banana company near his home town of Kingston, in Jamaica. He was doing so well in the company that one day one of the executives invited him into his office to discuss his future. After assessing the young man’s potential, the executive said, ‘You have a great future with our company, with excellent prospects for rapid promotion. But we are looking for committed men. If you are going to be a success, I want you to know that you will have to give your life in exchange for bananas.’ The young man thought about it for a few moments and decided that he could not sign away his life for bananas. Lordship involves giving Jesus Christ the number one place above all the possible “bananas” in your life. From Disciples Are Made Not Born, Walter Henrichsen
