True Leader
Monday, July 27, 2015
Yesterday in worship God shared what a true leader is with me: they are ordinary, useful, helpful, cautious, hard-working, religious, responsible, a representative, and like procedure and protocol.
You will notice that being a visionary is not on the list. Through the religious aspect of leadership, we turn into Jesus who is the visionary component of true leadership. Through his guidance, we are then able to turn out and deliver a plan of action.
God seeks out the hearts of those he chooses to lead. They often learn from their life experiences and then are willing to share what they have learned with others. When we learn we are required to move forward. God engages us through circumstances. He catches our attention to become his hands and feet. God's initiative is to save the sinner through the redemptive blood of Jesus Christ, the True Leader.
