We live in a society that needs leadership, guidance and strategies to reach our goals or accomplish deadlines. The strength and quality of the leader will determine the outcome of the finished product and one’s attitude.
I had the privilege of attending a leadership conference; I listened to the speaker and observed others as he spoke about being humble, caring and fair. It was quite apparent that he was a Christian without any comment from him about his faith.
It brought to my mind our greatest leader, Jesus Christ. He led with compassion, understanding and love and two thousand years later we are still following his commands and directions.
It gives great testimony to the power of a great, loving and caring leader. We lead and direct people daily and it is up to us to be a leader that is aligned with God’s mercy and grace. That encompasses listening to others, allowing others to grow and to trust.
No matter the circumstance we have an opportunity to lead by how we behave through a difficult situation or our attitude as we struggle with life challenges. Let’s lead our families, friends and co-workers with the leadership of Jesus.
Let’s emulate God’s kindness, be gracious in our words and show empathy to those in need. We have a responsibility to everyone within our circle of life as well as society…Let’s walk God’s walk and be a beacon to others.
Romans 15:1-2 We who are strong ought to bear with the failings of the weak and not to please ourselves. Each of us should please his neighbor for his good, to build him up.
As we continue to live and work with family, friends and co-workers let’s encourage support and inspire so each person reaches the goals God has set in place. Continue to follow His path and praise His name.
Smiles & Blessings
