Leadership

If serving is below you, leadership is beyond you. (Anonymous)

When some people are given positions of leadership, it seems to go to their heads. They become proud, arrogant, and demanding. Everyone is expected to serve their needs and follow their directions. More effective leaders, however, have learned that they lead best by serving. Such an attitude attracts followers and encourages them to do their best in serving.

Be shepherds of God’s flock that is under your care, watching over them . . . eager to serve (1 Peter 5:2).
